I actually sell my earning to fiat right after I receive it, needs some extra fiat to purchase things . So the extra bitcoin from sig campaign goes to fiat directly since im not a believer

Shame on you Tongue
Why even bother? Not big income, but relevant if you ARE a believer...

Its better for the market value overall vs selling bitcoins direct and i guess when your spend the coins the place who accept them might keep a certain % in bitcoin.  We need to develop more wages paid in bitcoin + merchant & distributors creating a circular economy. 

there is no way a merchant might keep bitcoin, they will trade it to fiat because they will need to restock their goods, and they do need fiat to purchase their necesitty which can be obatin with fiat and not bitcoin

Just like what the title says. Just curious because your actions in part (although not significant) will also determine how many of these coins actually ended up back in the open market? Let's just be honest here because saying and really doing it are two different things. Just want to find out if you are a true advocate or believer in the system because I saw quite a number in the forum who tells about earning through campaigns, hoarding or even buying the coins to help the price, but is it really true? Or you are just there to earn and convert the coins to buy your phone credits and games pass.

For me all my coins are still intact until today

I do not think that amount actually determines the market price. There are only couple hundred of sig campaign users, at best, and the amount we all receive s not sufficient to move the price. No way.

I did mention that clearly in the OP. Like I've said, it's not significant per se but it's more like trying to find out what you guys actually do with the fund. When I read through all the posts it's clear that some of us here sold the coins immediately in order to get quick cash. That won't move the price so much but bear in mind that still means coins getting introduced to the open market.

I don't sell my coins for fiat, I use it as I use all of my bitcoin, whenever I can!

I ordered Pizza again with bitcoin on Sunday, I will be using them in a cafe at the weekend.  The little tops ups are nice, it's like being treated to a meal/coffee once a week.
I pruposely look for the places accepting bitcoin so that I can do this, got to support the community!

I almost never sold my sig earnings because I don't have any need of extra fiat. not that I earn that much, anyway. the most I've earned was 0.13-ish btc


I do buy things with it, however

Same. I don't earn enough and it would be useless to sell such a small amount. I either hold them for if I want to buy some digital goods items or mostly I just gamble with them.

I don't earn much with signature campaigns lately, but I have received a nice amount of 0,x BTC from earlier Primedice signature campaigns.

I have not sold a single Satoshi of them. I stacked a part of these coins, bought some Steam games with another part, traded a small part for altcoins (in order to short-term trade a bit) but lost most of them in an ASIC scam.


That's because you're sticking w/ bitmixer, you can earn ten times more w/ bit-x but I'm not sure if they've got any openings at the moment - tho I could be wrong and you should look into it.
I think most people will be dropped from the bit-x campaign since Marco is working on new campaign stuff to be released in a few weeks. Only the active guys like quickseller and redsn0w will get to stay for the few weeks ( I think)
I see your point but I'm pretty much the most active poster on that situation but Marco hasn't said much to me about any changes. I know he's doin below avatar pics which I'm not interested at this point, simply because my account is way too valuable to me than the extra BTC that is offered for it and I won't scrub my avi for it. Not doing it. If I was entertaining that then I might as well sell this account and any buyers would freakout at the cost at this point. But, I'm always entertaining offers. It's been a long while so that's what you're paying for if that's what you want. The other thing is that I own the Rand thread (which will continue to be notable and a moneymaker via many postings to it that needs to be kept up with more fresh postings during and from Rand's campaign trail = everyday is chock full of free posts if you know where to look and i can give ya the hint for a bonus or in a package, if I were to entertain such a thought) that I keep live so that's up your alley too. Between my posting info and Bit-X,  I am a big dog poster and to get up on my account would mean you'd need to do something similar. Go high, I might take an interest. In the mean time, the posting ops are groovy.

I have earned some BTC7-8 from various signature campaigns in the past 3 years. And I have converted around BTC7 to cash. I am in a very dfficult financial situation right now, else I wouldn't have sold them. My total BTC holdings are around BTC25, and I am thinking about selling at least half of my coins to reduce my bank loans (~$15,000).

I never sell coins. The reason I have bitcoin is because I want bitcoin. My bitcoin is bitcoin my fiat is fiat

Do you spend them at some point or are you simply 'hoarding' them forever? One thing to consider is: You never actually make a profit unless you realize your gains at some point (sell your investment).
yeah of course I spend my coin, my wallet has gone empty many times, its just that I dont need more CAD.

This is mostly true for me as well, though it has dawned on me that if no one uses bitcoin it wont become popular, so I've started to spend a little of it.

The best paying per post signature campaign is DaDice right now if I am not mistaken. So you can theoretically you will earn max 0.13 by posting per week so 52x0.13=0.672BTC per year.

Let me be the one to correct your math:

52 x BTC0.13 = BTC6.76 per year.


But doing calculations like this aren't very accurate long term. In a year, the price can change a lot so im not sure the campaign owners will be nice enough to not lower the BTC payments if price goes too high again.. they should keep it because as of right now it doesn't pay much but yeah.. it is what it is, a small bonus.

Also, this would mean u do not miss a single week and that you post like maniac. No way anyone can keep that pace for a year.

True. Probably no one could keep such 'pace' throughout the entire year.

That being said, the above calculation is for DaDice, Bit-x has no max cap and there are people able to make way over BTC1/month.

Possible price increase is irrelevant, we're talking about current conditions. If the price go up to $1000, the pay-per-post rate would likely decrease, but BTC1 will be over 4x more appealing than currently.

We need a new Willy bot or mass adoption to reach the point when it worth to realize profit Smiley.

it's better not,  would destroy the last small faith that people still have on bitcoin, a steady grow is better, you can spend now bitcoin, don't need to wait for a price to rise, bitcoin was mean to be spent not exchange for fiat
Even though people think this is some of a "rule" I do not agree. If it wasn't for Willy we would have never spiked and would probably still trading at around $100 if not lower.
We wouldn't have so many people coming aboard either.

well the current price is teaching us that the natural raise of the price needs plenty of time, i'm not sure if that without willy, we would still trade at 100 usd, if we would be at current price anyway, we also reached current price in april 2013, this is another proof that willy wasn't needed
