i start investing and indeed now I am earning and has a big chunk that waiting in my folio once the bull comes.

Earning income from Bitcoin investments? Isn't it true that to generate income from Bitcoin investments, you need to sell your BTC for FIAT currency at a higher price than your purchase price to make a profit?

you misunderstood my post mate, I have earned from my past selling and buying that's why
I am waiting now to see how much i may earn when the bull happens again.

Quote

I believe such occurrences can't happen every day. Despite Bitcoin's volatility, daily price fluctuations can't be relied upon for daily gains. Furthermore, in investing, one can't always be victorious.

the market is going up and down,
how can we expect to occur in daily basis mate , not unless the market is in bullying moment then there will be something like that.

Quote

Income from Bitcoin investments doesn't materialize on a daily basis unless you sell Bitcoin every day.

don't know where that came from , because I did not mentioned that in my whole post mate.

So, I am sitting here thinking about how my first Bitcoin experience was, and I can't remember. Suddenly, I am thinking, how was your first Bitcoin experience? If you remember your first Bitcoin experience so please tell me.

Is there any need to tell you when you too does now even remember yours? At least you would have told us how you get your first bitcoin and how you feel at first and others would fallow suit but this one that you made a blank experience and want others to share theirs with you. I don't think this is a good idea. And as you said to yourself that you can't remember yours,it looks like I have forgotten mine as well but will definitely remember it again because my brain is not use to forget things though it happened sometimes but not frequently. I forget things when I did not store in the long memory.

I think op was nit ready to share his Bitcoin experience that is why he is still eager to ready other people's experience which is cool for me. Not everyone of us have a remarkable or a bad experience so far but there are people that are still yet to gain an experience that would worth reading and listening to. Having q odd Bitcoin experience is one of the adventure that will always make us to ready our bad days when when are holding Bitcoin without any knowledge of ending up losing our holding. The newbies might not understand this much but with time they will understand how it felt and what it takes to have a Bitcoin experience.

Sinbad Mixer: Mix Your BTC Quickly

Quote from: xSkylarx on September 08, 2023, 04:13:49 AM

In gambling, once you've already bet that money, it is already declared that money is lost on you because, mostly, in gambling you'll be losing most of the time because it is a form of entertainment and not an investment or a way to make a living on it.

Investing in Bitcoin is very different from gambling because you have control over it. You can pull out your investment or add more, and it will take more time to gain profit, or if not, you will lose it all. In investing, you have a plan on how to make it successful, unlike in gambling, where the casino owner will take over your funds in no time.

Both are not same things as gambling is originated with more threats whereas in bitcoin investment you can minimize your loss through appropriate investment plan and wait for the appropriate time.

Some people correlate trading with gambling because in trading they shift towards progress step by using their luck in a place of mastery while investment in Bitcoin is very different from that of gambling.

It's been quite some time since I earned my first Bitcoin. It's the result of my efforts in crypto, as well as here on Bitcointalk. Around 2017, I invested my Bitcoin into a specific currency because I believe it will be successful in the long run. The idea was really promising, and I conducted some research, but sadly, the project turned out to be a fraud. That was the first and last time of having Bitcoin. I learned a lot from it, and I'm still hope to return there soon.

These so-called "promising" projects are always taking people's hard-earned money by giving them hopes of great returns in the long or short run and people think that they've got themselves into something amazing and their life is going to become easier after they make this investment while in reality, they are working for their own future instead of their investors and soon enough when they got enough money, they will disappear like thin air.

However, we've all been there and have been victims of such things when we first got into Bitcoin because we didn't have enough knowledge and understanding of how things work and to be honest, at some point as a newbie or a beginner, we used to think that it is easy to earn a lot of money through Bitcoin.

That's the difference between bitcoin and altcoins. In fact, bitcoin was not created as a profit-making project like altcoins, bitcoin is a peer-to-peer currency project that aims to give us freedom from government control. Meanwhile, bitcoin-copying altcoins have created projects aimed at profit, so we should not be surprised to see that most altcoins are scam projects. But thanks to altcoins, we know which projects are worth investing in, and bitcoin is unique.

Not only newbies, but even us, long-time investors, are thinking about making a lot of money from bitcoin. If it weren't for the huge profits that bitcoin can bring, I don't believe many people would still be here today. Investing in bitcoin means we want to make a lot of money, want to make money quickly compared to other traditional assets.

Bitcoin is a new technological development that not many people use. until finally the opportunity arises to make a lot of profit by joining it. However, there are also many people who dream of something beautiful from Bitcoin, but they don't take into account the risks until in the end they get the opposite result. therefore we have to be smart people so we can respond to Bitcoin's movements to be able to follow its price movements, until finally the luck we have planned comes.

I heard first bitcoin in 2014 but that does not my experience started.

as far as I remember my first bitcoin experience back in 2016, a cousin tries to pay me Bitcoin as he has a balance in me but there is no available way as he is far from my place and there is no other way but from bitcoin as the time at the moment is so late night.
he thought me to create a wallet that i can use to cash out directly locally .
that is if my memory serves me right , and that is what I treasured till now.

Each of them of course has their own story for things like the OP asked and wanted to know and I don't have special experience in this matter but what was memorable when I gathered with friends was when I saw the reaction of novice traders if BTC went up, they smiled and when BTC corrects even a little, they immediately say...ooh no, correct again. Yes. I can only smile.

Even though we don't have our own experience, we can also take a lot of experience from other people, which is good for our learning, both positive and negative, which we don't need to follow, such as panic when a slight price correction occurs.
Personally, I don't have many memorable experiences, but I have many friends here who buy Bitcoin so I learn a lot from that.

All the same, you will not be able to participate in all distributions, since this is simply impossible. There is no need to envy those who have made good money. These are just a few who are close to project administrators. Everyone else is content with only small handouts, if there is such a thing.
I came to this conclusion a long time ago when I observed several projects. This is how it works in the crypto world at the moment.

Yes, I've never taken issue with what's currently trending or what might be in vogue tomorrow in the crypto world. It's precisely these dynamics that keep the crypto sphere evolving and vibrant over time. Someone could enter the crypto arena and acquire their first Bitcoin when they're drawn to a particular trend. The more people become acquainted with cryptocurrency, the stronger its network becomes, ensuring its enduring presence in the world.

In fact, I would be pleased to see many people benefiting from the crypto space. It signifies that Bitcoin and cryptocurrency indeed have the potential to foster economic growth for many individuals.

Indeed, the job offerings from faucet companies are no longer worthwhile these days, as the tasks they assign consume a significant amount of my time. Nowadays, many people opt for alternative methods to earn coins, such as participating in airdrops. It appears that a considerable number of individuals are getting their first taste of the cryptocurrency and Bitcoin world through these airdrop campaigns.

While I personally don't frequently partake in airdrop events, I can't help but feel a sense of missing out when I see others sharing the substantial gains they've made from participating in these airdrops.

Regardless of how one embarks on their Bitcoin journey, I still appreciate it as a significant initial step.

No need to waste your precious time on these taps. There are much more profitable topics than collecting several dozen satoshis in a whole day. The only thing that can bring normal earnings from these sites is to recruit a huge army of active referrals, but this will require investment in advertising and a large amount of time. Is it worth it? Everyone decides for themselves.

I'm tired of this method of obtaining crypt. I left this matter forever. I got busy in other ways. At least there was interest, and not the banal boring daily clicking.

Many first used faucets. They paid a lot back then, even if it wasnt a big thing in fiat currency, which was a fascinating entry into Bitcoin. Haven't we seen Bitcoin evolve from a fun faucet reward to a serious financial asset and sometimes a daily transaction? I share your great experiences, although I remember some nerve-wracking transactions that took weeks to confirm. I recall making a simple internet purchase with Bitcoin. The novelty was more important than the practicality back then. Its widespread adoption and use is uplifting.

It bored the crap out of me until I just decided to fuck it and ditch my faucet wallet. The minimum isn't even enough to buy an energy drink I like here in my country, lol.

I won't forget the first time I earned bitcoin.

If I'm not mistaken, it was from the komodo signature campaign, I earned 0.11 Bitcoin (I forgot the exact amount) after I posted 4 months, like about 120 post since that's the minimum post count I guess that's required to get the payment. I was so happy back then, because that's my first time owning a Bitcoin with my own hard work.

Owning bitcoin feels like I'm a different person, in a positive way though.

We all do had our first satisfaction in earning from SCs. Cheesy

I was even just a "Member" rank before but damn it is a lot already when converted here in my local currency.

Strong and candid advice, I must confess. Loads of people consider depressive state ideal a remedy or solution to a problem when in reality, it is just a thief of time.

Imagine putting the time of wailing into productive use and saving up the income, it'll be a matter of time before you realise that the energy you used to feel depressed was your disguised-productive energy coupled with the drive to make it to the top. Save up and invest in Bitcoin when its still low man.

Do you know what I can answer about this question? We are all individuals and each of us has the right to do what he pleases. Well, it’s impossible for everyone to be of the same opinion as to what is the correct process? We need to come to terms with the fact that people are prone to depression after some significant tragic events. Can this condition last for quite a long time? Who will help? Only specialists in this field. But what to do if they don’t have the very funds that made all this happen? How do you like this paradox? Is there a way out? Yes, just go through it personally. How many people succeed in this? I believe that this percentage is not very large.

My first experience in Bitcoin was when I changed location from my place of living looking for a better and legit business to do, while I was introduced to trade on Bitcoin pairs with other Coin, and as well buy some coin and hold for a specific coin that makes me believe more in alt-coins after convert to Bitcoin that gives huge return profits and the coin called Hex Coin.

My first experience with mining was a good one. I used to love firing up different software and making different adjustments to get you the most possible hashrate. Little things you did on your own made a big difference back then. It was cool. My first transaction experience was great as well. I sold a video game code that came with my GPU for a couple BTC and everything went smooth as silk.

All your first and last experiences should be good. And you have done HUGE amount of bitcoin transactions in your life and you donated 50 bitcoins for this forum. You have been involved with Bitcoin for many years and when you mined Bitcoin you had the opportunity to mine a good amount of Bitcoin in a short period of time. But now there is no chance. The amount of electricity required to mine bitcoins now is comparable to the amount of bitcoins that were not mined back then. In all cases, the first mover can get a huge amount out of it, while those who get involved later on don't get much.
