I came across bitcointalk while searching for bitcoin forums where I can post a query related to hardware wallet. Since then there is not a day or two where I don't come to this place. You need to be here to be updated.

One day my brother was busy browsing at bitcointalk website and at the same time busy monitoring the bitcoin chart because he is starting to learn trading by that time. At first, I wasn't that interested. But when he push me to understand well that there is actually a new technology that is existing in this era which you can actually control your own money, it hooked me. I wanted to be part of that advanced technology called, "bitcoin".
 
 By that time, he just said I have to read some threads in bitcointalk forum if I am sincere to learn. Honestly, it is not easy to understand but if have determination, we can fully comprehend bitcoin.
 Now, we are both margin traders and we share some technical analysis with each other. But I must admit, I am very grateful to him. He passes his beliefs about this kind of innovation and the determination to pass it down with our nephews and niece to continue what we believe in is what I am proud of him.
 
 For now, we conduct seminars within the family last December, we explained bitcoin to our family members.
 That's how I have started here.

I found this forum on social media(Twitter maybe) . I got a link to the project's ann thread. But the funny thing is that this project had a Scam Accusations. And the link was on their ann thread.  Grin This is where I got introduced to the forum. I realized I could share my opinion here. I can help others. That day I created an account. I did the first post. And my first post was deleted by moderator. Then I made another one post. That post was not deleted. Since then I've slowly slowly come to this point.

Frist i introduce with this forum in Sep 2017 by my younger brother. He was introduced with this forum by one of his friend. He spent all the time here in participating bounty. It was boring for me. I also open an account in this forum in Sep 2017 but it was inactive. I activate my account this month. Now i found this forum is not only for participating bounty campaign. There are so many section like meta, beginners and help, economy and also our local board to spend time and acquire much knowledge about this forum. Now i am learning more and more day by day.

I remember as if it had been at this time, a friend, who studied with me at the University, called me on the phone saying that there was a forum that referred to everything about Bitcoin and Altcoins, (this in 2017 just when Bitcoin was running towards the trend up) where there were experts, investors and the information was level A1, I did not hesitate and came here.

I started to participate in some Altcoins Airdrops, but after reading the threads, the same forum forces us to raise the level of knowledge and a simple publication is not enough, it must be supported by arguments established in books, articles, among others. All this to raise the level, at that moment the adventure began.

When i started crypto way back in 2017 i remembered those days  i got a new android cellphone in im curious what is bitcoin all about. Because a lot of saying that bitcoin can solve your financial problem so i started to research and asking to any of my friends who are already know about bitcoin. When i'm in my research i have a lot of struggle in year 2018 i get scammed, hype, losing my little funds, etc. It's because those days i didn't even know what is bitcointalk. Until one of my friend in facebook refer me to this forum. Even if he had tell me about this forum i ignore him because i thought he was joking at me but when i ask again to other people related to this forum a lot of saying that bitcointalk forum the main source of learning about crypto. And finally i created my account a couple of months ago in i'm still in the process of learning about cryptocurrency. So i am hoping that this is the right way i'm in.

I have heard a lot of people talk about Bitcoin in my country, I have heard the story of the rise of Bitcoin.

Then, curiously, I did a search on Google and wrote "profile of satoshi nakamoto"
I found some Wikipedia articles on Google, as well as I found Satoshi Nakamoto's profile link.
The first thing I do is clicked on that profile link and I first entered this forum by clicking on the profile link of Satoshi Nakamoto, I can't forget that.

It was the first time I heard about bitcoin, when I was really interested in this currency. I tried google to find out about bitcoin and come to this forum by chance.
Here people can learn a lot of knowledge and can earn money through aridrop and bonuses. It can be said that bitcointalk is the mecca of the cryptocurrency market.

Bitcoin = Financial freedom
I guess many of us old members landed here through Google.

Google is like our magic 8-ball. Without it, I can't imagine how many problems would be left unsolved.

In fact, sometimes I solve my math calculations on the search engine too Cheesy
Lot of scams also pops up while searching on google so don't trust them blindly. When you search the bitcoin forum on google you will see a lot of sites similar to bitcointalk.

There are lies, damned lies and statistics. MTwain
Thanks for the answers so far to this topic. Keep them rolling …

Although the sample is still very small, it gives some tinglings, alongside the testimonials, on how we got to know about this forum. Interestingly enough, so far, family is a tabu way of reaching the forum (I figure that Alt Account cases belonging to "Me, Myself and I" would count as "family", but they are often seen as "friends" here - kidding). The search engine is still the prime factor, and as I stated before, I believe quite a bit could be done to get a better positioning in some contexts.

Note: I will likely not give out more sMerits on this thread. I did a mini-spree here in a honeypot attempt at serving a dual porpose: getting to know something I was curious about and likely interesting for many, and awarding a small portion of the sMerits I had (conceptually) stashed in a fair manner.

I was involved with bitcoin long before I found the forum (2013)and registers account.
How I found it, thanks to Google. I don't remember what I was looking for that time but ended up here. 
I spend some time on the forum before I registered. I didn't thought that It will change my life so much. Before I had some free time to read books, play games and dig into conspiracy theories, now I'm just addicted to the forum.

Without going into the motives behind joining Bitcointalk, I was wondering how people’s first point of contact with the forum was made. Now we may need to jog the memory here a bit, although Beginners & Help tends to have newer profiles around, making the memory lane easier to walk.

If I recall correctly, I reached the forum at the time when searching for information on Bitcoin. I probably performed a Google search for "Bitcoin forum" and made it here through one of the results that popped-up.

What was the reference driver (source, not motive) that drove you to Bitcointalk?
It was a friend of mine who introduced me into bitcointalk. We were just having a conversation about this new trend which is bitcoin and then suddenly, he told me about bitcointalk. He explained to me the contents of it and taught me how to make an account and earn through joining campaigns on it. Afterwards, I was able to learn and I worked hard after joining campaigns which led me to great profits and amidst the crisis on the projects nowadays, I am still continuing to pursue it cause I know things will get better soon.

Back to 2014. First time to know about bitcoin was by mining. A friend of mine who lives abroad, sent me mining machines and the link to preev.com and alloscomp.com in the way to calculate daily profit.
I had started mining without to know anything about bitcoin or what is a blockchain except for a wallet i had to create in coinbase to receive mined btc.
First trouble with the mining stuff, i had to deeply search about how to solve it, and at that time there wasn't enough support info till i discover this forum and was surprised how users are so kind and helpful then start my journey with bitcoin.
Back to 2017, the forum was introduced to me by one of my friends, then i found that i already had an account since 2015.
I want to thank the destinies that leaded me to discover this great community and be a part of it.

What was the reference driver (source, not motive) that drove you to Bitcointalk?
I remember around the year 2017 which I have this random guy in one of the social media I have which we become close since he is also into Bitcoin that year and he already has an account here, don't know who he is here, but I'm really thankful for his advice about this forum.
Although I am not really into some internet forums, few forums I already joined but they are not about cryptocurrency. That time I already have some knowledge like what is thread, section or whatsoever.

At first, there is a lot of curiosity of mine in this forum because some people told me that on this forum, you can easily earn cryptocurrency like Bitcoin so I started to browse the forum and found out that there are a lot of things that other forum doesn't have like earning cryptocurrency/money while learning about Bitcoin and making conversation with other people.
But overall, a lot of new learnings I discovered on this forum.

What do you want to know when you first hear bitcoin? How to earn bitcoin of course  Smiley.

First, we're glad you're here!

Second, i always find this question - how do I earn bitcoin? - an interesting one among the newest among us. Bitcoin is just currency, money! It can be earned the same as any other way people earn money. The best way to earn it is to do whatever it is you do to make money fastest/most/best and then either (1) ask to be paid in Bitcoin or (2) use that income to buy bitcoin.

I realize that people are looking for new ways to make income and some of those ways that are typical for forum sites (like signature campaigns) or bitcoin (faucets) can be come new and novel ways to make money. Explore all the options! Just know that the fastest way to earn bitcoin is to do more work at the highest rate you can get paid to work, the currency you acquire is a separate thing to decide after you get paid for your great work!

I learned about Bitcoin talk back in 2015...it's been a long time and my involvement has been greater or lesser over the years. But the conversations remain the same, always a good education.

Cheers to the newest among you, you keep the party hip!

I also landed here the first time through the search engine, that time all the best information are on this forum because there were few media articles that support Bitcoin and Bitcointalk is ranking in the search engine for information about Bitcoin, I guess many of us old members landed here through Google.
