Hi everyone. Thank you so much for your kind responses and interest in the project. I have sent out PMs to a few of you who expressed a desire to participate. This project runs through May so there is a lot of scheduling flexibility if people were hesitant due to the impending holiday or just general lack of time in the immediate future. Please feel free to pm me for more information.

I am a graduate student at the University of Arizona studying sociology. I am currently writing my master’s thesis on Bitcoin usage and am looking for people who would like to be interviewed. I am looking to get a sense of why Bitcoin is valuable and what reasons people decide to use Bitcoin. The interviews will be informal and last around an hour or as long as you have available. The time and place of the interview is up to you, as I would like this to be as convenient of an experience as possible. Topics that will be discussed will concern your ideological stance and motivations for using Bitcoin, including your history with the system. Please note that an Institutional Review Board (IRB) responsible for research on human subjects at The University of Arizona has reviewed this research project and found it to be acceptable according to federal and state regulations designed to protect the rights and welfare of participants in research.
Please private message me with your email address if you would be interested in participating and I will send you a copy of the consent form and we can discuss a time that is convenient for you. Thanks!

Is there any reward for doing an interview with you? It's ok if there isn't, just that some people might like some reward for their time. Anyways, I would like to participate, I will send you a PM.

I don't like being interviewed and I'm probably not the best person to talk about bitcoin, but I'd like to wish you the best of luck on your thesis--I think it's a very cool topic.  I'd love to visit Arizona sometime too, but that's another story.

Residing outside of the US is fine, for sampling purposes and oversight concerns participants just need to be American citizens. Shoot me a pm if you are still interested!

My thesis was on Bitcoin as well and would've liked to participate but I'm not a US citizen. Good luck on your thesis!

Absolutely, the only limitations are that this study is restricted to US citizens for purposes of IRB oversight. Skype is a fine option.
