Topic: The time has come to earn Bitcoin from a Youtube channel (Read 395 times)

Well one of the things about being over 80 is that I've been around for a while. I started on "computers" with an IBM 421, and punched cards and plugboards. I moved on to programming an IBM 1401, and then spent many years as a systems prommer on IBM 360 computers, and part of the time was for the London Stock Exchange during the big bang. I'm way behind on the inner working of Bitcoin, but I think I have an unusual over view and appreciation of Bitcoin as it fits into the world economy. I suspect comments on this may get a few views, especially from those viewers who shut off when the see over technical videos from people who don't really seem to understand the magic of Bitcoin, but just trot out the standard lines about permissionless, and decentralised etc. The commednts in this thtread have reinforced my opinion that one has to be circumspect when discussing Bitcoin on YouTube, especially when comparing it to CBDCs. I'm a bit diredt, so I can see me getting into trouble with  this, especially if I start talking about the fake vaccines as well.

Yesterday I helped an elderly friend and his neighbour sort out their gardens. Gardens is perhaps misleading, as they both have over 2 acres. My help was really just collecting a load of scrap metal, and some vintage garden tools, and bits from the garage. If I had thought about it, I could have filmed that, as salvage hunter videos seem to get a few thousand fews on YouTube. One of the things I collected was a hedge trimmer on a stick, and the motor looks to be in good condition. Restoring that is probably worth a video, although a long reach hedge trimmer may not be top of the essential tools list for a van dweller. I also picked up a couple of vintage Volvo bits, as my friend had an estate Volvo many years ago. One is the retractable cover to conceal items behind the rear seat, and that is in good condition. They seem to be selling for £40+ on Ebay. The other is a wire mesh dog guard, but that has a lot of surface rust. I might throw that up on Ebay for auction, as it is probably a rare item. I've also started another web site - Save old cars , and I am concerned that I may be trying to do too many things contemporaneously.

With regard to monetisation, cars and financial videos seem to attract higher paying adverts. Health is another one, but I will need to be careful with that, as I am opposed to the poisons of big pharma, and the SAD ( standard American diet).

Blockchain technology is not just about financial transactions; it has the potential to greatly benefit the healthcare industry by serving as a secure repository for health data. Currently, there is a problem of fragmented healthcare data stored in various places by different doctors, resulting in incomplete information pools.

To address this, a rewarding system should be implemented when integrating blockchain technology into the healthcare sector, as good health is something priceless. By gaining access to a centralized health data bank, all doctors would have the opportunity to access a wealth of medical knowledge and expertise.

While Bitcoin may have limited capabilities, blockchain itself holds tremendous potential as a transformative technology in healthcare.

Indeed it is a waste of time, if only youtuber can create a really unique content. And even then, the earning will be not directly from youtube, but from using youtube as a intermediary between viewer and the product that is used in video description (referral link, link to merch store and etc). I dont think that youtubers earn a lot directly from video views. I would also point that cryptocurrency is a complicated and serious topic for discussion, while most come to youtube in search for entertainment and relax. What I mean is that educational and explanation video about crypto will get far less views than a video of funny cats.

One of the learning media that also produces Streaming on YouTube offers many opportunities, especially in terms of content creation in fields such as commerce. Many skilled and experienced individuals have ventured out to create trading channels, providing valuable insights and strategies. However, the decision to utilize these channels is up to each individual, whether as an absolute guide or as a reference only.

The crypto niche on Youtube seems relatively small. Most crypto related Youtube channels have several thousand views per video, which is small amount by the Youtube standards and I guess that they cannot be properly monetized. I wouldn't feel comfortable begging crypto enthusiasts for crypto donations, but you can do this, if you want to.
I don't think that a 81 year old man would attract a big audience on Youtube(or social media in general). Nowadays, everything on social media is about young hot girls. It's way easier for a young and hot girl to grow a following on social media.
You could do whatever you want, but I think that starting a Youtube channel in 2023 seems more like a waste of time and effort.

I find that earning bitcoins directly through YouTube or other mainstream social media platforms can be challenging. As of now, these platforms mainly support payments in traditional currencies like dollars, euros, or pounds. But as cryptocurrencies evolve, it is entirely natural that new opportunities may arise for content creators to earn Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies through alternative platforms or methods. Therefore, I hope that this idea will be possible in the future and that your efforts will bring good results. Congratulations on a wonderful birthday party!

Nope, not me but, I like the idea of the humble beginning for which you have begone. It's a good idea for some users who have been around in this place and have bulk of knowledge to at least pass the right message be at some of these used frontiers in the likes of YouTubes and other social media, spreading the right message to weary eyes and ears.

Some of the best ways in which owners of channels get to earn on YouTube is by affiliations, ads and grants from those whom wish the channel to grow. You focus would be on growing your channels and even get to organise online live teaching sessions to better help your viewers. When the channel has got enough subscribers,  you could have means to some cool coins.

I'm half your age, also living in a van, and also own a bitcoin website that I haven't really done anything with haha. I should do start to do something with my website too.  So, fellow vandwelling bitcoiner right here

Well, I would guess that you could basically just earn money from youtube and turn that into bitcoin? That seems like a thing people could have done for many years now and doesn't seem like a new thing. In the end there are ways people are trying to earn bitcoin in all kinds of different methods and I do not think that we need all that.

We can earn regular fiat if we want to and then turn that fiat into crypto and that way we would be having crypto instead of fiat. Why try to make bitcoin right away if you can't, no need to do that. Same goes for people who use patreon, they have been calling for a crypto payment for years but that part is legally tough and in order to do that you need to make sure that you are just getting fiat from patreon and then turn that into bitcoin.

Just in case I don't see it when you post about your big day , will make my advance bday wishes...Happy 81st Birthday to you Jet cash 🎉🎁🎂

As of earning Bitcoin from a Youtube channel, I really don't think this will be possible because of its anonymous nature it has. Besides , with youtube content curators coming from all corners of the world being guided by different monetary policies and regulation,  I think they (youtube) wouldn't want to be in the wrong books with any nation and will stick to bank transfers and the alike to pay its monetized channel  curators.

So why not try using "Wonderful filmora ver9 or 12", a very easy to use & simple window editing software that is best for editing YouTube videos, because that was the video editing software I used when I started my YouTube channel far back in 2020, and I felt very okay as the software is user friendly compared to Adobe Pro. Or likewise consider using OpenShot which is similar to Wonderful filmora.  

I think there is a danger in promoting Bitcoin on YouTube, YouTube is still not friendly to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency and applies strict government policies towards Bitcoin so your channel may be banned especially if you get a lot of popularity and views. I remember that in the recent past they shut down several channels promoting cryptocurrency.

Of course, this will cause the loss of all your efforts, but the worst thing is if there is legal accountability.

In Youtube you could literally earn a lot depends on the views and  subscribers you have since Youtube can put some ads in any videos that are applicable to put advertisement for sure there's a minimum views and subscribers for you to earn. But if we're talking about the Bitcoin as your reward then it would be impossible. Even in Twitch the donation itself is digital currency like Paypal but it doesn't approved to Bitcoin since people are not still known to complicated system of Bitcoin. But it would be possible if you could actually make your own mode of payment that people could use Bitcoin. But it should be voluntary to use Bitcoin as transactions because so far it would be impossible to happen especially in the Youtube.

You can easily get 1k subscribers from bitcointalk users. I thinks thats what youtubers need to start monetising channel. There is no BTC option on youtube though.

If i live in a van, I probably will upload videos of places I once stay like where campers goes. Add more information and interviewing campers as well. Many people are starting to live the same way.

My impression for you is that at that age you still keep to yourself a money-making mindset and especially with the cryptocurrency market. I think you deserve the admiration of more people, even some young people like our generation still don't know or have much time for bitcoin.
And with my advice, I don't know how you would do it with youtube, but some of the channels that I followed before, sharing life content or best friends comes with a donation account, hope it's helpful to you.
And really wanted to say happy birthday to you.

unfortunately youtube doesn't seem to intend to integrate Bitcoin on their service now or in the future as they are not really keen on it. however regarding the promotion of bitcoin on their platform, that seems to be quite the problem, considering that youtube has already removed 2 major crypto related channels from their platform and monitored the channels posting videos regarding cryptocurrency. they don't seem to like that their platform is filled with excessive promotion of cryptocurrencies and things related to it, so you seem to need to pay attention to this before uploading videos about crypto on Youtube.

I started to think about starting a YouTube channel about a couple of years ago. My idea was to speculate to see if I could win a million to buy some woodland. I wanted to use the channel to discuss speculations where the initial investment was protected, or if there was a loss, there was a reasonable expectation of recovering the loss through associated actions. For example, I looked at scratch cards, and at the time it looked as if there was an expectation to "win" at least 70% of the investment. I thought that I may be able to recover the 30% loss by asking for winnings in commemorative £2 coins, and sell those, and also to build a channel to gain a bit of income. I spent quite a lot of time investigating this, and watching a number of the scratch channels. I didn't ever buy any cards, and I won't now. It looks as if the "winning" expectation is down to about 40%, and a loss of 60% is too much to recover. I bought some premium bonds, and I started a thread about this. You don't lose the principle with this savings bond, and just gamble with the interest. I'm getting impatient now, and I'm considering selling some low value property that I own, and trying to crowd fund a larger woodland area. Many of the people who have embraced the van life are extremely protective of the environment. I suspect they would welcome the chance to relax in a quuiet woodland community.

I haven't found many van dwellers who own Bitcoin, although many of them seem to have heard of it. Most of their information seems to come from the mass media, hearsay, or over-technical YouTube channels that they don't understand.

Is that your date is correct ? 81st Birthday and you are still in bitcointalk, omo the matter marveled me. Well there is a statement that says, finished strong. Probably you are finishing strong. Your website is not well developed yet. And the purpose of the site is not well stated.  Earning BTC in YouTube Channel? How? At least you would have explained the steps to earn from the YouTube Channel and not asking again whether if we have also earn from YouTube Videos. Now what do you want us to answer you? Yes or no? My guy you would have telling us how to go about it and not stories.

Considering your lifestyle and age, I think a style of a life vlog with short videos could be interesting. You're pretty popular here, and I'm sure you have a lot to teach about Bitcoin. If it's taught from a practical approach, an approach of a Bitcoin maximalist rather than just a theorist, it can be pretty good stuff. As for monetization, that's tricky. But the simplest thing is to get YouTube monetization in fiat and convert the funds into BTC, perhaps. I just don't see another way. You can, of course, leave a Bitcoin address in the video description, but that's pretty much it.

Just earn from the Youtube Partner Program or sponsorships/affiliate programs ==> send the money from the bank to an exchange ==> withdraw to your Bitcoin wallet. Nothing really complicated about that.

But it's kinda hard to make it if you are not really known in the wider world. Personally from my experience, if you make a video that manages to consistently gain views, you cut the amount of content you need people can watch before you are eligible for monetization. Not that my Youtube stats are glamorous - there's a lot more to be desired.
