When firstly I heard about bitcoins I thought its just a scam and will eat away my money but when my friend showed me the proof of his earnings that made me to start having faith in bitcoins and then even I started to research about different ways of earning it.

Do not believe in what you hear, believe in what you see, and do it your way. We are the people who love bitcoin, we understand it, so we should constantly seek to earn extra income from it, until now, I find that there are many ways to do things. That, but you need to invest time, because the money does not automatically come to you, it only comes when we reach out.

I'm fascinated by bitcoin. I heard about it from my friend about a year ago and then I started to earn my first bitcoins on faucet sites. I thought it was just a funny way to spend time but then I realised that I can actually spend and trade what I earn. Now I'm a big bitcoin fan, it opens many opportunities for me.

It's funny because when I started I knew satoshi first before bitcoin. I always checked our forum And I always see a lot of threads with satoshis on the title. I'm just dissappointed because I always see that for more than a year and I always ignore it. And when out of curiosity I checked it and made a research and I was shocked its value is more than a thousand dollars.

Ignoring bitcoins in the past was the biggest mistake done by majority of us as we didn't showed any interest in it when the price was too low and if we would have taken it seriously at that time then today we would be sitting at the most comfortable position.

I began using and spending bitcoins way back 2013 and idk that it had gained so much value in just a span of a few months. Knowing that it has that much of a value i tried to gather information and buy bitcoins but I don't have thhe money to do so. A few months of posting here on bitcointalk, I enrolled to a signature campaign. The first coins I earned went directly to cex.io and I bought ghash expecting to gain something. I noticed that I'm only earning a miniscule amount and my shares jumped from 0.001 to 0.004 btc. I sold it and repeat the process and that's how I learned trading.

I wonder when did that happen? It was long time ago, or it has happened short in the past?
The times when bitcoin was considered as a "scam" was like 2010/2011 I guess?

Obviously, people still say that cryptocurrecies is a one big pile of shit which can only harm your wallet and your bank account, but i guess everyone here knows that is not the true.
Cryptocurrencies are made mostly for adding another payment method however many of them meet specified target, that is also the reason why we can spot so many new coins at the stage of developing.

Im sure we may hear in some time that cryptos are scam, just because some shitcoin robbed many people and it means that all cryptos are like this, right?
Thats the funny perspective my friend told me about, I think that we will hear it many times ( in regular media ) that bitcoin is collapsing / is a scam / it is made for stupid people.

The society cannot understand that blockchain technology is a goddamn revolution in the financial sector.

When I first came to know about bitcoins at that time I was bit confused whether to go for it or not but after spending some time in collecting information about it I had a feeling that my money is safe and in fact bitcoin will help in earning more money in future.

the first one I thought was a bitcoin a medium of payment such as PayPal. but when I use bitcoin turned out better.
The first time I used bitcoin is to buy a VPN service on the Internet. I am very happy because until now I still regularly use bitcoin.

I first started collecting coins from faucets, I had to sleep very late just to collect little amount of it and then I realized it will took me time to get that 1btc by using faucets so after almost a month of doing it I tried researching another way. I stumble in this place and read about signature campaign and lending your service in exchange of bitcoin, but what interest me most is that you can do trading using btc and since I always want to do stock market trading but don't have the big amount of money for my capital I decided to just do cryptocurrency trading. But it wasn't easy as 1 2 3 so what happened was I lost almost all of my collected coins because I don't have any idea on how to trade, but I did not give up I researched more about trading and now I can say that I am profiting little amount of money. Still learning though.

I also almost had no idea what is bitcoin, i thought it is virtual currency, so i didn't understand why people should mine it. Later i understood what is bitcoins mining, but i had no idea why people shouldn't buy them instead of mining, as mining gear was very expensive then.

Then i started to buy bitcoins, just mistake i did was that i used them/sold them instead of keeping them. When i got my first bitcoins they were  200$ each only, and after few months i had almost 3 bitcoins, so i regret that now.

My own foray into bitcoin was actually born out of the curiosity to make some extra income online due to the nature of my job that has given more flexibility. At first, it was not bitcoin, I fell into HYIP sites in which I lost my money twice but still pressed on before getting involved with the forum where I learned a lot that have even helped me up till now. After that, I started collecting faucets which I later gave up because of the difficulty which is not comesurate with the benefit coming from it. And here we are today making some decent income...

My friend introduced me to the world of Bitcoin, so when I knew about it I was so excited earn much. She bragged about earning 1BTC in a month and 1 week, so I was like saying to myself if she could do it then so could I. So I claimed on faucets she referred me but weeks had gone; then a month had passed I was still not close to that 1BTC so she earned. So I decided to do a research on bitcoin and registered here at bitcointalk and read a lot about bitcoins and altcoins. Then decided to do trading and profited rather than those claim faucets which took so long.

Actually if you are just a newbie it is best for you to start in faucets I think she introduce to you faucets because it is easy to earn a little amount of bitcoin there, and I think that is natural for us seniors to do that, but you can not earn much with faucets these days, It is good that you have research here in the forum for more information and have encountered trading, but my opinion is for you to join on signature campaigns first if there are still available position for you because campaigns have much higher payment than faucets was, I think you need to save up as much bitcoin when doing trading!
Faucets are worthless because they just have a small rates in payments and they can't help you to earn at least a money to buy a food for everyday. Faucet sites are just part of the history of bitcoin and if you do faucets then you already wasting your time.
Based on his rank, a newbie will not get enough rate too just like in faucet, i think it is better to rank his account first or deposit his real money and buy bitcoin and use it as a capital in doing trades or investment to grow his money fast rather than waiting and wasting his time in faucets or low rate signature campaigns.

Yes I admit that faucet really is unreliable but we all once a newbie and I think most of us started in taking bitcoin in faucets that are pretty safe and easy, and you can still get some bitcoin with faucets so why would we just shut faucets and I think there are still people that are earning in it well I am doing one faucet and within a year I can profit in it, same as my sig. campaign and if you are a very patient person you can understand what I am saying.

in my case, i first time heard about bitcoin from my friends but when they talk about it, i was unable to understand them and sometimes i thought that i cannot work in bitcoin forum, but in spare time when i sat with my friends to make me understand so i found that it was quite easy for me to understand and recently i start working in this forum and enjoy very much.

Every user feels the same at the beginning. Only the long journey makes a clear understanding and know about the wideness of bitcoin as well virtual currencies. In the early days I was taught to earn through faucets and signature campaign, but soon in a short time I explored and found the ease of gambling with bitcoin. This interested me much and continuing to use bitcoin for several requirements.
