My first bitcoins came from Primedice signature campaign way back September 2014. From then on, I started to buy a little amount of btc every month and I have never failed to do so for the past 10 months.

How'd you get your first bitcoins (faucets aside) and what did you do to them?

I bought them, and used them to trade.

Was not that much, but enough

Mine came from altcoin mining...

Mine came sig campaigns over here which allowed newbie accounts Grin

Then selling domain names and vcc. Wink

My first Bitcoin also came from mining an alternate coin, putting those on an exchange and trading them for bitcoin.

My first Bitcoin actually came from a friend back in 2012.

Bought them, which that first time really felt like jumping through hoops, especially with the fees that I also had to pay. Wished there was a Bitcoin atm near me. Would make life a lot easier.

Still remember my first payment too, I was worried they would fly off into nowhere.

The good ol' days when faucets can give 1-2 bitcoins per user. I wish I could go back in 2011-2012. I'd definitely rape every faucet available back then.

mining with a 7950 back in 2013 when diff was around 7M(for bitcoin), i was mining directly on a p2pool great reward, i remember 0.04 per day as a top reward

I got my first bitcoin from one of the oldest bitcoin casino, strikesapphire.com , I played from its poker free roll every day. I also had few mBtc left in my dragon tale account, but I can't play it anymore due to low specs of my PC.

I bought my first Bitcoin on ebay. I was pissed to find out later that the $30 I paid for 1 BTC(actually a 1 BTC mt.gox voucher) was much higher than the market rate.....

My first bitcoins come from a BTC faucet site. It gave 0.005 BTC per individual request. But, one person once request limitations applied.

Actually I bought my first bitcoin and then I joined signature campaign and started to earn bitcoin regularly by posting in it. And till date I have made descent number of bitcoins and want to keep on growing bitcoins as we believe that price will reach to the moon in coming years.

I think i have heard and earned the first satoshi in faucet, i think it was freebit.coin. it was interesting

USb miners! Wink

I think I had about 40 at 1 time.

I have to say (even though you said faucets aside) is I got my first few satos from a faucet in very late 2013.
Without faucets I probably would have never got my hands on enough to mess around with and ultimately learn about Bitcoin.
I'm stating this because this is the reason why I think BTC faucets are more important (especially for adoption) then some members here think.

But aside from that, my real first decent amount of BTC was from a good old gambling whale named LiKa Shing.
Those were the days, Lol.

You remembered me when i bought 25 USB miners which was bitcoin and litecoin at the same time i think.
They were intersting to test the mining itself

my firsts bitcoin came from a casino which i believe is called betchain, i got there a non deposit bonus of 0.005 and somehow managed to rollover 35 times, all in all i withdrew 0.06 bitcoins what was one of the biggest achievements in my gambling life
