I won't leave my day-job. In the future we'll all have UBI (Universal Basic Income). The dollar will be worthless and 1 satoshi will probably get you something to eat (if btc is still on top).




So no, I won't leave my day job, my day job will leave me!

As to how many people have left theirs... I don't know.

I think that is not even a bad idea actually. Being involved in bitcoin ventures can be just like a job, albeit with a bit less job security as these things may come and go a bit faster.

If it is his own venture, that has ofcourse added risks, but it can make you big as well, same as entrepreneurship in normal ventures.

I can't dare to leave my full-time job because i it may be unpleasant for some who is unbacked.
In bitcoin venture,we even need to wait weeks and months to withdraw profits.
My consensus opinion is to keep your full time job and to work with bitcoin as a part time

im still focus at my full-time employement, in my work, i have an assurance to get a good salary. bitcoin for me is my part time to get an extra income.

I am wondering what 'goind into Bitcoin' really means.
There are many people who simply change their employer. Like all thos guys working for bitpay.
They have quit their old job and now work for another company.
And then there are those people, I would consider them to be self employed. Traders for example.
But if you are asking about a number of how many people make a living from bitcoin in any kind, I would say there are not much more than a couple of thousand.

We all know that having a job is important and bitcoin is a good extra income so don't rely in bitcoin. You can do both at the same time.

I know people who left their job but most of their children had finished studying and is working. Well you can say that they had gome to early retirement and concentrate in their Bitcoin ventures since they work on their convenience which at the same time invests some of their earnings in business.

For me, I wouldn't leave my job since I can manage both my job and Bitcoin ventures effectively. The career I have in my job is important since it is not all about earning money but rather a sense of achievement I have for myself.

I would like to say that it can be considered either a good or bad decision i.e. they had weighed both pros and cons before they made up their mind in doing so. Maybe it is a much better choice in their case?

I wouldn't dare to do it.Your friend's friends must be very brave.While the price is keep changing there is a chance that they can't eat anything at the end of month and this is a risk that I don't want to take. Surely I love working for bitcoins and if I had a guaranteed salary I would definitly leave my current job.

SO for mw, that is a very wrong decision. Having a full time work is a very stable to think, no worries at all.
I guess they do not mind of the future that maybe someday, bitcoin will crashes out, because actually no one knows about that so why do they change their life time income with unstable and volatile bitcoin?

1. Bitcoin is still in its early stage so everyone has a fair advantage, might be different in the next 10 or 20 years. Some people hodl bitcoin, others trade, some receive it as means of payment for their services/products. Holders doesn't have to quit their full-time job to focus on bitcoin.

As far as traders are concerned it depends, if a trader is making more money trading than his regular job, then quitting full-time job and focusing on bitcoin is a viable option if he understands the risks, possibile lack of a steady income, lack of a full-time job security. I personally would prefer full-time job/part-time trading.

2. If you are passionate about bitcoin, believe in its technology and future potential then I think quitting your full-time job and starting your own bitcoin startup or being part of other bitcoin related startups is a good option.

3. Keeping your full-time time job and getting paid in BTC for your part-time services or products is the safest option.

4. Yeah, crypto space is hostile, competitive, and can be manipulated to some extent. If you quit your full-time time job and focus only on cryptos, it's somewhat a gamble, it might pay off, may not. A regular job and into bitcoin seems safe.
