How to Earn 1 Bitcoin
Earning 1 BTC takes time, effort, or capital — so set a clear timeline and strategy based on your skills and resources.
Use ASIC mining hardware and cheap electricity to mine BTC. Costly, technical, and best for experienced users.
Freelance on platforms like
CryptoJobs
or
Bitwage
— write, code, or design and get paid directly in BTC.
Sell products or services and accept Bitcoin payments using platforms like
BTCPay Server
or
OpenNode
.
Promote crypto tools or exchanges. Many offer affiliate payouts in Bitcoin for every new user you refer.
Teach skills or share content on platforms that let you earn tips or fees in Bitcoin.
Earn small BTC amounts (sats) through apps like
Fountain (for podcasts)
or
Fold (for shopping rewards)
.
Earn other cryptocurrencies, then convert profits to BTC when markets rise.
Avoid scams, use trusted wallets, and stick to your strategy — earning 1 BTC is a marathon, not a sprint.
