My username says it all really, from november 2014 to january 2015 I manually sent $1 worth of Bitcoin to more than 1000 random reddit users (using /r/changetip bot, sadly no longer operational).

Back then a Bitcoin cost about $300 so I guess I should now change my username to Random170DollarTip …

Spent about 2 Bitcoin on this little operation, don't regret a thing!

EDIT: Added a few comments I got after tipping people.

"Thank you for introducing me to BitCoin."

"do people even care about cryptocurrency anymore?"

"And why??"

"Cool, thanks! What is it?"

"Keep your fucking spam in /r/shitcoin, a**hole."

"That's cool! thanks!"

"Man, the bitcoin guys are getting desperate."

"thanks!"

EDIT 2: WOW, thank you all for your kind words, I am truly humbled! A quote comes to mind that seems fitting:

"Give and you shall receive, much more than you ever thought possible. Give and give again. Keep hoping, keep trying, keep giving! People who give will never be poor!” – Anne Frank

And way to go /u/displaybeats, looking forward to reading your story a few years from now. 🙂
