There are many ways to accumulate Bitcoin. One can mine them, receive them free courtesy of giveaways, offer good and services in exchange for them, gamble what little you have in hopes of winning more (not recommended, though), and get into alternate cryptocurrencies by mining and/or trading them and eventually exchange them for BTC. This forum has all the info you need to get started on building up your BTC holdings. Happy reading!

Interesting, thank you so much! How would one go about mining? I've been told by several people you have to have your own server for this, is that true?
