I keep seeing people claiming to be well under 18 and claiming they have made a decent amount of Bitcoin yet how can they? They can't purchase from any excahnge because you need to be 18 in order to sign a legal contract and buy from any exchange.

So they are lying unless they sell services but they have no experince in most things sorry for the rant but its annoying when people claim to be young and have enough experince to make well over 50 Bitcoin in such a short period of time without buying from a exchange.


Who really cares what someone says they made or didnt make.  Don't worry about others too much.


With that said,  it wouldn't be hard at all to get bitcoins if youre under 18.  It's like saying "how the hell are all these kids under 21 drinking beer?!!?!"  Smiley .  If there's something like an exchange where you need ID or to be a certain age, it's not that unthinkable that many kids have parents, relatives, or friends that would help them get an account.  I know I had an account on a sports gambling site when I was teenager thanks to having older brothers who were fine with me gambling my own money away.
