- Hack the Bitcoin source. This may prove useful to those familiar with coding.
- Mine. If you're into high-efficiency computing, creating a strong miner will definitely get you going.
- If you own a business, accept Bitcoin for your services. You may also wish to encourage other businesses to follow in your footsteps.
