From a newb that just wasted a few hours on faucets and was looking for , what's next?
Thanks for this.


If you are asking what do  to next after wasting time on faucets, well it depends.  If you have some money available I would buy BTC or LTC, I buy my BTC through Coinbase and transfer it to BTC-E to exchange into LTC.  I personally am going to wait through the day to see what the price does.....obviously its been going down lately so Im just curious how far this dip will go.

If you have a good PC at home to do some mining, try to mine some Primecoin through ypool.  I have a few PCs both at work at home doing this so use a primecoin calculator to make calculate how much youll make.

There is always selling a good on the marketplace for BTC, like an old Xbox or something (I tried this, but didnt work yet).

There are options.  The easiest is straight up buying it low now, but try to be creative.

Pretty much agree with Steven.
Apart from buying bitcoin directly, mining CPU-only coins with your CPU, mining scrypt coins with your GPU, selling goods for bitcoin, you can also try selling services for bitcoin and enter some signature ad program.  Smiley

Have you tried trading your primecoins on btc-e for profits? If so, any success?

Ive traded my primecoin for litecoin on BTC-E, but that was just a personal choice, i could have bought bitcoin too.

Yeah for what the price is now, I really think there is good value.  Again...I dont suggest going crazy but buy some BTCs within your means if you want.

Glad I could help even share my positive experience so far!

Exactly, i think the mining train for btc is waaaaay done with by now. But what OP posted makes a lot of sense. Mining some alt coins to trade for btc/ltc.

i like that strategy.

Thanks for the post man!

I love hearing these kind of things, specifically about how people started out. Mining, trading, esp from a small increment perspective.

I REALLY appreciate it. Gives me a little positivity in a crypto world full out doubt.



-Peace!

TLDR: Buy bitcoins now, in fractions if they are too expensive for you.
