Welcome.

So far I....

Got a wallet through Coincase
Got a miner with GUIminer
And choose the Slush Pool


Am I missing anything so far? Or am I ok?

And right now, I can do about 134m/h, which I think is slow?

It is not really suggested to store your bitcoin on coinbase (or any exchange) as you have no control of the private keys.
I assume you are mining bitcoin with GPU, right? If so, you can get way better outcome mining scrypt coins.



Yea, I want to go for desktop or paper wallet. Ill try to figure that out as I go, since I do not have any coins right now.

And yea, on bitcoin with gpu right now. I will look more into alt coins soon, currently no clue about them so far lol.

And thanks for replying!

There are a lot you can learn here, have fun Wink

So... I finished school in business, and then I realized I picked the wrong career path. So I decided to look focus more on my passion, which is anything computer related. But I realized that I know a lot about computers, but then I dont know crap. It's really weird, like I would know how to reset a motherboard, mess with basic SQL stuff, or create a usb image, but I never knew how to open a port till recently. So in my drive to learn and relearn more IT stuff, I learn about bitcoins. I figure it will help me learn more and it seems pretty exciting.

I decided to try it out, and I hope I can learn a lot from you all!!!

I am trying to mess with some settings right now, but I figure it is a nice small start.

Comments, flames, and advice is all welcomed!
