I am absolute beginner with bitcoins. I just found out about this currency a few weeks ago from newspaper. I did some research on my own and what I have found so far is that it is a currency that is "mined" with computers (where does it come from, who issues it, is there any gold/petroleum backing it?). I am confused by this whole mining process, a lot of sites I visited say you need to solve complex mathematical problems to earn or mine bitcoin. What is this "complex" mathematical problem? Is it something like SETI@Home? Do some research labs/universities offer incentive in form of coins?
All the guides that I have found so far are either very technical or plain vanilla that leave out a lot of questions. Is there any guide that is not too technical yet explains the technical stuff in plain English?
Thanks.

EDIT:

And if someone could explain the terms like altcoin, faucet, wallet, satoshi etc. that'd be really appreciated.

Thanks.

Youtube, youtube and youtube!

Well you're already on this forum so that's a start. There's a great website with a lot of information about bitcoin called https://lopp.net/bitcoin.html It covers how Bitcoin works, where it comes from, talks about mining, trading, has a lot of video presentations, statistics and a lot more! The 2nd source I would suggest is Andreas M. Antonopoulos just put his name on YouTube and you'll find plenty of videos where he talks about Bitcoin and Blockchain. And always ask if there's something you don't understand.

Coti - Currency Of The Internet
I will help you and explain these terms you asked about.

Altcoin is an alternative coin then Bitcoin itself. You can also buy it, mine it, trade it, etc.. All altcoins came later on then Bitcoin.

A facuet is a feature on say a gamble site or a faucet site itself on which you can get free money in that currency. You have faucets for BTC, LTC, Dogecoin, etc... They often have hourly limits to them. Watch out for scam faucet sites though. Be alert.

Just like in real life you need a wallet online to store your digital money. You can also buy a hardware wallet or offline wallet. There are wallets online that require you to download or simply make an acc on their site such as blockchain.info.

Satoshi's are 1 million't of a bitcoin. Say 1 bit of a bitcoin is 100 satoshi of that 1 bit.

There are some free udemy courses that focus on the basic of bitcoins, cryptocurrency, and blockchain. Take a look. They explain it in a way that even beginners like us can easily comprehend.


I would recommend you to find some information for beginners on Youtube. I started this myself and I must admit that I was very pleased. If you have any specific question, you can easily ask for help in this forum.

I suggest you start by watching some youtubes videos on Bitcoin. You can also search on google what is bitcoin. It's very easy to use google. Personally, I also check Reddit Bitcoin and Twitter for the best and fastest news or drama on Bitcoin. If you see the price of the Bitcoin pump and you do not know why just go to Bitcoin reddit and you will have your answer. Bitcointalk is also one of the best Bitcoin forum.
I think it's a good idea because of that way could be much easier to learn stuff like that.
