Topic: Just a friendly advice for the new guys (Read 5592 times)
Learn more about bitcoin. Learning will make you earn bitcoin in multiple ways. Shine.
I assume that, when all of us first heard of bitcoins and started reading about it, all of us made our first few satoshis on some faucet like freebitco.in or any other, and everything was like "I'm gonna make so much bitcoins with this!". But when you use if for some time and get a little bit more into bitcoin, you'll see that that amount you've collected over a week or so, is barely worth a penny.
So here's the advice, when you first come here and read all about them faucets, don't get your hopes up (like I did) thinking you will make something out of it. Owners of those faucets are the only ones who will profit. Faucets are there just in the beginning to help you see what it's like to receive, own, send bitcoins and how to use your wallet.
Use the faucets, see how it feels to have bitcoins but don't expect anything more than that.

at least do the math with any investment you do and see if it's worth the time

You just ruined my dreams. haha. I am new to BTC but yes i already know this will not give me much but still better than nothing right? Trying to get to know how this system works. Hopefully i'll be in a better place soon
My part goes here...
1. Choose a suitable wallet either online or desktop
2. Use strong password
3. Use this forum for educating yourself
4. Learn and earn bitcoins simultaneously....
I do these. I too need more tips from veterans...

Very well said... It's very true that when you make them, and try to spend them, you see that they ain't worth a dime based on some very small faucet earnings and go back empty-handed... They should learn to invest instead or to gain them by doing jobs for it like writing, translating, photography, microjobs, etc...
What got me started was selling stuff strictly for bitcoin, stuff that I normally put up on Ebay, I just sold it for bitcoin and bought my first mining gear, slowly but steady started to grow, just recently quitted mining, to much factory sound in my house
The only consistent way to earn bitcoins today, is from signature campaigns.
Some1 should make a thead about that and tell all newbies to sign up for sig campaigns, and then make that thread pinned.
This is the best advice for newbies.

I don't think thread like that is should be a pinned. Because signature campaign thread is has been created on service discussion, the problem is people, especially newbie rank here is too lazy to search that thread.
That is why it should be pinned, newbies are lazy to search the forum, they go in the beginner section, and there we should have that info right in their face so that they dont have to open 20 threads /day asking "how to earn bitcoin".

Everybody recommends signature campaign but leaving faucet earning.
I do not understand when some selective faucets provides more than signature campaign, why not we do both at a time?
Faucets used to pay alot back in 2014 but nowadays they pay crappy 400 satoshi / post.
In sig campaign i get at least 0.0008/post.

Well said advice, thanks. This is what I am experiencing and this thread opened my mind. But I use faucets only on my spare time while joining a sc.
Many people have shared many good ideas here. Still, bitcoin oriented services will get us more bitcoins as quick as any other methods could bring more bitcoins to us.
The best way to earn bitcoin has always been to sell products people want for bitcoin. You get your bitcoin at a discount from your profit margin and help bitcoin grow. Instead of looking for a free lunch find something to sell you are passionate about and start an online shop.
That sounds like a nice idea!
How do I upload a picture? I've searched high and low under the profile tab, I see where I can adjust all my other preferences, but no where will it let me upload a pic.
Thanks!
Thanks!
The question is in the wrong place.
If you think the picture for the avatar you can not set it until you become a Full Memeber,and if you think just an image to post in forum use upload service like TinyPic.

The people who own these faucets are doing us a favor they should profit a little because they are helping people like myself get into bitcoin be a bit more grateful
It's not really doing you a favor when your doing things to make them money. Were talking about very very small micro payments. There are entire threads on better ways then faucets.
Yes some do faucets but you will make cents for hours of work. That does not work for most people. Just to little pay for the amount of time and effort.
For people in Venezuela as reported in this topic 0.037 BTC is half of they monthly salary,I think it would be worth for them to earn some $ even from faucet.

That's because the rate currency of Venezuela. But it's good to see Bitcoin can help financial people in Venezuela.
For me better to find some giveaway than use faucet as earn btc, i don't have a passion on faucet, i even can't earn 0.037 BTC just from faucet.
