Hello,
I really have no experience with Bitcoin world, so any help is hightly appreciated
I'am pretty sure I can't mine with my shitty PC ?
I can mine with a RDP ? Windows 2012 32 GB RAM ...? or with web host ? Linux ?
& what should I know about mining
I'am really not sure how all this works , so please
help

helpEyeboot.com Buy something from there IMO you need an ASIC.
I already have some informations about that , I'am using Electrum as wallet ,
I don't know anything about the Electrum client. They probably have a support thread or web site I would think.
Then I guess I will just buy some coins and hold them and wait even if it's long term investement , you see I'am young , I only have 17 years old so I guess I can wait
again , thank you & sorry for wasting your precious time mate
again , thank you & sorry for wasting your precious time mate
Not a waste. Just keep researching and learning.
There's more to do than mining. For instance installing the Bitcoin Client and downloading the blockchain so you have a wallet to keep your coins in. Make sure you have plenty free hard drive space and keep your wallet.dat backed up and safe.
I already have some informations about that , I'am using Electrum as wallet , but can't see where is that wallet.dat
when I installed it for first time , it gave me some random words and told me to back those words up , in case I screw my PC up , I can get my wallet back . not sure how it works tho
also there is an option to Export & Import Private keys
that's what u wanted to say ? Then I guess I will just buy some coins and hold them and wait even if it's long term investement , you see I'am young , I only have 17 years old so I guess I can wait

Why not try cloud mining?...
Can you please explain , what is cloud mining exactly ?
That's where you pay hardware manufactures to mine on their obsolete hardware in their facilities so that they can still make a profit off of it after they mined all the profit for themselves. Kind of like hardware manufacture welfare.
How generous are you?
Not that generous I guess haha
how much exactly we should pay ? let me guess we pay in $ and get less bitcoin (using preev.com) ?I don't know what the going rate is honestly. I, at this point, refuse to entertain the idea of cloud mining. If it was profitable the the owners of the cloud hardware would be mining it themselves.
But yes I would expect you would have to pay more then you would earn, unless you held the coins till the value increased substantially, but that is a risk and a long term investment. Unless your willing to join some type of pyramid scheme.
You would probably better off to buy coins and hold them.

helpDont mine bro. Sorry
What's that ASIC you are talking about there ? & what are those USB miners?

If you're in it to make quick profits, not going to happen, mining is hardly profitable nowadays unless you really know what you're doing and have a huge farm and low power bills.
If you're going to buy hardware, make sure it's NOT pre-order, stay away from those, most of the pre-orders turned out to be scams (BFL, KNC, ...)

In all honesty the best place to mine is where electricity would be the cheapest, so the Columbia Basin in Washington is a good place as we are surrounded by dams and wind turbines.
This guy is right, you're not gonna make a fast profit, there are a few exceptions (like mining when a coin first opens so you get a bunch early on), but unless you've got piles of expensive ASICs bitcoin mining isnt feasible for the everyday man.

You can mine with your PC, but you're not likely to get much pool mining even if you had several decent graphics cards to work with as the BTC network has grown so large.
If you are wanting to get serious about mining then either mine altcoins (using bitinfocharts.com to figure out what) or go get an ASIC or two, you could probably even start with little USB miners, they're like $10.
Yes you can mine with VPS's and web hosts, though they aren't likely to do much, and you need to be familiar with command-line linux to do it. I have done a DRK miner with a free VPS, but it was a pain in my rear-end to do, and it really didn't produce all that much as they barely give you any CPU.
You can likely do the same for BTC.
Hope I helped, if you have any questions feel free to ask.
Happy Mining

Mining with my PC isn't an available option haha,my graphic card can't even work correctly with games like Naruto Ultimate ninja storm : Revolution & Payday 2 . so Mining ... guess not .
What's that ASIC you are talking about there ? & what are those USB miners? thanks for the help & sorry if I'am bothering you man
Basically its a piece of hardware that is designed to do one thing really well, and that is to compute the SHA-256 algorithms to mine bitcoin. (Or Scrypt for litecoin and dogecoin)
You can buy USB Asics for $10-$15 on amazon http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=block+erupter&rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Ablock+erupter
Or you can buy some ASICs that are hundreds or even thousands of dollars http://www.gawminers.com/collections/all-miners
Simply googling comes up with several results.
Though in all honesty mining isn't for everyone, I stoppped mining months ago and now I simply trade. If you were wanting to get into Crypto and make some money, trading or investing are your best bets. But you never asked about that so I won't go into detail about it.
One things for certain if you decide to mine: make sure you do pooled mining, otherwise you're not likeyl to get a darned thing. (The exception is mining an altcoin on release because it's network is small)
Any other questions?
