Bitcoin Forum

Now i have a wallet

Can somebody guide me what to do next

is it a bitcoin address already ?

you use that wallet to send and receive BTC.  Take your time and enjoy the forum is filled information and answers.  Don't be afraid to ask questions that you have thought out.

The next step is to earn some bitcoin. :)
You can sell goods or services to others, or you can enter a signature campaign when you get more activity point. :)

The next step is to get some bitcoins.

The easiest way is to buy them. Preferably at a exchange or via localbitcoins. It takes more time to transfer money to an exchange, however, you'll get more bitcoins for your money there.

Another way is to earn them. There are always some bounties for stuff that has to be done in the Service sub-forum. Or you could get some micro-bitcoins from faucets. That won't earn you much though!

What is your wallet app?

Have you got some online wallet or desktop?

If you are interested in investment buy bitcoins at low price and sell at high price.

Holy crap, is that how you make money!?!?!?!?!?

lol if your interested in making money stay active on the forums and in a few months you could be advertising in your signature and making an extra couple hundred $ a month in bitcoin

Lol
IMO, you can buy some coins and wait for higher price  or you can mine altcoins with a good perspective and than change it to BTC

First enter into the Newbie lottery and go get some Bitcoin dust at some faucets and free sites:

After that, decide if you want to provide a service, sell goods, mine, or trade Bitcoins.

Then once you've reached "Member" level after several weeks here, you can try out for one of the Signature campaigns and get paid in Bitcoins for posting.

Welcome to the forum.

read the forum as much as you can, lots too learn

It seems like you got a general sense of what to do.

But just keep in mind outside from making bitcoin, you brush up on basics that most people overlook.

Esp when someone loses 150 btc or some crazy large amount was sent to an old wallet address.

Or lets say backing up a wallet.dat file not being uploaded, and cant find their balance.

lol, you are guaranteed to make money with that (if you really can buy low sell high). :P

And have a good talk with an expert to learn more

1) Read the forum as there is indeed lots of important information. But it takes a lot of time to find it from all these shitty things.
2) Set your own goals and make somelike of the strategy how to achive your goals using your knowlege and talent.
3) Think about what is interesting to you - trading / mining/ programming / etc
as this forum gives a lot of opportunity to realize yourself.
4) and ou course enjoy what r u doing here))

Good Luck!

Those sticky threads and bitcoin wiki are great place to begin with. :)
