how to get started

[techbadoo]

I will like to get help about bitcoin, am a total beginner without cash to invest. A fellow advice me to start bitcoin by opening wallet with Xapo, then collect free satoshi from bitcoin faucets and also bitcoin ptc like coinad.com then use the satoshi to invest in bitcoin hyip like earntomorrow.com or bitcoin pool.
I want to know if this is a good way to begin for beginner without money. Is there a better option?

Why not get a job and save some money then buy BTC?  When you get 1000 USD worth, you can trade them back and forth for altcoins to accumulate more BTC.  Trading crypto is really fun because you can move them from one exchange to another so easy.  But expect some losses from time to time, it's like gambling.  But you can try to minimize losses and your risk by managing your bankroll well, and you can maximize your profit in the process.

I also recommend this thread to you

Explains the things behind Bitcoin pretty good and from the view of a newbie.

Why to invest in HYIP? I guess earntomorrow is a scam website and here is a thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1018960.0

If you want to invest, it's better to buy gift cards from gyft or purse after earning some bitcoins as mostly all HYIPs are scams. Also, faucets won't earn you enough to even invest as one can barely earn $0.2 from faucets (Without any referrals) while websites like tremor games and few android apps make you earn even more. Even get-paid.com is a great website and if you want to earn more BTC, buy at a lower rate and sell at a higher rate. It's safer.

I think those stuff you mentioned are just to see how thinks work and all of this, but if you really want to earn profit on this market with only faucets and that kind of stuff you will make no more than fraction of cents, maybe if you don't have anymoney to invest you can offer your services like desing or something, and if you can't do so consider signature campaigns on the forum your best shot

Invest in HYIP is too risky. Bitcoin pool? Cloud mining? check this out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=878387.0
better to find some small task or jobs which pay you in bitcoin like this:
https://coinworker.com/
also you can find some jobs here:

if you want to invest, invest on bitcoin, use desktop wallet: https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet (my recommend is electrum).

Stay away from any HYIP/Ponzi/whatever scheme... you'll just end up getting screwed.  Using something like a Xapo wallet and hitting faucets will earn you some minuscule bits... but it's certainly a way to get started.  Trading coins on exchanges once you have some can be a good learning experience as well.

No it is not a good way. Faucets and PTC sites will only give you a tiny amount of bitcoin, and you will only get some dusts after solving numerous captcha. HYIPs are even worse as they will just stop paying and will scam your bitcoin.

It is much better for you to get a job. You can find yourself a real life job and use part of your salaries to buy bitcoin, or you can find a bitcoin job in https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0 and http://www.reddit.com/r/Jobs4Bitcoins/.
If you don't have any particular knowledge or skill, you can join a signature campaign to get some bitcoin with constructive posts. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=615953.0

First thing is deciding what you want to learn about.  Bitcoin is a massive subject overall.  Just ton's of topics to it.

If you want to learn mining, trading, just in general.  Once you decide on this we can direct you to a better topic for it.   You really have to narrow it down and eventually you can know about them all.  But just take it slow.

First, dont use Xapo. If you want a browser-based wallet, Blockchain.info is a better choice.

Second, faucets wont give you enough Bitcoin. Post at least once every day in this forums. When you're a Full Member, you should be able to earn around $5 a week.

Faucets is good for early and newbies. But actually it's waste your time.
For op if you already know how faucest works, u can rent your signature, avatar, and pm in this subforum service. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=52.0.

This seems like the best way to go. If you get a job and ideally live with your parents, you can do really risky stuff with your wage, as long as you don't have to pay for expenses you could go as far as going 100% in with BTC then playing with alts.

Please do not recommend HYIP schemes to Newbie members
HYIP is 100% risk and all bitcoin you invest is never gauranteed to return though if you can work it out at right time , you can make good profit but i will never recommend it . About faucets , as i always say, if you're really looking for some accountable amount forget about faucets, they are merely waste of your precious time instead try Service section or try some job in real life.
You can start your own faucet easily with little help using microwallet API and with as little investment as 0.1 btc , work out a good design and system and do some research and join Google Adsense , there are alot of people's going for faucets. so you will always make good btc with a good design.
