Hello,

as the title say it, i am new to Bitcoin. Is there a standart knowlege to be secure or anything else i need to know

Hello, welcome to the community Smiley

1. For start to understand about bitcoin, read bitcoin pdf: https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf , read this too: https://bitcoin.org/en/faq , also you can find more information in this forum.
2. Choose a right wallet: https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet (my recommend is electrum: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=973768.0 )
3. Be careful with investment which based on ponzi scheme, cloud mining service too, most all ponzi scheme you can check this out: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=878387.0
4. EXPLORE Cheesy

this is the best response to your question. There is a lot to learn technically, do not enter into anything until you have a firm grasp of the technicals. then don't enter into any investment schemes, money making schemes, scams etc. they are everywhere and prey on noobs like you. read these forums, look over all the sections. There is a hell of a lot going on, but getting rich quick isn't one of them.

also, look at the posting history of anyone who gives you advice. It will tell you a lot. Many of the more senior members are willing to help with your questions, and they are easy to vet. be careful of new accounts with "knowledgeable advice"

if you have a lot of time on your hands to make a couple of cents a day then use faucets.

Hmmm , faucet will just kill his time and also won't really earn something valuable may be little
cents if he want .

And this comes from a very talented programmer Smiley  Bitcoin_BOy$ has done amazing things with the Bit-X bot.

I think we should all agree faucets are a waste of time.  You could be so better off doing something else with that time.

Welcome.

If you aren't a technical person than secure yourself with one of these companies:

1) https://greenaddress.it
 2-of-2 multisignature with nLockTime (possible temporarily unable to spend funds) / Free
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=521988.0

2)https://www.bitgo.com/
2 of 3 multisig / Free
 
3) https://www.coinbase.com/vault   or coinbase.com
2 of 3 multisig / insured / Free

4) https://www.bitalo.com/why_bitalo
 2-of-2 multisignature

5) Circle.com

Otherwise here is a lot more knowledge to secure your coins yourself:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=858604.0

Use some common sense as well.

1) Avoid investing in Bitcoin or any alts until you are very familiar the technology. Many alt coins are pump and dump scams. Simply use bitcoins as a useful tool in the meantime

2) Do not mine bitcoins until you go through extensive learning

3) Do not invest or gamble away your bitcoins with any service or person who guarantees returns

Good response, i think it would also be wise to point out to the OP that with companies like Circle.com and Coinbase.com you do not have access to your private keys. Although these are big companies and unlikely to run of with your bitcoins i wouldn't personally trust them or anyone, the OP did mention 'secure' when asking for help so i thought it best to post this.
If going with Coinbase at least choose the vault option so they don't have full access to your funds.

he would win more by joining some newbie campaign, plus he would level accounts in the meanwhile and learn about BTC.

Faucets never are something you should consider once you know bitcointalk
