That depends strongly where do you live because not all the countries have the possibility to buy bitcoins in the same ways and easily. I would suggest coinbase if you are in the countries where offer the service of buying and selling bitcoins. If not you can use virwox which work everywhere and have the opportunity to buy with credit card or paypal. Only one thing. The fees at virwox are high.

When I was a newbie I bought BTC at https://anycoindirect.eu, the pay really quick when u have paid. Also they have a small amount of fee. I am sometimes still using this service to get some BTC. And if you want to buy with cash u can go to localbitcoins.com and find someone near to you. ClamCoin 😄 I am totally agree with localbitcoin. Use to buy with them. Pretty quick and comfortable! |

Depends on where you live and the payment methods you have access to, IMO buying BTC for a US citizen might be pretty easy with Circle/Coinbase and can be done even with creditcard after some verification. You could also go to localbitcoins and look for different methods (bank deposit, cash, mail order etc...).
Europeans can do a SEPA transfer deposit to something like bitstamp for example or trade locally at Localbitcoins. There are many exchanges growing and are country specific but I don't know if they actually work or not.

One of the best ways for a complete Bitcoin newbie (no previous knowledge of Bitcoin and no Bitcoin holdings) to earn Bitcoin for free in my opinion, is for them to use high paying faucets regularly. This is a great way to get acclimated to Bitcoin and start growing your holdings right away. Then afterwards, once they have learned how to use Bitcoin, they should join this forum and eventually join a signature campaign.
Im not sure what the easiest way to buy Bitcoin for a newbie may be, but my suggestions are something like circle, local Bitcoins, or maybe even Coinbase, although I have heard a few negative things about Coinbase. I think it depends on what country you are in and what the Bitcoin beginner feels comfortable with doing.

Just going to cost more and put you at more risk then a good exchange. What country are you in? The exchange will greatly depend on this. |

Absolutely easiest way would be virwox but this is also the most expensive way. So I guess instead of virwox, I would suggest him localbitcoins.

I really think being new sending him twords localbitcoins is not best way. Maybe if he does make sure small trades at first. You really don't want to send someone brand new to a place that can get people scammed. I vote to stick with well known exchanges. Yes a little more setup time. But in the long run cheaper BTC and more reliable. |

But in the long run cheaper BTC and more reliable. Yes, now when I think about it, you might be right. You have to have some sort of experience when tradkng on localbitcoins. Exchange might be the best option after all, but then again all of the verification processes, wiring money to the exchange might also be a bit overwhelming. This made me realize that buying Bitcoins is still very hard to do and that we still have to do much more to make a process more user friendly. I guess buying Bitcoins on the Bitcoin ATMs in bigger cities is the easiest way it gets. |

Circle.com is pretty easy to use, not sure what countries are allowed to buy BTC though.
it's seems that you can attach a bank account to your account only if you're from usa, but the site lets it go, even if you come from another country i tried and i was able to connect my credit card to my account on circle, and i'm in italy |

How did you bypass initial phone verification? It asks you for the US phone number for the code to be sent to. |
