Why are you focusing on "look for bitcoin"? It's like saying you're in your first year as a doctorate/medicine major student and you're already asking where you're going to get a job? You need to READ. A LOT. If you're here mainly for making money, then sorry.

Exactly this. To understand bitcoin u need to READ A LOT. If you dont have ANY background in computers there is long way to go. But trust me, its worth it.
With knowledge money comes to you, so first learn, then you will earn.

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency/digital currency in other country.
They are using it to pay bills or something they need.
Bitcoin are investment.
Bitcoin has a unpredictable price every sec/minute/hour it goes down or up.
Bitcoin is the father of all digital coins.
Wayback 2011 bitcoin is just 2.75$ only but now it has 7k$+
See the difference?
So bitcoin is a good investment.
For me being a financial analysis bitcoin will have more potential in the future
So i encourage you to search more about bitcoins and invest to it.
Have a good day!
