I scraped together the little money I have and dove into bitcoin. My ambition is to make money trading altcoins and keep a bitcoin reserve. Can I even make it anywhere starting with such a small amount of money?

Just find a Bitcoin ATM, buy $25 worth of Bitcoin, then hold ( hodl ) it for 5 years.

Doesn't matter if it is only 25 dollars. Buy it with the money you got and Hodl it for the next couple of years. It will be doubled, even tripled.

I would advise against this, sure it may turn in to something like $500 but that's your cap. If you are able to trade successfully you could turn it in to way more than $500. You can start that small for sure there's no reason you can't.

Maybe it could happen reaching that value, but I don't think smaller capital to start will gain at faster returns because you will have to wait for another uprising price. Small investments could not generate bigger profit within a short period of time you will encounter more struggles prior reaching your goals in order to control your decisions. Don't panic and if ever you have another excess money you should have an additional investments in order to make your capital increase also.

If that's last of the money you have left, then I suggest that you don't go with bitcoin. You might need your fiat more than you need the bitcoins. If your goal is to use that $25 to daytrade altcoins as a beginner, then you're going to have a very bad time. Trust me. You're better of holding them than daytrading.

You can start trading with $25 but I wouldn’t suggest. You won’t see any profits and the chances of losing money are also high. Unless you have invested in a right coin at the right time and it’s shoots up.

As the other user mentioned you are better off buying an altcoin that has potential to reach higher value before end of 2018. Altcoins like IOTA or NEO. Just my two cents.

I don’t think so that with this small amount you can start trading bitcoin such a expensive currency. First you need to make some money through services if you are a graphics designer and want to make some good designs and logos for the users and managers. If you have $25 just you should wait for the time to collect some more money or you can take a loan amount from your friend to start trading.

It's good that you are aware of Bitcoin and trying to get involved in it. Although $25 is surely a small amount since BTC has reached $10500 now but there are ways through which you will be able to earn more from crypto. Just follow the forum and look around for opportunities and I am sure you will find many good opportunities to earn Bitcoin and other cryptos.

Small or big amount you can invest in bitcoin as long as you know what you are doing and what you are into. This is a good practice that you can start investing in small amount and make it big later this will give you a small risk but you can learn from it.

that was a hard task to find a bitcoin atm thesedays, knowing that bitcoin is not verry popular on some areas. he can just buy that 25$ directly on an online exchange sites to save himself from a hustle. though 25$ is way to small to start trading on altcoins, so i suggest to op is to put that first on bitcoin and hold it for some time in order to get a high return on his invested capital while making a profit at the same time.

It will cost you ~20% of your fiat amount to pay the transaction fee to get your coins (independent of exchange fee).  In as much as bitcoin's price rises, if the fees rise proportionally, you will also have to pay 20% again whenever you want to use them.  If the fees rise more than proportionally (that is, if the amount of satoshis per byte increases for the average fee), you might even hold an amount of coins that drops below the transaction fee (that is to say, unmovable coin dust).  At which point you are the proud owner of some unmovable dust on the bitcoin block chain.
In other words, if the fees remain proportional, you will be able to get your full $25,- out of bitcoin again by the time that bitcoin has doubled its value.  If the fees rise more than proportionally, you might lose them forever.

Bitcoin has moved out of the "pay-for-your-coffee" era (before you could buy coffee with it in most places).  Bitcoin is now "gold" for larger investors.  Look at other coins if you want to do stuff with small amounts of money.  Consider for instance Litecoin (or any other "big" altcoin that isn't a clear ICO scam).

For $0.1 you do a litecoin transaction, while you're around $5-$6 for a bitcoin transaction.

Only $ 25 is a small investment. Of course, the so-called whales will only eat it. So if you have a big money then use it as your investment. Because you can simply recover your losses because your money is big enough. Believe me that it will only quickly feed on price drops.

Be more patient just buy bitcoin for now and hold it for good. Time will come that your account will rank up and for sure you can earn big money. Just read more about this forum and the bitcoin, and money will come for sure.

The problem I see is fees. You need to trade for free. I use limit orders on GDAX and there is no fee. However it’s harder for me to trade with limit orders since you are predicting where the price will go. Market orders are much easier because you can sit there with your finger on the trigger waiting for the drop or rise to hit. The fee usually kills what profit I would get though.

[sazon84]

I think the main thing to start. Even with such a small amount. But in order to raise capital, of course you need every month to add more the amount you can. You can just buy bitcoin (when he's even slightly on the correction), it still will grow.

[mathiaslivis]

You can do it as long as you stick to it. I'm also starting to invest $300, and now it's about 2000 dollars. We have so little money to try not to buy bitcoins as much as we can, because they won't get too much of the money or dig out some potential other encrypted currencies.

Nope, This is not recommended and not advisable. Apparently, Bitcoin is rising and price dip is highly possible and it may result into your loss, This move have high risk. As for me, I recommend and suggest that you can grow your $25 by trading altcoins, it may take time but surely Altcoins will grow specially to the altcoins that can easily be affected by Bitcoin's price, there are lot of Altcoins that have low prices, you can buy them but make sure you study everything on that coin and also make sure to know the risks of it.

[crzy]

That's a small amount but I still believe that you can still earn money from that. But you still have to learn more about this great technology, spend more time on reading here and forum, save money as you can and for sure big profit will come.
