So people are saying that the Bitcoin mining boat has sailed off. Which I'm starting to believe. An alternative is investing or buying Bitcoin. Someone told me to do this instead of mining, but how exactly can you do this? Any trusted sites? I'm not trying spend a lot of money only $30 to $50.
Coinbase is great if you have a bank account AND a Visa (they do NOT accept mastercard for ID verification!) If not, you will have to wait 4 to 5 days for your bitcoins.
Localbitcoins.com might be a faster route for you.
