Hi!

I am new too, but i read and watched these 2 sites for the info i learned.. not super sure if its trusty, but its a start!


To be honest, this was the only site, imo, that explained everything clearly to me lol
http://techcrunch.com/2013/04/08/how-to-mine-bitcoins/

This youtube guy isnt so bad to listen to, gives decent advice without giving too much opinions

Ok so I have been reading and I am confused about storage of coin. I would like to buy and set in a cold wallet however this is where the confusion is. Do I need to create a wallet and print out info and store on USB? I doubt I will be a big time trader seeing as I can't afford much. I am in US and would be interested in and opinions. Thanks Mike

The safest way to store your bitcoin would be cold (offline) wallet or paper wallet.
You can create a paper wallet on bitaddress.org easily (offline for better security), or use armory to create an offline wallet.
