Ideas for newbies to earn a little coin

[skottiejay]

money is not easy

Ain't that the truth.

I'm just thinking of ideas of people just wandering into the world of bitcoin who don't have the money or whatever to invest in rigs and what not. Faucet sites are long gone, mining is pretty much dead unless you can put the capitol into it.

Amen brother.

You need a lot of capital to put into miners.

Faucets are still around it is just that they pay next to nothing.

The best way to get bitcoin is to sell your services in the marketplace (either on the forums or elsewhere)

While mining may not be profitable for many newbies, anybody with a desktop pc can do it.  This at least meets the criteria of "idea for a newbie to earn a little coin".  I mean, shoot, my daughter has a pc she doesn't use during the school day with a GT260 vid card on it that with cudaminer is lucky to get 40kH.  40!  That's crap.  But I let it run anyway and still get about 100 Dogecoin/day from multipool.us and since +100 Doge is more than I had the day before then I let it run.

Yeah, you may say the electricity cost isn't worth it and it's probably not.  But backing any new idea that could be worldchanging is rarely profitable in the early stages.

I don't trust gambling sites.  I suck at real life gambling when I can see everything on the table in front of me so the last thing I want to do is click a button on a website and hope the programming on the backend is set properly to mimic real life machines (which are only required by law to payout 75% of the time in Vegas).

I think we have reached the point where the BTC economy is too large and important that large holders feel they have to "give away" anything. Now it's just like $ -- need to offer stuff to sell, or run a business/offer a service.

If you're a good programmer who already knows something about integrating payment options, you can just pick up some jobs in the Services section and start earning some decent amount of Bitcoin in about a month. Otherwise, just do the Bitcoin version of a garage sale and sell some old stuff you don't need anymore.

Participate in one of those Newbie and Jr. campaigns. Go into it knowing you're going to get a crappy payscale, just a few cents.

Other than that, Bitcoin is pretty darn hard to get if you're not willing to make a stable business plan, rank up, or sell/buy things.

Similar to the gold rush of 1849 - it was never the miners that made out with the profit, it was the hoteliers, the retailers of mining equipment, and the convenience services (bath & extra).  If you really want to capitalize on crypto at this stage find something that fills a void and others would be willing to pay for.

join gambling sites that have good faucet ))

An awesome comboo is a gambling site with a high paying faucet! Prime dice is a bit low to make gains from.

Other than free bitcoin, if you're good at something (anything photoshop, graphic design etc) and don't mind doing some work you can earn some nice BTC.

Newbies can't really join the PD sig program, but the good news is, they can join the 777coin one.

Even if you have a big budget, it is very difficult to break even in bitcoin mining.
Altcoin mining is slightly better, but still it is not easy to get profits.

signature campaign is the best way

something fishy here, you became member less than 1 month
how can you have been paid several times by stunna? 
did you use multiple accounts there?

You could try to sell stuff locally for BTC on craigslist or the goods section on here. I've sold domains and simple websites that I made for BTC. Obviously though, you have to offer something of value to make BTC, and you usually have to spend either time or money to be able to make some money.

[skottiejay]

These are all good ideas to be honest, when I made the topic I was looking for ways to capitalize on getting some btc. I have some ideas now but it's going to take work for sure.
