Hello everyone!
i am new to BTC. I am from Pakistan and finding it hard to start with the BTC. Any useful information how to start from scratch if i am from a 3rd world county? Thanks a lot in advance.


You can try to start with faucet, once you have earn good, maybe gamble ..

Faucets are cent's per hour at most.  Why suggest a person go into faucet?   I don't see it making any money.

Can you show a faucet that gained even 3rd world earnings?  And if it did.... how is gambling going to help?

Hmm, I'm from a third world country and I am a witness of newbie bitcoiners that were addicted to faucets. They seems like dedicated to it and post their respective (micro) "earnings" on Facebook (on a bitcoin related group). I once saw there's a proud faucet user that he earned 0.001 BTC in a week (and he seems happy with it) Grin When they already earned something like 0.001 btc or above, they start posting on what "investment" site they can invest and grow their precious satoshis. Some also do gambling on casinos, but mostly they want investing on HYIPs/ponzis.

Faucets were gold to them.

That's because their hourly wages are so small that even that 0.001 BTC matters. Most westerners don't understand that in some countries 1USD per hour is a decent wage.

I think you are wrong on parts.  Some of use realize a dollar a day is HUGE in some places.  You could feel rich in certain third world countries with very small amount of money.   

But faucets bring cents per hour at best.  Even in third world countries if you make 5 cents a day for a 20 hour day faucet run... that is not to good.   Faucets just pay horribly.
