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?
$25 is relatively low investment start. If you will invest in that small amount on bitcoin and hold it most probably you'll need to wait for long period of period before it will gain $500-$1000 profit. Lower investment will gain lower profit and the more youre spending high investment the possibilty of hight profit may achieve also. I suggest that instead of buying bitcoin today, its good idea to look and buy altcoin with a potential to compete with the other top coins at a lower price.
