I am looking to start my Bitcoin journey from somewhere that would be of advantage to me as the economic situation in my country bears down hard and with having family to Carter for, it is rather exhausting.
Without much physical mentors with real life experiences except for YouTube and this forum where I feel I can ask good questions and be answered well, am asking, which is the more lucrative endeavour for a newbie hoping to benefit from cryptocurrency at first between Bitcoin mining and Bitcoin trading?
Investing, that's what's perfect for a newbie just joining the industry, you can catch up with other means of earning from the industry in the future when you have understood the industry properly but if you're just starting then focus on investment. Investing has no stress involved, you'll just have to buy your Bitcoin and hold. After it gets to your targetted price you sell and either reinvest the profits or do with it as you please.
Both mining and trading are good means to keep the cash flow coming but I strongly recommended you shouldn't be much interested in cash flow at the moment. If you still want an answer between your options then I'll favour trading to mining. Starting up a mining farm is very costly that if you had invested that money into your trading account you would probably make more profits trading then mining (this can only be possible when you're good at trading). If you don't know how to trade then don't go for trading unless you're okay with learning before you start.
