Usb Bitcoin Miner ! is that recommended for a newbie?

No. Even if you don't mind you will suffer some economical losses (unless you find block while solo mining), i wouldn't recommend you to buy more than one of those USB miner.

USB mining was a dumb concept to start with, because you need a lot of power to mine at least decently. Maybe back then USB mining was slightly viable, but now your only option is to mine with ASICs.

I wouldn't say it's dumb when it lower barrier to try cryptocurrency mining and used to increase mining popularity about a decade ago. And don't forget USB miner technically also categorized as ASIC, although it has smaller size/capability compared with bulk-sized ASIC.

If he's just looking for a novelty item and a fun quiet thing with no money involved, yeah, the USB miner might be a thing.

I see some Memecoin can be mined with ~350GH/s but I don't know if this altcoins worth to buy a miner for $335.
Therefore, even if this thing is possible, I think it is better to spend this money to buy those memcoins directly.

Meme coin in general is very risky investment choice. And aside from DOGE, trend of PoW-based meme coin already over which makes it even worse choice.
