Donation questions

I have made my Electrum account and Coinbase account. I am in the UK and looking to become an opal sponsor so I paid £15 into my Coinbase account then sent it to my Electrum wallet. This is where I am now confused as it is showing up in my Electrum account as having a balance of 2.3674. 2.3574 WHAT? 

What the hell do I do now in order to get my sponsorship? Man, there's got to be an easier way. All I am needing is the UK email vendor's deets.
You can have the value shown in dollars on the send page, just click on the btc /mbtc key. If you are on Android, you cab download your wallet to your phone also. It's much more user friendly in my opinion.

 
@PTFC any luck??  Lmk if you need any help as I just came back here after a long hiatus. 

It is confusing that there is a conversion rate on the bitcoins!

Making it more confusing.. you can’t just send it directly to a person or email address after you get past the bitcoin purchase! It’s some long random letter & number combo.

Ok, let's try this with some pictures to see if it can help people out!

For this example i will be buying from LocalBitCoins and then transferring into my Electrum Wallet

1 - When you download your wallet from Electrum you might want to make some changes.

2 - Go to Tools(1) / Preferences(2)

3 - Set your currency by going to Fiat(1) / Pick your Currency(2) / Save/Close(3)

Now, that should be your wallet sorted.

Now i am going to LocalBitCoins to buy funds and send them to my wallet

Set up your account on LBC then

1 - Pick your Amount 

2 - Pick your Currency

3 - Enter your country

4 - Select your offers (Bank Transfer, Cash in Bank, Wire Transfer, Etc.)

5 - Search for sellers

6 - When you find one Click on Buy (6)

You will then be brought to the following page -

Enter the Amount in USD (Or ANY Currency) and as you can see above it fills in the BTC amount.

Now click on Send Trade Request(7) Then go through the payment method you have chosen and the funds that

you have just purchased will be in your LBC Wallet once the purchase has completed.

Now we must go back to your Electrum Wallet to get an address to send the funds to yourself from LBC.

Go to the Addresses Tab of your wallet and pick ANY address and copy it.

(DON'T TRY COPY THE ONE ABOVE! THAT'S MY PARTIAL ADDRESS)  

This is the address of your wallet that you will be sending funds to from your LocalBitCoins account.

Now time to go back to LBC to send the funds to your Electrum address that you just copied above.

Go to your LBC wallet (1) then paste your Electrum wallet address like above (2) then enter the amount (3)

Finally Click Continue and your funds will soon be in your Electrum wallet and ready to send...

To DONATE to the forum, you Must send your funds to this address -  3ES1EQU1x1uqbYpGFkiHtBCHuHmyDjrouh 

I hope this helps with the hardship people are going through trying to sort out there BitCoin.

Regards,  T.

I have written this in so many pms that I might as well post it here. Please keep in mind this is how I did it and by no means the only way. It's just meant to simplify what can be confusing or overwhelming to new members. 

First download a personal wallet from Electrum. Then make an account with coinbase and purchase your bitcoins.

Transfer your bitcoins to your electrum wallet and then send them on to DBG or the vendor. Do not send directly from the coinbase wallet as members have had their accounts closed for doing so. 

It's easy to find bitcoin converters on the Internet. It really is not terribly difficult and if I can do it so can you.

We very much appreciate the support!
Hi. I want to dontate but when I try to rund my intall wisard no wallet generation seed is blank? Is it to much to ask if u could send me step by step how to do it.

Sorry if this was posted already however what kind of wallet do you need to select? Standard, two factor authentication or Multi signature?

 
It was actually very easy after I found the bitcon adress to DBG. I just used paxful and bough a fraction of bitcoin and after that it was very simple to donate to DBG. Now I know how to do it and will donate more in the future but have to begin somewhere :-). If someone is  having problems donating hock me up on pm 🙂

 
Are they anymore options to donate to forum, other than bitcoin?
Unfortunately not @Ethan, but there is plenty of good advice in this thread and others. It really is worthwhile getting to grips with it, it seems really difficult, but once you do it once, you won't forget.

 
Hello !

I've donated yesterday and I wrote my username in the "description" field while sending the bitcoins. Is it the right way to do it ? 

Thank you very much. :)

 
Thanks for the add and I'm pleased to have found you all.

I have been working on this for over a week, but still have some questions.  Yikes, I feel like an idiot!  I downloaded Electrum and then purchased Bitcoins and finally today I was able to send over a donation but it did come up and say pending.  So I don't know what that's all about.  Does it take awhile to get to you?  Oh, how I wish members hadn't done charge backs with PayPal!!

 
Thanks for accepting my registration. No doubt I understand the importance of donating, which I will do very shortly, I just found this site yesterday and the donations seem a small price to pay for such an invaluable community. I'm not much of s computer person aside from researching, but I'll figure out how to donate by tomorrow. There's plenty of info on here showing how to do so, and if I have any problem I'll just ask! Thanks again!

 
Welcome Sensitive Gal!   I've been a member here for years and you hit the nail on the head with regards to the donations being a small price to pay for an invaluable community.  The members and the information here are fantastic! 

It took me a while to get a donation sent using Bitcoins but not because it was difficult it was more that they didn't recognize my debit card so I had to go directly through my bank and then they questioned the transaction.  When it finally was available to send I didn't have enough Bitcoins to send the amount that I wanted to send and I ended up only being able to send half of what I wanted to donate.  So, I'm going to attempt to send over the other half today or tomorrow.

Either one of you look at using a bitcoin atm? No bank accounts or anything. Just send the BC's from the ATM to your wallet..then to here.

Sen Gal, ALWAYS add at least 25% BC than you think you'll need because of the fluctuations.

Good luck to all!

 
just sent a donation a lil bit ago and a message over to admin and mods, cant wait to be back to sponsor status again!!!!

  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi thanks for the input tho I think I’d def go the route of using hcg if I do go w TrT
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: @maoi nah no fear of needles and if it made me feel a lot better no fear of being on it long term as who knows if my t will even rebound after 5 years on methadone not sure if that’s the norm I hope so…the more I research the more it seems like the best choice is to just go for it with TrT rather than trying to “middle” with Enclomiphene especially now that i know it probably won’t work being on methadone altho I am tapering off 5 mg biweekly so that’ll take a while I’m at 95 now from 120
  14. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain the longer you’re on it without using HCG sometimes, (meaning years) the harder it will be to rebound if you do come off. But I’m with you, at only 22, I’ve abused myself to the point I may NEED trt. Not to mention all of the benefits
  15. moai @ moai: @Layne_Cobain You don’t seem it, but if you are the type that’s afraid of needles for life, don’t sweat it. I’m natty atm, but from what I hear A) you won’t want to come off and B) if you implement HCG every once in a while to your protocol, you have a better chance of being able to come off T completely and restore all (or most) of your natty production. Of course, no guarantees and it is dependent on the individual, genetics, compounds and duration of exposure, etc.
  16. L @ Layne_Cobain: @tiquanunderwood when you began the Enclomiphene, were you already off opiates? Cause after further research I don’t think it’ll even work while still on methadone…I think trt with hcg to preserve fertility and ball size is the way to go for me. I just wanna feel better. Thanks for your input on the matter btw
