Donation questions

I have no idea about bitcoin so I would like to know they have a coin base machine at the supermarket but I’ll have to see how you use it it takes a debit card to buy bitcoin so I guess you put in how much bitcoin I would want to buy is there an easier way to do this I’ve never used it before I’ve never had to use bitcoin for anything I do, but I do need to make a donation so can somebody give me advice or point me in the right direction thank you!

Bitcoin ATM are easy , usually a little expensive but worth it if you have no other options.You want to have your own wallet to transfer it to . For mobile check out Blockstream green or whatever one would suit you. Do some research on how Bitcoin ATM generally work and you should be G2G .

For all new members. I found that cash app is the easiest though not anonymous way to purchase bitcoin. So if you were not so worried about anonymity, then cash app is relatively easy to go about it. FYI thank you

 
Hi,

I donated .0015btc on 10/27/20.  I see my membership status hasn't changed up from newbie.  Can anyone help me with this?  I'm sorry it's taken so long to notice and take care of this.  I've been sick.

I could provide a screen shot of the transaction if it helps.

Thanks.

Just give @2earls a poke. That'll take care of it. You should have a transaction ID that will solve the problem right quick.

I'm also not sure how much .0015BTC was on October 27. You need to donate at least $20 USD for membership. Bitcoin value fluctuates, so don't put a lot of time between transfer to your personal wallet and then transfer to whatever purchase you're making.

You did use a personal wallet, right? That could be the other problem. Don't transfer straight from a bitcoin exchange (e.g. Coinbase) to some place like DBG . (I don't do it for any type of purchase. I always transfer to my personal wallet first.) But they won't transfer the coin to this site and it would be a security hazard to try.

If you've got a transaction ID and you used a personal wallet....I can't think of anything else it would be. I'm sure 2earls will take of it if there was some kind of error though.

 
Thank you, Jesse.  I used electrum to transfer the btc.  I will reach out to @2earls.  I just don't want to make big stink about it.  I am grateful for this site and all the interactions I've had here in the last two + years.   I am just feeling low and having a hard time.    BUT given it's Thanksgiving! I am going to stay GRATEFUL and turn up some music!  :)

I'd say giving it a few weeks is more than enough time to qualify as Not Making a Stink About It :-) I hope you're feeling better!

Sure, I'm grateful for the site too, but when you send in your money, you want to get access to the additional content. That's totally understandable. The site is much, much more useful when you have a membership.

Do you know how to check your blockchain? That'll show you both the transaction ID and I think it will show you the USD value (?)...not positive about that. My best guess now is you wound up shy of the $20 minimum.

Oh, double-check the wallet ID you sent it to also. If you sent it to the wrong wallet ID, you're SOL. That's why so many businesses are getting into bitcoin: The customer can't charge back; it's impossible with bitcoin. Once it's sent, it's sent and gone. I think you'd have to re-donate if that's what happened.

I can't think of anything else it might be....that is really odd.... Keep us posted! And I hope you have a good Thanksgiving! This is just a shit year...I'm having a lousy day too :-P

 
@sweetjowe are looking into this for you.

A note to anyone who donates:

Please let us know if your account doesn't change status within a couple days after sending your donation. The newer the transaction the easier it is to find.

Also posting on the "post here only after donating thread" is yet another way to ensure that your donation is processed quickly and correctly. 

Thank you for your support! 

 
@sweetjo hope things get better. It’s a tough time of year ! I like the music idea!

 
@2earls let me know if I can help with any more info.  I realize it's my oversight to not let you know that I had donated.  I see the transaction in my electrum for -0.00188819.  I wrote the description as "Forum donation for username sweetjo".  10/27/20

Anyway, I need to get back to membership status as I am trying to get back into the game of feeling good.  Thx.

 
@FiggleGarts2 Hi there and welcome to the forum.  You must donate via bitcoin. The bitcoin address is located on the post here-  



There are also great instructions to help you.

Hope this helps. If you need more help, feel free to ask! Good luck 👍 

 
I downloaded coinbase wallet. I bought 25 dollars worth of Btc. Can I send it directly to DBG or do I need to make another step?

 
Hi can I send my donation from my cash app wallet or is that frowned upon I really don't feel like using one of these other coin bases and waiting a week for them to verify me?

 
Hi,

I donated approximately 5 days ago -- how long does it take for my account to update?  Or, is there something else I need to do?

Thank you very much!

Aim

 
I am assuming I can ask questions about donating here...  can I make a donation with Menero ?  And where would I send it ?  Thanks

  1. crimp @ crimp: do you live in a dangerous area maybe try moving to the country when you get back on your feet you seem to understant crypto beter then me so youll be on your feet in no time
  2. crimp @ crimp: glad youre good buddy
  3. CalFresh @ CalFresh: Thanks everyone. My family and I are safe ATM. @mellowella thank you, but they cleaned me out. the shelves are empty but I'm hoping to call in some favors to restock ASAP. @xenxra I will reach out to set up a secure comms channel for us. Thanks again all. Yesterday was tough, but the support I've received from those I can share is with has been a Godsend.
  4. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Mad love to you and your family @CalFresh
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: @CalFresh if you are able to DM me (in a secure manner) the transactions associated with your btc theft, i can look into that part for you at least. i;m still 99% certain if the fbi didn't discard my leads they could have gotten some of my coins back and considering you had your coins stolen within the us, you have a much better chance of recovery than me. unless they went through mixers i could probably trace them myself.
  6. O @ Outsider9173: @CalFresh Haven't been here long but I want to wish you a fast recovery
  7. crimp @ crimp: neck spine surgery 8 ribs broke and scalp split onen about 6 inches
  8. crimp @ crimp: need some help dude im so injured its not even funny dm me for details just need someone willing to help me fust for a week
  9. CnC5 @ CnC5: @CalFresh if theres anything i can do brother lmk!
  10. M @ Mokachin0: @CalFresh email me I may be able to assist
  11. mellowella @ mellowella: I will always remember what you did for me the very first time I donated. I have been waiting to pay that kindness forward.
  12. mellowella @ mellowella: @CalFresh are you and your family safe? You’ve helped me in a pinch and were more than generous, and I’m sure you’ve helped others. How can we help you? Does it help at all if we completely buy out what’s left? Maybe that gives time and funds to restock and rebuild? I don’t want to break any rules here, but please let us know if we can do anything. All on your time of course.
  13. CalFresh @ CalFresh: thanks guys. I'm pulling together what I have left and leaning on the kindness of folks who support me to restock my shelves so that I can keep the lights on. Having my savings drained and my security vanish in an instant is paralyzing and the repercussions will only be realized in the coming days and weeks. for now I'm just trying to stay focused on the immediate priorities for ensuring this doesn't. cause cataclysmic failure to the life I've built for my children and I.
  14. H @ hotdog45: @CalFresh hey man if I can do anything, anything at all to help you get back on your feet let me know. Truly my heart goes out to you. I sent you an email also
  15. G @ gfunkster: @CalFresh im really sorry to hear that. But remember karma is real my man. They just fd their karma for a long time.
  16. Telp @ Telp: @CalFresh Thats so fucked man. Im glad you’re safe! And wishing you the best. What a bunch of scumbags.
  17. 0 @ 0osten: @CalFresh wow man.....I'm glad you're safe. Keep us updated, prayers for you bro
  18. CalFresh @ CalFresh: everyone here is safe. I was here alone.
  19. CalFresh @ CalFresh: friends, about a few hours ago my home was invaded by two punk thugs with guns. They stole everything I had in my home: cash, electronics, and mags, and forced me to transfer $20K in Bitcoin. it is a huge loss and I'm still reeling trying to figure out what i.can do to recover. For now I'm just trying to secure what little I have left so they can't take anything else. I'm telling you guys cause theres not many others I can tell. please bare w/ me, it'll take a few days to get back up and running
  20. CnC5 @ CnC5: @xenxra awesome
