@PTFCI would really like some help using bitcoin, I've never done it before and it looks confusing.  Ive been a member here for a couple years and always donated through PayPal.  I'm still currently using my preferred vendor however not being able to see his recent feedback does worry me sometimes.

Hi, may i recomand you to Google (youtube videos) how to buy bitcoins. Thats how i started. And honestly i almost gave up becouse it looked so complicated and too much work. But once when you decide do do it you can, tey at least. There are good guides on google step by step. Now i have coinbase account and mycellium one. Oh and i remebered: there was advice that when you buy coins buy them using account (card) that isnt your main card. Like you know how people have visa, american, this cart, that card, but mostly all of their job pays come to just one card. So dont use that card but transfer some money from main card to secondary and use that secondary to buy coins. Informe yourself in your bank, they often have cheaper "packetges" like for students, retirement etc.

I was a sponsor at some point but now I have found that my messages are locked?

Wanted to reach out to Admin and figure something out, I don't understand Bitcoin to save my life but I am more than willing to pay extra and/or have another payment option available. 

Admin, hopefully you see this, get back to me, thanks!

 
I like cake too!!! And if I type that 320 more times I will be a VIP!!! Awesome!

Staying safe (for all of us) requires homework.

5 hours research and you will be sorted. I was overwhelmed at first, it gets easier.

 
@Diazeman you're absolutely right. I didn't get it at all. Reading on these threads and learning from all of you and I'm getting it. Became a sponsor again and even made my first purchase using bitcoin. It's so much safer for everyone involved to fo this route. Just take your time and read some threads and you'll have it down. 

 
No idea how to get there.  I been here a couple years and probably haven't broken a dozen.  I don't want to beat a dead horse or ramble. I help if I see something that I can. Help with.  IDK, just keep trying I guess 

 
@DV420 -- You said you're not able to purchase Bitcoin over the Internet. I'm not sure if you know this or not but you can purchase Bitcoin from stores in your local area like gas stations, etc. You can pay with cash or a debit card.

● LibertyX is a website that lists different stores and ATM's in your area that sell Bitcoin. Put your ZIP Code in the Search Box at the top and it'll show you all the stores in your area that sell it. Here's their website:

@Mike1982 -- I know Bitcoin can seem daunting and confusing at first but once you get started with it it's actually easy. I put off getting set up with Bitcoin for a long time because I thought it was going to be difficult. Once I got started with it I was kicking myself for not getting setup sooner!

There are some GREAT posts DBG Members have written that tell you exactly how to get setup with Bitcoin. If you do a search for "how to bitcoin" or "bitcoin instructions" -- search words along those lines, you should be able to find the posts. Many DBG Members have spent a LOT of time writing out GREAT instructions on how to get setup with and purchase Bitcoin. There are a lot of posts on here with information. Use the search box at the top of the page to do a search -- (magnifying glass).

It's worth it to get setup with Bitcoin. Becoming a DBG Sponsor is well worth it! You get access to more areas on the Forum, etc. The information you receive on here is INVALUABLE! Also, many Vendors only accept Bitcoin as their Payment Method.

I hope this helps! If you have any questions don't hesitate to send me a message. I'll be glad to help in any way I can. Have a great night! ☺

Terriffic info.  I only question the true value of using an intermediate wallet rather than primary exchange wallet.  All good content !

 
@audrocks -- Thank you! I hope it helped. ☺

You mentioned the true value of using an intermediate wallet rather than primary exchange wallet. If I understand what you said correctly, it's HIGHLY recommended to have a Bitcoin Exchange Account (Coinbase, Gemini, etc) AND a Wallet (Mycelium, etc).

When you want to send a payment to a Vendor do not send it directly from your Bitcoin Exchange Account. You send it from your Bitcoin Exchange to your Wallet. Then from your Wallet to the Vendor. It's an extra step but very much worth it! The reason why is because Bitcoin Exchanges will flag Bitcoin addresses they find "suspicious" and will cancel your account. It actually happened to me! I had a Coinbase Account and was sending Bitcoin payments. After a few payments Coinbase flagged a Bitcoin Address as "suspicious" and canceled my whole account. I can never open up another Coinbase account. I had to start all over with a New Bitcoin Exchange.

I didn't know I should transfer from my Bitcoin Exchange to a Wallet and then to the Vendor. Since a Bitcoin Wallet is not a Bitcoin Exchange it's completely anonymous. Your Bitcoin Wallet doesn't have your Name or Address. With a Bitcoin Exchange they have all your personal information. Any payments you send from a Bitcoin Exchange to a Bitcoin Address are NOT Anonymous. They are Anonymous if you send them to your Wallet and then to a Bitcoin Address. Every time you send a payment from your Bitcoin Exchange to your Wallet, your Bitcoin Wallet will give you a new Bitcoin Address to send the money to. From there you anonymously send a payment to whatever Bitcoin Address you want.

I hope I understood what you said correctly. If not, this is still good information for people to know. I wish I would have known it when I setup my (now) EX-Coinbase account! LOL! 😃

Thank you @spurnky for your patience!  
 

I was thinking about the relative risk of the two options....   1) send from exchange to final recipient, vs., 2) send from exchange to intermediary wallet and then to recipient.  

Suppose I send a dollar a week to the Snoopy for President campaign  

Under option 1 I have outflows of four dollars a month from my exchange wallet to Snoopy’s headquarters address. 

Under option 2 I also have outflows of four dollars a month from my exchange wallet to Snoopy but Snoopy has a different address every week.   Also, I have never set up an intermediate wallet and was uncertain that there was zero personal info collected (i underlined above).  
 

Thanks !

 
@audrocks  -- You are very welcome! Don't hesitate to ask me any questions. Any info I can provide I will gladly do it. Believe me when I started with Bitcoin I had no idea what I was doing! LOL! 😃 -- It took me asking questions and reading websites to figure it out. Once I did it was actually easy. In the end I was really glad I setup a Bitcoin account because many places accept that as a payment method.

In regards to what you said, you definitely want to do OPTION 2. I personally use Mycelium as my wallet but there are many great wallets out there. Mycelium is free to use and completely anonymous. No personal information is collected.

I use Gemini as my Bitcoin Exchange. I really like them. There's tons of Exchanges and the best one will depend on what Country you are located in and what features you want. There's actually several websites that compare the different Bitcoin Exchanges. I'm pretty sure I bookmarked them. If I can find the links I will send them to you.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. I'll be glad to help. Take care! ☺

You comment on posts from 2016, where you’re sure not to be bothering anyone 🤣

  1. Strawhat7 @ Strawhat7: Yo, whatever happened to Mr. Black? Just got a rando email from him after ghosting me like a year and a half ago
  2. LW815 @ LW815: Know what’s really going on in somebody else’s head or how much they’re really dealing with and feel like they’re left with no other options. Been a very sad few days but 2 complete (irl anyway) strangers cared enough about what I was going through to talk to me about it, though they owe me nothing and have no reason to help my personal pain other than the kindness in their own hearts. Just shows that this place is a real community, not just a forum of people who only care about themselves.
  3. LW815 @ LW815: Was nodding in/out the entire time writing those shouts and spparently was fully out sending the last one lol. But II find it ‘uplifting’ as two people I’ve never actually met and only know the others online presence through subscriptions, who I have a better chance of getting a handy J from Jesus Christ himself, both were so quick to share their own experience and wise words and assurances that things will look up and not to feel guilty or be mad at somebody for going that route - as you never
  4. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 meh, same difference. they both got blacklisted on here. wouldn't be the first time a rogue shop sent out unsolicited comms after the fact.
  5. MOD @ MOD: Hello @everyone
  6. LW815 @ LW815: Own personal experience with this kind of this type kind of situation and sympathized with my pain when I really just needed somebody to talk to. Both went out of their way to help a stranger in a time of need when I really needed somebody, and body to talk to. MM
  7. LW815 @ LW815: Sent a simple conf email and I just dropped a ball on them. I really just needed to let it out, didn’t expect them to reply in such a thoughtful way that it drastically changed the rest of my day and mindset for the bette . Above and beyond - and the last night while chatting with another that I knew had at least once one child,, so i wished them a belated happy Father’s Day, which again caused me to spill it all to them and again received the most thoughtful and kind response, as well as their-
  8. LW815 @ LW815: They didn’t need to. They could have just continued on with the nature or the main purpose of what the relationship between us is, I didn’t really have anybody else to let it out to at the time and they both went far beyond what I’d expect. Not that I’d assumed they’re cold/A-holes - it was just a lot from somebody who’s technically a competent stranger. A very close friend of mine committed suicide on Father’s Day and iwas emotionally wrecked witih nobody to talk to, and the first author just
  9. LW815 @ LW815: @Mokachin0 not really uplifting in the normal sense, but two popular authors on here took the time out of their likely very busy days to not only read my massive walls of text, but both also replied with the most kind, thoughtful and positive responses when I randomly dumped my personal problems into their laps
  10. H @ hotdog45: I have never ordered mags from him I meant
  11. H @ hotdog45: @xenxra I thought that too but after digging on the site it is chemical cabinet. Either way I deleted the email. I have ordered mags from him, but I thought you guys should know he's reaching out to people again. After reading the thread if anyone gets an email from him I would suggest doing the same.
  12. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 isn't that ghost? he threw his rep in the trash and got blacklisted
  13. O @ oh be g: thank you! hopefully this will inpsirw someone!
  14. M @ Mokachin0: @oh be g check your dms!
  15. O @ oh be g: these were instilled in me by a coworker who has had about the worst trauma experiences in life and he is still the most positive upbeat guy ive met
  16. O @ oh be g: btw these are actual good practices and help greatly if u form as a habit
  17. H @ hotdog45: Anyone else get an email from schedwick666 I haven't opened it. I remember he was on here but I cannot recall what happened
  18. O @ oh be g: and always remember to use any .... whateere it mayy be safely ad rememeber those who have passed. keep safe in their honor
