Introduction

@aarons No, I haven't found a cheaper way to figure out BC, @ all. I think you're a lot further ahead of the game than I am. I have only gotten so far as to set up a bit coin wallet, but actually had to have someone donate on my behalf (via PP).  I know that there is a member on here that you can buy bitcoin from for a flat fee of $10... But then you're right back to the same problem of spending more than you're getting… 

Everybody says that it's so easy, but I don't get it. I hate it!

 
Can't you donate with PayPal anymore. I know my year is running out and it's about time for me to donate. I am not tech savvy either, and the last time I sent bitcoin it was the same for me using paxful I think I was way overcharged. I'm still trying to figure the best way to send bitcoin. Luckily wonderfulvendors that usual do bitcoin have let me made other arrangements!

I didn't even know I still had a paypal until I made an order last week, lol. all I know is I spent $25 to get $16 worth of bitcoin, I figured after my donation I would have $6 left but instead I only had $2 left. I couldn't imagine what it would cost to spend several hundred dollars on an order. I'm going to do some research this weekend.

Greetings & welcome @ClashCityRocker!  I am a newbie myself.  Sounds like you have had a really interesting life. I would love to go to India and Bali!, Bali especially is on my bucket list. 

I know what you mean about bitcoin, I am absolutely clueless about it also. Your comment on signing up for night classes cracked me up, because I actually just ordered bitcoin for dummies from Amazon.   There are several threads and posts on here regarding BC, but I am finding that many of them are over my head as well.   One of the mods on here (PTFC) helped me out greatly re: making a donation today.  Perhaps consider sending them a message and see if they are willing to help you out.  Everyone on here is so nice, I really love this place. 

Oh, & as for your profile, I just listed my interests and hobbies....

Thanks RedGypsy.

i canna speak highly enough about India. Most things are incredibly cheap, food, hotels, interesting goodies(all top quality!) Aye this btc is doing my head in. How did u get in touch with PTFC? Surely nowt to do with the Jags eh? COYR! Seen some posts of his but i hate to but in. Dinna think i can do pms yet can I? Haven't quite got thru all the rules yet. Gotta do donation soon as, sick of throwing away good money on pish powders etc. All there is up here unfortunately. Been danced on so many times before it gets here.

Cheers!

Did you find a way to do it without it costing a bunch of money? It cost me $25 to donate $10. it cost me money to buy bitcoin, and then it cost me bitcoin to donate to this site.

Hey all. I know a lot of us are new to the BTC world. I am going to try to write up a "first step summary" in the Donations thread to help us who are just coming to the site. (I just signed up a few days ago). Look for that.

Also, there are cheaper/ slightly more efficient avenues of Bitcoin purchase-rates than $25 to $10.

Paxful.com is pretty good, you gotta sift through the many routes to find the best conversion rate with the lowest "fee". Other more central hubs like Coinbase, etc. will do better as they cut out the middle man, but this is at the expense of being subject to Coinbase monitoring, possibly using one's credit card, having to provide ID, etc.

It would be possible to buy an ITunes Gift Card at a grocery store, for example, then sell it off on Paxful for Bitcoins, maybe a rate of $25 to $18.. for example.

Hope this helps

 
Ya know one thing I can't seem to find right now, is a good exchange FROM a prepaid VIS@ Gift Card I loaded at the grocery, TO Btc.. :( I thought for some reason that would be widely desirable.. Similar to Am@z@n/iT00ns gift cards, why wouldn't a prepaid V1S@ card and receipt be as desirable?

Would it be acceptable to ask, if any members want to trade some BTC for a nice prepaid VIS@

I learned today that I hate bitcoin, lol. I paid $25 to get $16 worth of bitcoin, and then after donating $10 I only had $2 left. I can't figure out the math, lmao, but this site appears to be worth it.

Hey,at least you got that far😁,buying and using bitcoin is so confusing, which is why I haven't donated yet. 

 
Hello and welcome to all the new members!

As someone who just recently broke down and learned how to use bitcoins, it's really not as bad as it may seem. We also have a couple members who are selling bitcoins and I tried both of them and they were helpful and made it very easy.  I don't know why I waited so long to try it. Guess I thought it was rocket science too. All I can say is if I can do it, anyone who can read and type can do it too.

 
Hello everyone! I'm fairly new to this site. I'm blonde at heart, so trying to figure my way around is a bit confusing. Not familiar with a lot of the terminology, like bitcoins, etc. Hopefully, I'll get it figured out soon. I have already read up on some helpful information. I appreciate you wonderful people contributing your gems of wisdom. Glad to find a forum like this exists! Hopefully, I added this in the appropriate place? Did I mention I'm blonde at heart? ;-)

Hello Miles & welcome!

This is a great community & a really good tool for those looking for cheaper healthcare options. Some of our more experienced members give great advice. I am not as active on the forums as I once was but I have met many great people on this site. I try to post as much as possible but I am pretty swamped with personal commitments.  Hope to see some of your comments on the forum. 

Thanks for introducing yourself. Goodluck.

Hi everyone! I as well am a newbie and bitcoin is just frustrating and hard to understand. I’ve been reading for two weeks trying to figure it out just so I can donate to dbg. It’s amazing it can be so hard just to donate money lol! I’m trying to figure it out for myself but....wow! Anyway, I’m glad to be on here with you all and I’ll keep on trying to figure it all out!

  1. 3 @ 3ak: @xenxra damn shame, can't find any of the rc stims
  2. xenxra @ xenxra: @3ak mostly, will prob be gone entirely by end of summer imo
  3. F @ frozenSR17: hope everyone has a nice start 2 their weekend. "keep it one hunnid," as someone once said to me
  4. 3 @ 3ak: 4f-mph dried up?
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: pretty sure black also went rogue sometime late last year
  6. 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
  7. 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.
  8. 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
  9. 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.
  10. MOD @ MOD: Hello @everyone
  11. 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
  12. 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-
  13. 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
  14. 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
  15. H @ hotdog45: I have never ordered mags from him I meant
  16. 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.
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @hotdog45 isn't that ghost? he threw his rep in the trash and got blacklisted
  18. O @ oh be g: thank you! hopefully this will inpsirw someone!
  19. M @ Mokachin0: @oh be g check your dms!
  20. 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
