Title: Learn IRC first Post by: Arto on October 20, 2012, 09:09:39 AM I am so confused on how to get signed up on Bitcoin OTC can anyone help me? The website only serves an informational purpose. You cannot sign up or trade there directly; that all happens via IRC. Once you learn IRC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat) in general, the rest should be relatively straightforward to figure out.

Firstly you'll need to get set up with GPG.

(http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#bitcoin-otc) Then once you're signed up, have a look at this (http://www.ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/ircc-commands.html) to get you used to some of the IRC commands.

I don't use Windows so I can't make a recommendation. If you get stuck, you can ask for help on IRC: - http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#bitcoin-otc-foyer Title: Re: Bitcoin OTC Help Post by: LionHeart on October 21, 2012, 03:10:38 PM Start here: - http://wiki.bitcoin-otc.com/wiki/GPG_authentication#Third-party_guides So I have to do this before anything correct?
