Title: hello there - new to bitcoin Post by: mdmc on April 11, 2013, 10:41:11 PM real new.. I just heard about bitcoins and am very interested in them.
Just wanted to drop a line and say hello.. Title: Re: hello there - new to bitcoin Post by: Crenel84 on April 11, 2013, 10:44:01 PM There's a not-trivial learning curve. Do your research and understand what you're doing before taking any major risks. Just my two cents....
Title: Re: hello there - new to bitcoin Post by: Mike Christ on April 11, 2013, 10:48:10 PM Crenel's right! You have a lot of reading to do ;D Or YouTube videos to watch if that's not your thing.
Also, welcome! Title: Re: hello there - new to bitcoin Post by: DontCallMeShirley on April 11, 2013, 10:58:23 PM Welcome. I find my btc related bookmarks folder grew rather quickly while learning. If you have a question, search the forum. There are plenty of nice people willing to help. But do watch out for the bad ones.
Title: Re: hello there - new to bitcoin Post by: Crenel84 on April 11, 2013, 11:08:56 PM If you can find a helpful community to chat with, it can help with the learning process. I refined my understanding a lot by participating in the chat on one of the get-BTC-for-visiting-sites sites. I'd imagine IRC could be just as good. Ask questions and keep poking at the gaps in your understanding until things start to really make sense. And, of course, keep an eye on the difference between facts and opinion/speculation.
