Title: Hey Post by: rocket88 on September 24, 2013, 07:53:25 PM Hello World, (I knew that script would come in handy one day) ;)
Well, n00b pretty much covers it with me. My wife and I are wanting to get involved with BitCoin so here I am. I wasn't aware of all of the individuals buying/selling BTC. I thought you had to go to an exchange to do anything like that. As a result I feel like I'm starting all over. I have MultiBit running on a Unbuntu box but haven't created a wallet yet because I'm not sure how to get anything into it. I'm stoked to be on the forum and am looking forward to doin some BitCoins. Thanks, rocket Title: Re: Hey Post by: MAbtc on September 24, 2013, 08:28:05 PM Welcome to our community! If you run into problems when you get around to creating your wallet, let us know. :)

Multibit is a good choice, however, you might want to check out online wallets: blockchain.info & inputs.io are great and legit. it'll help you understand :) Title: Re: Hey Post by: pokerFace2 on September 24, 2013, 08:35:28 PM Welcome, buying/selling BTC from individuals is much riskier than from exchanges.

And welcome! Title: Re: Hey Post by: uininPeter on September 24, 2013, 10:36:00 PM Welcome
Hopefully you create wallet and fill it with some dust from free faucets just for testing. This is how I did it - hard to spend the dust though ;) Title: Re: Hey Post by: nahtnam on September 25, 2013, 12:56:07 AM Welcome! If you are in the United States, then check out coinbase! They buy and sell bitcoins, and also setup a online wallet for you! Plus they pay the transaction fees for you as long as you send more than 0.001 btc...
