Title: btcQUICK - Used Bitcoin address instead of Private Key to buy
Post by: Catman Dude on October 02, 2013, 10:18:16 PM
Yes, a newbie to bitcoins here.  I bought some bitcoins at btcQUICK but I mistakenly entered my bitcoin address I have at Inputs wallet instead of a private key.  I don't seem to reach anyone at btcQUICK by email or phone.  Did I lose my $250 worth of bitcoins?  ???  Can anyone post this over at the btcQUICK service discussion area?

Ask the btcquick support to see if they can help you.

You are supposed to receive btc with a bitcoin address, not private key. priv key is like a "password", it's for accessing btc not receiving. are you sure you did it wrong?
