Title: Noob questions (please help)
Post by: idunno on December 01, 2013, 07:25:22 AM
Hi everyone, I recently heard about this whole cryptocurrency business and I wanted to invest in some quark coins.  From what I've researched, this is what I have done: Registered an account on coinbase and waiting for bank confirmation in order to buy maybe $20 worth of bitcoins.  From there, I'd have to send those coins to cryptsy in order to trade into quark coins.  My problem is - how do I send?  What is the difference between the trade key and API key?  I'm kinda confused...

I just wanted to get $20 worth of quark coins and let it sit there.. if it grows and I get a profit then cool, but if I lose the $20, I won't miss it.  From what I've tried to trade, 100 quark coins would cost me about 21 USD on cryptsy.  Am I doing this right?  It's very confusing with so many websites out there and whatnot.

Thank you for anyone that helps!   :D
