Title: very new - a good starting appreciated
Post by: stancoin on July 04, 2011, 01:20:35 PM
So far I've done some background reading, downloaded and installed a bitcoin client and it runs fine.
Certainly exercises the disc drive - seems it has to DL all previous transactions.
I don't pretend to know what I'm doing yet  ::)
At the moment I can't get a handle on how to actually generate bitcoins in the first place. So just to ask some kind soul
for a starting point as to the overall picture here.
thanks vm
