Bitcoin Forum

Hello all I am new to Bit Coins, needing some urgent help on how to use them!?

I have a registered Mt.Gox account, added funds, bought some Bit Coins but now what?

I am trying to transfer my Bit Coins funds from Mt.Gox into my shopping account for a "Store (SR)" how do i do that?

I'm not sure how Silk Road works, but when they give you a receiving address, you can withdraw your btc from mtgox into that address and you're done.

FUCK YOU! (ask smart questions please: http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html)

good for you! but i don't know, that answer to your question!

SR = silkroad. don't buy drugs, not with bitcoins or any kind money.

Yeah yeah I know there are no stupid questions only stupid people - in general how would I transfer my BitCoin account money to someone or somewhere? Is it based on a URL/Account Number when I withdraw?

Oh and kokjo sorry if I have offended you, thought I was posting in the newbie section....nevermind.

Please go on the bitcoin wiki and read how bitcoin work, how the client work and what else. Almost all your doubts are explained there

Go to mt.gox - click 'withdraw funds' - put a dot in the 'withdraw bitcoins' - how many bitcoins? and what is the address you want to send them to, copy paste the address provided by the person you are sending to and press 'send request'

You should donate all of your coins to the bitcoin faucet.  Send all of your funds to:

Sometimes I love how Bitcoin community cuts its own neck.

People say "we need more transaction volume", and "we need more non speculative demand for BTC".

Then a newbie tries to use Bitcoin and gets told to Fuck Off.  I mean can you imagine if you had a question about your credit card and VISA told you to fuck off.

Meh.  Yeah the questions lacked details and made it tough to help but it is the newbie section.  I know it is a crazy idea but how about we encourage adoption?

Have never used "Store (SR)" but most sites that accept BTC work the same.  There should be an option on "Store (SR)" that either lets you transfer funds there or pay for a purchase.  They will give you an address to send coins to like 15VjRaDX9zpbA8LVnbrCAFzrVzN7ixHNsC (but don't use that one).

Once you have the address, login to Mt. Gox use withdraw option and send the amount to the address you got from "Store (SR)".  If you need more help you may need to check with the store to find out how their checkout/payment works.

No.

A newbie come pretending answers and help without even thinking about doing the homework and read some faq and guides where he would find a better answer than what we can give here on forum.

Adoption? It require people that want to adopt it, not people spamming the forum just cause they have a POST button

Thanks to all for their replies much better than "FUCK YOU!" lol

At the end of the day what people use Bit Coins for is up to them just like real cash - was just asking for some initial guidance...

We definitely need more ABBA fans using bitcoin, though their 80s work is a little second rate. If he's called himself 'SOS' we'd probably be more happy to help.

Hey, if you need any help with anything feel free to PM me... I'll help as much as I can mate :)

Super_trooper - let me apologize on behalf of less helpful forum members.

PM me with any questions and I'd be happy to help you. I'll also provide my skype ID if you want to chat about anything/everything Bitcoin.

I agree.  The purpose of a currency is to facilitate fair trade not enforce laws or morality.

Cheers evoorhees and prophexy - ill PM you guys if I am still stuck tonight. No hard feelings, I am on an open forum which is bound to hits and misses from various folks but just thought that the "newbie" section would be full of silly questions like mines...

Catch ya soon,

Hey, guess what the whole point of this forum is? It's supposed to be a safe place for newbies to do their initial research, and more specifically, learn how to do that research. The proper response to questions here is to politely answer the question and instruct the user where to look for answers in the future. Had I seen kokjo's post before it was replied to, it would have been deleted. Unfortunately, I'm forced to do that more times than you guys might realize.

To those of you who were impolite in this thread: stay away from the newbie forum if you can't learn to hold your tongue in front of the new guys.

Oh well i probably broke all rules to be quoted

Dancing Queen would be a top choice too...

Oh dear look what i've started! Sorry CockJo and Gaybi  if I have offended you guys....... prob best not to reply at all or snoop around the newbie section!?

To all the mods - apologies, delete this thread at will!!!

It's fine - nice and entertaining - though I still think 'super trooper' is one of Abba's lesser works. Pete Townsend said that SOS was the best pop song ever written, and I broadly agree.

I would make sure that wherever you shop, that you aren't going to a phishing website.

For example, one certain store reported on by Gawker has lots of imitations that are fraudulent. But I have never heard of any fraud related to the address published by gawker.

This is really pathetic that a guy can't even ask a question without being told to "fuck off"  what is wrong with people ?  is this what our community needs ?

Sorry about that Super Trooper :(

I just told him that looking on wiki and other guides would give him much better answers than here. And our answers would simply be copy-paste of such guides.

Your first post would be correct if you said something like "You should check out the wiki or these guides (insert links), they're pretty helpful and should answer a lot of questions".  Instead your answer more or less calls the OP stupid for not immediately finding the right places to learn about bitcoin.  We were all stupid in the ways of bitcoin once.

im sorry. that said "FUCK YOU", i did have a bad day. sorry.
but still: please another time, use the wiki(https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Main_Page), or google, or search the forum. before posting stupid posts.

When I get out of Newbie Jail, I will call out any all posters who diss another poster.

Nikki the Bitch

I'm not sorry, he even insulted me  ::)

Protip: if instead of finding ways to change my nick to insult me you applied that energy in looking for more info about your questions, you would have already found all the answers  ::) But omg, that would be a clever thing to do...

Hey, what did I say about insulting newbies? I'd advise you to just let this one go.

peace everyone. :/

google is your friend.. don't flame guys :)
