Thank you everyone for sharing. Hahaha I was asking about the coinbase to exchange. I am using green adresss as a wallet or blockchain info and also trying to learn about securing my keys.

I don't plan on doing anything illegal so don't ask. I just need some bitcoins. I have posted 2 asking how to buy bitcoins, it was very use full from full fledged member and I am thinking coinbase.com or maybe this. Lol. Lemme know what ya think.

Hi Everyone,
I am a new enthusiast of bitcoins. I would just like your review on https://www.coinbase.com/. How long does it take? is it reliable? Should I purchase it from here and how much identifications do I need?

whats the best web for poker in bitcoins??

hahahah very helpful. Thanks I will check up on all of those.

That's a very good point and one that I forgot to realize about the physical security of my bitcoin. THank you Rodeox for your help. Is there any book I should read to securing my wallet?

"I think a place like coinbase is a good choice to start with. It is a little bit of a hassle to set up and fund the account. But it is less hassle than avoiding scammers in some convoluted system.
You should look into how to secure your private keys for larger amounts and the security implications of online wallets. Online wallets are great for the convenience of spending from a phone but require trusting the host.
Accepting bitcoin can be much easier than credit cards or checks. You only need to show the customer your receiving address. There is no need to be concerned about identity like a card. Who cares who they are? Once the bitcoin is sent it is irreversible and you have been paid. Again, unlike a credit card which takes days to process.

Your business could also choose to have a payment processor, like BitPay, handle your transactions. They allow you to take bitcoin without facing any of the volatility. At the end of each day they deposit dollars into your bank account."

Thanks everyone for all your insights.
I am going to look into securing my private keys, whats a good way to start?  I am thinking of buying it through coinbase.com or localbitcoins. Is my wallet app secure enough?

   

I use USD. I thought about buying the BTC locally at starbucks or something. I saw a forum about that. I think it was localsomething.com. Where you can contact the sellers and meet in person.

thanks a lot guys. I did get an app GREENADRESS on my phone as a wallet. Will that do? I am thinking of buying 2BTC in coin cafe at the ATM. So there is no particular webstore to purchase stuff.

Greetings Community,

My name is Tashi. I just recently read about BTC and would like to be part of it. I have done some research... and i just dont know where to start. So far this is what I know:
1. its volatile
2. Satoshi created it.
3. Limited MS
4. Buy it from exchange.
5. Virtual Currency that is sent like an email.
6. Escrow every purchase.
7. Makes it anonymous.

My question is: Why do I need an escrow? I thought trust was not needed it? Do I need a computer to store my wallet? What wallet should I use? What is the common website where I can purchase goods? How can I accept bitcoin at my store? Where to create a bitcoin account? I know I am a complete newbie and you guys are not obligated but if any of you can help me get started, I would appreciate it and hopefully we can do business together or share information. Thank you. 
p.s I know its a lot of repetitive question, and I can google it, (and i did) but I am asking real individuals on their opinion)
