Can we claim Lumens from multiple addresses? I use a Ledger Nano, so I have some BTC on a few different addresses.

xcoins.io should be easy to buy on (although you need to provide gov ID and selfie), but I wouldn't suggest selling there, as they offer no seller protection. (As a result, I've been scammed for upwards of $500, as PayPal doesn't protect sale of intangible items)
I wouldn't mind you using my reflink if you do decide to try xcoins (-ref links are removed-)
I have heard of them but they charge fees the lenders get for doing those transactions. And as you said it is not available to all countries where none trusted by them reside. I am pretty sure it is in their tos somewhere just the same countries paypal does not allow to have fully verified accounts. I think they are ecoins which was a bitcoin debit card available last year but rebranded to wirexapp. Their service is good if you are in US but any other country they are probably going to give you problems with buying on their site using paypal because of the chargeback issues those countries where they are not allowed to validate who they are using their paypal accounts when registering for a xcoins account. Anyone can verify this information to be accurate and correct. Don't even think that a verified PayPal can be used in place of a physical ID - every buyer I've ever had (probably ~100+) has provided a close-up of their ID, as well as a selfie with them holding it at the time of purchase. Regardless, PayPal will still disregard this as evidence in a case of a claim of unauthorized purchase. |

Any legit site turning PayPal cash into btc?
Yes, some sites (and users) have been mentioned above. But it's a terrible idea because PayPal is reversible. The people giving you Bitcoin for it will never trust you to leave the transaction after you've received your Bitcoin because Bitcoin is non-reversible. Because of that, sites will charge large fees out of fear of scammers and, for any significant amount, will require loads of ID to make sure you're legit. You should try a better way - go on an exchange, or earn the Bitcoin itself, or transfer for cash on LocalBitcoins. Hell, even a Bitcoin ATM is a better idea than PayPal. I should have mentioned that the BTC is held in escrow during the transaction on xcoins.io, after which it's automatically sent to the buyer after a payment clears. Once again, however, the seller is indefensible against a chargeback (of any type) on PayPal, so do not sell your btc there. As a side note, I also do exchanging myself, but wouldn't expect to be trusted as a newbie user. |

I'd start with the whitepapers. Get yourself a workstation, download the source code. Learn to compile the source yourself. Make some cosmetic changes, recompile.
Best way to learn is HANDS ON, IMO.
Thanks, will do. Not sure how or why I haven't read the whitepapers before - this is exactly the type of thing I was looking for. |

I've been dealing with Bitcoin for a long time now - whether it was gambling (I know), exchanging, etc. - however, seeing as I'll be going off to study compsci at school soon, and with the constant debate over the future of Bitcoin, I'd like to reach a point of "expertise," where I can feel confident participating in technological discussions about btc. As a result, in addition to the fact that I've been trying to secure an internship with a Bitcoin startup this summer, I'd like to dedicate the remainder of my school year (and free time this summer outside of my internship) to educating myself about the technological mechanics of Bitcoin and the blockchain.
Life story aside, I'm looking for any and all educational materials on the subject - I've already accepted the fact that I'll need to explore a wide variety of sources - though if there really is an all-encompassing piece of material, I'll happily accept that too. Please also feel free to make suggestions for the best ways to go about learning all of this, be it a course, a textbook, etc.
I understand that there are those who have spent years on the subject, and I don't really expect to reach any level of significance in a period of months.
Criticism and off-topic responses are also accepted, lol.
