Hey,

I'm quite new to this area but will needing to purchase some Bitcoins in the future. Do any people deal with UKash? Seems like this would quite a good way of obtaining Bitcoins, as its quick, easy, free and like Bitcoins, funds can be moved anonymously, so seems like to me they could be compatible. Am sure others have considered this, but am wondering if there are any legit active exchangers that provide this service, and if not, why not?

Thanks.

Hey guys,

Many thanks for the very prompt replies. Yeah I think my address did just change for the hell of it, as the only previous transaction was my free 0.05 Bitcoins, and I've already had 3 different addresses. But my coins have come through now, think I'm new to the system and it takes a little while to get up to speed when you first start using it. Will definitely do some more reading around though.

Cheers. 

Hi,

Is there anywhere particularly good or useful that I can read the basics of what is going on? I just paid for 12 Bitcoins from CoinPal and my Bitcoin address had mysteriously changed again, with my coins being sent to my old address...are they lost to the void now and have I lost my money? Why would the address change if there were no transactions taking place? Or do they do it randomly when generating coins as well? Sorry having some probably quite simple and silly complications here.

Thanks.

Okey dokey. Well I meant that Bitcoin thing on my computer. It turns out I've been selected for a manual review by CoinPal. Thanks for the prompt reply though, this is all new territory for me, all this talk of blocks makes me think of Tetris...definitely need to do a little more research on all this.

Hi there,

Forgive me ignorance as I'm new to the world of Bitcoin and CoinPal, but I have very recently purchased 12 Bitcoins, and was wondering how long it takes for them to appear in my Bitcoin account? Or have I missed something, it's definitely possible.

Thanks.

Cheers dude, think it was fine actually and it was more down to me not quite sure what was going on. Seems to be fine now though.

Hi y'all,

I'm very much new to Bitcoin, and while I am familiar with computers I'm definitely not as tech savvy as some.

I have downloaded what I think is the latest version of Bitcoin, bitcoin-0.3.20.2-win32-setup, but every time I try and install it on my PC, I encounter this following message:


Bitcoin Setup

Error opening file for writing:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Bitcoin\bitcoin.exe

Click Abort to stop the installation,
Retry to try again, or
Ignore to skip this file.


Wondering if any of you ever encountered this, and if so what can be done about it? Any advice would be much appreciated, would really like to crack this. Thanks!
