well thats the whole reason for setting it up on your phone, is so that you can confirm the seller has sent you the correct amount before you ever leave the meeting area. if you want to make sure the funds made it to your offline wallet then you would have to pull up your offline wallet onto a computer, then you will have to get the wallet online so that it can sync with the blockchain (which represents every transaction ever) that has been growing since the wallet was taken offline. once the wallet has the up-to-date info on the blockchain, it will accurately show the amount of coin stored in that wallet, and you can take it offline again.

also be careful with local buys/sales. make sure you are in a public place and that both parties know exactly when, where, how much, etc before you meet. its easy to lead someone to a dark ally with promises of cheap bitcoin sales and leave with all their money.

First, you don’t buy public keys. they are generated by the software you are using as a bitcoin wallet. If you buy bitcoins locally, you will be meeting up with a guy somewhere then you pay him for the amount of coin you want, along with your public key, and then he proceeds to send you the bitcoins. the best thing to do in that situation is set up a wallet on your mobile device and make the seller send the coins to an address tied to that wallet, so that you can see when they arrive and ensure that you got the correct amount of coin. you can then send them to your other wallets as you see fit.

as far as online wallets go, you are exposed to the danger for sure, but as long as you send you bitcoins to an offline wallet soon after, you shouldn’t need to worry. also i dont see a point in using other crypto-currencies, but that is a matter of opinion.

hope this helped!

“Our pasta, who art in a colander, draining be your noodles. Thy noodle come, Thy sauce be yum, on top some grated Parmesan. Give us this day, our garlic bread, …and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trample on our lawns. And lead us not into vegetarianism, but deliver us some pizza, for thine is the meatball, the noodle, and the sauce, forever and ever. Ramen.”

The Flying Spaghetti Monster Holy Prayer – Unknown

Now that's a religion I can get into!

Faucets are not the best way to make bitcoin, and usually you do not make much profit unless you have LOTS of time on your hands. If you want to make some real money, invest your money (Dollars, Euros, etc) in bitcoin and hold them, then you can sell them when the price jumps up. You can also try mining, if you have the money to invest in equipment.

Mining is more of a hobby to me, i plan on saving what i earn in the hopes that one day i can cash in big. until then i will have fun playing with software and hardware! im definitely interested in finding a groupbuy for those bitfury sticks.
14  Other / Beginners & Help / Mining Startup on: September 12, 2013, 08:45:15 PM
I have been watching this forum since I started mining a few weeks ago, mostly in >mining>hardware, and finally I decided I would join. I have only had the opportunity to get my hands on one ASIC USB Block Erupter, but that was enough to get me completely addicted. Now I'm looking for another usbstick, and i hear the bitfury chips kick ass. any advice would be appreciated.
