Title: Please Help ME with bitcoins
Post by: Sampelz9 on September 30, 2011, 02:42 am
Hello to all ,

I have been pulling my hair for the past 2 hours I can't figure out how to get funds from my bank account into bitcoins. I need to send the funds to a seller, but don't know how  . Please can someone tell me the easiest way to do this . I signed up at bitcoin7 , but can't figure the site out . Is there something else I can use that's easier that you can recommend ? Is there any steps I am missing ? Please all help would be greatly appreciated

Thank You

This website is a good starting point on how to buy bitcoins: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Buying_bitcoins

The entire wiki is very good. You can also check out the largest bitcoin forum at https://bitcointalk.org/

Here's one way, works, is as safe as most.  Go to Dwolla.  Set up an account. Transfer from your bank to there.  Then go sign up on TradeHill.  Set up an account.  There, you can buy btc with dwolla.  There are plenty of other ways, but if this shit is freaking you out and you don't know which/who to trust, this is probably as safe as it gets...not the fastest, but it'll do...

go to instawallet ... they'll give u an addy u can use to launder/tumble...

You want fast, you go to Paypal ... costs a lot more too...

good luck...
