Good day to you all here on SR!
I found my way here in the hopes of learning the system... this is all very new to me... and very impressive to say the least.
Luckily many Canadian distributors offer what I am looking for and am excited (LSD, mainly).
I was hoping the veterans on the forum could assist me with a few concepts im unfamiliar with:
1) all this talk about PGP security, using PGP, etc. It has something to do with encryption but as far as i can tell is not mandatory for shipping addresses? ???
2) BITCOINS! Man, where should a Canadian buy bitcoins? It seems that there are loops you have to jump through to buy bitcoins (must be purchased with cash, only at some banks, etc etc) and many of the sites seem suspicious and rather adhoc
3) and basically I can't find an idiot's step-by-step guide to buying on here... any help, ANY help would be much appreciated
Thank you very much, SR!
