Title: Best way to deposit BTC into my Silk Road account?
Post by: xjeallen3x on June 01, 2013, 05:31 am
Ok, I am new to all this. In my search of certain...I'll say...hard to find things I started seeing the words Silk Road pop up more and more until I decided to do some research. I found out that I would need Tor Browser to even access the site. So I got the browser, found Silk Road, and thought all my trouble finding what I need is over. Then I went to the deposit page and realized that I need a currency called Bitcoins (BTC) to purchase anything on the site. I have done a small amount of research on how to get BTC and it seems like the only way for me to get it here in the US is to go through a complicated process of turning my cash into BTC at some gas station/walgreens or some other venue and I'm not even sure that I understand how this works. So any insight that someone could give to me as a new user to the Silk Road would be extremely helpful. Thank you and have a great day
