I have bought bitcoin, and it is sitting there waiting for me at coin.mx. I have installed the tor package, accessed angora, and have found a product I wish to purchase from a vendor I've read good things about.
Now how do I make the transaction?
How do I transfer my bitcoin from coin.mx to my angora wallet?
Once I've done that, how should I explain my shipping address to the vendor? The "shipping message", angora indicates, is the first message to the vendor. Angora says its best to use PGP encryption if I'm going to give my address. I have no idea how to use PGP, and it sounds very tedious, so I dont expect anyone to use summarize for me what I;m supposed to write, but can somebody direct me to a site that'll explain this shit in the most basic way possible? Do I really need to do this PGP stuff?
Can I just this site https://www.igolder.com/pgp/encryption/ to generate ab encrypted message?
(Of course, I do have a pgp key, as that was required to register for angora. I get that it's my stamp, but I don't really know how I'm supposed to think about and use that.)
Lacking tor fluency, I'm just really lost and frustrated right now. I feel the way I think my mom feels when ahw can't get her phone off of airplane mode...knowing whatever the problem is, it's obvious, just not to her.
No. Please don't use igolder.com. There is most likely a court order against them requiring that they keep their site open even though they were supposedly going out of business almost a year ago. So many people have been using that site for encrypting info used in illegal transactions, it seems like it would be no problem for the FBI / DEA to get a court order for them to collect all unencrypted messages, private keys and passwords.
Try this PGP client instead:

Here's a guide for it:

If you want to practice sending and receiving encrypted messages, this is a good sub:
