Title: Need Help Bitcoins ?
Post by: Blaineace93 on June 06, 2013, 04:23 am
I was wandering if anyone can help me out with my first pruchase on SR... An by help me out i mean explaining how I am suppose to get bitcoins and make a proper purchase from a vendor... I get it to where i need a program to have a wallet onto a PC to store, but the part that get me is how i physically get the bitcoins themselves... I have been reading alot on the internet that Multibit is a good program to use and that a money order is involed some how.... can someone help explain this in a little more detail (preferably step by step)

Thanks alot in advance these forums have been awesome with advice for a newbie like me,

check out coinbase.com. it takes a little while to get it set up, but the fees are very reasonable and it's very easy to use.

I don't see the need for the physical coin, unless you just want to frame them or something?
