Title: Hello out there
Post by: TheGiant on July 05, 2013, 10:53 pm
Hi everyone,

I'm new to silk road. For the longest time my friends would use it for anything they needed but now I'd like to stand on my own two feet so to speak.

Any help with how to get started, how to get bitcoins, etc would be appreciated. This is all very new to me >.<

Thanks!
TheGiant

Lurk for awhile til you get your feet wet.
If you're an american you can always use www.bitinstant.com to get bitcoins. Many other ways of course but that is my preferred method.
Trust no one.
Reviews are everything.

Good luck and welcome!

localbitcoins.com is also an option if you come from a civilized country (no offense, just sayin')

take your time, spend a night reading more or less useful reviews here on the forum, maybe even take a look at the reddit sub dedicated to silkroad ( /r/silkroad if you haven't guessed that already ) READ THE BUYER'S GUIDE ( http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/wiki/index.php?title=Buyer%27s_Guide )

that's all


oh, and don't FE (finalize early)

DO NOT FINALIZE EARLY.....

Biggest rule you need to follow.
