I can’t figure out bitcoin!

[BrandonIron]

Are there any sources that take payment other than bitcoin?? I had a great experience with @SRx but they stopped taking western union. Any suggestions?

Learn to use bitcoin.

I spoke to SRx. They are working on a solution and will keep us informed. I would look at the banners on the top. Start with Alpha Omega. Work your way. Down. Quite a few still use money gram and WU. The problem was WU limits the amount of cash you can give without ID. I think it’s like 199 bucks now. So if you have a 500 buck order that’s 3 WU deliveries. Then WU limits you on how many deliveries you can make. Just a pain in the ass if u have a 800 dollar order…

Not to mention the very real and absolute danger of repeating the same or similar transactions, in person, likely on camera over and over again.

Yes @GearChurch

 

[Ominous]

I would suggest to learn how to use bitcoin.
I know it is confusing. Trust me. Took me awhile.
But I have never lost money. And all our UGL take it.
If you have any questions just ask. I’m more then happy to help explain it to you the way I go about using bitcoin.

 

[BrandonIron]

I would love to learn how, I just don’t know where to start. Any help would be extremely appreciated

 

[Ominous]

I would start by searching google to see if you have a BTC ATM near you. If so great. If not. Then will have to do it through an app on your phone.

 

[Ominous]

Also many ways to do it. I just do it my way.

I believe several people have done tutorials on it here. Get coinbase it’s the most user friendly one that I know of

 

[BrandonIron]

Thanks to everybody, especially @Ominous. I’ve figured it out and placed my first order using it. :+1:t2::+1:t2:

 

[Ominous]

I’m glad you got it ! Awesome.
You’re very welcome. Anytime, let me know if I can help.

Cool man! What did you go with? I started with Mycelium and it’s pretty user friendly.

 

[BrandonIron]

Blockchain and a Bitcoin ATM, which I had no idea existed… I tried mycelium, but I have an iPhone and I think that version doesn’t let you load directly through the app like I heard the android version does.

 

[BrandonIron]

So i’ve Been using Coinbase, and the hold on the funds availability is really getting annoying. Is there another app that will allow immediate purchase and use? I’ve also used the BTC atm’s in a pinch, but those things are such a rip off.

 

[Ironside]

They are a RIP off but it’s immediate and the most privacy you can get from bitcoin transactions. Blockchain wallet and bitcoin ATM and you’re gold. Just make sure you got the extra 10% to spend

 

[BrandonIron]

Yeah that’s been my go-to. I guess in the long run it’s worth the extra money. Thanks :+1:t2:

 

[PHD]

I never have any issues with coinbase it’s always immediate for me. I have my bank account tied to it. If I do from my savings account then it has a hold. Coinbase is really the easiest imo and for me lol

 

[BrandonIron]

I have my bank account tied to it too, my checking account. There has been a 14 day hold both times I’ve used it now…

 

[Ironside]

Maybe its something with your bank and not coin base. I know I have some cards linked to my account that I had to give authorization to my bank to run each time or there was a hold
