How To Get Bitcoins (BTC)


Bitcoin is the new way to pay for goods and services.
Here's a quick introduction on how to get started.

1. Set up
First, you need to have a Bitcoin address, which looks like a random sequence of letters and numbers (for example: 14mq7mn1NDDBsdkP5cR6mhhKqGk75dAk9p). You can have many Bitcoin addresses and they are stored in a "digital wallet".
You can get that by downloading and running a Bitcoin wallet application (it usually takes many hours to synchronize, this is normal). Then you can create Bitcoin addresses for yourself.
For the PC application, the main wallet information is stored in a file called wallet.dat. Make sure you backup that file regularly.
Alternatively, you can create a wallet with an online provider, like this one, but you need to trust the provider.

2. Buy them
Buying BTC with 'real money' like USD, EUR etc. is the most common way to get Bitcoins right now. And it's certainly the quickest way if you need a significant amount of them (to make some purchases, for example).

If you wanted to mine a Bitcoin right now on your computer it would take a very long time and a very powerful video card (GPU), or  a few. There are several ways to mine and we have mining guides on http://sharelikespro.com
