Once you have a Bitcoin wallet, you use a traditional payment method such as credit card, bank transfer (ACH), or debit card to buy Bitcoins on a Bitcoin exchange (example: Coin mama). The Bitcoins are then transferred to your wallet.
Please note bitcoin transactions can not be reversed….so send to reputable/ trusted parties…who will meet their part of the bargain ie…offer the service the promised to give.
Before owning any bitcoin, you need somewhere to store them. That place is called a “wallet.” Rather than actually holding your bitcoin, it holds the private key that allows you to access your bitcoin address (which is also your public key).
A wallet usually holds several private keys, and many bitcoin investors have several wallets.
Wallets can either live on your computer and/or mobile device, on a physical storage gadget, or even on a piece of paper.
You can also buy Bitcoins via online market place where buyers and sellers meet and exchange bitcoins for KES via mpesa. You want some? Buy some #bitcoins Get started www.hawlast.com/bitcoins
