&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
This page aims to be the best resource for new users to understand how to buy Bitcoins. The existing [[Buying bitcoins]] page is too complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Read [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/How_To_Buy_Bitcoins_With_Your_Credit_Card How To Buy Bitcoins With Your Credit Card], for information about buying Bitcoins with a credit card.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Counterparty-warning}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===PayPal===&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
[http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/2293/how-can-i-buy-bitcoin-via-a-credit-card-or-paypal You can&#039;t directly buy Bitcoins using PayPal], because it is risky for the seller, and therefore few sellers will offer this. There are basically 3 reasons for that:&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
* The buyer of bitcoins can always perform a chargeback and there is no way for the seller to contest that&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
* There are many hacked accounts and when PayPal realizes that such an account has been fraudulently used, they will also perform a chargeback&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
* PayPal doesn&#039;t like bitcoin, as the bitcoin network is in direct competition to it. They will ban accounts that have anything to do with Bitcoins, and freeze their balance.&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
Having said that there is a [http://99bitcoins.com/buying-bitcoins-with-paypal-a-practical-guide/ workaround] that can be done in order to use Paypal to buy Bitcoins but it holds within it higher transaction fees. Using the [http://VirrWox.com Virtual World Exchange] you can buy Second Life Lindens (SLL) with Paypal and then convert your SLL to Bitcoins. This process will charge you transaction fees of around 6% but will let you purchase Bitcoins pretty quickly as opposed to a wire transfer. The reason this method works is because you do not buy Bitcoins with Paypal directly, you only buy SLL with Paypal (which is acceptable by Paypal&#039;s TOS) and then exchange your SLL to Bitcoin.&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Note&#039;&#039;&#039;:  If you only want to take advantage of Bitcoin&#039;s price volatility You can trade CFDs on Bitcoin via Paypal on sites like [http://www.avatrade.com/lp/bitcoin-trading AvaTrade] or [http://99bitcoins.com/plus500 Plus500]. When trading online your capital may be at risk. Trading CFDs is suitable for more experienced traders.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Credit Card===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[https://www.virwox.com VirWox] - The Virtual World Exchange accepts all major credit cards (via Paypal or Skrill) and allows you to buy SLL which you can then trade to Bitcoin. Using [http://99bitcoins.com/how-to-buy-bitcoin-with-a-credit-card/ this method] is faster then most options but has larger transaction fees involved.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://coin-mama.com/ CoinMama] uses Western Union to allow you to purchase Bitcoins through your credit card. This service is not available in the US.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File: 6273907.png|20px|link=http://www.brawker.com]] Brawker is a very easy and different way of buying bitcoins. People can buy bitcoins using Paypal or credit card on [https://www.brawker.com Brawker]. With Brawker bitcoin buyers buy items at online merchants for people interested in paying with bitcoins. When they receive the items the bitcoin buyers receive the bitcoins that were held in escrow during each transaction.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Anonymity===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a huge demand for buying Bitcoins off the grid due to ever-increasing government regulations and private agency intrusions and discrimination against alternative currencies. &lt;br /&gt;
Due to the possibility of facial recognition cameras at banks and the paper trail involved with credit cards, there are very few options to have high levels of anonymity when buying Bitcoins those ways. DNA, Fingerprints, phone and internet records, audio and video records will not be discussed, but they all are possible tools which attackers could use to uncloak even the stealthiest Bitcoin buyer.&lt;br /&gt;
There are a couple known ways, depending on your location, to buy Bitcoins outside of the standard banking system with relatively high anonymity.&lt;br /&gt;
Buying locally with cash using a burner or payphone allows a high level of anonymity with the exchange being the weakest link.&lt;br /&gt;
Many sellers online will also trade Bitcoins for [[MoneyPak]] codes or other cash-like gift codes which can be bought at a local store with cash.&lt;br /&gt;
Another way to buy Bitcoins with a high level of anonymity is by sending cash in the mail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Exchanges===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For a list of other major exchanges, see [[Buying bitcoins#Market Exchanges|Market Exchanges]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Avoiding Scams==&lt;br /&gt;
Before using any service, it is a good idea to look for reviews and feedback from previous customers. This can be done by performing a Google search of the name of the website or company. The [https://bitcointalk.org Bitcoin forum] is also a good place to find discussions and reviews about services. &lt;br /&gt;

This page aims to be the best resource for new users to understand how to buy Bitcoins. The existing [[Buying bitcoins]] page is too complex.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Read [https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/How_To_Buy_Bitcoins_With_Your_Credit_Card How To Buy Bitcoins With Your Credit Card], for information about buying Bitcoins with a credit card.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Counterparty-warning}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===PayPal===&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
[http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/2293/how-can-i-buy-bitcoin-via-a-credit-card-or-paypal You can&#039;t directly buy Bitcoins using PayPal], because it is risky for the seller, and therefore few sellers will offer this. There are basically 3 reasons for that:&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
* The buyer of bitcoins can always perform a chargeback and there is no way for the seller to contest that&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
* There are many hacked accounts and when PayPal realizes that such an account has been fraudulently used, they will also perform a chargeback&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
* PayPal doesn&#039;t like bitcoin, as the bitcoin network is in direct competition to it. They will ban accounts that have anything to do with Bitcoins, and freeze their balance.&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
Having said that there is a [http://99bitcoins.com/buying-bitcoins-with-paypal-a-practical-guide/ workaround] that can be done in order to use Paypal to buy Bitcoins but it holds within it higher transaction fees.

This process will charge you transaction fees of around 6% but will let you purchase Bitcoins pretty quickly as opposed to a wire transfer. The reason this method works is because you do not buy Bitcoins with Paypal directly, you only buy SLL with Paypal (which is acceptable by Paypal&#039;s TOS) and then exchange your SLL to Bitcoin.&lt;br /&gt;
 	&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Note&#039;&#039;&#039;:  If you only want to take advantage of Bitcoin&#039;s price volatility You can trade CFDs on Bitcoin via Paypal on sites like [http://Ava-Trade.co.uk AvaTrade] or [http://99bitcoins.com/plus500 Plus500].

&lt;br /&gt;
===Anonymity===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a huge demand for buying Bitcoins off the grid due to ever-increasing government regulations and private agency intrusions and discrimination against alternative currencies. &lt;br /&gt;
Due to the possibility of facial recognition cameras at banks and the paper trail involved with credit cards, there are very few options to have high levels of anonymity when buying Bitcoins those ways. DNA, Fingerprints, phone and internet records, audio and video records will not be discussed, but they all are possible tools which attackers could use to uncloak even the stealthiest Bitcoin buyer.&lt;br /&gt;
There are a couple known ways, depending on your location, to buy Bitcoins outside of the standard banking system with relatively high anonymity.&lt;br /&gt;
Buying locally with cash using a burner or payphone allows a high level of anonymity with the exchange being the weakest link.&lt;br /&gt;
Many sellers online will also trade Bitcoins for [[MoneyPak]] codes or other cash-like gift codes which can be bought at a local store with cash.&lt;br /&gt;
Another way to buy Bitcoins with a high level of anonymity is by sending cash in the mail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Exchanges===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For a list of other major exchanges, see [[Buying bitcoins#Market Exchanges|Market Exchanges]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Avoiding Scams==&lt;br /&gt;
Before using any service, it is a good idea to look for reviews and feedback from previous customers. This can be done by performing a Google search of the name of the website or company. The [https://bitcointalk.org Bitcoin forum] is also a good place to find discussions and reviews about services. &lt;br /&gt;

If you can find another person that is willing to sell them to you, you can transfer him money via any payment method (including PayPal), and he&#039;ll send you the Bitcoins. The following websites can be used to find direct sellers online  [[Bitcoin OTC]], [http://localbitcoins.com Local Bitcoins] or the [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0 Currency Exchange Forum Section].

&lt;br /&gt;
===Anonymity===&lt;br /&gt;
There is a huge demand for buying Bitcoins off the grid due to ever-increasing government regulations and private agency intrusions and discrimination against alternative currencies. &lt;br /&gt;
Due to the possibility of facial recognition cameras at banks and the paper trail involved with credit cards, there are very few options to have high levels of anonymity when buying Bitcoins those ways. DNA, Fingerprints, phone and internet records, audio and video records will not be discussed, but they all are possible tools which attackers could use to uncloak even the stealthiest Bitcoin buyer.&lt;br /&gt;
There are a couple known ways, depending on your location, to buy Bitcoins outside of the standard banking system with relatively high anonymity.&lt;br /&gt;
Buying locally with cash using a burner or payphone allows a high level of anonymity with the exchange being the weakest link.&lt;br /&gt;
Many sellers online will also trade Bitcoins for [[MoneyPak]] codes or other cash-like gift codes which can be bought at a local store with cash.&lt;br /&gt;
Another way to buy Bitcoins with a high level of anonymity is by sending cash in the mail.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Exchanges===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Avoiding Scams==&lt;br /&gt;
Before using any service, it is a good idea to look for reviews and feedback from previous customers. This can be done by performing a Google search of the name of the website or company. The [https://bitcointalk.org Bitcoin forum] is also a good place to find discussions and reviews about services. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;An &#039;&#039;&#039;OpenCL miner&#039;&#039;&#039; is a bitcoin miner that uses the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCL OpenCL framework] to perform the [[hash|hashing]] computations. When used with a modern GPU, this can produce hash rates orders of magnitude higher than what can be achieved with a CPU. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Overview==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
OpenCL is a computing framework which allows programmers to write code which works across a variety of hardware, both CPUs and GPUs included. OpenCL was originally developed by Apple.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The use of an OpenCL miner allows one to hash using a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), which has a vastly larger ability to perform algorithmic calculations than an CPU (Central Processing Unit).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Requirements==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hashing on a GPU requires an OpenCL compatible ([http://developer.amd.com/gpu/AMDAPPSDK/pages/DriverCompatibility.aspx ATI/AMD]) or CUDA compatible ([http://www.nvidia.com/object/cuda_gpus.html NVIDIA]) graphics card.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The python [[Poclbm]] open source OpenCL bitcoin miner was created by m0mchil&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=1334.0 m0mchil&#039;s announcement on the forum]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; based on the open source CUDA client originally released by puddinpop&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=133.msg13135#msg13135 puddinpop&#039;s open source CUDA miner]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Subsequently the java [[DiabloMiner]] based on m0mchil&#039;s was created by Diablo-D3&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.bitcoin.org/smf/index.php?topic=1721.0 Diablo&#039;s announcement on the forum]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;. &lt;br /&gt;
