I would liek to bit BTC with a credit card. I basically jsut want to fund my mt.gox account with money and id like to use a credit card to do so. Everything seems so confusing for this. Could someone give me a step by step way.
The factors relevant to providing the right advice include:
- Where are you located (country)?
- How much are you looking to buy?
- What payment methods do you have available?
- How soon do you need access to the proceeds?
- Is privacy important?
The fees aren't trivial but you can use a credit card to purchase by using VirWoX where you can buy SLL using your credit card, then trade SLL for BTC:
