Topic: finding my Bitcoin address (Read 449 times)
You can download phone app such as Coins.ph, but first register and verify your identity after all the verification process you can now use that app as your bitcoin wallet to receive money or use it to transfer money from another bitcoin service.
You should create a Bitcoin wallet first. You can download a software wallet, buy a hardware wallet, print a paper wallet or use online wallets.
I don't suggest you to use online wallets because they don't give you your private key so you don't have full access to your wallet. Paper wallets are private keys printed out on a piece of paper. You can only recieve Bitcoins and can't send Bitcoins without importing the private key to another wallet. If you are dealing with large amounts of Bitcoins you will need a secure wallet because they are securer than the others. If you aren't, I advice you to use an software wallet. It is easier and cheaper.
I use and suggest you to use Electrum. It is an easy to use.

I'm very new to bitcoin, and just finding my way around the site. When I click on "Buy Bitcoin", in order to see more about how buying works, I'm required to enter my Bitcoin address. However, I don't know my Bitcoin Address or where to find it. Can you help, please ?
