Hmmm... looks like I need to get an Instagram account  Wink

One cool idea I just had is that you could do small giveaways every once in a while where you post a picture of a QR code to a private key.
You'd probably gain a bunch of new followers Cheesy

I am going to do that. I will start to do it when i hit 1k followers. However first i will need to lear about transfers with QR code. I have posted a question before too. There is still no answer.  Huh

Alright, here's a little tutorial on how to do a QR code giveaway:

1. Head on over to https://www.bitaddress.org
2. Generate a new bitcoin address. (move your cursor around until it hits 100%)
3. Send the amount of bitcoin you want to give away to the QR code on the left ("share").
4. Post the QR code on the right ("secret") on Instagram or wherever you want to do the give away. You should be able to right click on the QR code and save the image.

Note: Never use bitaddress.org for creating addresses that will store large amounts of bitcoin... if you use this website, you will be trusting that they don't store the private key and take the bitcoins for themselves.


Thank you very much for the help. I have got one final question. If i were the reciever. Where would i need to use the private key in order to transfer the amount into my blockchain.info wallet.
