    I won some bitcoin a couple of years ago on Beat the Prick

    I got a Coinbase wallet and received it. I won some stuff on here recently, I can't remember how I did it, as far as getting the deposit. I'm 53 and not real computer savvy. I'd be grateful for advice. I can't figure out how to give my wallet information to SBR? what a mess. SBR Drew was was the dude to help me......

    There are some very informative threads on it around here if you search., im a computer/technology retard and wasn’t tough.

    If you still have the wallet all you gotta do is put in a request and they will give you a address you just copy and paste to the sender. Might wanna make sure it still a good up to date wallet as I had problems w my 1st one and had to change to a better version.

    Funny when you log onto old accounts and suddenly see a balance by chance..

    Been there done that with pending futures on old books that I forgot about or when I left just a few bucks in a bitcoin wallet that I forgot to use.. Gotta keep track of this stuff..

    Coinbase I keep track of though..

    Another good resource goes by Optional on the SBR board. He helped me get started and was extremely helpful in answering question.

    You can PM him. He'll probably refer you to the threads Banker refers to first but if you have specific questions, he can help. FunnyB gave you the basic instructions so, if you want to just skip to the answer, he gave it to you.

    Thanks for the advice funnyb25! It was going to work then it said they needed a copy of my drivers license? I've got one, but didn't have to do that from the BTP contest. My computer is 8 or 9 years old and I don't know how to do the photo business. I don't have a scanner or whatever you call it. Looks like I'm screwed again.... being older and not computer savvy sucks.....

    Bro you need another wallet then. I’ve never had to give a driver license. I was hoping you had gotten this figured out cause I’m not that great at this stuff to be teaching it but seriously it so simple:

    Maybe download a new wallet? I use “edge” , super easy. All you do is log in and hit request and it gives you a address that you give to person sending it to you!

    Are you looking to pocket the Bitcoin, or do you want to use it to bet with? If you want to pocket it into your bank you will need to use Coinbase or Gemini to receive the funds.

    Now, if you are looking to just use the Bitcoin to bet with, you can simply use any wallet download (Edge, like Banker said, Bitcoin app, Blockchain app, any of those and click the receive button and copy and past that address to Drew with the same instructions I gave previously. Bitcoin app wallet does not ask for any info as it is just a wallet and not a source to deposit into a bank.

    Hope that helps. Good Luck

    I was actually going to deposit into Coinbase. I was shocked that they wanted my drivers license. I thought this was supposed to be anonymous, I thought that was the whole idea?

    He could also just get a deposit address from a sportsbook and have sbr send it there direct for him.

    Guy says taking a photo of his DL is too technical for him. Not sure I'd bother trying to educate him on stuff he is unwilling to try.

    Here, I created a little step by step for you as how I would do it to receive your Bitcoin from SBR.

    1. Go to http://www.wallet.bitcoin.com and download the wallet

    NOTE: It will ask you to back up your wallet. You want to write down the 12 word pass phrase they give you so you can access your wallet elsewhere if need be.

    2. Here is something similar to what you will see. Make sure you click the BOTTOM option My BTC Wallet. DO NOT CLICK BCH WALLET
    Once you click My BTC Wallet you then click RECEIVE.

    3. There is the RECEIVE option after you click My BTC Wallet


    4. Just click the barcode and it will automatically copy the address for you. Paste that address to Drew and you are all set to receive your Bitcoin.


    This is all you need to receive your Bitcoin from SBR. Free and easy and no credentials required. You can then transfer the Bitcoin to any other Bitcoin app/site, or to a Sportsbook.

    Good Luck

    You think the US government licensed a money transfer business that is anonymous??

    Coinbase is like PayPal or Westn Union etc. They have a license and need to follow rules.

    If you just simply want the Bitcoin into a book, then do what Optional said above. If you want it into a wallet you can control then you can use those instructions above

    Ya, I hear ya. But that took me about 10 minutes to detail out and I would have probably lost 2 live bets in that time. So it was worth it for me. LMFAO

    I suck with the complexities of Bitcoin further than just sending and receiving. But that part takes real ignorance not to understand

    Is this holding up all the college contest winners or just the SEC contest winners?

    If you use heritage or bookmaker or 5dimes or youwager or betonline, you can just log in right now, click deposit, select Bitcoin and copy the send address they give to you.

    Then paste it into a PM to Drew.

    Done in 2 mins.


    Then when you win, withdraw by your normal method.


    Plenty of time to work out your Exchanger account afterward if you end up wanting to use bitcoin ongoing.
