How to Buy I/OCoin with Bitcoin

How to buy Bitcoin to purchase I/OCoin (IOC) via trading exchanges.

1- Buy Bitcoin.  This is the step most people can find the most challenging. But it is really quite simple to buy Bitcoin's.  There are many ways to buy bitcoin, here are the best known, depending on your location in the world.

If you are in the UK, then we can highly recommend using  BitBargain

Bitbargain is for customer in the UK, it is very easy to sing up to the site to purchase Bitcoins.
Also, the sellers on the site are professional and have to pass quite a tough test and lots of verification processes to be able to sell bitcoins.  So you can rest assured you are dealing with professionals who will make your transaction easy.

Most importantly the transaction is 100% safe and secure.  There are many ways you can buy bitcoin from bitbargain, the most used option is Bank transfer, but you also have many other options as seen in the picture below.


Then you simply choose what you would like to buy, in this case Bitcoin  (they do offer Litecoin and Namecoin also)

Then enter the number you wish to purchase and click "Find Offers".

The top offers will be the cheapest and each seller has a green bar next to their ID, the fuller the bar the better the rating, but as you will see nearly all sellers have over 90% ratings.

So, if you are not in the UK, but are in Europe, you will be asking how can i buy bitcoins.  We would suggest you use. https://localbitcoins.com/

Again, similar to bitbargain, First sign up.  simply enter what you want to buy, where you are located and select amount and payment option. Also, just like bitbargain, you will see all the sellers have ratings, so you can easily select who to deal with.


Also, If you are outside of Europe, then this is also a great way to easily buy bitcoins.

2- Sing up to Trading Exchange like Buy IOC on Bittrex or IOC to buy on AskCoin

Really quick and simple to do. When buying, you do not have to provide any ID documents, simply enter username and password and you will be ready to buy/trade.

Once you have signed up and have your account, go to the Wallet or Balance section.  Then simply locate Bitcoin.  When you first sign up to a site, you will need to generate a Bitcoin address.

3- Generate Bitcoin address

When you select bitcoin you will be asked to click a button that says 'Generate address'. Now you will have your Bitcoin address.  This is where you will send the bitcoin, you have just purchased.

Note: When sending Bitcoin to a exchange, it can often take from 30-60 mins.


Then after tis time, you will see you have your bitcoin in your balance and you are ready to buy I/OCoin. 

If you are new to trading, there are many guides on how to buy alt coins from exchanges, but it is very easy to do.

IMPORTANT: Make sure to enable 2FA protection on your new account straight away.

4- Buy IOC (I/Ocoin)

For this example, i will use bittrex.  You have your bitcoin and now you want to buy IOC  IOC is the trading name for I/OCoin.

BTC-IOC market on bittrex

You will now see this screen, if you are logged in.  Please make sure to be logged into Bittrex.




You will notice on the Left Hand Side.  Buy IOCoin.

You will be asked how many 'units' (coins) you want to buy and what price you want to pay.

If you would like to spend all your bitcoin in one go, simply click MAX.  But at this point, it is a good idea to set the price you would like to buy at. (BID Price).

You will notice there is a down arrow on the blue Price box. If you click this it gives you 3 options.Last, Bid and Ask.

You always want to buy your coins as cheap as possible.  So always select Bid. And your order will go to the top of the buying book.

But, like anything in life, you have choices and you may want to try and buy cheaper or you might just want to buy all you can straight away.

Most people know how to buy on exchanges, but we were all new to it once. So please. If you have any questions or you are new to buying bitcoin and using exhchanges, please contact us, we are always happy to help and you will receive replies very quickly.

5 - Family and Friends

By far the quickest and most secure way to buy bitcoin.  Maybe a family or friend introduced you to bitcoin and alt coins, theyare the perfect people to ask and to buy bitcoin and IOC from.  If you have this option, then it really does make buying IOC very easy to do.

I/OCoin, Limited Edition, physical coins, Slack communication and Bitspark.io

I/OCoin believers,


It has been a couple of weeks since our last update here.  Needless to say, we are working every day, over 12hrs a day to bring you the developments we mentioned in our new whitepaper, which can be found here: http://wookido.com/uploads/io/ioc_whitepaper_dions.pdf






The developments are going great and everything is on schedule to be completed in time, but as we all know in developing, that can change quickly, but so far, we are blessed with good fortune, may it continue.


 We wanted to bring to your attention a website we found www.cryptogifts.io it has some fantastic physical I/OCoins, they offer free postage and nice gifts boxes with all orders, worldwide.



They are a great gift idea, with Christmas not too far away now and i can assure you, having bought and received one myself, they are really top quality and feel great in the hand.  People have used them as 'Good Luck Charms' for trading and even as unique personal  playing pieces for board games like monopoly!

It is always great to see people create new gift ideas and we are always happy to support anyone who does something great for I/OCoin like these physical coins.

Also, to note, we have moved our chat over to Slack, the new communication platform, that is taking the world by storm. Thats why our bitcointalk thread looks quiet , many people are now over on Slack.

It is invitation only and the link here, will ask for a invite: Slack invite to the i/ocoin community

Plus, we are now in the voting stage to be added to a new and exciting trading platform, bitspark.io , we must say, we do not agree with their voting system, as you can pay for votes, we all know from the Mintpal days, that paid voting is far from fair and often ends up with 'bad' cryptocurrency being voted onto the site. 

Please see: https://bitspark.io/coinvoting and vote for i/ocoin today.

One last thing.  How would you like to win 20,000 I/OCoins?  (worth around 0.2BTC).

Simply head on over to our facebook page and enter the Giveaway, you will find the app, on the left hand side of the i/ocoin page.

There are 3 questions to answers, 2 ask for you to have a html5 wallet and a android mobile wallet, but we understand this is not possible for everyone, but there is a great video on you tube about the mobile wallet you can take a look at, to leave your thoughts

Android, google play i/ocoin mobile wallet demo

Thank you for supporting our coin, there are lots of big promotions planned and this will certainly take I/OCoin to a new level in terms of strength and investments.

Many thanks from all the team.

Cryptocurrency is continuing to throw up many more questions, than it gives answers.  This can often be said about the Whitepapers altcoins release.

I/OCoin is proving once again, it is at the top of the cryptocurrency scene with these new developments, developments that are in tune with what Etherium is planning, this is a big step for this coin and one that will gain the attention that I/OCoin deserves.



There is a new name sending system in DIONS, that is decentralized and also allows for the option of private transactions, ideal for when paying for good using IOC and not wanting others to know your true balance.

Then there is the fantastic Blockchain, IOC continues to improve. Soon our blockchain will have smart contracts and the ability to store and build on the blockchain, really advanced for any cryptocoin.





Not only that, there is some groundbreaking promotion coming to i/ocoin, teaming up with the music industry, bringing you new skins for the fantastic html5 wallets and also the fix for the windows 8 html5 wallet.
