Step 1. Go to VirWoX and and click on “Not registered yet” link.
Register an account with them. Fill out your username and email address. Fill out any name you like where it asks for “avatar name”. Once registration is finished, login to your account and ignore the message saying “your avatar connection has not been validated yet”, you don’t need to verify your avatar.
Step 2. Now login to your account and change your password. Login again with new password and click on Deposit button in left sidebar and add some funds (USD / EUR) to your Virwox account, using Paypal, Credit Card, UKASH, Paysafe Card, Money Bookers, Sofort banking or Neteller.
Step 3. Now buy some SLL with the funds you added in previous step. SLL aka Linden $ is currency of The virtual world, Second Life. To buy SLL, navigate to left sidebar and go toExchange >>>USD/SLL or EUR SLL, depending on your currency. We will later use these SLL to exchange with Bitcoins.
Step 4. Once you have filled some SLL in your account, go to the Exchange >>> BTC/SLL and buy Bitcoins with your SLL.
There are two options to trade SLL for Bitcoins :
1. You want your order executed immediately: In this case, you would simply accept the current best available rate, and place a “market order“.
2. You are willing to wait for an even better rate: In this case, you place a “limit order” and specify your desired rate. Of course, your order will only get executed if and when somebody is willing to accept your offer.
Step 5. That’s it, now you own bitcoins in your VirWoX wallet, you can transfer these bitcoins to your personal wallet. Just go to “Withdraw” on the left side and add the bitcoin payee address, bitcoin amount and hit the withdrawal button.
