GRAHAMGREEN'S EDITS AND CORRECTIO=
NS TO THIS GUIDE ABSOLUTELY NEEDS TO BE READ ALSO. SCROLL DOWN FOR HIS EXPE=
RT REVISONS, DETAILED ADDITIONS TO THIS GUIDE AND EXTREMELY IMPORTANT INFOR=
MATION written by a much more experienced roader whom I consider a true SR=
 GURU

So here we go:

1) THROUGH TOR go to www.blockc=
hain.info set up an account (use a mailinator or any disposable email to re=
gister)

2) Login to blockchain and click on 'Wallet'

3) Click=
 on 'Receive Money'. there you'll see your bitcoin address.=C2=A0 (a bitcoi=
n address looks something like this: 2tnMhKfSAf97f4wJcqTu6dr8toj6iaxy7y)
4) Go to www.bitinstant.com=C2=A0 =C2=A0(through TOR)
You'll see:- Pay From: select 'Major Bank Branch'
- Pay To: select 'Bitcoin Addre=
ss'
Underneath you'll see:
- Bitcoin Address: put your bitcoin addres=
s from Blockchain. best thing to do is simply COPY your bitcoin address fro=
m blockchain and PASTE it here.
- Amount: whatever your lovely heart des=
ires
- Email: put in a random mailinator address

5) You will now=
 be directed to a Trustcash site.
- submit your zip code and click 'Choo=
se Location' for the closest bank to you
- enter a fake name. enter your=
 mailinator email you used for Bitinstant
- click "Create deposit invoic=
e"

6) click 'Print Deposit Invoice'
- you now have your paper pri=
nted out and ready to bring to the bank.
- this paper has NO information=
 or details about your fake name, NO mention of anything bitcoin related..=
 absolutely NOTHING is on this paper but an account and routing number.
=

7) Go to the bank with this printed paper and cash
- give the bank=
 teller the paper. she will simply read the account and routing number off=
 the paper and take your cash. then she'll probably give you back the paper=
 and an invoice.
- if asked, simply say you're paying a bill. they never=
 ask.. never happens.
- absolutely NO ID is required. if asked for it,=
 grunt and say you never needed it before and you left it at home.. but the=
y won't ask. just never happens.

- remember paying bills at a bank=
 is an everyday completely normal thing. millions of people go to banks dai=
ly depositing cash into people's or business's accounts for legitimate regu=
lar reasons.
- also remember buying bitcoins is LEGAL. 

That's it=
. the bitcoins will show up in your Blockchain wallet literally within minu=
tes.

theoretically you could send your bitcoins directly to SR now,=
 but lets play it safe and "launder" your coins to blot out any sort of "pa=
per trail". The idea behind laundering your coins is obvious: erase the lin=
k between the coins and you. So don't be impatient / lazy. Follow these eas=
y steps to guarantee your anonymity.

1) Go to www.instawallet.org (t=
hrough TOR) and it will give you your own personal secret site with your ow=
n unique bitcoin address. make sure to bookmark this instawallet page becau=
se if you lose this link, you lose anything in it.
- instawallet is a te=
mporary e-wallet. each time you refresh the site you receive a unique rando=
mized bitcoin address and a new secret link.

2) Now go back to your=
 Blockchain wallet and click on "Send Money"
- simply enter your Instawa=
llet bitcoin address and the amount
- Send payment

Now your bitco=
ins have been sent from Blockchain to your Instawallet.

The next 2=
 steps are optional and not necessary,=C2=A0 can be skipped. BUT if you're=
 meticulous and rightfully PARANOID like me, you should continue with the=
 next 2 easy steps. If you don't give a fuck, go ahead and skip to step 5.<=
br>
3) Now open up a an Easywallet (through TOR) page, which will give=
 you another unique bitcoin address. This is your second temporary e wallet=
 address. (bookmark also)

4) Send your bitcoins from your first Inst=
awallet page to your Easywallet page.

5) now go to SR, and click on=
 Account
- there you'll see your SR bitcoin address

6) Go to your=
 Easywallet that has your coins, and simply enter your SR bitcoin address=
 and press send!

That's it, my darling friends!

Just be patie=
nt and within a few HOURS or less you'll see your bitcoins in your SR accou=
nt READY for your rascally crusades!

If you're truly of the deranged=
, super paranoid kind you SHOULD use a site called BitcoinFog. It's a servi=
ce that takes your coins and tumbles them to SHREDS, completely washing or=
 BLEACHING them for several hours or even days. your coins are IMMACULATELY=
 CLEAN.

you can do that instead of the instawallet steps or in addit=
ion to them. depends on your level of paranoia.

Some alternatives an=
d different options:
- Some people skip Instawallet altogether and only=
 use bitcoinfog alone which serves it's purpose just fine. Bitcoinfog is tr=
uly amazing.

So to simplify the whole thing, you have many formulas=
 to choose from:

- bitinstant > bitcoin software > bitcoinfog=
 > SR =3D EXCELLENT!
- bitinstant > blockchain > instawallet &g=
t; instawallet > SR=C2=A0 =C2=A0=3D=C2=A0 considered safe, fast and secu=
re. appropriate for most of us.
- bitinstant > blockchain > instaw=
allet=C2=A0 > SR=C2=A0 =3D=C2=A0 good enough for some, not for me. faste=
st
- bitinstant > blockchain > bitcoin fog > SR=C2=A0 =3D safer=
, slightly slower since you need to wait for bitcoinfog to do it's tumbling=
.
- bitinstant > blockchain > instawallet > instawallet > bi=
tcoin fog > SR=C2=A0 =3D=C2=A0 safest, ultra-paranoia stealth ninja mode=
, requires patience but provides the most peace of mind
- bitinstant >=
; Easywallet > BitcoinFog > SR =3D SAFEST also.

As you can see=
, you have different options depending on your patience and paranoia level.=


Bonus useful tips:
1) When entering bitcoin addresses ALWAYS COP=
Y PASTE them instead of manually typing in that long ass address. Always tr=
iple check you have the right bitcoin address as your destination. 

=
2) Never store bitcoins for long periods of time (for example more than 1=
 week) in TEMPORARY bitcoin address wallets such as Easywallet or Instawall=
et. These temportary wallets are mostly useful for moving funds around. If=
 you want to store your bitcoins somewhere for a long period of time use yo=
ur Blockchain.info wallet or just keep all your bitcoins in your SR account=
. They will not disappear ever from there.

3) ALWAYS ENCRYPT YOUR AD=
DRESS (PGP) when placing orders. vendors appreciate that.
some vendors=
 state on their seller page listings that orders will be cancelled if the=
 address is sent unencrypted.

4) Don't use empty houses or drop loca=
tions to receive packages. That kind of shit raises suspicions. Insist that=
 the vendors use professionally printed=C2=A0 properly aligned labels with=
 your address and name in all CAPS. If you're ordering small personal use=
 amounts from trusted vendors using your home address is much less risky th=
an sending packages to an abandoned house. Postal workers know what to look=
 for with these tricks. You can use your name slightly misspelled or altere=
d. Some people have reported success using names of previous tenants that=
 lived / rented your place before.

5) PGP is highly important. Never=
 underestimate encryption for sensitive information. Encrypt your address=
 when sending to vendors ALWAYS!
- scroll down to find links on how to=
 learn what PGP is or it's purpose.

6) - When you're required to FE,=
 please take the time to update your feedback once you receive your items=
 so others can read and learn from your experience. We hate seeing a vendor=
 with all 5/5 feedback saying "FE, will update later" and no REVIEWS about=
 the actual product.
To update your feedback, go to 'Account' on SR and=
 you'll see 'View Feedback'. There you can modify / edit your feedback. Alw=
ays think about the community and how to better serve / educate us all.
=

Basic information about ESCROW, STATS AND FE:

Another very impor=
tant topic for noobs to UNDERSTAND: Your buying stats mean so fucking much=
 for your survival in SR. If you're coming on here to scam vendors for free=
 shit, you're a piece of shit and your stats will reflect that. Once you be=
come part of SR, and you start purchasing your goodies, as a buyer you need=
 to follow the SIMPLE procedure of SR's ESCROW system. That way everyone in=
cluding you can continue to enjoy SR without unnecessary bullshit.

T=
he Escrow system is simple and brilliant. SR temporarily holds your money..=
 which means the vendor you are buying from does not receive your bitcoins=
 UNTIL you receive your order. Once you receive your order you must click=
 FINALIZE, then SR releases your bitcoins to the vendor. The escrow exists=
 so both parties feel relatively safe and comfortable doing business with=
 each other, preventing risk and satisfying both sides. The vendor is putti=
ng his profit on hold until you finalize the transaction, so you are respon=
sible to make sure your vendor gets the money he DESERVES.

The probl=
em is a bunch of lowlifes decide to NOT finalize their orders, so these ven=
dors are out on product and the coins they deserve. These kind of shitty bu=
yers are causing more and more vendors to require FE (Finalizing Early).
You will see the word FE tossed around a lot. FE means Finalize Early.=
 That means your vendor will get your money before shipping your product.=
 The risk is all on your side in that case. That is why we all hate having=
 to FE because of the slight risk to us. Theoretically a shithead vendor ca=
n decide NOT to ship your product(s) after you've FE'd. Technically he is=
 paid in full and it all comes down to trusting the vendor's reputation. So=
me vendors require buyers with less than 5-10 successful transactions to FE=
. Or a vendor could request FE for an international order. All depends on=
 the vendor, the listing and circumstances. 

*Added by grahamgreene:=
 "Buyers are NEVER required to FE. Finalizing Early is the choice of the bu=
yer - it is important for new users to realize that they are NOT required=
 to FE under any circumstances. If a vendor will not sell to them without=
 FE, they can choose to use a vendor that does not require FE. This is an=
 agorist marketplace, not a fascist marketplace.
On the topic of FE, if=
 one does choose to do so they are not forced to leave feedback there and=
 then. After clicking 'Finalize', they simply need to click on any link to=
 take them away from item feedback page, and they then leave their feedback=
 when they receive their item so as people don't see a load of "FE" feedbac=
ks."

- Never finalize early for anyone but the top 20 vendors I=E2=
=80=99d say.
=C2=A0
- Read reviews on the forum before jumping in.
The reason some vendors want FE is because of a few rotten pieces of=
 shits that abuse the noble, rewarding Escrow System that really makes SR=
 a satisfying stress-free place to do business.

That is precisely wh=
y your STATS mean everything on SR. Once your stats show you are a reliable=
 hassle-free buyer you can avoid having to FE. Remember that vendors screen=
 your stats just like you screen their feedback / reviews.

If you're=
 a shitty buyer vendors will simply deny serving you or make you FE. Plus=
 you're a scumbag.
If you're a good buyer with good stats vendors will=
 allow you to stay within escrow, and if you're lucky you might even get so=
me special treatment / perks. So work on being a good buyer if you're happy=
 with your goods / services received.

We have this ridiculously unbe=
lievable BLESSING to buy any drug imaginable with a few clicks, like shoppi=
ng on amazon. Instead of dealing with shady lowlife street dealers, we get=
 to shop for our goodies in a sophisticated way, knowing precisely what you=
're getting, with detailed descriptions about purity, brand names, and all=
 the knowledge we need to make educated, safe purchases. Instead of relying=
 on the word from moron street dealers that can't give you any of these lux=
uries. This is SOMETHING valuable we need to cherish and MAINTAIN. 

=
So respect the Escrow system, that's there to CONSOLE you, respect SR's con=
duct, and HONOR THE HARMONY.. so we can keep this thing going forever. So=
 we can have easier honest transactions with vendors. And so we can show gr=
atitude to SR and the community.

--

Same principles applies=
 to the vendors. 
Mostly we have honorable vendors that work hard to get=
 their good feedback and reputation. They provide us with good quality gear=
 and professional customer service. There are also few scumbag vendors sell=
ing garbage or selective scamming. The way our stats matter to vendors, the=
ir feedback and forum reviews immensely matter to us. We expect remarkable,=
 premium quality product and top notch service. We set our standards high=
 and there are many wonderful vendors that can accommodate our refined crav=
ings and experienced palettes with GOOD SHIT. Those vendors get the well de=
served 5/5 feedback and have the forums buzzing like crazy spreading the wo=
rd..

When you're looking for a vendor, besides the obvious best sell=
ing listings that dominate the first pages, search the forums for more deta=
iled in depth reviews..
You can find each drug has it's "vendor review=
 thread".=C2=A0 Those threads are packed with amazing posts by amazing peop=
le. Here in the forun you can find out about new vendors just setting up sh=
op with OUTSTANDING products. So use these forums to find the hidden gems,=
 new vendors that have FIRE shit, that want your business so their feedback=
 can grow. 

Lets say your order doesn't arrive or something went wro=
ng, that is what the RESOLVE button is for. That will prompt a mini chat ty=
pe interface between you and the vendor allowing some back-n-forth discussi=
on regarding partial or full refunds, reships, or anything else that might=
 remedy the problem. Good vendors truly care about their customers so befor=
e starting a thread bashing a vendor or giving negative feedback, message=
 him/her first or go through the RESOLVE process to hopefully find a suitab=
le solution.
Don't make a habit of asking for refunds unless it us truly=
 genuinely necessary. Because REMEMBER: having too many refunds, or a reocc=
urring unusual patterns of problematic complaints will negatively affect yo=
ur stats!

SCAMMERS, ETC:
Here on SR we are a special well-bred,=
 noble breed of sophisticated drug user, defying all logic and stigma that=
 the typical drug user carries.. we try our best to maintain the MUTUAL RES=
PECT and courtesy between vendor and buyer. 
unfortunately there will al=
ways be pieces of shits trying to run cons and scam. whether it's on SR, or=
 in the streets. in the streets at least we're able to toss medium sized br=
icks directly towards their chins or jaw, but here we have something else.<=
br>
This is very important to UNDERSTAND: scamming and any monkey busine=
ss doesn't fly here. If you have any shitty intentions I'll clearly explain=
 why you SHOULDN'T EVEN DARE OR ATTEMPT TO SCAM, or play games with vendors=
:

The vendors have their own private forum. In their forum they have=
 a BLACKLIST of BANNED CUSTOMERS that all vendors monitor and post in regul=
arly. Once you're in this list you're fucked.
Any buyer on here attempti=
ng to scam, not finalize their orders, score free drugs, or ANY other types=
 of remotely shady / scummy bullshit acts, will simply be ADDED and permane=
ntly LOGGED into this infamous BLACKLIST DATABASE of customers NEVER to dea=
l with. But wait, not only your username will be posted but your NAME AND=
 ADDRESS too!
even if you re register new SR accounts, your address / na=
me will still be on this list. This is to truly keep these shameless, thiev=
ing scoundrels / rodents away from our loving community.

There you=
 have it!

Eat your vegetables, take your multivitamin and stay hydra=
ted always.

love,
mrdobolina

One of our brillia= nt, more experienced superstar posters ' GRAHAMGREENE ', expanded, clarifie= d and properly CORRECTED some of the info from my guide above.

THIS INFORMATION IS VERY IM= PORTANT AND WILL GIVE YOUR FURTHER INSIGHT:
---------

It should= be noted that Mt.Gox only freezes your account when you access it via TOR,= but funds will be released once you verify your identity with them; it is= possible to gain access to your funds in Mt.Gox, but you have to give up= your anonymity to do so. If this happens, verify your identity, retrieve= your Bitcoin, then tumble the fuck out of them in order to remove any link= s to the Bitcoin you bought on Mt.Gox and the Bitcoin you send to SR. There= is nothing illegal about buying Bitcoin, but it is illegal to use them or= any method of payment to buy illegal drugs.

blockchain.info, like= all online wallets, can not be trusted 100%. There is no guarantee that th= ey won't run off with your Bitcoin at any time. The safest place for your= Bitcoin is in your Bitcoin client on your own computer, encrypted and back= ed up regularly. There are guides on how to do this on the Bitcoin wiki:https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Securing_your_wallet

=C2=A0 =C2=A0If you're trul= y of the deranged, extremely super paranoid kind you can ALSO use a site ca= lled bitcoin fog. It's a free service that takes your coins and tumbles the= m to death, completely washing or BLEACHING them for a few hours. once it's= done your coins are IMMACULATELY CLEAN.
=C2=A0 =C2=A0you can do that in= stead of the instawallet steps or in addition to them. depends on your leve= l of paranoia.

It is advisable to tumble all Bitcoin that you don= 't want traced back to you. Not necessary, but advisable.
BitcoinFog is= not a free service:
The service takes 1%-3% (randomized for obscurity)= fee on each deposit.
No other fees are in place, no complex calculation= s based on the number of withdraws or similar.
Minimum withdraw amount= is 1.00 BTC.

The method to use BitcoinFog securely is below, taken= directly from their clearnet website (www.bitcoinfog.com):
After a coup= le of network confirmations, your money is registered on your Fog account,= and you can schedule withdrawals. Each withdrawal will be split in a rando= m number of payouts, depending on the amount, and the relative size of each= payout will be randomized as well. Even the timing of those payouts will= be randomly spread out over a period of time you will specify.

Idea= lly you should deposit an amount of bitcoins to the Fog, wait some time (wh= ich will depend on how many users are using the service, right now in the= starting phase we recommend a week) and request a withdrawal, which will= not have the same amount as the original deposit, leaving some funds in th= e Fog.

Then you should deposit another batch of bitcoins and withdra= w yet another amount, again different from the amount you have deposited.= This time it can be lower than deposited, or higher, adding the funds you= have left from the previous deposit.

Alway= s triple check you have the right bitcoin address as your destination. Imag= ine sending 100 BTC to a bitcoin address that has 1 wrong digit or letter..= you're fucked.

Whilst it seems better to copy and paste your= Bitcoin address, there have been cases in the past whereby the person was= sending Bitcoin to a certain address by copying and pasting the address in= to the necessary fields, but due to their computer being compromised, they= pasted a different Bitcoin address. What this exploit did was change the= address on the clipboard once it had been copied, and when the user pasted= the Bitcoin address into their client or E-Wallet, they were actually past= ing the attacker's address. As you said, you should triple check you have= the right address, but verify it visually with first, middle and last 4 di= gits before hitting the send button.
bitcoin-qt, the computer based clie= nt, doesn't allow you to send to an address shorter than 34 characters - I'= m unsure if E-Wallets do the same, but I would assume so as transfers can't= be sent to an address shorter than 34 characters, unless you input 4 or 5= characters of a first-bit address.

It would also be prudent after= hitting "Get a new address" in both your Bitcoin client and your SR accoun= t to check that address on blockexplorer.com or blockchain.info to ensure= it has never been used on the network before.

I personally have never received any mail with= my name and address in capital letters - others may have, so my word on th= is point should not be taken as gospel, but I would imagine that most busin= ess mail is sent with the customer's name and address in lowercase, with ca= pitalisation only used in the necessary places. Some postal services did re= commend in the past that details be in caps so as the machine could read it= more easily, but with the advent of modern scanning technology this is no= longer a necessity, and I believe it would make the letter / package stand= out amongst your other mail.

Never misspell or alter your name. You= want your order to blend in with your other mail as much as possible. Your= mailman or mailwoman will notice a misspelled name; the first time they ma= y shrug it off, but if the see it repeatedly they may think something is up= .
Put it this way: if you were ordering something from the likes of Amaz= on or ebay, wouldn't you be sure to spell your name correctly? Your mail ha= s to look like any other online purchase. Some people try to combine a miss= pelled name with a "someone's trying to frame me" excuse. If someone were= trying to frame you with drugs that they likely spent money on, it'll be= someone that has a vendetta against you. You can be damn sure they'll Face= book or Google you to ensure they spell your name correctly so the "Look,= they spelled my name wrong, I'm being framed!" excuse goes out the window.=

Using the name of a previous tenant is risky as they may have set= up mail forwarding. Some people still receive mail for previous tenants,= but mail forwarding doesn't always forward all mail (junkmail etc. is ofte= n still sent to the tenant's previous address.) By doing this, you risk you= r purchase being forwarded to the ex-tenant.
Best case scenario: they us= e drugs and think it's awesome that someone sent them a freebie.
Worst= case scenario: they receive a package of drugs or white powder in the mail= and immediately call the police who see your address on the package as it= was forwarded, thereby putting your address on their radar.

ALWAYS= use your real name and real address for orders. Some have had success with= P.O. boxes opened up with fake ID's. I have no experience with that though= so I can't comment on it - again, a search of the forums will throw up thr= eads with the necessary information.

= =C2=A0 =C2=A0Lets say your order doesn't arrive or something went wrong, th= at is what the RESOLVE button is for.

Just wanted to add a bit he= re about Resolution and Auto-Finalization:

If your order has not arr= ived after about 13 days, hit the Resolve button. This will take your order= to the Resolution Center, as orngecapsule has already outlined. Here you= will be given the option of asking the vendor for a refund, asking for a= re-ship, extending the time-frame for your order to reach you or come to= some other agreement with your vendor. Personally, I always extend by anot= her 5 - 7 days because the postal service, whilst usually fairly efficient,= does occasionally take longer than expected. If needs-be, I will extend ag= ain.

The initial time extension begins at the end of the 17 day peri= od (when your vendor marks your order as 'in transit', it will be 17 days= before the order auto-finalizes) so if you enter resolution on day 13 and= offer a 7 day extension, it will be 11 days (the 4 days left out of the 17= day period, plus the 7 days you're extending by) before it comes the atten= tion of Resolution Center administrators again. You can ask to change the= terms of resolution at any time, and you can also Finalize at any time if= your product has arrived and the Resolution process will automatically be= closed.

Always enter Resolution a couple of days before the auto-fi= nalization date. One of the things vendors hate most is expecting their mon= ey after the 17 day period, only for the buyer to enter resolution and prop= ose an extension 2 hours before auto-finalization. If you haven't logged in= for a few days and it IS a couple of hours before finalization, hit 'resol= ve' and explain in the note section that you hadn't logged in, apologize fo= r entering resolution so close to the auto-finalization date and propose a= time extension. Once an order is in the resolution center it will not auto= -finalize.

If a % refund is requested and the amount of the refund= is disputed by the vendor, the matter will be settled by the administrator= dealing with the resolution. If the vendor has a specific refund policy,= then you have agreed to that upon ordering and that is the refund that you= will receive, if any. If the vendor can produce a DCN proving that the ite= m in question was sent, then the proof backs up the vendor and SR will usua= lly side with them. However, the reputation of both the member and the vend= or and their respective Purchasing / Selling stats will also weigh in on th= e administrator's decision.

=C2=A0 =C2= =A01) When you're required to FE, you're forced to leave feedback before re= ceiving your product. Most people just write: "FE, will update when arrives= " but they never actually update that feedback. Please take the time to upd= ate your feedback once you receive your items so others can read and learn= from your experience. We hate seeing a vendor with all 5/5 feedback saying= "FE, will update later" and no REVIEWS about the actual product.
=C2=A0= =C2=A0To update your feedback, go to 'Account' on SR and you'll see 'View= Feedback'. There you can modify / edit your feedback. Always think about= the community and how to better serve us all.

On the topic of FE= , if one does choose to Finalize Early they are not forced to leave feedbac= k there and then. After clicking 'Finalize', they simply need to click on= any link to take them away from item feedback page, and they can then leav= e their feedback when they receive their item. This prevents a load of "FE,= will update when received" etc. feedbacks on the vendor's page.

BRAINWALLET.ORG<= br>
http://brainwallet.org/ - The most secure and paranoid option of all= is the brain wallet =E2=80=93 storing a bitcoin address and private key en= tirely in your brain. This is easier than it sounds: a private key is 256= bits long, so it is about as hard to memorize as 50 words of English prose= or 10 phone numbers, although you can settle for even less than that at th= e expense of some security.

There are three ways to create a brain= wallet. The first, and most obvious, is to create an address/private key= pair with bitaddress.org, blockchain.info or vanitygen and memorize it as= is. However, this option is the most difficult to memorize. The second is= to generate an address/private key pair and use a tool like Grondilu=E2=80= =99s Bitcoin Bash Tools or the Electrum wallet to generate a list of words= from the private key which you can more easily memorize, and then use the= tool to convert back when you need to. The third is to do the reverse =E2= =80=93 create the private key from the passphrase, which you can choose you= rself. Since almost any 256-bit value can be used as a private key with Bit= coin=E2=80=99s ECDSA cryptography, you can take the SHA256 hash of any pass= word or phrase (the tools for this are very widely available both online an= d offline) and then import the result into the blockchain.info wallet in of= fline mode to get the address for that key. The process for sending bitcoin= s is exactly the same as that for offline/paper wallets: use a tool to crea= te the transaction offline, and then use an online computer to publish it.<= br>

BASIC TERMINOLOGY / GLOSSARY:
--------------------------------------= -------------

TOR - Tor (short for The Onion Router) is a system int= ended to enable online anonymity. Tor client software routes Internet traff= ic through a worldwide volunteer network of servers in order to conceal a= user=E2=80=99s location or usage from someone conducting network surveilla= nce or traffic analysis. =E2=80=93 (Wikipedia)

BITCOIN WALLET - A Bi= tcoin client is a piece of software that handles receiving and sending bitc= oins. The most popular is the standard Bitcoin client downloadable from bit= coin.org, although there are many other options with different features.You can either download your bitcoin client (preferred) or used a web-base= d bitcoin wallet. (blockchain, mtgox, etc)

The term wallet can have= two meanings: it can either be a synonym for a Bitcoin client (although th= e terms are in practice used slightly differently, =E2=80=9Cclient=E2=80=9D= referring more to fully fledged desktop clients and =E2=80=9Cwallet=E2=80= =9D more to lightweight browser-based and online managed services) or it ca= n refer to a file which stores bitcoin addresses and the private keys neede= d to use them.

BITCOIN ADDDRESS - A Bitcoin address is a string like= =E2=80=9C13ignD31FysQbaBBVJUzffcQoFxxEuEcbE=E2=80=9D that you need to know= from someone to send bitcoins to them. The process of creating a bitcoin= address and the private key going along with it can be done by bitcoin cli= ents.

PRIVATE KEY - A private key in the context of Bitcoin is a key= connected to an address (technically, the address is the hash of the publi= c key corresponding to the private key) that is stored behind the scenes an= d allows you to send bitcoins that have been previously sent to that addres= s. Note that because of the way the encryption algorithm that Bitcoin uses= (ECDSA) works it is possible to generate the public key and the address fr= om just the private key.

FE - Finalize Early. When you're asked to= finalize (pay him before he ships) early by the vendor.

PGP - stand= s for Pretty Good Privacy. PGP is useful for two things: 1. Privacy and Sec= urity, and 2. Authenticity.
By privacy, I mean that you can prevent peop= le from seeing things. For example, you can encrypt an email to someone, or= encrypt a file with a list of passwords.
By Authenticity, I mean that= you can ensure a message was sent/written by the person you think it was,= and that it wasn't modified by a third party. Of course, these two can be= combined.

PGP is basically used for 4 things. (stolen from http://a= xion.physics.ubc.ca/pgp-begin.html#intro)

a) Encrypting a message or= file so that only the recipient can decrypt and read it. The sender, by di= gitally signing with PGP, can also guarantee to the recipient, that the mes= sage or file must have come from the sender and not an impostor. (So you ca= n send a coded, signed e-mail to your lover and ONLY your lover will be abl= e to decode it and your lover will KNOW that the e-mail came from you.)
=
b) Clear signing a plain text message guarantees that it can only have= come from the sender and not an impostor. In a plain text message, the tex= t is readable by anyone (i.e. is 'plain') but a PGP digital signature is at= tached. So, Alice posts some comments about black holes to one of the sci.a= stro news groups. She mustn't encrypt the comments because she WANTS people= to read them. But Alice wants anyone with PGP to know that it was her who= posted the comments - so Alice digitally signs the posting with PGP. nb Al= ice and all other PGP users can subsequently prove that she posted the comm= ents. Be careful about what you put in signed postings as it is difficult= to deny, later, that the contents of a message were sent by you!

c)= Encrypting computer files so that they can't be decrypted by anyone other= than the person who encrypted them. (So, you CAN stop your family reading= your poetry.)

d) Really deleting files (i.e. overwriting the conten= t so that it can't be recovered and read by anyone else) rather than just= removing the file name from a directory/folder. (So, you can obliterate of= fensive stuff from your PC.)=C2=A0 (stolen from some ehow type site)
GPG - Gnu Privacy Guard and Pretty Good Privacy -- also referred to as GPG= and PGP, respectively -- are data encryption and decryption solutions used= for transferring and storing information securely. GPG and PGP are nearly= identical, with the major difference between them being how they are licen= sed to the public.

if you're really interested to learn the differen= ce between GPG and PGP : http://www.ehow.com/info_12225332_difference-betwe= en-gpg-pgp.html#ixzz26DXDNpJy

E-Wallet - a temporary bitcoin wallet= . Examples are Instawallet, Easywallet, etc

ESCROW - Simply defined,= an escrow is a deposit of funds, a deed or other instrument by one party= for the delivery to another party upon completion of a particular conditio= n or event.
On SR Escrow's system, SR temporarily holds your money.. wh= ich means the seller you are buying from does not receive your bitcoins UNT= IL you receive your order. Once you receive your order you click FINALIZE,= then SR releases your bitcoins to the vendor. The escrow exists so both pa= rties feel relatively safe and comfortable doing business with each other,= preventing risk and satisfying both sides. The vendor is putting his profi= t on hold until you finalize the transaction, so the buyer is responsible= to make sure his/her vendor gets the bitcoins. And the vendor is responsib= le to make sure his/her buyer gets the product(s).

LAUNDER - to "was= h" your coins meaning to remove or obscure all trace or record of where the= COINS originally came from. (Example: Jim buys his bitcoins from Mt Gox bu= t he doesn't want anyone to know that, so he uses services to ERASE the foo= tprints and record that they came from MT Gox.)
Tumbling refers to "tumb= ling your coins in a washing machine" to clean them.

LIBERTE - Liber= t=C3=A9 Linux is a secure, reliable, lightweight and easy to use Gentoo-bas= ed LiveUSB/SD/CD Linux distribution with the primary purpose of enabling an= yone to communicate safely and covertly in hostile environments. Whether yo= u are a privacy advocate, a dissident, or a sleeper agent, you are equally= likely to find Libert=C3=A9 Linux useful as a mission-critical communicati= on aid. (stolen from dee.su/liberte)

LE - Law Enforcement, AKA pigle= ts, AKA the main enemy attempting to cripple SR.
If you're one and read= ing this, get assraped by 6 black cocks and cummed on several times by seve= ral sources preferably that have AIDS - SR will always exist, no matter how= many stings you attempt, or how much "intel" you think you might have. Wel= come to the future. Accept it and stop wasting time trying to FUCK WITH US.=
Just like Torrents will always exist .. DRUGS ONLINE will always exist,= so why bother even trying?

MORE GENERAL= INFORMATION AND GATHERED RESEARCH:

If you are worried enough about= your security to be using PGP, than you should most definitely not being= using=C2=A0 windows to access the silk road or any other part of the darkn= et.
for one example of one of the many dangers of using windows, there= is a thread around here about how windows 7 (and possibly other versions)= keeps a constant 10mb/s encrypted connection with the NSA. and although it= is not know what that connection is sending, a lot of signs point to compl= ete surveillance of everything yhat you do on the machine. That alone shoul= d be enough to make any SR user fear windows. And some people (myself inclu= ded) believe that Mac systems have similar issues

You should really= be using a linux LiveUSB to access SR. Not only is it a million times safe= r, but the PGP programs in the ones designed for anonymity are much easier= to use than gpg4win, and it pretty much already set up for you.

fol= low the instructions here to make a Tails Linux LiveUSB (one of the more fa= vored LiveUSBs among SR users):

=C2=A0
There seem to be two school of thoughts on your comput= er security OS wise:
=C2=A0
Using a linux CD/usb to boot up into a = =E2=80=9Clive=E2=80=9D environment. Full virtualization and isolation of al= l network facing applications found here:

TIPS FROM OTHER FORUM POSTERS:

ope= ntoe's advice:
The ONLY way I access SR or anything to do with it is usi= ng MS VirtualPC. The entire OS is encapsulated in one big VM file. I think= it is better then a USB card since I can lose that or someone can take it.= If I have to ditch my VM quickly I can just delete the entire VM itself.= Then I can use SDELETE multiple times on my drive. Then I'm safe. Now, if= the ever chance I got busted on and charged through my door i may have a= hard time doing all that. This is why I created a batch file which I just= double click on that will erase the VM and run sdelete automatically. Ther= e are also hard drive killer programs out there that I may check out too.= Also, when you communicate private/sensitive information ALWAYS use PGP.= If you don't know how to use it, then LEARN IT. Never use a vendor that do= esn't at least provide it.

--

Delta11's advice:
Secure Tor= Setup:
-Install TAILS on a usb stick or a cd if you're paranoid that yo= u might leave data on the usb (cd is read-only)
-Get a second usb/memory= card and encrypt it using truecrypt but make sure to encrypt with a hidden= partition.
-Select an easy/crackable password for the outer volume and= then make the password for the hidden partition very strong/secure.
-On= your outer volume put embarrassing things (Pictures of your ex, naked pics= of dudes, etc) that way if you're ever forced to decrypt your drive you'll= just facepalm and say "Okay you found my secret you asshole."
-On your= hidden partition keep all of your sensitive info and make sure to even PGP= text files just in case.
-Try to connect to a neighbor's wifi, chances= are there are some unsecured ones. If there aren't any unsecured networks= then check to see if any of them are locked with WEP, they are easy to cra= ck but you'll have to figure that out on your own.

---

pine'= s advice:
Go onto Tor and download bitcoin wallet software ->=C2=A0= Printscreen http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Tor instructions -> Turn off inte= rweb -> Install and torify your bitcoin wallet software -> Turn on in= terweb and download the block chain to torified bitcoin wallet, now you are= ready to proceed -> On clearnet, access your exchange account with the= bitcoins -> Make an instawallet/online bitcoin wallet provider account= through clearnet -> transfer bitcoins from exchange to instawallet ->= ; transfer from instawallet to your torified bitcoin wallet -> Open new= instawallet with Tor -> transfer from torified bitcoin wallet to instaw= allet on Tor -> Optionally transfer to a bitcoin mixing service -> wa= it a couple of hours/days -> transfer from mixing service or online wall= et to SR.

--
pkinkman's advice:
If you have access to cash now= and went to make a purchase today here's the easiest way:

1. Buy Mo= neypak. (Up to $300=C2=A0 at 7-11 or $1100 at Wallmart)
2. Purchase BTC= from SR vendor with MoneyPak, ideally Coinbox as his fee is only 1-2%. "BT= C Buddy" is also reliable exchanger although his 10% is more than I would= pay. Not sure what Vlad charges but you should PM any of these vendors to= work out a rate.
3. Buy drugs of choice with funds from your freshly to= pped up SR btc account.
4. Wait in agony while anticipating the arrival= of your freshly purchased drugs.
5. Do drugs.

MORE ADVICE:1. Don't have your clearnet browser and Tor browser open at the same time= .
2. Never use a Bitcoin address more than once.
3. Search forum for= bitcoin mixing services and online bitcoin wallet providers.
4. If you= think you see flaws, you point them out. The only stupid question is one= never asked.
5. Although the above procedures might make you more paran= oid, you should really sleep a whole lot sounder since every service you've= used from the exchange to the Silk Road itself could be compromised and it= wouldn't matter a whole lot.
6. Clearnet means being on the normal web= and you're not using Tor software. Darknet is the opposite.
7. To torif= y something means that its internet traffic is being routed though the Tor= network.
8. Don't access exchange websites with Tor, period. Unless you= 're doing what I described above
9. Don't access any website with Tor e.= g. your instawallet, and then access the same web address/URL using Tor. No= w instawallet knows who you are if you do.
10. Under no circumstances,= none, forward bitcoins from A to B and then put the bitcoins back into a= wallet you used earlier. This is circumstantial evidence that all bitcoin= activity in that loop belongs to a single entity.
11. The larger the qu= antities being transacted, the more you want to be thinking about ferrying= varying amounts of bitcoin over time with different Tor identities. I beli= eve there is bitcoin software that can do this for you, future scheduled de= posits that is, and your Tor software periodically changes identity anyway.=

--
MISC ALTERNATIVE ADVICE #1:

The best practice is= to treat Bitcoin like a bank with multiple accounts. You find a secure mac= hine, whether it's a Linux LiveCD or whatever and create a new wallet. Writ= e down the address. Encrypt the wallet (using Truecrypt or whatever else)= and put it on a USB stick. Hell, make two USB sticks.

Throw it in= your safe. Keep another elsewhere. Treat it like a huge pile of cash you= can keep backups of, but no one can really steal.

Keep a secondary= wallet on your PC. Think of it as your checking account. Once you have an= uncomfortable amount of funds, or before that point, transfer some of it= off to your primary wallet (your savings account).

What will be use= ful after this is to get a Bitcoin Linux LiveCD specifically for accessing= your primary wallet. If you need to access your 25,000BTC stash, you boot= from that LiveCD, pop in your USB stick, and do your business.

That= 's the only way you're ever going to have real security with your Bitcoin= funds

--
MISC ALTERNATIVE ADVICE #2:

- Acquire a cheap ne= tbook/pc/toaster, the 'cleaner' the better, i.e. new in box is best. NEVER= CONNECT THIS MACHINE TO THE NET
- Acquire some flash/external hds/print= er/cd burner or other long term storage/backup media usable from your Bitty= Bank.
- Use the media you got to put a verified copy of the bitcoin cli= ent on your Bitty Bank, generate a wallet. Back up this wallet using the me= dia mentioned.
- Destroy your bitty bank, or at least give it a good str= ong wipe.

YOU NOW HAVE A SECURE AIR-GAPPED ONE-WAY BITCOIN BANK
<= br>And perhaps you also see why I term this the 'Bitty Bank'. You can put= funds in but not take them out until your ready to 'break' it.

To= 'break' your Bitty Bank, you have to connect it to the net and send whatev= er money you want to withdrawal. Unfortunately at this point your Bitty Ban= k is potentially compromised. The trick, is that you can have a new secure= Bitty Bank set up to receive the excess funds at the same make your desire= d withdrawal from busted bank.

Why this should work From my understa= nding, it is not necessary for the Bitcoin recipient to come online within= any given time-frame.

I've also observed that it is possible to cre= ate new wallets, without any net connection.

Since Bitcoin is really= just a distributed ledger, this makes a lot of sense, your not actually se= nding anything to the recipient, your just logging that you want that perso= n to have the concept of X.XX Bitcoin.

This being the case, it is ne= ver necessary to have your wallet on a net-connected machine until you inte= nd to send bitcoins.

---
MISC ALTERNATIVE ADVICE #3:

Pick= a machine to dedicate to bitcoin. I will refer to this as "bitbank". It do= esn't need much in terms of hardware specs, just needs to run. The paranoid= may wish to check for hardware keyloggers and such, but it shouldn't reall= y matter, as you will be keeping it physically secure.

Whip the HD= and install a secure OS. Should be something secure and reliable. Debian= would be a good choice. Use full disk encryption. This will serve more as= a barrier against tampering with the software (eg installing software keyl= oggers) than protecting the data.

Do not install any additional soft= ware on the computer, or even brows the web on it. Yes, it should be okay= as long as you use reputable software, etc. But we are being paranoid here= . There could be security flaws anywhere. Only use it for bitcoin

Di= sable any "dangerous" software running on the machine. This is pretty much= just ssh or other remote login software. I'm pretty sure this isn't an iss= ue in Debian, but I haven't done a desktop install for a while.

Inst= all bitcoin. Use official repos when possible, since this should be a signe= d package.

** Use your new bitbank.** Just send coins to it's addres= s when you want, start it up only when you want to remove coins. Monitor th= e distro's site for any crucial security updates and do them, but other tha= n that you are good.

Keep it physically secure. No software protects= you against an attacker planting a hardware keylogger in your machine. A= safe or bank vault would be a good idea.

--

MISC TIPS:
If you had sensitive data on HDD and moved it to encrypted volume, ma= ke sure to erase all the data with
http://www.killdisk.com/ or Eraser ht= tp://eraser.heidi.ie/=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0(visit through TOR)
downloading= CCleaner and setting the Secure File deletion to delete at 7 (medium) over= write will work too.
Both are free.

Has the author used SR before? This isnt how this works. No= rmally the vendor will ship first, and once the product is marked as shippe= d the transaction will go into the auto-finalization stage where unless the= buyer disputes the transaction it will auto finalize in 17 days unless the= buyer finalizes manually first. There is no option simply to NOT pay, if= you feel cheated by the vendor you can go into resolution. Perhaps the buy= ers can scam the vendors by filing bogus disputes, but this shows poorly on= buyer stats and will most likely get said buyer blacklisted.

I read elsewhere there is no issue having both browsers open on the= same computer, fuck I do it all the time. How hard is it to see "TorBrowse= r" and "Firefox" and put what you need where it goes.

Receiving packages

=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Use a dif= ferent address, such as a friend's house or P.O. box, that is unrelated to= the one where your item will be kept. Once the item arrives, transport it= discreetly to its final destination. Avoid abandoned buildings or any plac= e where it would be suspicious to have mail delivered.
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Do= not sign for your package. If you are expecting a package from us, do not= answer the door for the postman, let him leave it there and then transport= it as described above.
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Do not use your real name. This ta= ctic doesn't work in some places because deliveries won't be made to names= not registered with the address. If you think this is a problem, send your= self a test letter with the fake name and see if it arrives.

If you= follow these guidelines, your chances of being detected are minimal. In th= e event that you are detected, deny requesting the package. Anyone can send= anyone else anything in the mail.

These are all things I've= been told multiple times NOT to do. I am far from a lawyer and I still hav= e not made an order on here yet because I am looking for the perfect vendor= and product, however.

providing that the friend you= choose to receive it has nothing illegal at their house in the unlikely in= stance of the house being raided.

Just wanted to touch on thi= s real quick for people considering it. You've heard the stories and don't= think that a friend won't roll on you if they ARE raided. Even if they don= 't have anything else if it will save their own ass they most likely will= talk to get out of "perceived" trouble.

That said I appreciate your= other input and believe me I have been scouring vendors reading reviews li= ke crazy and trying to find out where to start. Is this what they mean when= they say like a kid in a candy store?
