Title: How much to buy with bitinstant?
Post by: Quest4 on August 02, 2012, 09:50 pm
If I am using bitinstant to get bitcoins should I watch how much money I deposit into Mt. Gox using a bank intermediary? For example, if I use bitinstant for say, a $300 deposit, will that look suspicious to a bank where I am making a deposit to trust cash? Will it look weird to Mt.Gox? Is Mt. Gox still safe to use? I thought I heard rumors a while back that they were being watched.

I would probably avoid depositing thousands into MT Gox with Bit Instant, especially in any kind of pattern (such as $1k every week for months straight). A few hundred bucks isn't a big deal.

Also, you might want to send your btc to some kind of BTC washing service instead of straight frm gox to SR.

Gox will give LEO info if asked.

If you send it to a tumbler, you should be good.

But again, you're sweating over a few hundred bucks. Nobody cares about that kind of amount.
