Title: How often should one change there deposit address for SR
Post by: cay on February 15, 2013, 09:00 pm
I know SR shuffles money around, but I thought I'd ask if anyone has a policy on this to follow. I was thinking about every 3 or so transactions.

You should use a new Bitcoin address for each and every transaction. Using an address more than once will give LE an opportunity to link several transactions to the one buyer should they ever come to the attention of  LE. It's so simple to hit "get a new Bitcoin address" for each transaction and minimize any chance of multiple transactions ever being linked to you. :)

You are definitely right and using something that has anonymous service both in and out to the wallet, yes it costs +3% each way, with new accounts each time will go even further to help you.
