Title: Buying BTC for SR in Australia - MtGox no longer a safe option?
Post by: houseparty on June 18, 2013, 11:53 am
Hi all.
Really appreciate some help here.
I've setup a MtGox account which appears to only allow you to have an account once been verified (by sending in personal ID).
  I've since got verified and now found out these BTC's are now linked to me/MtGox working with the DEA etc....
thus logically last thing you want to do is transfer these to SR as they will be traceable.

Q's -
Is MtGox effectively obsolete to SR buyers now? Or can they somehow be used still?
What is the other best option for Australia?
Thanks in advance!

Bitinnovate for sure, other option online is to get through Virwox, which u can fund from a neteller or paypal account, but it's a real fuck around. By the time you register with both, fund neteller, buy second life linden dollars ( yep no shit, some people have a virtual life WTF?) through virwox and exchange them for btc and pay transaction fees on every single one of those transactions, then find u 'triggered virwox fraud algorythm' so u must wait 48 hours for btc to go through, u might as well have ordered through bitinnovate, gone to the bank and received ur coin in a couple of hours. ( unless of course u enjoy tedious assholes who want all ur info and the 'thrill' of trying to figure out wtf is a virtual life!
I'm not jaded!

I can vouch for bit innovate - From depositing at the bank to the funds appearing in my wallet only one hour had passed.
