Hello I am new to SR, very impressed with the products and the communities enthusiasm for such a service.
I have recently been looking for satisfactory BTC exchanges and came across a few however hellobitcoin/ crypto x changes were the most user friendly ones I could find.. Crypto wouldn't accept deposits without a verifiable ID(deposits are on hold now for some reason) and HelloBitcoin is more anonymous in the sense you dont have to sign up with a name but the deposit methods are ..I am primarily wondering as a buyer does it matter if I sign up to BTC exchanges with my name? and is a site like HelloBitCoin (run by 3 guys) trustworthy enough for me to send money for access to the exchanges or will they just take my money/ignore?
Thank you in advance :)

How would anybody know you are buying bitcoins to pay into SR?
You could be buying hosting, stocks and shares on GLBSE, a million other reasons. It's not unsafe to use real ID to *buy* bitcoins
You don't have to use exchanges either. Lot's of fixed-rate bitcoin exchangers who don't care about ID or proxies
