Title: Fastest/Safest way to transfer 2k in BTC
Post by: 0h1n2h3o4j on February 23, 2012, 03:45 am
Hey,
  Sorry if this is a duplicate question, I couldn't find anything that answered my question. I am looking to get around 2k in bitcoins into instawallet. How would I go about buying them? What is the fastest safest way, I like the idea of making an anonymous bank deposit. Has anyone used a method they feel safe with? I know one of the major players just left the game so I am not sure what to do. Thanks -----

Multiple cash deposits spread out would be the best way of doing it without raising any eyebrows.

. . .or an insured cashiers check mailed to get-bitcoin maybe? i am not use if they could handle that volume, i wouldn't count on anonymously handing 2k in cash at once to a bank teller.

In the US (pot 9/11) anything over $9,999.99 will be looked at by the federal government. It is regulation. Anything less and you're good.

Many financial institutions have you fill out extra paperwork for anything over 3k or 5k even though the government doesn't require it.
