Hello All
I am new to SR and was just wondering if it is fine (in terms of security) to have the bitcoin supplier deposit them directly into your SR account or should you have them stored in another bitcoin wallet in the middle? I use spendbitcoins.com..
Thanks for any help anybody can give - much appreciated :D

generally, yes it is fine. LE can't realistically track bitcoin transactions and certainly won't bother if you're only buying personal use-type amounts. I would at least change your SR receiving address regularly though. If you're transferring large amounts of cash for not-personal use and using a bank account with your name on it then it is riskier. But in that case you should be more worried about the taxman or the old-fashioned controlled delivery bust by postal inspectors than any sort of NSA-type numerical analysis of bitcoin transactions :) Even if they could or would do that, transferring it through an intermediary wouldn't be much of an obstacle
