Title: Someone willing to go step by step on how to use SR?
Post by: jedilight on June 14, 2013, 01:35 am
I mean it's a bunch of info right?

So what I mean can someone break it down. How PGP needs to be used-what to download ( I use a P.C.), purchasing coins ( I want to remain anonymous and would prefer not using bank account info),contacting seller and making purchase? I know there is more to it but the more I read on here the more I need to read!! Haha

Thanks

I think everyone does things a little different.

I'll start.

PGP needs to be used to encrypt sensitive information (name, address) when placing orders.  I wont explain how to use PGP here because its been covered numerously on the forums.
To obtain bitcoins, I would use bitinstant. You can send a moneygram in exchange for bitcoins.  I'm pretty sure you can use fake info on bitinstant.  They have some form of ID check but I think its there to make sure you aren't a terrorist or some shit.  Pay a moneygram at walmart if you have one in your area.  They do not ID.  From there, the bitcoins will deposit where ever it is you selected them to from the bitinstant website.  You can have them sent to an email (use tormail for this,) or directly to an address.  You can create a bitcoin address at a site called bitcoin fog.  You deposit coins there and, for a small fee, they randomize your coins with their entire bitcoin flow (making your BTC untraceable).  From there you can deposit them into your SR btc address where you can spend them as you wish. 

You can run TOR from a flash drive.  Same with a PGP program.  (search pgp4usb)  There is potential security benefits in doing this.

Wow thanks for the info
So from Bitinstant website they have a few options to deliver coins. 1 is to deliver to bitcoin wallet the other is bitcoin email. If I use bitcoin email would that be to the email address I set up via tormail  and if so what then? I see on sr website under account that I have a deposit address. Will bitinstant send instructions in the email to input my deposit address from SR and from there it will be sent to my SR account?

Now if I want to go the route 2 of sending directly to a bitcoin wallet address from bitinstant is that were I need to set up an address from bitfog? If so how does the deposit number I get from SR come into play? Is this the same bitcoin wallet address or this something different and I still need to set up an address through bitfog?

Hope this wasn't confusing but your help would be appreciated
Thanks
