Title: how to safely use mtgox
Post by: visionenergy on April 01, 2013, 07:18 am
I tried asking earlier but all i got was a bunch of jibberish on other ways to buy bitcoins.  Can someone who uses mtgox please let me know how to safely use them with a verified account and not have to worry about bitcoins being tracked.    Thanks

The coins are washed before they get your account here. Just buy them and ship to your address, they will go somewhere else then to your wallet here.

oh. wow.  that's pretty simple.  Why does it seem like most people use other sites to buy bitcoins then?  Mt.Gox almost always has the best prices on BTCs.  So why wouldn't you get them from the cheapest price possible.  I've seen prices on other sites going for more than 5 dollars per bitcoin compared to mtgox.

ya it does, but I figure just jump the coins around a bunch of times in random increments to random wallets should be good.

Agree.. Everytime I would rather pay a few extra $ to avoid the need to scan and email my ID

As it is not a crime to use Mt.Gox to buy Bitcoins, I am happy to supply my personal details ...

To ensure anonymity I move coins to several wallets before moving to SR. As additional protection I change my SR wallet address every transaction.

The greatest risk in using SR is poor vendor stealth ...
