so, not been Silk Road for a while. Tried recently, but think it was under attack.,
Anyway, reason I not been was a big problem with INTERSANGO bitcoin exchange - they basically stole my money and took months to sort and I lost lots of value.
Anyway - bitcoins - WTF with the price!
And what happened to instawallet? Anyone got an alternative?
Also, need to know somewhere good to get bitcoins (I am in UK) that isn't intersango - advice welcomed.
And I forgot a lot - is there a stick/link to an up to date guide?

What up K!
bitbargain.co.uk is your friend for UK bitcoins instantly.
blockchain.info for web wallets - make sure u add all the security settings!
any other Qs let me know!

thanks a lot :)

I just checked bitbargain.co.uk and it seems a lot more expensive that the big exchanges? Am I just being dumb?

it's only like £2 higher per coin at worst whenever i have bought, and the speed at which you get them means you don't have to worry about any drops in value during the time taken to receive coin. the big exchanges are difficult to use from UK banks and require SEPA fees etc which bump up prices. bitbargain is the only thing i use. if you wanna cross-reference prices, check out localbitcoins prices too.

OK thanks - got some coin from there, but seem I need some more to get what I want :)
