Title: $3000 in bitcoins through bitinstant? Safe?
Post by: aviator on July 19, 2012, 12:32 pm
Would it be safe to do this to one single bitcoin address? What would be the best way to get $3000 in btcoins?

BitInstant claims that they can transfer up to $10,000,000 ($10M), and are the only one of their kind to be able to do such.

It's in their FAQ's.

I personally use BitInstant every time for cash -> BTC transfers, and I have done anywhere from $100 to $800 with no issues.

So to answer your question, yes....they are safe, and they have the capabilities to do a $3000 purchase.

Why don't you guys use bitfloor?  So much less expensive.  Has cash deposits too.
