Hello,
say a person that has a seller account, wants to transfer bitcoins to his or her buyer account.
(for the sole purpose of trading on sr) but wants to be safe and anonymous.
Does one need to tumble between accounts?
If so what is a legitimate tumbler to use?
Thanks Peeps.

Tumbling SR to SR isn't necessary.

it isn't needed however a direct acc to acc transfer will show up on both of those accounts transactions with names. An attacker who compromised one account would know they are linked
If you are paranoid like I am, withdraw to an ewallet then pump it back in

Thats why you have 10 different sr buyer accounts and do random transfers to/from different ones each time. As long as you can have as many different buyers accounts, might as well take advantage. One day, I hope that they make it so one can't make unlimited number of buyer accounts. Its a huge advantage for a buyer to commit reverse fraud multiple times..
Honestly, there is 44k members here.. I bet there is actually less than 7k users that use on a regular basis, maybe less...I know that in the beginning, I had to make 3 or 4 accounts because I forgot either the username that I used or password. now, those 3 or 4 accounts are totally inactive. Also, I know when LE or another member is trying to remain anonymous, I bet I have at least 20 different pms from individuals that have never read the pm that I sent, so that tells me that those accounts are just one timers...
