Title: instant transactions on coinbase
Post by: Shithead on July 12, 2013, 09:15 pm
Identity verification is the only thing stopping me from getting instant btc from coinbase. No problems so far with this company and I'm willing to verify. Has anyone else done this yet?
Thoughts? Concerns?

I'm not familiar with coinbase but it is starting to look like you will NOT find a truly anonymous way to obtain bitcoins, except localbitcoins.com.

Everyone else is getting on this goddamn onerous ID-asking bandwagon. So if that's the case, we must sharpen our coin washing methodology to the max in order to at least provide plausible deniability.

Alrighty then, btc laundry is no problem for me. Not having transportation is why i dont use localbitcoins. I have an account there for later use when i am mobile again. Thankyou for voicing your opinion on the matter.

OP

In order to use coinbase you need to link a bank account anyway, your identity is pretty much confirmed at that point. Might as well give them the last bit so you don't need to wait the four days for a transfer. Just remeber to wash your coins before you send them to SR. Sending them to an exchange is a good method.

I will use an exchange for small amounts but prolly use fog for bigger ones.
