Title: Simple and easy way to buy bitcoin that worked for me
Post by: internalzen on April 16, 2013, 10:05 pm
Hope this helps someone, I know I'm a bit slow at times, but getting bitcoins reasonably easy was a bit of a pain. I had success with this method today, so I know it works well. In US, cant tell you if it works this way anywhere else.

Opened bitfloor and blockchain accounts. I did not have to provide any significant ID. I created a cash deposit to bitfloor via Bank Of America. Walked in, asked for an out of town deposit slip, filled it out, again no ID mentioned. Bam, done.

Checked bitfloor in about 15 minutes, USD was in. I then moved it to blockchain wallet, just to move it around a bit. Then sent it to its final destination.

Easy, clean and if you have a BofA, convenient. Hope this helps.

Bitfloor to buy the coins, blockchain for the wallet.

Use a bit coin client. This will give you an bitcoin address/wallet. Then fund it from bitfloor, then transfer from your wallet (through the blockchain) to SR.

As far as I know this is what is meant
