Title: getting paranoid
Post by: anonymous3210 on May 10, 2013, 02:24 am
i use bitinstant and deposit 500 at a time. i use the local walmart and an alias. then i transfer from coinapult to sr. i've put 5k in this way over the past 2 weeks. at what point does someone look into it and raise a red flag? should i be moving my btc around before i put it in sr? i feel like trouble is brewing...

Well, there's nothing to connect those transactions together. Unless on the off-off chance that they look for a string of $500 money transfers at the same Walmart totaling 5,000 dollars over a 2 week period, since someone just disclosed that they did this on the silk road forums. OMG please keep details like that under your hat!!

But other than that, you're just paranoid.

You should always wash your coins before you send them to the road.  Bitcoin Fog [http://fogcore5n3ov3tui.onion] is the easiest way to do this.  If you wash them well, any attempt to attach specific coins to you would be very inconclusive.

if its the same person working the counter, they can report suspicious activity.

Actually there is no such thing as "specific bitcoins". There are only transfers of specific amounts of bitcoin from one wallet id to another.
