Title: Good places or methods for acquiring bitcoins?
Post by: Surgurn on April 06, 2013, 11:58 pm
I've been looking around for the past week or so, but have found anything I 100% trust right now.
I've also heard of members trading them, but have not seen anything.

Any advice would be great.

I think one of the safest methods is to deposit cash at a bank of america using Bitfloor.

Using cash is a necessary precaution. Using Dwolla will make a direct link between SR activity and your bank account = bad.

Bitfloor? Have you used them before? Any personal stories of success or failure?

I believe so, but there's also this site that uses BoA deposits & has recently added an option that allows you to send them cash in the mail, for people who don't have easy access to any Bank of America locations. I've used them multiple times recently, so I can vouch that they're legit:

Bitinstant. It's been by far the most popular & frequently used method of acquiring Bitcoins around here in recent months, but I've seen a slightly unnerving number of threads & posts lately with various criticisms of the service & accusations of undesirable changes, so because of that I'd definitely recommend looking into it quite a bit further before proceeding with purchasing BTCs that way.
