So i have a question about all of this supposed ' Bitcoin Cash Out' Methods i see for sale on SR, When the vendor normally steals 10% from you.
There are so many legitimate sites online where you can:
a) purchase bit coins.
b) sell bit coins.
Why does one simply just use one of these free services? And send your bitcoins to one of the companys, ( with your bank details ) And then wait 1-2 days, And you will have your money deposited into your account?
Why?

My guess would be ppl dont want to use their bank account tied to btc purchases..and maintaining anonymity has a price, fees,% what have you. As well as not wanting to wait a few days for all that transferring..yikes the thought of that paper trail is why I wouldnt use a free transfer out of a bank account at least..

There are sites like this. Check www.bitcoin.de/en

I see where your coming from, But arnt bitcoins anonymous?
Who cares if i transfer to my real bank account?
What would get the local police to check that exact transaction?
-Firstly they would need to no what company i used to swap the bitcoins/ to cash.
-Then they would need my wallet ID.
-Then they would somehow have to trace my wallet ID to my silkroad account?
Is that even possible? lol

Some people just aren't comfortable leaving a trace showing they bought bitcoins at all, even though they are legal. Bitcoins are tumbled once transferred to your silkroad wallet though, so it is still anonymous.
