Title: Re: Secured Bitcoins Post by: Parazyd on December 22, 2015, 12:47:46 PM The best and most secure way is using escrow. You can find many members (including me) doing it for free or a small fee.

The only way is to use third party as a middleman - or as we call it escrow. There is no other way to secure conduct trades where both parties are unknown.If you think you trading partner is Trustworthy enough you can always try to go first, but don't do that ever if you are dealing with newbie account.

It is a much faster and efficient way of trading as well as eliminating the risk of being scammed. Have you seen the amount of exchanges that have exit scammed over the past few years? This is faulty logic. otc and p2p trades work just fine when you use your head for something other than to weigh your body down. Escrow is cheap and/or free here. Over time I have built up some good contacts that I feel completely comfortable trading with. Title: Re: Secured Bitcoins Post by: Moneyburner on December 23, 2015, 10:04:49 PM Escrow or in person. When dealing with decentralized currency that's just one of the trade-offs that has to happen
