Title: United States newbie trying to buy. What's my best bet?
Post by: jackmccauley on April 08, 2013, 01:41:51 PM
I'm trying to get a MtGox account, but I've wasted days waiting for verification.   Same with Dwolla. 

I'd ideally like to buy about $30k worth, but how do I get my money in the market?  Seriously, I'm stumped.

To buy 30k's worth, my first choice would be Bitcoins Direct, on this forum, (if they are accepting new buyers.)
If not, wire money to Bitfloor.com.

Check out bitfloor or coinbase. The latter has been having a few problems lately, though.

Coinbase is great and I am sure they have a great future ahead of them. But they are a horrible option to buy 30k worth of BTC right now.
