Title: As of January 2014, what's the best way to purchase large amounts of Bitcoin?
Post by: bobbobobbo on January 08, 2014, 12:20:51 AM
I'm definitely interested in Coinbase, yet they have a full 30 day wait period before large purchases.

Any popular others that accept wires or bank account purchases? I'm in the US.

(mt.gox no thanks, and btc-e doesn't accept US wires)

I'd always go for cash in person - wouldn't trust any exchange with large amounts of cash. :)

For large amounts what type of individual person would do such a deal with such large numbers?

What type of individual? I would have to say someone who had a lot of BTC that they wanted to sell  ;)

Bitstamp, CampBX, Vault of Satoshi, QuadrigaCX, Bitfinex are companies which have been able to process my US wires very quickly and efficiently with minimum hassle.

A friend of mine, Margaux, is the best broker for large transactions I know of.  (disclosure: she is a good friend but I have no business interest in her company)
