I still can't figure out how to buy bit coins and I've been reserarching for days. I live in Canada. I was told I neeeded to set up an account with Canadian Virtual Exchange then take the account info to one of the 3 major banks here, where I would make a cash deposit to Ca VirEX.
So I took the info with the account number etc to Royal Bank of Canada and the teller and his supervisor didn't know what the hell I was talking about. They hadn't even heard of bit coin, even though on the CanVirtEx site they are listed as a client bank that deals with bitcoins.
So I'm still at a loss as to how to actually buy bitcoins. All the forum threads I've read are cloudy and confusing.
Can anyone clarify for me this process? I'm surprised it so convoluted.
