thanks for replying everyone.  I have reached out to my federal financial governing board for further inquiry.

I can see my way of describing the service wasn't presented in the best way.

The question is more so,  if Party A(customer) pays Party B(service provider) a fee to locate a certain item (as an example we will says it's a digital asset with monetary value, something that can be converted into bitcoin somehow),  is it illegal for Party A(customer) to pay Party B(service provider) in fiat currency to obtain this digital asset that may have monetary value in which could somehow be converted to bitcoin.

Hopefully this clarifies a bit more, but as mentioned, I reached out to our government because this would be more so dependent on jurisdiction as mentioned above.

Say there is a service of acquiring goods (you pay the service provider a fee, and in return the service provider locates and acquires a 'legal' product for you. eg no drugs, counterfeit products, fraudulent products etc), bitcoin being one of these good - Would it be legal to provide you, the user, with the located bitcoin as a result of the service you paid for?

To clarify, the service charges you say, $100 USD, to locate a product, in this case its .002BTC that you're looking for.  You technically paid for the service and not an actual purchase of bitcoin, is the service provider then allowed to transfer you the located product?

Without mentioning any names, I'm currently signed up with 2 "cloud" mining sites with minor investments of about 10$ each.  I've managed to make back about half my investment (if you want to call it that) after about a week.  These sites have since been flagged as scams and I think the only reason I may be seeing a return is due to the size of the contributions I've made.  I'd be scared to invest more than that.

I've been using freebitco.in for about a month now and I think it's one of the best. 

I've tried many different faucets and this one seems to be the steadiest and most reliable.  I've withdrawn multiple times in different amounts ($5 - $50) with no issues.

I definitely recommend this site to newcomers such as myself!
