It appears to be very hard to purchase bitcoins these days. Have anyone here given up and instead gotten paid for doing something?

Are you referring to getting your money in and out of the exchanges?

The exchanges, bitinstant, etc. I haven't tried recently, but it seems to be much more difficult these days.

Probably the biggest worry for people after the FinCEN guidance came out.  If they start regulating getting money in and out (similar to InTrade offshore gambling) it can be very difficult.  End up having to rely on local craigslist posting or something to do exchanges vs. power/liquidity of online.  Haven't exchanged any for dollars or purchased with fiat but would have to imagine someone is putting new money in if the price keeps getting driven up like this.  Dwolla still work?

Still too many people coming in lately. The bubble is just starting so it's harder to get the money in.

I stopped using dwolla awhile ago when they changed their terms and conditions.

I think they have some deal with gox now but I haven't used them since. Bitfloor seems like the best way to purchase right now in the US, but I keep seeing complaints that they are running slower than usual as well.

I can't fucking buy Bitcoin/Litecoin with cash and its annoying me. I could buy them but not without a ridiculous fucking fee.

This goes for complaining about the "bubble" as well. I just can't think of any other way for the true value of bitcoin to be found other than repeatedly testing ceilings and floors.
To anyone thinking of complaining about the volatility, please fill in the blanks in this image and connect the two dots in whatever way you think would be "ideal for bitcoin". Then explain why you think such a scenario (e.g.,  straight line) is plausible.

Thanks, I saw that. But I'm not really sure the point of this post then.

I guess the title is wrong. If you read the OP I was wondering if anyone had actually done this successfully. I want to know how much "hoarding" is going on.
