Bitinstant use to be the go-to method, with their cash bank deposits it was possible to be anonymous and make up to $2,000-$3,000 in deposits aday, but now they have stripped away their anonymity and no longer offer such an option.

Is there any other anonymous services that don't have a bitcoin limit that have replaced bitinstant's changes?

Is there no businesses that offer anonymous services?

I'd prefer to stay away from individuals, regardless of how well trusted they are.

Yeah.... I saw that once before. Not sure how I feel about trusting random stranger with thousands of dollars.

They may have a lot of good ratings from tons of small transactions, but I'm sure such a rating would easily be worth sacrificing for thousands of dollars totaling far more than all prior orders combined.

I'm in the South East USA.

Even if I could find such a person, I would not be able to do so on an consistent basis, and I would not want to run the risk of being robbed at gun point by a person expecting me to show up with a bunch of money.

Is there really no businesses similar to the old bit-instant that can offer anonymity and secure transactions? Another reason a random person would not be viable is because I would need to be doing these transactions multiple times a month.

Hey,

Our limits never changed (2k) per day, and your transaction is still private.

The name and DOB requirement is just to check against an offline list we have to make sure you are not a terrorist or on the OFAC list

Bitinstant,

It doesn't feel very anonymous when I have to give my name and DoB to you guys, along with giving it to the transfer party(such as walmart and CVS). While I am not a terrorist, I would not call this the epitome of anonymity.

Just out of curiosity (it wouldn't stop me from using your service), are those requirements due to the PATRIOT act? We have to do that where I work as well for that reason.

Yankee, I have 2 questions...

Do you store the names of people who do transactions?

and

Do you know/have listed, the various identification policies of the cash-deposit services you offer? For instance, the limits that places like walmart or CVS will ID?

Saying that you don't trust someone because of their behavior is completely valid.
