^^No prob, buddy. Did Cavirtex sort out its banking difficulties, or did you use an ATM?

After being Goxed for 50 coins I prefer to avoid exchanges and keep all my coins offline.

The anonymity is just a bonus.

So where do you buy? ATMs?

Sometimes at ATMs and sometimes straight from individuals.

The 4% ATM fee may seem steep but there are no additional hidden costs like exchange and banking fees and the ability to react quickly to price dips actually makes it a bargain.

Is coinbase or circle available to you?

I don't use 'em. As I said, I prefer to keep my money offline. Once burned, twice shy.

I think he means to purchase and immediately send to an offline wallet

LOL...

It was hilarious....

The denial coming from DumboToronto when as it became patently obvious that Gox was going down the shitter.

It's still too early to decide on anything concrete right now. We might not have recovered fully, and can still drop down to <400. Remember that it's possible, so rash decisions can be risky to do at this current point.

At any point, really.

If Core development can be hijacked by a for profit corporation then I might as well be all in PayPal. Bloody humbug.

Surely, that is your choice.

I tend to value keeping down my fees, when possible, and to use either Circle or Coinbase, you do not need to keep your coins with them. 

Actually, Circle has recently implemented instant buys and sells of up to $3,000 per week through a debit card.

Circle doesn't have a fee, and their buy and sell price is the same.  Therefore, Circle fees are almost non-existent, if you use it strategically, and you can buy coins 24/7 without traveling and transfer the coins to yourself right away, if you want to store them privately.   

NOTE: sometimes, especially during high volatility, Circle's BTC rates are quite a bit above Stamp's price, so that could affect actual cost per BTC, but I would surmise that that BTC ATMs have the same issue.

At the 420$ price it's the best time to support 80 years old Bojia accused of growing hemp. She was found guilty and fined 1100$. That's her pension for the whole year. 3 min video about the case: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqmGkti9uUQ Bojia Bikova campaigns: BTC: Bithope - https://bithope.org/campaign/help-the-old-mother-bojia-campaign/ XMR: promena.org (OpenAlias Monero address)

Edit: The campaign is organised by the Promena Movement  & Liberty 420

It was not so obvious.... and it is not really funny to suggest so, after the fact.

I wonder how you'll feel when you use your first sidechain or make your first SegWit transaction

No matter how benevolent it thinks it is a corporation is still a sociopath. You don't think it's dangerous on principle to cede control of development like this?

The sociopaths are over there : bitco.in

Would you rather we cede development to Mike Hearn & the bankers?

380 seems likely as a bottom

It was obvious enough to me that I was trying to get my 50 BTC out of Gox in August 2013, almost half a year before they went down.

Of course I opened a ticket but they stopped answering my emails in September.

Thanks for quoting MatTheTwat. I never would have seen his bullshit post otherwise. He and the original NLC are the only people I ever put on ignore.
