I agree with trusting no one, not even computers. In fact, I have all my bitcoins in a paper wallet.

It is kind of funny that after reading this post (i like you already @dacoinminster) that going to bitbargain and reading their trust section, it's laying it on a bit thick.

Another good thing to do is to always operate on virtual machine or live cd this way you are sure that no data is left on the computer you used. This might not be so useful for your wallets but is a generally good idea for save/anonymous use of computer/internet.

Funny thing is, Bitcoins supposed to be anonymous but it so isnt anymore. MtGox wants your full name, you advise everybody to know their full name when in trade, so its pretty much just another currency isnt it.

If you don't like MtGox and live in a large city you should try localbitcoins.com. Plenty of people there willing to do cash-only transactions. |

Sell an Amazon gift card at a discount. And use escrow.

The BTC community is great, but can be sketchy as hell. Great post, would read again.
