I only want to buy a few 10's so market liquidity is not that important.

Has anyone done the analysis?

Options I seem to have are:

1) Transfer to MtGox in GBP. They convert into USD and then buy their.
2) Use Britcoin. Here I think I will incur lower fees, but not such a tight spread?

Any other options that are more efficient?


Thanks

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

I use mtgox UK account and they place dollars in my mtgox account within a couple of days. Buy the bitcoins, sell them for profit on britcoin and withdraw direct to my UK bank account.
The circle is quite tedious.

Personally I'd use britcoin as you'll get no fees so not have to account for them if you're speculating.

Just a friendly warning, if you do that enough times with enough money, your bank & the inland revenue are going to start asking some questions about what it is that you're doing...
