Bitfinex, bitstamp, coinbase, btc-e, etc

In summary, the Intel Management Engine and its applications are a backdoor with total access to and control over the rest of the PC. The ME is a threat to freedom, security, and privacy, and the libreboot project strongly recommends avoiding it entirely. Since recent versions of it can’t be removed, this means avoiding all recent generations of Intel hardware. details https://libreboot.org/faq.html#intelme --- https://tehnoetic.com/laptops --- https://store.vikings.net/x200-ryf-certfied

Where are you from? For USA/Canada I think these will work to buy Bitcoin at least
www.circle.com
www.trucoin.com
www.quickbt.com

More options

I am from Canada, so i use different services to purchase and withdraw. Circle to get bitcoin (super fast), CAVirtex if i need to get them back into yucky FIAT.

...

I have bought in person at Starbucks (good neighborhoods), maybe four times.  My experiences have been excellent.

Buying in person for cash also has the virtue of being reasonably anonymous, fewer tracks...

I am not sure that the safest way to buy bitcoin is from an exchange. By buying on an exchange you are risking that the exchange does not suddenly get "hacked" and/or decline to release your funds due to AML/KYC concerns (or a number of other reasons).

I would argue that buying/selling from a trusted member of the community would be safer plus you would probably get your bitcoin quicker.

I would suggest go to localbitcoins.com and find a good seller for an online exchange or set up a face to face cash deal, nothings safer than that.

People actually thought buying Bitcoins from Mt Gox was the easiest safest way?   Shocked

That is an eye opener.  Either way if you're based in the US, then Coinbase, Circle, or LocalBitcoins should be good options to buy Bitcoins.

There are a lot of exchanges that you can count on when you want a safe and fast transaction. Among them were Bitfinex, Bitstamp, BTC-e and Coinbase. It is still up to your preferences which would you pick. i suggest you to use BTC-e because I'm personally using it and so far, no problems.

Right. Some times it is better to put a little bit of extra effort into your trades if it means that you have a smaller chance of loosing access to your money for potentially years
