I dunno if it's that great an article... right in the beginning:

"But it’s not just media-sweetheart drugs like LSD and pot that people are buying. That shit’s easy to get unless you’re underage."

Couldn't be more wrong. Legit LSD is tricky for anyone to cop. And it's easy as hell to get weed when underage. Easier than booze.

no, but the sudden massive interest in an otherwise quiet black market did cause hyperinflation in the bitcoin market and almost certainly led to new law enforcement scrutiny of silk road, you fucking idiot.

90% of what gets sent through silk road is people like me buying 1/4 ounces of pot or some MDMA pills. A couple of the big accounts will get scrutiny, but it won't be trivial for LE agencies to track. Retail buyers wouldn't be worth it at all.

The much, much worse site will be The Armory. I really, really wish Silk Road hadn't set that up as a sister site.

use dwolla to fund mt. gox. that's the easiest way, but you have to be verified on both mt. gox and dwolla and have made a deposit in dwolla for 30 days before funding.

you can also make a cash deposit into the bitinstant account at your local bank and send them a picture of the receipt.

because it's a currency that few recognize and that doesn't rely on a trusted third-party to back up. it's kind of hard to enter something like that with IRL money--Paypal, credit card processors, etc. think it's scammy.

and basically the only way to "spend" it currently is on porn, drugs, and guns.

they don't want to deal with a bunch of chargebacks when people who feel they've been somehow duped no longer want their shitcoins

It's actually more about anti-money laundering than it is about chargebacks.

Cash > Prepaid Visa > Bitcoins > Checking account

CC companies want no part of that.

you can do that, though. lots of bitcoin distributors accept prepaid debit cards.

I didn't know that. I only did a little bit of scoping on it, and it seemed like the bigger distributors didn't deal in CCs.

I don't know if I'd expect that avenue to last too long. Gov't seemed to be effective in not letting online gambling operations be funded by CCs.
