I'm using OKPAY and will stay there as no problems until now. Even used XMLGold but prefer to exchange with PayPal, recently used RChange, http://rchange.net/?ref=356997

Then maybe you haven't heard:

Any financial transactions involving exchangers and stock exchanges trading bitcoin are now prohibited.


I looked into "PerfectMoney" but they are shutting down accounts belonging to US Citizens in the next 2 weeks (As of July 1st).

Right now, it looks like BTC-e is still able to send to PayPal but with a 6% fee.  Given that if I send from Gox using their only method left (Bank Transfer) it will cost me $15 from my bank and Y2000 (~20) from their side I'm better off sending using Paypal unless my transfer is more than $700.00 (where the Paypal fees would be $45 vs. ~$42 using Bank Transfer)

What a crock!!
