Buying all the btc you would like to sell willing to travel up to 500 miles from this zip code 17815. Please have a min if 10 coins per 100 miles (ie if you're 200 miles away have 20 btc to sell).

Fast way to get arrested, maybe you missed that FInCen made this illegal and people have been getting arrested in police stings all across the country all week long.

Not smart guys.

police stings for what? buying and selling something that isnt illegal? going to need to back up some of these frivolous claims

Police stings for operating an illegal money transmittal business, face to face transactions for over $300 usd. ( http://www.fincen.gov/news_room/nr/pdf/20140130.pdf ) <-- there is your "back up" read both documents. As of feb 4th, Florida just made national news for 2 major stings from two guys from local bitcoin who showed up to sell bitcoin in person.

Owning and mining bitcoin is not illegal, using it to purchase goods is not illegal, converting bitcoin in access of $300usd to fiat.... VERY ILLEGAL as of Feb. 4th.

give the link to both "stings" you speak of.

Here's a thread discussing it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=456860.0

I'm not gonna read through them again, but if I'm not mistaken, at least 2 of the 3 arrested were both told that the buyer of BTC was interested in illegal CC info, I think one even mentioned the Target heist.

i pretty much figured the arrests was more then just a trade of bitcoins for cash thanks for confirming it
