February 23, 2019 Sovryn Tech Special 0001: "Bitcoin, Baby!"
The very first Sovryn Tech special! And it’s all about Bitcoins, baby! What are Bitcoins? Why are they interesting? What does Brian think about Bitcoins? Listen and learn!
Special Guest: None
How to anonymously (or, as anonymously as possible) get Bitcoins:
1. Use a VPN (www.privateinternetaccess.com is actually a VPN that accepts Bitcoins for payment).
2. Get on the internet through TOR (www.torproject.org/download/download).
3. Get a TOR-specific e-mail account (www.tormail.org).
4. Go to www.BitInstant.com and have BitInstant send the Bitcoins that you purchase to your TOR-specific e-mail address.
5. Now go to www.coinapult.com and send your Bitcoins from your TOR-specific e-mail address to any e-mail address where you want your Bitcoins to reside. That’s it!
APPENDIX:
—Do not use Dwolla for getting Bitcoins. BREAKING! Link: codinginmysleep.com/dwolla-begins-s…-+hnycombinator)
CORRECTIONS:
—In this episode, Brian Sovryn stated that TradeHill was based in Canada and was shut down by regulations from the Canadian government. As a correction, TradeHill was actually not based in Canada and was not shutdown by the Canadian government.
