MtGox requires a fair bit of verification, but they've also been around pretty much the longest, and have already had to deal with all the security issues that other bitcoin sites are only beginning to discover. I trust them.
(That is to say, I trust them long enough to do the exchange, and then I transfer the bitcoins to my private offline wallet as soon as possible. And you should too.)
- blhack 14y agoDid you give them your license, though? That seems to trip every single "identity theft" alarm I have.
- rheide 14y agoSo you want to open a bank account but you don't want to identify yourself?
- jlgreco 14y agoAre they regulated as though they are a bank?
- epscylonb 14y agoYes, AML (anti money laundering) and KYC (know your customer).
- jlgreco 14y agoIs that all?
- borgopants 14y agoNot in the slightest. Look up what MtGox actually means.
