What can you buy with bitcoins?
I strongly, strongly doubt this. I've never done it personally, but that would go against much of what the purpose of bitcoins stands for. There's got to be other ways to purchase, man. I used to know a Silk Road vendor, and the way him and his customers did business was not like that. Anonymity at all costs. Bank username and password screams "imma take your shit".
And what newsgroup site makes you pay for membership now? Been a couple years, but that doesn't make much sense.

There's really only ONE newsgroup site out there left and that's nzbsrus. Every other one has shut down, except for the unreliable search engine ones. You can browse nzbsrus, but you can't download anything unless you have a VIP account, in which the only way you can attain one is to buy the subscription at 1 btc for 12 months.

Everything that you don't want anyone to know you're buying. I've seen ads for sex slaves, assassins, illegal porn, and even assassins. Most of these are bunk ads, but I'm willing to bet there are some that are real. It's the black market. If there's a demand, there will be a supply.
I bought 100 bitcoins around a year ago for $4 each, their price now is something like $35 each . Ive never had to give out my bank details or anything though.. i bought them via paypal and then got the coins sent to my bitcoin wallet by giving the site i bought them off my wallet address..
Also, if you're interested in mining bitcoins, id suggest investing in one of these:-

Basically, you connect the ASIS machines to your desktop, i believe they have their own basic OS on them, properly similar to linux (im unsure of these details, so take them at face value). Once its hooked up, you need to set it up and tell it which blocks to mine or join a mining pool. When you have BitCoins, you have a Bitcoin Wallet, you can make unlimited addresses in the wallet to receive BitCoin as payment for whatever services you want to buy. So you'll set up a separate address where all your accumulated BitCoins from the ASIS will be stored.
The only downside i can see at the moment with these machines are the fact that they hardly have any built at the moment, so it will take a while for them to dispatch any, and know what i think of it, your electricity bills will suffer from these aswell, especially if you leave them running 24/7 .

So it's like Superman 3?
Sounds like you need a lot of technical know how and potentially dangerous.
Still have no clue where the bitcoins are and how you obtain them.
wow, i never even heard of this silkroad thing before. I just looked into it. hmm...How safe is it, can I seriously have "medicine" sent to my home address and not worry about the popo?
