Quick question about bitcoins after the big Coinbase mess
Original post in this thread

I was one of those that got my Coinbase account closed due to Ceretropic purchases. I successfully moved my bitcoins off Coinbase and into Mycelium. It was awesome, it took just 30 seconds to get the coins.
1. I want to find out whether it's safe to buy nootropics with this Mycelium account or if I should push them out to another wallet for doing any purchases. Are the feds going to come down on Mycelium too if I buy some piracetam with it?
2. Is there a good Bitcoin exchange you all recommend? Gemini looks nice but they want photo ID, SSN, and a bunch of information. Is this pretty much what I have to do if I'm funding from a US bank, or are there smarter ways to do this?
Thanks!

Is it prudent to send coins purchased via CB to a clearnet wallet. Send BTC from clearnet wallet #1 to tumbler and then to clearnet wallet #2 AND THEN finally to ceretropic? Or is this overkill.

Overkill now. Ceretropic uses a non-US BTC vendor that gives a different wallet address for each invoice. We also just changed Nootropics Depot to a similar solution as well. So getting flagged is not a big issue anymore. I'd still use an intermediate wallet to be safe, though.
