You can easily purchase Bitcoin from, [Clearnet] www.LocalBitcoins.com If you're in the USA then you can easily deposit the funds into the vendors bank account in person at your local branch, after they confirm they have received the funds then you'll receive the Bitcoin into your LocalBitcoins account. After that you'll need to make a Silk Road market account, once you have done that then go to the deposit page and you'll see 5 addresses. You can use any one of those 5 to deposit into your Silk Road account. Now you're ready to send the coins into your Silk Road account, I highly recommend you use a tumbler to break any links back to your LocalBitcoins account. Some examples of tumbler services are, [Clearnet] www.BitcoinFog.com (0.3 Minimum) [Clearnet] www.blockchain.info/wallet/send-shared Once you tumbled the coins into your account then you can go ahead and purchase from a vendor, but make sure you encrypt your address when giving the vendor your shipping details. If you're on a Windows or Linux system then I highly recommend PGP4USB, [Clearnet] www.gpg4usb.cpunk.de/download.html Keep in mind the market is closed until the 28th!
