you can use a random phone number from the web if you don't want to give them your phone numbers
but if they are still so new, i don't want to trust them so easily
my question is, do they offer some interest on your deposit? there is profit ot be made there besides trading?
This fact did not appeal to my interest in the program, but the bitcoin card to do withdraws with did. But that has not been available since they launched. They said it would take a while but it has been over 3 months now but no news about when it will be available to withdraw to it yet. Keeping my eyes peeled when they do then I might join up to get the 0.5g of free gold.
basically the only good thing is that you can actually ask for a real gold if you want
but if this is the case i'm not interested either, bitcoin is gold 2.0 for me, no reason to buy gold anymore when you have this new beautiful technology
real gold has some advantages though. however, I don't feel save by keeping "my" gold in digital form with a 3rd centralized party like bitgold.
by the way, BitShares BitGold is decentralized and in your wallet!
