Thank you for the links Darth. I'll certainly be deep diving into your other guides later as well and following your CACHE protocol for existing KYC coin. I think that settles my concerns for method 1.

I don't plan on selling back to fiat, but regarding the post I am having difficulty dealing with the bank-imposed bottlenecks to convert to bitcoin for what you call my HODL stash regarding method 2. Do you have any suggestions on how to convert more quickly without having accounts frozen?
