Least fees Julian I would like to comment on your request: 1. Your steps in 4) are incorrect. The steps are less than you picture. e-gold=> SR-Gold=> Card $ => are the only steps necessary. e-gold to SR-Gold has not cost. And there is a .50c charge to exchange to Card USD. 2. A request for Visa and Mastercard cards has certain fee obligation to Visa and Mastercard that can put your requested type card into a high expense arena. SO your 1 and 5 fight with each other. 3. You do not need to go anonymous to be free from legal regquirements to help out the nosy Feds. What you need is a card that is out of the USA jurisdiction, and a card that can have a name on it other than your own, such as "Jacks SpendingPot" and where the company issuing you the card contracts with you to only reveal the owner of the card to a government official if the owner is proven to be a criminal in a court of law. 4. The above is already possible with the Standard Reserve Card. But the new Standard Transactions is negotiating right now a Visa or Mastercard with similar naming and with simple in-exhange. Keep watching this space.
