seeing all these methods of cashing in and out of bitcoin in the US is making me freak out a little.... 
the market is surprisingly calm about all this FUD....

Adam, the only way to cash in and out significant money are bank wires. Do not freak out. Even if suddenly the US bans BTC... Who cares? Don't tell me this wasn't a very possible outcome from the very beginning.
And anyhow: I don't see these news as "US is going after Bitcoin". They just want to regulate and control it, at least for the moment. If they really were going after it, first thing was to ban bank wires to exchange - that's how the big money moves, Dwolla, OKpay and the likes are for small-timers.
