Title: Re: I don't understand how to buy BTC.. Post by: hooooouse on September 12, 2012, 02:35:28 AM I am in the US.
I say Dwolla is a scam cause it wants every single piece of information about you along with a 30day old transaction from the bank. That is a lil sketchy and i don't want to wait 30 days to recieve my BTC. Title: Re: I don't understand how to buy BTC.. Post by: ElectricMucus on September 12, 2012, 02:39:30 AM Never had problems with BIC/IBAN bank transfers, you don't even have to verify your mtgox account if you use their Japanese one. You still have to pay a fixed fee for the transfer, still for any reasonable amount it's cheaper than bitinstant.
Title: Re: I don't understand how to buy BTC.. Post by: DeathAndTaxes on September 12, 2012, 02:40:05 AM Well 30 days is an anti-fraud measure. It may be annoying but calling it a scam isn't exactly accurate.
BitInstant is one option for US customers to get coins the same day from lots of retail locations. Tangible Cryptography (see sig) provides the lowest cost coins bulk only in bulk sales ($500 min).

So true... But once you have them, you have them for good (given proper security measures). Believe me, it's worth the hassle. Title: Re: I don't understand how to buy BTC..

Post by: maqifrnswa on September 12, 2012, 05:58:46 PM You can directly get bitcoins from paypal using:
http://bitcoin-otc.com/ but it's person-to-person trading, you have to find a high rated trustworthy seller, and they'll probably want to verify your identity somehow too. |
