Bitcoin Forum

I checked online and coinbase offers this but seems to be only $300 limit.  I also heard many people don't want to deal with coinbase.  I also heard if you buy ethereum with bitcoin, its much easier and there is no document verification.  Is that true or false?  I went online and saw a site called shapeshift.co which seems to allow you to exchange btc for ethereum and vice versa and a bunch of other coins.  Does anyone have advice on this?  So you basically just trade btc for ethereum but if you do that, how much percentage are you paying?  Example if you are trading $2000 worth of bitcoin, how much approximately in ETH are you getting?  Is it like 1 or 2 percent?


I have US bank accounts for verification. 


But if its easier to exchange for ETH, obviously i would prefer this instead.

What do you mean how to buy ethereum? are saying buying ethereum in exchange site platform?
Because in any exchange we are able and capable to buy ethereum,  only their differences was the percentage amount of ethereum.

What I did.

I search for local crypto currencies usersgroups(telegram, whatsapp, forum and localbitcoins), from there was really simple, I found a guy who sold 350 dolars in ethereum, we did a face to face transaction and the next time, I bought a larger amount to the same guy, I only did bank deposit.

I pay a little more than in a exchange, but I get the peace of mind that a bank in not the one getting that fee and is other person from the cryto currencie community.

try in poloniex.com    .. rate is around... Fee: 0.15/0.25%.. just give it a shot.. hope I  helped someone...

With all the exchange site spread accros the internet space, I can't believe one can still be bereft of ideas on where to get an alt as popular as ETH and even exchange site coming in fresh, one of the earliest coin they add is ETH and aside that, they have proven themselves to be potent all theybask for in return is just an amount as transaction fees. You can try c-cex.io or livecoin.net among others in the service discussion section of the forum.

Shapeshift is an old legit swap exchanges site also it's simple to do because no registration required.

Let's do some math.
1 ETH = 0.09 BTC
You have $2000 = 0.7089 BTC .

You will get = 0.7089 / 0.09
You will get = 7.87 ETH on that rate.

Kraken allows you to deposit flat money for trade in Kraken, so you might take it a shoot to trade in Kraken.

I have bought Ethereum before from the following site >

https://anycoindirect.eu/en/buy/ethers

I logged in to check the transaction costs as follows:

Overview
1 ethers                    € 242.35
Transaction costs    € 1.67
Subtotal                    € 244.02
Credit discount            € 0
Total                     € 244.02

I would not recommend anycoin direct. It is pretty expensive regarding to the famous exchanges like Bittrex, Kraken, Poloniex and so on

There are lots of exchanger site if you have altcoin or bitcoin then you can exchange your coin to ether but you have to select trusted and popular site like bittrex it's a very popular site. I saw your post its very good equation and I think you are an intelligent man so do all think carefully.

poloniex is the best choice.

Not everyone who thinks this is smart, maybe I think he already knows about the market that sells ETH, but why he asked a question about exchange sites for Eth, this is very confusing to me.

Heard about Btc-e they do have option for USD deposits.

Poloniex and Bittrex are the good choice to buy Ethereum quickly. With so many exchanges out there, make sure you trade on the right place and not in the shady exchanges one just stick to Poloniex and Bittrex for better support and rates.
