Title: Best deposit method Post by: BittyBatty on August 26, 2017, 03:51:29 PM Currently for a USC, as far i know, coinbase and kraken are only possible deposit gateways for fiat to crypto world.
While i have been using coinbase, they have become a pain. Their system blocks me from placing a buy order asking for ID verification, which i have done 1 month back. When i upload my drivers license and selfie, it just says failed. No details, no explanation, no followup on how to proceed from there. Drives me nuts. 0 customer satisfaction rating if it is in traditional market space. Customer service is absolutely terrifying but i don't see other options. Kraken is outright asking for SSN, give me a break. You are not regulated by any authority and your practices are questionable like any other crypto organization. Submitting DL itself is a stretch for me , forget about SSN. How do you guys convert fiat to crypto and how you are able to overcome these hurdles to quickly deposit when you want. BTW, i use Polo and Bittrex for buy/sell but only after you purchased your BTC/ETH/LTC from coinbase. Appreciate any reliable suggestions that you have tried. ~B Title: Re: Best deposit method Post by: Emoclaw on August 26, 2017, 04:08:17 PM Try using https://gemini.com/.
It is a much better way to buy Bitcoin with FIAT than Coinbase. Verification sometimes takes longer than usual, but it's overall the best Coinbase alternative.

I have no problem giving my id but most of these companies don't have any regulations and we never know where our data will end up. That is why i am looking for service who doesn't ask too much personal information.
Any outside US exchanges we can use? Title: Re: Best deposit method Post by: pinkflower on August 27, 2017, 02:32:29 PM What about localbitcoins.com? The exchange rates are not as good compared to Bitstamp but its a good and easy option to convert cash to BTC.
