Bitcoin Forum

I have the Bitcoin client and I have bitcoins in a wallet. All I want to do is sell these bitcoins for US dollars. It seems like an impossibility at this point. FastCash4Bitcoins looked promising except that I could never catch them when they had funds available and now their website has simply disappeared. I joined Coinbase and got my bank account verified but now I cannot find out how to transfer the bitcoins to my Coinbase account in order to sell them. This information is not on the site and they have not responded to my email message. Someone mentioned Dwolla but their help section has absolutely nothing about bitcoins.

So if someone here could inform me of someplace where I can sell my bitcoins for US dollars it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

What do you mean? FastCash4Bitcoins.com is there:

https://fastcash4bitcoins.com/

Also don't forget, as a last resort you can use https://localbitcoins.com/

That can't get shut down because it's not a company you're dealing with to trade bitcoins.

I've used coinbase and it takes awhile but has low fees and is based in the US so I trust it.

Will selling BTC for cash ever become difficult/impossible or will there always be someone willing to buy them, regardless of the price?

My opinion - it won't.

They're back now I see. Last night and earlier today the site could not be reached.

How do you transfer bitcoins from your wallet to your coinbase account in order to sell them?

how about using mtgox or btc-e

You'll have to look up an address associated with your Coinbase account. You can find this under Account Settings->Integrations, toward the bottom of the page.

Copy an existing address, or create a new one. In Bitcoin-Qt, go to the Send coins tab, and paste in the address you got from Coinbase. I like to send a smaller amount first just to test for any painful copy-and-paste errors, then send the rest when the smaller amount goes through.

you can try localbitcoins.com

how many BTC you want to sell

You dont have to sell bitcoins for us at just websites theres plenty of people on the forums who offer that service.

Echo that.

Read this thread:

Best method, and free.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=237164.0

As far as I know, the most used website is actually MtGox.com

Just trade it on btc-e

Yeha but I think you have to have over a hundred dollars to withdraw so better trade bigger amounts.

Trade with btc-e, mtgox, bitstamp.net. Or just trade in the marketplace just beware with scammer.

I recommend using an escrow or trading with high rep members here.

I WANNA BUY BITCOINS FOR $..my email is kaplin.paul@gmail.com

Don't hesitate to use an exchange like bitstamp.net or btc e (or even mt.gox).
You can also try https://localbitcoins.com/ or CoinBase if you are American.

Bitcoin-Brokers will arrange to have cash deposited into your bank account (USA only).

Paid above Bitstamp rates for your bitcoin.

Here is a 40,000 view review thread for Bitcoin-Brokers:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=237164.0

This is a very old thread.
I don't think that he will ever read this

you can sell to bitcoin exchanger, in mtgox or btc-e  8)

I would recommend bitstamp instead of mtgox

Try using localbitcoins. They can't scam you face to face..
unless they stab you :)

upvote/like/+1

I'd say use;
BTC-E, Bitstamp or Bitcoin Exchanger.
They're all fairly reliable and work fast.
Good luck.

If you are in america, use http://coinbase.com (http://coinbase.com)

You are risking your life.
I'd prefer to loose some money than my life.

:)

Unless you stab him first. ;)

That is your best option IMO

bitstamp,bitkonan, localbitcoins,cryptsy...

you have plenty of options :D

www.localbitcoins.com, www.safello.com

if you are in the US i recommend using coinbase also localbitcoins.com is a good place to sell to USD
remember when selling to a person on forum or like that use escrow and trade with someone who is trusted since BTC payment is irreversible and USD can be reversible

Stay away from exchanges until the Gemini exchange form the Winklevoss brothers is released my friend, too many scams lately, just way too many" fuck. I cant risk putting any money on centralized exchanges at this point. Im going go to use local bitcoins only until the Gemini exchange is released.

Coinbase is the most trusted and solid exchange for fiat coins that we have thus fair IMO.

Why not just spend it on what you were going to use the money for? Why loose some of it trading it back for fiat? Why did you even get BTC?

try brawler, you can use your bitcoin directly, to purchase what you want

I think the best way is through localbitcoins using Neteller/Skrill.
If you are lucky enough to have a two-way ATM around that's a nice way too.

only best option, would be localbitcoins if you wanted cash in hand that day.

but if you want better alternatives go with people on this thread who have been buying bitcoin from people w. reps that use escrow.

It is bad that people still have massively this problem.
Deposit bitcoins into coinbase is easy and you can sell if your account is verified. You have other exchanges like bitstamp btc-e btc china to exchange your btc for fiat but don't trust them with all your bitcoins at once.

OP hasn't logged in since May 2013 ;)

Edited content since I was caught in picolo (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=314831)'s bump trick.


If any of You need an actual list of exchanges, you should look here (http://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/).

Once verified, Coinbase and Circle are the easiest methods to sell back for fiat.

If you can find a trusted and reputable seller, then you can do face to face transactions with LocalBitcoins.

to sell your bitcoin for usd
try use btc-e for that.

Coinbase and localbitcoins

there a lot exchange you can trade your btc with usd
for me like bitstamp or coinbase

Should have watched some posts before, anyways, I have quoted that for you below... ;)

https://bitquick.co

I realize this thread is ancient, but useful hopefully for anyone else who reads!

almost everyone answered in BTC-e, I also always redeem bitcoin with dollars there. I believe there safe and a big site

i think some exchanger help you

The best way is to look here in maretplace for a reputated member for the deal

I can recommend http://www.havebitcoin.com/ (http://www.havebitcoin.com/)

They have very good prices, the site is simple to use (it's perfect for people like me who prefer easy solutions instead of overloaded with graphics, but hard to handle websites)
I used it few times, every time I had my dollars very quickly appeared on paypal.

First time I only sold 0,5 BTC to make sure everything is ok, now I selling more.

For the best margins, I`d say here on the currency exchange thread, but only go with trusted escrow like thedevdev or tomatoecage, etc.

But, if you think finding an escrow is a hassle, you can always visit localbitcoins.com which you can find an ad and do it in cash by person.

I personally feel thats the best way, but its based on preference. People mentioned coinbase, I`d avoid coinbase since their support lacks a lot and you`ll go through restriction measures that most people fail to mention.

Boys and girls this is a item that's started two years ago. I don't think the OP needs your answers.

this site is no more available how time changes , so if you are selling bitcoins over fiat always use a trusted and old 3rd party for it or else you might loss your money

i think cryptsy is best if u verified, else find some others.

I may also do at btc-e , its fast and no verification needed.

Their are lot of market buying your BTC.
You can try currency exchange (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0)
Or localbitcoin

I'm Interested ! I need to buy some bitcoins with paypal ; Pm Me

Anyone ever given BitQuick.co (https://www.bitquick.co/) a look?

They're similar to LocalBitcoins but make sure that you can't/don't get scammed.

Haha I can't believe you guys don't even check the date before responding, this thread dates back to 2013  :D Op is not even using this forum anymore, last time he was active was on May 30 2013  ::)
Anyways for new people coming to this thread, you can sell Bitcoin for USD PayPal, USD Skrill on Virwox. They have some hefty fees but they're fast and pretty safe.

Yep, can also recommend!

Much better than LocalBitcoins to sell bitcoin (https://www.bitquick.co)

I think you should have a try Localbitcoins. It's great for selling.

Our exchange service www.247exchange.com/sell (http://www.247exchange.com/sell) allows to sell bitcoins using credit and debit cards, bank wire, etc. The important thing is that we don't hold the customer's money, we send the transfer right after we receive BTC.

I'd recommend btc-e or localbitcoins. But there are members that offer a trading service on here.

I can recommend the new BIT-X debit card. Easy and reliable to use. You can also sell your Bitcoins @ BIT-X for a normal bank wire.

BIT-X debit card have high fees but for signature campaign emrollees and for first 1,000(or 10,000) will be charged with lesser fees.

I recommend BTC-e if you are using a debit/credit card to buy Bitcoins.

Hi, i have not used Bitstamp but with yacuna.com no problems, you need identity verification . You can also do it in ATMs , but the daily and monthly amount is very small, about 600 USD a day (in my country). In xapo.com also need identity verification. In Payza.com also need to verify your identity and you can only withdraw 20,000 USD per transaction.

Greetings.

From another post:

May be a little OT but in case you don't need USD as FIAT:

Check out BitShares BitUSD (http://whatisbitusd.com)

BitUSD is pegged to the value of real USD. That means 1 BitUSD today will be worth 1 real USD tomorrow, without issuing an IOU.

Some highlights:

► Earns Interest - Current Yield 2.08% (https://bitsharesblocks.com/assets/market)

► No Counterparty Risk

► Blockchain Secure

Exchange for BTC either through Shapeshift.io or the internal exchange metaexchange.info

BTW: if you want to play around with BitShares, I run a giveaway on bitsharestalk: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,14780.0.html

One of the best sites I would recommend using is localbitcoins best going and have never had any problems buying selling with people who are actively trading on localbitcoins.

You don't have any trust rating here in Bitcointalk. And even if you had a positive trust almost none of the guys here will exchange their Bitcoins for Paypal. Why can't you use Western Union or some other method?

Yeah its always a bad idea to do p2p (person to person) paypal stuff without a third party. Virwox is the only way I know but it sucks (fees too high).

Buying / Selling BTC through VirWox is a bit complicated. First you have to convert your fiat / BTC to Linden Dollars. You cant directly convert BTC to USD or USD to BTC. So you will have to pay the fee twice. Not an attractive option.

Linden Dollars is game money, you can play with it. I dont like this idea for a exchange

xCoins.io is better than Virwox. The transaction is straight forward, PayPal for bitcoin, no other steps. It's also quick. Takes minutes to get bitcoin.

Or, if someone needs to convert bitcoin to PayPal, they can do it and earn a fee for each conversion. The site acts as in intermediary, tracks the payment, and provides an agreement for both parties. Risk of payment reversal is lower than on other platforms.

Where you live ? in America? I think quite a lot of exchanges in that country more than other countries, which you do is simply  find a trusted exchange sites.

What the hell?
Does anybody uses yobit for selling bitcoins? i think that is a crazy idea,it is not worth it.
You better convert it to fiat at some other exchanges,the really trusted one's that are in this business for a long time.

You can sell you bitcoin for USD in yobit,net with current price. And after you sell the bitcoin, you can withdraw USD from yobit to
OkPay fee (2%), PerfectMoney fee (2%), Payeer fee (5%). I hope this will help you. Thankyou

i think you should be careful when you want to sell your bitcoin and you should choose the only recommended seller, in this forum or even in outside like localbitcoin or other site, because when you send the bitcoin amount, you can get it back if the bad thing is happen. i will give the advice for you, better you find your own friends in around you so you can feel safety when you want to sell your bitcoin, and i am sure that you can find your friends with easy like me.

Hey, I use coinbase. I have also used Localbitcoin in the past

i think when you sell bitcoin you eather go and sell it hand to hand with someone who you can trust especialy when there is too much at risk or exchange them for fiat in debit cards there are a lot debit cards out their who can axchange bitcoin and from there you can buy stuff or withdraw them

There is no danger in selling bitcoins on localbitcoins.com because there is a built-in escrow system, you are holding the bitcoins until the buyer sends the money to you, you will get them in minutes if you are using a bank account for receiving the funds, i personally never tried any other methods except bank transfer which always went smooth.

You can sell your bitcoins from exchange website where you are going to make a good profit when you are going to sell it from exchange because you can doo trading also there from another coins. Also in localbitcoins is really good and trusted website too. Or find a client from your country and then meet up.

I use for the most bitstamp and coinbase

It would be better to not sell them. However if you decide to sell make sure you do a very strict research on the website you want to sell.

Coinbase, Circle, Bitstamp and Localbitcoins are some of the most well known websites to help you achieve that.

If you want to go somewhere else not long ago a few exchanges popped up in the service discussion  here and the only transaction they did was scam someone even with very low quantity. 

Always use well known and famous websites for such thing.

Coinbase, Circle, Bitstamp don't support all countries worldwide, while Localbitcoins still the best because it's open worldwide (or at least for the most countries).
But as you noticed , selling the coins should be the last choice.

Localbitcoins.com , inpay.com etc.
Just watchout, because if you are from US you need to pay a tax from it.
Unless you do it secretly ;)

Instead of selling selling bitcoin to usd why don't you trade with BTC/USD it is giving little profit and in coming days you will make more money for sure.

You can exchange them to USD in this forum here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0 to any other USD based payment processor.
Or use your local trusted exchanger in your country.

But you should warn to not choose anyone to do this exchange because of high risk of fraud happening there now. Especially with paypal or reversible processors.

Looking to buy 30+coins at -5% locally or with cash by mail.
Also have an old $500 Reloadit id trade at market value.
Escrow here or on Paxful.
Peace.

I have heard you can do this safely on virwox and to a lesser extent paxful.
It all depends what method of payment you would want really.

Virwox is safe and secure, especially for paypal, but the fees are extremely high, It is really hard to make profit if you are trading this way.
A better idea would be to find a trusted trader on localbitcoins for example. They'll not scam you and offer good rates.

How if his needing money and his looking for someone to sold his bitcoin? If there's an emergency i suggest to him to find an good trader from exchange website and choose a payment option that he can preferred with.

There are two ways by using them you can sell your Bitcoins for USD:-
1) You can use an exchange to convert your Bitcoins into USD and if you want to Use an exchange then I suggest you to use Localbitcoins.com Exchange.
2) You can Go to the Currency Exchange Section of this forum and Find a reputable exchanger there and don't forget to hire a escrow for your Safety.
