Title: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: Pantagruel on December 13, 2013, 12:32:30 PM Hello,
I am new to this forum and eager to learn. Reading the Newbies section i understand that many are here to make a quick buck. I don't know how it could happen, being so late in the party, so i will first focus on trying to understand bitcoin. So i have a question : what is the best exchange in your opinion and why ? Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: greyhawk on December 13, 2013, 12:34:45 PM I like the ones that get "hacked" and steal their clients coins.
They're the best for comedy purposes. Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: zyxxer on December 13, 2013, 12:49:55 PM Bitstamp is realiable and there are little withdraw/deposit issues
Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: MicroGuy on December 13, 2013, 12:53:47 PM I think you probably want to buy Bitcoins from CoinBase and Altcoins from Cryptsy! ;D

There are lots of good exchanges, but don't store coins on them long term or use them as a wallet alternative, several have gone down or been hacked. Just some friendly advice. :) Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: ToTheMoon1k on December 13, 2013, 01:36:26 PM Coinbsse seems best at the moment

Bitstamp, reliable, high volume Coinbsse seems best at the moment If you mean Coinbase it is not exchange, you cant daytrade there Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: __ johnnyb__ on December 13, 2013, 04:10:17 PM I would recommend if you can to buy and hold.. many people have lost a lot of money doing day trade..
Many people speculate that Bitcoin will reach at least $10,000 per coin! So you can't go wrong holding them.. (unless they colapse to 0 ;) ) Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: Pantagruel on December 13, 2013, 05:37:08 PM Thank you all for your help.
So Coinbase and Bitstamp seem to lead this topic. Nobody talked about Mtgox, i thought this was the first exchange ? Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: fivejonnyfive on December 13, 2013, 06:07:51 PM In my experience I've found coinbase to be pretty good. They do make you jump through a bunch of hoops and wait a bit to get your bitcoins, but after a month from your first purchase you can make instant purchases.
Selling coins from them is pretty good as well, though I have experienced some delays, but nowhere near what other exchanges can subject you too. It seems like they use bitstamp's prices with a little bit of a delay. MtGox has been subjected to a lot of scrutiny by US regulators and as I understand it, it's hard to use with dollars these days.

So i have a question : what is the best exchange in your opinion and why ? Coinbase takes couple days for you to buy and sell coins, approx 4~5 days. And, You need to submit your driver's license image, utilities bill image in order to trade........ in Mtgox. Because Uncle Sam wants to know what (how) are you doing.. ::) Title: Re: Hello i'm new and eager to learn Post by: bowser91 on December 13, 2013, 08:35:45 PM I am also new to bitcoin. I am planning on purchasing a Black Arrow X-3 miner. Not sure whether to purchase directly from Black Arrow or from minersource.net which appears to be the official US reseller. Its like 200 dollars cheaper to buy from minersource.net but I am unsure if it makes a difference whether I order from them or Black Arrow. Any advice would be appreciated.
