Bitcoin Forum

Im looking for resources to buy btc same day, doesnt have to be instant just withing the same day... I know about LBC obviously and want to pay a regular price (bitstamp +1%) Are there any large miners that can service me or any resources (cant wait for circle!)

there's a lot of exchanges out there Jesus. or if you live in the united states, go with coinbase

localbitcoins.com if you want it ASAP.

I`d suggest to listen to this person and head over to localbitcoins.com and find a ad to your choice.

Personally from experience I do all deals in person, if its the amount of 1 btc. $400 or up unless they have a tremendous feed back history.

Paypal is another option for most people on there, despite its risks. I`d purchase small amounts at a time.

The only down fall would be what you wanted, as in the price range. It doesnt offer bitstamps price you pay a slight premium for the bitcoin.

BitSimple (https://bitsimple.com) can deliver coins directly to your wallet the same day.  Funding is by bank wire and the minimum purchase is $500.  We charge no fees, the price quoted is the price you pay.

I will also go with localbitcoins.com because on this site you can meet buyers from all around world and in your local place for face to face exchange

I would advice you tot visit http://howtobuybitcoins.info

localbitcoins can be quite a pain though, especially when people don't respond to your inquiries in time.

Local bitcoin is the best choice for you also you can use the exchange section of this forums, and there are off course tons of exchanges, as long as you transfer money in advance, the best thing to do is to mix the sources so you are never stuck if you want to be serviced everyday

Coinbase is pretty close to Bitstamp's exchange rate.

Once you verify your bank and validate a credit card, you can purchase up to $1000 in BTC instantly.

You can buy up to $50,000 worth of Bitcoins after a few transactions with Coinbase, but this usually clears in a few days.

Hello

I have been learning HTML and CSS for about 2 months now and I created a site called:  simplycoin (http://www.simplycoin.co.uk) that I could show to potential employers to help me get a trainee job.


It is aimed at helping newcomers to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.

Check it out.  Let me know what you think.

Thanks.

Depending on your location, you could try a Bitcoin ATM.   http://bitcoinatmmap.com/ (http://bitcoinatmmap.com/)
Another option is a local trader (afk), trade directly.

Circle just launched but I think they're invite only.

You can find a local Bitcoin dealer through various routes. I signed up at Coinbase and after a month you can start making large instant purchases.

localbitcoins.com is always the best for me. you just need to find someone reliable and with good reputation. most different ways to pay i think

I almost got scammed on localbitcoins.com when i met up with some dude, and he tried to change the price on me...

Coinbase

Do not go with coinbase if you plan to purchase a large amount of bitcoins.. I heard that they have many problems with the users that buy in bulk.
I'd suggest looking in the "Currency Exchange" part of this marketplace, there are many sellers...  Just remember to use escrow when you can.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0

You can buy it from me?  :P

I have bought bitcoins from Coinbase ("in bulk") several times and I have never had a problem.

I suggest a bitcoin ATM, it does not take much time to convert your money into Bitcoins. If you do not have an bitcoin atm at your country, try localbitcoins. I personally have excellent experience with the sellers at localbitcoins.

How come everyone mentions coinbase?

When theres bitcoin atm`s coming to there states, I seen one for texas.

Because you can get BTC instantly if it's $1000 worth or under.

i know you already mentioned LBC but tbh its the only way i have found to buy/sell btc instantly without waiting for payments to clear, etc

When you are going to buy BTC, you must choose reliable site. You may get more information on it
http://www.coindesk.com/information/how-can-i-buy-bitcoins/

bitsimple.com has always been fast and professional.

There are many sellers on localbitcoins that can confirm payment and release the coins quickly. With that being said you will likely need to pay for this service in the form of a higher spread above the exchange rate. There are a number of BTC ATMs throughout the country and world that can let you buy BTC for cash pretty much instantly (https://bitcoinatm.com/) however they will also charge some kind of premium.

Or you could just use BitSimple ( https://bitsimple.com ) fast and low cost.

Use Bitsimple if you are in US.
Use Bittylicious if you are in UK
Use bitcoin ATMs if you can find one near you.
Use localbitcoins otherwise.

You can use LBC they are a lot seller even out of the country offcourse you have to pay extra .

If you use trading site you cant get the btc at the same day you will need deposit and then confirm to buy sell .

have you been on IRC ?
find a trusted seller, work out a deal, deposit money into their bank over the teller and you should be able to get it same day.

In australia we have a few companies, you deposit money into their bank account (in branch over teller) and you get an hour or four later.
I don't get why other countries don't do the same ??

What i suggest is LBC have escrow its anyhow better than doing it on IRC with people you don even know .

I buy every bitcoin from localbitcoins.com cause its less of a hassle.  :D

 Atm if there is one near by. I have used Coinbase several times without any problems.

one day ill be able to participate in non beginner discussions on this site

i pray everyday to the flying spaghetti monster so that this may happen

The only method I have found for this is P2P -- Localbitcoins or the marketplace on this forum, for instance. It's my preference when I want to buy NOW, and not wait 3-5 days for my wire to go through and be properly credited at an exchange.

Paying 2-4% over bitstamp on localbitcoins is not extortionate!

The Mycellium wallet now has built in P2P trading.

Hi bro !

Use www.bitstars.net

You can deposit with paypal, and then you can withdraw Bitcoin. Easily no?

But, there is a limit of 1 BTC to day, so, if it is sufficient for you, use it ;)

The first time I bought BTC was through Virwox.com (I still occasionally buy from there). You can deposit using Paypal, Skrill and others. On your first purchase it can take up to 48hrs for you to receive your Bitcoins because they have to manually check your account but after that it's pretty much within a few hours.
The only drawback is that you'll shed some dollars in fees. For example on my first deposit of $50, I got around $43-44 worth of Bitcoin.
But it's convenient and safe.

Localbitcoins for sure. If you find user with account in same bank then it's matter of minutes.

I'm sure, exchangers like wm-center and others can easily provide this, even it will help more if you've talked to the one of the representatives.

wm-center? I believe it has been gone for over a year lol. :D

No, they have the same domain but with .es instead of .com

Oh, I didn't know that.

I just checked the site, and found the bitcoin price is insane...

http://www.wm-center.es/buy/

http://www.wm-center.es/sell/

Wow, that's like a 13% fee there. That's brutal. I would just go to a trusted seller on localbitcoins and pay a smaller premium there. 13% just can't be worth it...

Localbitcoin is faster

i've heard some people have the ability to purchase instantly on Coinbase (may be only smaller amounts) -- i have never bought there and did not seem to have this ability on my account. when i want coins ASAP, i use cash on LBC. it's the only way to get it right away.

Buy it in person, if its a large amount or cash deposit at lbc.com

you can also use the forum's marketplace (currency exchange subforum) to trade fiat for BTC and vice versa. you can use same-day methods like bank teller deposit or online bank transfer, so if you find a trustworthy trader looking to sell, you could get it done same day in theory.

I use this service

It usually takes a little while longer then that as the seller needs to be online, check their online banking and release escrow.

If they are not online then it would take longer.

If you setup a time for you to deposit then it is usally done within an hour or so but not minutes.

Face to face trades would probably be best.

Best option would be using a local trusted exchange, if you have this option in your country. You can ask for reliable local exchanges in the subforum of your language, if you are not from an english-speaking country, or maybe here, if your language is english but your home is not UK or USA.

Or find some friend with bitcoin, but unlikely, since bitcoin still is underground.

Exchanges will not allow you to buy the same day.

Here I can transfer or deposit money from a local bank account, then send the deposit's information and they put the money deposited minus fees on my account. Usually happens in the same business day, if I make deposit and send confirmation before noon. Don't know how things are in USA and in other parts of the world.

You might need to verify ID, but at least here it quick, and there is at least one exchange that lets you make cash deposits without veryfiying, but with low daily limit, and with no direct bank transfer.

There is no such site lol, or do you mean localbitcoins  ???

The easiest and fastest way to buy bitcoin is to do it p2p.
You just need to find a trusted trader on localbitcoins or the "currency exchange" section here.  :)

an exchange ?
satoshi square ?
careful with private transactions......

bitcoin , popular as it is as as much as (most of us here) people are all for it I am still amazed that it is not that easy to aquire for new people to the scene , or in general for that matter......   of course once you have some .... i guess it is easy to forget about these things for those of us who have been playing around with it for a while....

Either Localbitcoin or Bitcoin ATM would be useful. Becareful if you are meeting another person from Localbitcoin alone. There have been cases of people being robbed when they meet up. Try to find a place that is safe and is crowded.

What I was saying is that exchanges will make you wait several days after you send them funds while they wait for the funds to clear

If you use virwox, you don't need to verify your documents and you can transfer using PayPal instantly. That only applies to PayPal though.

They let you transfer money to them using paypal? How do they prevent themselves from getting scammed?

They are first converted from the money to SLL, they can prove that the user actually recieved the SLL that was brought. They are established business with their own merchant account. They do not only sell bitcoin and they also have higher fees and lower limits.

Virwox has very high fees. And if you are a first time user, I don't think you can even pay for $100 worth of bitcoin if you wanted to. I never bothered with that site...

You don't have to go through all that AML/KYC verification which takes alot of time. For newbies, they would want to buy around $10 to test bitcoin, no matter how much is the fees, I believe most newbies would rather use their existing paypal to pay for BTC and not verify ID and wait for a few days before buying it.

So the low limits are what stop the scams (via making it not worth a hacker's time to scam) plus the higher fees (lower profit for a hacker plus the higher revenue from non-scammers makes up for the scams)

Is bitstars.com safe way to get your coins the same day?

I use 2 websites and they are both very good, easy to use, fast delivery and no problems at all.

Bitcoin Insanity

http://www.bitcoininsanity.com?affiliates=854  - US based (that is my affiliate link )

Bittylicious
http://bittylicious.com/  UK based - Trust pilot reviews - https://www.trustpilot.co.uk/review/www.bittylicious.com?page=2 my review is on this page

This sounds very inefficient for someone who wants to buy bitcoin as an investment, or really even as a method of buying something as this would likely take away most if not all of bitcoin's efficiencies.

HI EVERYONE ------ BEWARE!!!!

I got ripped by these guys last night!!

www.coingoo.com

I have no coins to start forging, Im a noob, so in my desperation I read the message posted in the forum and payed USD$56 for purchasing 1000NXT... of course I didn't receive anything!! not even an e-mail confirmation.

The have been spamming the forum...
Dont buy from these guys!!!

best

If you live in the SEPA region you could try kraken.

if you live in the netherlands (or have a dutch bank account rather) you can use bitonic (https://bitonic.nl/?partner=167) for near instant buying and selling

Sorry to see your loss.
I believe that site has been using bots to spam the forum for many weeks, and the posts are usually removed by mods very soon after creation.

I bought some coins from virwox works fine

I suggest you try BitcoinInsanity and Virwox.

What do you mean same day? You can buy BTC as much as you want as long as you have FIAT in LocalBitcoins

I buy  at  Virwox.

Same day means that the coin will be exchanged without delays. Usually for exchanges, they need time to transfer the funds and it can take up to a week. Localbitcoin may not be the same day since it may take some time for user to arrange a meetup to exchange BTC. It depends on the spare time the buyer and seller have usually.

Virwox taking too much in fees just because of this many peoples don't like to buy from them

I sell BTC and you could be my first customer ;D
I will offer you bitstamp price + 3% + all fees paid by you
accepted form of payments:
money in mail,
US wire transfer*
International wire transfer*

wire transfers must clear before Bitcions are released and bitstamp price will be used on the day wire is cleared and not when the wire is sent.

there are no refunds.

Afaik Bitstamp doesnt have any limits.

Exactly.
If you are buying bitcoin with Paypal, Virwox may be a good choice.
But if you able to do other payments, you can get a much lower fee on other exchanges. :)

I think that the best exchange at the moment is BitStamp, I trust them and their costumer service.

But some time they take too much time which is very painful and OP need bitcoin same day

Why the heck are you guys still replying on this topic? The OP asked this question in May. I think he has found the answer in the mean time.

I have used 3 options:

- Circle, actually you need an invitation but you can get 500$ of bitcoin just for having a credit card.
- Localbitcoins via deposit in the bank.
- In cas or atm.

If you want to get bitcoin fast, the best option is to use Localbitcoins or Bittylicious (if you are in the UK).
I don't think you can get bitcoin for just bitstamp+1% though. You probably need to pay bitstamp+5%.

buy it on exchange or coinbase if you are in the US.

Or for other localbitcoins.com is more preferred.

You can buy Bitcoin within the same hour from many exchangers,if you found this forum to ask this question how come you didn't found the answer on almighty GOOGLE  ;)

https://bitonic.nl/sell
I highly recommend them.

That's just in the Netherlands. Not really helpful.

you can registered at bitcoin.co.id, you can buy some bitcoin with your dollar
and then you can invest it on mining website like PBmining.com or CEX.IO
hopefull you can earn a lot of bitcoin in there ...

Buying hashrate on cex.io isn't a good idea IMO.
The GHS price is way too high there, and the maintenance price is very high as well.

The main question is just from where he can buy bitcoin same day he is not asking for any advice about any investment please read post 1
