Title: mtgox deposit/cashout methods time frame Post by: accord01 on May 14, 2011, 09:28:08 AM What is the best way to deposit money on mtgox with a 1:1 ratio and also it would be instant?
I am skeptical to do trades on forums unless it is with highly reputable/commercial members. I think we all are. I will update this thread when i find a way to put $ on mtgox at a 1:1 ratio. I feel like not getting a 1:1 ratio for USD is unreasonable considering trades are raked .65%.

Buying into the Bit Coin market is splitting my head in two.

It doesn't completely answer your question (I think the answer may be that it's not possible, due to fees charged by Liberty Reserve, but it's not something I've ever needed to do) but...I am skeptical to do trades on forums unless it is with highly reputable/commercial members.

What about buying bitcoins over-the-counter, using bitcoin-otc (http://bitcoin-otc.com)? That way you negotiate a price you're happy with, there's the Web of Trust tool to assess how trustworthy the counter-party is, and the only fees are any bank charges - there's no 0.65% trading fee. If you're interested in speculating on MtGox (or any other exchange), once you've bought your bitcoins you could deposit them at the exchange (which is, IIRC, fee-free at MtGox) then speculate away! When it comes to cashing out, simply withdraw your bitcoins to your own bitcoin address, and sell them using bitcoin-otc.

Meanwhile the price has soared. What's 1% compared to 1460% gain in just about 5 weeks?

Well i just put few hundred online, and i'd like to get another $1k on there in the next few days, so it hasn't really been a week. But my main concern isn't really the fees, but the speed and safety of the transactions.

I believe mtgox is fee free for any transfers of the same unit.

Cool, thanks for the info!Title: Re: mtgox deposit/cashout methods time frame Post by: MagicalTux on May 14, 2011, 11:41:10 AM What is the best way to deposit money on mtgox with a 1:1 ratio and also it would be instant? Instant deposit method for now is only LR (when their api is not blocking us, in which case it can take up to one hour). We are trying to get Dwolla to do callbacks for us too, however they are not much responsive at this point (see http://www.dwolla.org/d ). In the meantime to validate transactions I have to go on the dwolla website, download the "csv" file and upload it to mtgox. I do this each time I see a dwolla "you have received money" email, which can be fast (during my working hours) or not (when I sleep, for example). Just hope dwolla will allow me to have this done automatically :) Title: Re: mtgox deposit/cashout methods time frame Post by: bitcoinTrader on May 15, 2011, 08:39:01 AM What is the best way to deposit money on mtgox with a 1:1 ratio and also it would be instant?
