Title: Any other sites similar to Circle Bitcoin Exchange?
Post by: Kujmandosz on October 25, 2014, 12:05:00 AM
I have a US bank account and debit card, and I am trying to buy bitcoins instantly. So far I have found Circle as a great option however there verification process is taking forever.

Do you guys know any other sites where I can send in money and get my bitcoins within a day?

A number of sites that cater to US citizens are Coinbase, Kraken, CampBX, CoinMKT and ZipZap. I haven't had any first hand experience with any of these though.

Once Circle verifies, it is the fastest source of BTC to/from USD.  ;)

I have been using coinbase since. Why should I transfer to others?

Coinbase is pretty good, but they have been known to cancel transactions for no legitimate reason.

Coinbase is definitely NOT user friendly. I wonder why people still use it.

Never heard of coinMKT or ZipZap but have used kraken a couple times. Not a bad site :D

People will have the same kinds of problems with cirlce too (they have just not been around for long enough for people to report them like they have of coinbase.

With both of these services you are essentially taking out a short term loan from cirlce/coinbase until they actually receive the money from your purchase

Coinbase has been good for me to use, It may not be much user friendly but you will be good if you decide to stay for a long period and get more familiar with it. It's also a best alternative of Circle.

Fiverr.com is also using coinbase for their bitcoin payments.

Circle and Coinbase are the one exchanges I would mess with.

There are a lot of options, you can register an account in online trading platform(such as  OKCOIN:https://www.okcoin.com/), and then  deposited   some dollars   into your account, then buy the BTC, then Withdraw the BTC .

I think Coinbase, Circle, and Kraken are all good options... trustworthy and reasonably secure thus far, with significant VC backing.

That said, if you're relatively new to Bitcoin and you like to keep your coins in those wallets, I recommend using all three -- plus Blockchain.
It sounds like you're investing, so it's ideal to diversify in order to reduce specific risk (i.e. your main wallet company Gox'ing).

I have never had an issue using Coinbase, either. I've bought and sold quite extensively, on there, over the past 16 or so months and never a hiccup.

I think Circle was overhyped.

That makes at least 2 people with no coinbase issues.

Coinbase is terrible for non-US users.

This is true as of "yesterday" however this should change as coinbase is attempting to expand their market base overseas (as of recently). I would anticipate that coinbase will be just as good for people in much of the world as it is for US customers

You are quite gullible.
