Bitcoin Forum

Hello, I am looking to purchase $100 USD worth of Bitcoins by tonight! Where can i buy bitcoins instantly or where is fastest place to buy them? I have already used my coinbase instant buy limit so i can't use that. When i try to buy them off my bank account i have to wait till friday so that is no good. Any help would be appreciated.

Regards
Randy

i'll sell you bitcoins for paypal $ with a few % markup..

have you tried localbitcoins.com?

circle should be faster than any bank account(in my case with kraken i usually receive sepa in 8 hours max), other solution could be paypal, but be aware of scammers trade always and only with trusted user + escrow

Buy Bitcoin at Localbitcoins is great but It's not instant. I think you should try it at BTC-E

There are many site where you can buy Bitcoin for instant as alfacashier, Localbitcoins,...

I have heard few complaints about Localbitcoins (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=457225.0) so you could try using Ebay or even https://www.virwox.com/.

Virwox is great if you are on a serious hurry but i think its limited to 80 USD the first time and the fees are high...

There are many site to buy BTC instant but I recommend you Localbitcoins

Instant means:

- In person cash (Localbitcoins (https://localbitcoins.com/?ch=3a82))
- Credit card (Circle, others?)
- Paypal or other online payment networks (OTC)

Its not instant if you're using a bank to do the transactions.

Did you have a try alfacashier.com ? 3% fee and instant

Localbitcoin only if it s really something you need ATM.

If you can wait for verification procedure, then take a look at my sig or check out cex.io.

Let me know if you  still need bitcoins? We trade bitcoins everyday. www.bitcoinservice.net

Are you seriously recommending eBay or Virwox over LocalBitcoins? LocalBitcoins is the best P2P option, bar none. Unless you're using stolen PayPal funds, eBay and Virwox are a waste of time.

Getting bitcoins instantly through purchase (and not mining) can be done through person-to-person transactions. You can use localbitcoins.com for example to setup a trade with someone in your area for a cash transaction if you wanted. Some wallets offer "trader" options, such as Mycelium where like localbitcoins, you can meet up with people in your area (who use the app) to have an in-person transaction. You can also try a Bitcoin ATM for immediate bitcoins, you will have to find one in your area. Other than those options, you will have to use an exchange but it's not instant as most require leadup time to get you verified.

that was just one case scenario of a scammer don't need to panic just for that, local bitcoin as it is now is one of the fastest method to acquire bitcoin and it is decentralized..

With regards to fees, yes Virwox is not good enough but even Localbitcoins has a $20-$25 difference in the rates as per the market price.



I personally too don't like Localbitcoins as it does not let me open a trade without having 0.4 BTC in my account. I have seen the rates are higher than the market rate.



Most people seemed unhappy about the website and in case of Localbitcoins, yeah the method is fast but even VirWox is a trusted site.

What? I traded on there last week with 0BTC in my account.

I am talking about listing my trade. They dint let me advertise my trade without having 0.4 BTC in my account and I guess you directly traded with the buyer/seller.

This is the message I get when I try to advertise a trade:

The advertisement is not currently running, because your LocalBitcoins.com wallet does not have enough bitcoins to automatically fund the escrow in the case a buyer responds to this advertisement. You need at least 0.40 BTC and advertisement minimum limit.

Yes I did. That's good info to know though. I had no idea. Is that for advertising a buying or selling trade?

It was a selling trade.
