21  Economy / Currency exchange / Looking to buy a BTC-E.com Voucher. on: May 08, 2013, 07:59:45 PM
'Sup, looking to buy a BTC-E.com voucher.  I am interested in buying this Face 2 Face or maybe a UK Bank Transfer. We can maybe talk about other methods. If you do have Litecoins then that would be fine as I just want to get my hands on some Litecoin.

just because you didn't have any ID (which is a dumb thing to do, why don't you just always carry your ID?)

Depends on what kind of ID we are talking about. In my country there's the ID and there's driver license. I often carry the driver's license but I hardly ever carry the ID and I believe the opposite, that it's dumb thing to do to always carry the ID. I can't get a bank loan or even withdraw cash from my bank account with my driver's license - and that's a good thing. I also don't do these things in my average day. The ID on the other side is more than enough for identity theft and if you have a bank clerk working with you, it's trivial to take lots of loans with stolen IDs.

I see a lot of people with wallets full of sensitive stuff - five to ten different cards, all kinds of IDs, basically with every financial and/or personal information token they have. Now that is a dumb thing to do to always carry all that with yourself even if you hardly ever need most of this stuff. I usually have just cash and/or one low-limit/balance card for everyday usage and driver's license with me. I pick other stuff on a intend-to-use basis. I never had my wallet lost or stollen, but if I had, no really harm done. Losing a wallet with the ID and all the cards on the other side, now that's a real pain in the ass and possibility of being a victim of some financial/identity theft crime. Thanks, but no thanks.

I do carry ID, they wanted a passport tho.

I've been having the same problem, focus. It's so hard to access Btc-e if you don't actually use bitcoins to transfer the money.

Yea, hard to get your foot into the door.

A UK bank would be awesome for BTC-E.com but I guess some banks don't allow BTC.
25  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to get funds onto BTC-E. on: May 08, 2013, 05:22:12 PM
Use okpay?


Seems complicated, I am a newb to all this. Never done a wire transfer before, or sent money abroad.

It's no doubt gone for good buddy, don't let this put you off Bitcoin.
27  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to get funds onto BTC-E. on: May 08, 2013, 04:52:44 PM
Buy bitcoins (elsewhere). Those are easy to transfer Wink

If there was another easy method prices wouldn't be constantly lower.

That might be good, buy more Bitcoin and change to Litecoin. I have seen people sell these vouchers for BTC-E.com is there a site to buy them.

Hey guys,

Looking to venture into Litecoin and noticed you can get them for USD on BTE-C.com but the way to get funds onto there seems really hard and annoying. Any other way to get funds onto there, would be good if you could help.

Worked, thanks to everyone who helped me out. Another quick question where would I be able to buy some Litecoin, I have done some Face 2 Face trades with Bitcoin but Litecoin is hard to find.
30  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Litecoin Help. on: May 08, 2013, 02:48:22 PM
same as bitcoin the block chain has become corrupt for some reason simply go to

C:\Users\Windows 7\AppData\Roaming\Litecoin

create a copy of the wallet.dat file (just incase) and delete blkindex and if its there any blk0001

reload wallet (should still have same address) and boom let it redownload and your done

Having a bit of trouble finding the AppData file.

You can only withdraw 300 GBP a day from them.

Do all banks in UK have such ridiculously low ATM limits, or are there some which have higher limits?

ATM withdrawal limits in German banks are commonly 1000 EUR or 2000 EUR a day (roughly 850 GBP or 1700 GBP), in Polish banks 5000 PLN a day is most common (around 1000 GBP).

Why do UK banks prevent people for using ATM's for larger amounts, while on the continent many banks have no problem with that, which is very useful when for example buying a used car from someone. So when you buy a used car in UK after bank opening hours you can't withdraw the money from an ATM, but have to do it earlier, and then carry the cash around - not very safe. Better keep it on the account until the deal is decided on, which can often happen in evening after-work hours when banks are closed. A thousand or two worth of Euros or pounds is a common amount to pay in cash for a used car, so UK banks force unsafe practice of having to withdraw earlier and carry cash around in such cases?

That's because UK banks have recently had bank runs so they dont dare put the limits up.  It's something people in the UK have wanted for years.  

EDIT: Note -- expect this in germany soon! Smiley


True, if banks go bust you will have thousands of people withdrawing all their money from ATM's.

I am looking to maybe get a hold of some more Bitcoin as I only have 8 at the moment but I looked on this site BTC-E and it seems pretty hard to deposit but I noticed there is a voucher system. How do I buy a voucher, new to all these exchanges.

That is weird. In my country you can usually set your own limits for each card. ATMs have hard limit of a single withdrawal amount but it's mostly due to number of bills that can be disposed in one go (20-30 bills). But if you want more, you can simply withdraw twice. I used to withdraw equivalents of 3000 GBP without any problems.

Yea, it sucks. Shame it's my account and I can't even set my own limits.

Yea, it's the limit everywhere. Not sure, think it is for fraud purposes. ATM fraud is high in the UK, helps avoid someone cleaning your bank out.

Don't you have ATMs over there in Britain?

Yea, that's the second thought - why didn't you use an ATM?

You can only withdraw 300 GBP a day from them.

Ah, I always thought they was the things you pay 5 USD for and you can put money on them and then put money on your PayPal with.
37  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Seriously now... on: May 08, 2013, 07:17:21 AM
I'm just trying to imagine one of these plugged into every computer in the world :



I'm sure Bart Chilton wouldn't like that.

On the other hand, he might just plug one in himself.

Just in case.

sorry for the question but what is that

A mini Bitcoin miner.

If you keep receiving MoneyPak PayPal will eventually close your account as it states MoneyPak are not suppose to be used that way for commercial use. Only for personal use, like topping up your own account and buying stuff online.

are you talking about the cardboard ones? the scratch off ones? one time only ones?

technically you are buying something on-line.

i dont want to break any laws but in my resurch I did not see any law preventing people to use the card in such manner.

thank you for bringing up any potential issues though. i have worked to hard on this for it to fall apart now haha. .... wait why am i lafing? blaaa

I knew someone who used to sell items by it, they got a email from PayPal explaining to stop using MoneyPak for his business. Not sure if the rules have changed, he was accepting like 3 a day and they finally said to stop.

paypal has nothing to do with green dot.


Green Dot debit cards are available in many stores, including CVS/pharmacy, Kmart, 7-Eleven and Walgreens and walmart.[4] This is only a temporary card for single use and does not come with customer's name on it, and instead it says "Valued Customer". Temporary cards are not re-loadable.

can you tell me what paypal has to do with this? any info is good info....as long as it is true info. thanks

You upload them onto your PayPal correct, PayPal doesn't like you using them as a non business use. I'm only saying what happened to my friend, they may allow it now not sure.

The 5 posts are easy, it's the 4 hours that were pretty annoying. It never seemed to go up, finally made it out tho.
