What is the purpose of due diligence for wire transfers?

Hold off on offers for now since I'm more interested in selling through localbitcoins at the moment.

I want to sell about 5k to 10k USD of Bitcoin. 5k minimum. I don't mind escrow, but I heard people buy user accounts here, so I was wondering how to tell if someone bought an account that had done a lot of escrowing.

Hi,
If you are receivng Bitcoin from an exchange, is 1 confirmation enough before sending to someone else?

I am increasingly concerned. I've attempted several times to get USD wired out of Kraken over the past 8 days, and the wire requests have "Failed" or stay as "Pending", without reason given. I am tier 4. I have submitted at least two support requests with zero response (one was sent 7 days ago). I know Kraken was working hard last week fixing their new trading engine. But the failure to wire money both BEFORE that shutdown period as well as afterward is starting to get concerning. Anyone else having trouble with fiat withdrawals?
Check if the wire hit your bank account. I had problems with fiat withdrawals failing but also have received without Kraken showing it as a successful wire. |

This is about Electrum/PC and Coinomi/Android. I see several others here have had exactly the same problem, but I have not seen any resolution posted. 3 days ago I opened this as a support ticket with Coinomi -- no answer or reply so far: Hello, I sent all my BTC from my Electrum wallet to Coinomi *after* the fork. Then I tried "Sweep wallet" into my (empty) BCH Coinomi wallet using the private key of one of the old Electrum BTC wallet addresses. Coinomi says, " This private key does not contain any funds". Yes, I know it doesn't contain funds any more -- I had sent those funds to my Coinomi wallet! You can see the transaction where I sent my BTC from Electrum to Coinomi here: https://blockchain.info/tx/e4b5ab39e541b96b5db238e521faae913f098f1de260e09e3645f1ada628b452I still have the private keys of each of those 8 pre-fork fund-containing addresses. I know Coinomi sees there are no funds in them *now*, but is there a way to let Coinomi see that I had them *then* so the Bitcoin Cash will show up? Did I lose all my Bitcoin Cash from my pre-fork BTC by doing "Sweep wallet" *after* I had sent the BTC to Coinomi (thus emptying my Electrum wallet)? Is that BCH unavailable to me now forever? I now realize I should have done the BCH "sweep wallet" with those private keys while the BTC funds were still in the Electrum wallet -- THEN I could have moved all my BTC to Coinomi. But the damage has been done. Does anyone reading this thread have any clue as to how I can get a hold of my Bitcoin Cash, or is it gone -- somewhere out there in limbo -- forever? Did you use qrcode like the first poster recommended? Coinomi says you can type a private key, but copying and pasting the letters didn't work for me. |

I think you did the right thing. There are other options for BCH besides Coinomi, and transferring BTC after the fork doesn't affect BCH |

I am having some problems with Electrum. I got the qrcode thru desktop and transferred it to an Android device, but I can't figure out how to scan the code. I tried typing the private key due to the problems I'm having with qrcode, but it didn't get me any coins.

I thought Coinomi was a very trusted piece of software. Why send the BTC to another address before using Coinomi if Coinomi is trustworthy? I don't understand why you would allow an application to see your private key for BCH yet not for BTC. I know Bitcoin is worth a lot more, but there is tremendous incentive to steal BCH as well.
Are they trustworthy? I guess. But everyone is trustworthy until they aren't. Right? Not sure why you wouldn't send the BTC to another address though. It's just an extra precaution that doesn't really cost you anything (well except for the transaction fee of course). Why take an unnecessary risk? Also, you ARE letting the application see your private key for BTC because the BCC and the BTC share the same address. That is why you're moving your BTC in the first place. I was thinking more about for long term use where someone would allow access to BCH but wanted to have BTC in a different place. They would be trusting for BCH but not BTC. I know malware already on the computer was another concern. |

I understood the advice of having btc with electrum before the fork and transferring to another electrum after fork, waiting for a certain number of confirmations, getting a bcc compatilble wallet and using your private keys from the first wallet to do bcc transactions. Yet some people are saying it's risky to do btc transfers after fork? I don't see the risk besides waiting for more confirmations than usual.
I thought if Blockchain.info site was permanently removed, some people could still access those BTC. If some people can still access those BTC, why is Blockchain.info not feasible for the initial wallet?
