Hi!

My username is Cubits.

I'd like to edit/update the information about my company on Bitcoin Wiki (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Cubits) and include the company here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Skrill
I would really appreciate the editor status.

Thanks a lot!

And some more news:

We have added Skrill withdrawals to our checkout options.

You can now sell ‪‎Bitcoin‬ at Cubits and cash out directly to your Skrill Wallet.

Below are the benefits of Skrill withdrawals:
— No ID verification required
— 1% fees (compared to 8 EUR for Swift and 1.30 EUR for SEPA)
— Instant withdrawals (compared to 3-5 business days for Swift and 1-3 business days for SEPA)
— Available all over the world (except the US)

We are expecting to add more payment and withdrawal methods soon.

Dear all,

we have added 7 new locations to our list of supported countries:

1. Brazil
2. Japan
3. Korea
4. Mexico
5. New Zealand
6. Singapore
7. South Africa

Here is our current list of supported countries:

More countries to come!

Dear all,

Please note that due to our banking partner increasing their fee on SEPA bank transfers, we’ve had to reflect that change in our fees on Cubits.

This means that SEPA cash withdrawals will now cost 1.30 EUR.

Thanks for your understanding!

Best regards,
Your Cubits Team

Hi zenitzz,

Sorry, the halving contest is closed now.
We'll be thinking on a new one soon, though. We'll need a way to promote some new features that we are currently working on

Cubits welcomes Canadian users!

All features of the Cubits Wallet are available to you from now on.

Now you can:

• Verify your ID
• Lift your buy/sell limits
• Buy BTC with VISA/MasterCard & Skrill

Yours,
Cubits

There were Casascius Bitcoins, physical coins of brass which contained a private key and a physical address. Since November 2013, they are just souvenirs with no real Bitcoin worth. Now, there are other manufacturers of physical Bitcoins (coins): some even come in silver (Alitin, etc) or gold (Titan, etc). There are plenty of them - just google:)
Such physical Bitcoins, however, serve more as collectibles or gifts. There is no point of using them on the regular basis (due to a number of reasons stated above).

There is also a ton of paper wallets (treat them as notes). The only point in them is to use in a brick-and-mortar store that accepts Bitcoins when your smartphone's battery's gone dead. Otherwise, there are too many shortcomings of paper Bitcoins.. There were stories of people accidentally washing them together with jeans, for example.

...Meanwhile, we are expanding our list of options to purchase Bitcoin.

Last week, we have added Skrill to our Cubits platform.


So, here is the revised list of payment methods you can use to buy Bitcoin:

Method	Fee	Transaction time
Sofort (Sofortüberweisung)	1.8%	Up to 2 days
Online Bank Transfer	0.8%	Up to 2 days
OK Pay	1.5%	Instant
VISA/MasterCard	3.5%	Instant
DotPay (only in Poland)	1.8%	Instant
SEPA	€0.85	1-3 business days
International Bank Transfer (SWIFT)	€16	3-5 business days
Skrill	3.9% + €0.29	Instant

By choosing Skrill, you can either make a payment using your Skrill wallet or choose any of the additional payment options enabled by Skrill. These options will depend on the country.

Please feel free to ask questions, leave comments and your feedback.

Yours,
Cubits

Thanks, but it seemed like any announcement from Cubits might fit in the OT.
Yes, it's a contest announcement, not a contest itself.

Hi everyone!

On the occasion of the upcoming Bitcoin block reward halving, we are launching a contest.

Guess the time when the halving occurs and get a reward:
1st place — 0.5 BTC
2nd place — 0.3 BTC
3rd place — 0.2 BTC

We accept predictions on our Facebook page (/CubitsBTC or simply find the link in the profile). So, to participate, please
- LIKE the Cubits Facebook page,
- SHARE the post with the contest rules, and
- leave a COMMENT with your prediction to that post.

It sounds really easy, so we’ll challenge you to guess the exact time (day, hour, minute, second).

Please submit your estimations in UTC/GMT 0 time, format: DD/MM/YY HH:MM:SS.
Those 3 who get the closest to the exact time of the halving will grab the price.

We’ll accept your submissions during April 2016.
Start: today, April 1st;
end: 30th April at 23:59:59 UTC.

Please note that ONE person can make only ONE prediction.

Bitcoin block reward halving time is the time when the 420,000th block is solved.
We’ll check with the data on Blockchain.info.

If more than one person make winning guesses, then the prize of 1 BTC will be split proportionally between the first three winners.

Good luck!

P.S. Feel free to ask any questions!
