I asked their support desk to cancel my withdrawal. A few hours later I got my funds back.
I bought bitcoins with it, Mt.Gox won't see me ever again (viva la Bitstamp!)

Hello,

Thank you for the reply. Sorry for the delay and we were able to locate the transaction in question. It appears that our bank is still in the middle of processing the funds,and we will keep you updated once the transactions is processed. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
Let us know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

MtGox.com Team

You bet this causes inconvenience!

SEPA transactions are regulated by EU law and required to not take more than 1 business day.
I got the exact same reply from "James Support".


Please keep this thread updated.

UPDATE: bitstamp just processed my withdrawal, I got a nice summary e-mail where my bank account + the amount of EUR (converted from USD) is mentioned.
Great service! (although I still have to see the money on my bank account of course ..)

Now I hope mt gox will send me my money as well (waiting for 5 days now ...)

Maybe you try OKPay?! There you can also transfer funds between btc-e and mtgox

Thanks, but I already did the withdrawals.

Anyone else who can give feedback on recent withdrawals on Bitstamp & Mt.Gox?

I have a few questions:

1. Is Bitstamp trustworthy? Did anyone withdrawn recently from there (in europe, through SEPA)? How long did it take?
=> EDIT: they finished my SEPA withdrawal (after only a few hours!), it should be underway.

2. I did a withdrawal 4 days ago on mt.gox, in the transaction log it says "confirmed". Does that mean my money is already transferred by them to my bank account? How long does it usually take (SEPA bank wire)?

Thanks!

Hi

n00b here again Smiley
As someone with an European bank account, can I sell my bitcoins for USD's and transfer these USD's to my european bank account?
Or can I only sell my bitcoins on Mt Gox for euro's in order to be able to wire transfer them to my euro bank account?

I prefer to 'play' on the USD market because there is a lot more activity there.

Thanks for the help!

The danger of a brain wallet is using a phrase that has an element of popular to it.
If it's something someone else has, you could end up sharing wallets!

In theory anyway! Smiley

I realize that, but I think it's not that hard to make your pass phrase that personal so no one else would ever enter that same passphrase.
I wonder how the generation of addresses work anyway. Isn't there a chance that the very same public & private key are generated twice?

n00b here. Can anyone tell me this is a correct and secure way of working with a brain wallet?

1. Create a wallet labelled 'Daily use' on blockchain.info
2. Download a Linux live cd, boot into it and navigate to brainwallet.org and download the page.
3. Disconnect from the Internet and open the downloaded brainwallet.org page
4. Enter a very unique & personal passphrase no one else would ever think of. Copy paste the generated public key to a txt file and store it on the hdd of the pc.
5. Reboot to 'normal' operating system. Navigate to blockchain.info and log in wallet.
6. Go to 'Import/Export' and add a 'read only bitcoin address' and enter the public key from the text file (stored in step 4). Label this wallet as 'Savings'.
7. Do some trading and send a few bitcoins on the 'daily use' account. When the amount of BTC's on the 'daily use' account becomes too big, send some bitcoins to the 'Savings' account.
8. When I want to 'cash out' everything from the savings account: generate the private key again on brainwallet.org (offline in a live cd environment?) and import it in blockchain.info wallet. Then send all bitcoins to mt gox and create a sell order for them

Does this sounds like a plan?
Is it no problem to send different amounts of BTC in different transactions over time to the savings account that was generated with the 'brainwallet.org' website?

Thanks for the help!
