Hi nutildah, Just wanted to make sure you contacted me directly via email, so that I can go forward with the transaction. I tried sending you a PM but you do not accept it from newbees, hence posting it here. Sorry if it caused inconvenience but I have to make sure it is you before I do a transaction.

Thanks.

Whoa whoa... I'm not doing a deal with you. Someone is trying to scam you. Don't send anything to anyone using my name.

I was just saved. I was going to transfer $100  Undecided. How do I post this long email conversation I had with a person claiming to be you so that newbees like me look at it and are saved from this scam.

I was also contacted by someone claiming to be TomatoCage.

I sell comics and I recently sold comics in exchange for Visa/Master Debit Cards (about $300). I got codes and I have checked them on the redemption site to see if they are legit and they all have balances in it.

What I didn't realize is everywhere I wanted to buy Bitcoins using Debit cards, I am asked to show myself holding a verification card.

Where's the anonymity in that?

Do you folks know of a service that will allow me to convert my Debit card balances into bitcoin/ETH without an ID or without the need to compromise on my Privacy?

Thanks!

Last I heard shapeshift.com still allows you to purchase a certain amount of BTC w/o having to perform any sort of personal ID verification. Not sure if Binance requires ID for making a purchase with a debit card but you may want to check them out... Most other exchanges do require ID.

Just a point of correction. Localethereum was rebranded to localcryptos.com. They so far support p2p trading of 4 cryptocurrencies that's Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and DASH.
As for the part of Bitcoin fees on the platform. I like the fact that one is able to adjust the fee rates when send a transaction out to an escrow. You will pay low fees, just makes sure your transaction does not have so many inputs.
You can also easily export private keys of addresses that contain your funds


I really appreciate all this knowledge from all you Gurus. I have learnt so much in these past few days. You guys should have your own youtube or blogs if you don't already for a larger audience.

I am going to spend some time researching this and will get back if I have any questions.

Have a great weekend!

Thanks so much. I am definitely going to try it out and post my experience here for others.

Do you also know of a service that let's you buy VCC's from Debit Card? I was on a Privacy subreddit and somebody was discussing that VCCs. I looked up and it looks promising. Your thoughts?

Bitify.com will work with way smaller fee. You can end up being paid in ltc, which has even smaller fees. localeth also might work as a wallet.

Try to use electrum as wallet, but backup your keys.

Good luck with your sales.

I am going to check out Bitify, localeth and electrum. Thanks for your recos.

This is so helpful. Didn't know about OpenBazaar.

I wish there were an upvote button in this forum!

Thanks a lot.
Haha, those words are more than enough!

Well, bitcointalk system is having merit system which is something like upvote but you need to earn merits first to spend it on someone's post so it is lot more valuable than free upvote.

To understand about bitcointalk's merit system : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0

Good to know. No wonder you have it in 3 digits! Thanks.

What is the interval of 2 transaction and also please specify the amount you sent on both transaction. Bitpay always used the normal miner fee at the time you send the transaction. The fee is normal in BTC currency but due to rapid increase to price of BTC. The fee seems so high if you view it in fiat.

In electrum, it charge around 117.2sat/byte for 2 blocks which is around 4$. Maybe you send transaction by the time BTC network was clogged by pending transaction.

I tried it many times during the day and all the times it was showing high transaction fees. I was afraid I'd lose the items and hence went in for the sale.

Bitcoin is great. No doubt about that. But my apprehensions remain. All of this with Bitcoin is as confusing as the banking laws that very few of us understand.
12  Economy / Web Wallets / Re: Why are Bitcoin Transfer Fees so high? Is Privacy a joke? on: December 21, 2020, 05:33:05 PM
56% fees sounds like a lot. How much was it in absolute terms? If you only send 1 or 2 dollars than the fees wouldn't be so high, but if you send 500 USD in bitcoins then it's definitely a lot. Bitcoins are still fairly anonymous but companies need to protect them self's 9f course against criminal activities.

Bitpay isn't the most Bitcoin friendly service.  If you take custody of your BTC with a wallet that allows you to set the fee amount and consolidate your inputs during low transaction periods you will not have such an issue with high fees.

I never realised this was possible. Which wallet service?

Thanks for that Fincen link.

For the first transaction, it was $10 for which they charged 36.28%. Check this

The second comic was for $18 for which they charged over 58%.

Called it Miner fees.

For $28 worth of products, I ended up paying $43.

@boyptc  Do you know of a Network (other than Paxful) where I can maintain Privacy and also be able to sell my digital goods for BTC? It's mostly Gift Cards collected from Review Sites. I am also looking for a private and secure marketplace to sell my Rare Comic collection.

Thanks.

I remember when Bitcoin was gaining movement, one of the reasons given for an alternative like Bitcoin was Privacy and to avoid high fees and monopoly by Banks/Credit Card companies.

Yesterday I had an unusual experience.

My Wallet is with Bitpay and they charged me 38% and 56% fees on two different occasions for buying some rare comics in exchange for Bitcoins. They called it Miners fees. I was stunned as I had never paid a fees that high, ever!

Recently Paxful announced that it is making IDs compulsorily for everyone, which throws Privacy into the drain. Many Wallets now require you to send them verification to be able to deposit and withdraw. Although I did the verification, I am not very happy about the entire process, especially where the entire Crypto ship is heading towards. I know people misuse the n/w and stuff, but why do we need an alternative payment when we are going back to the same reasons which led to Crypto birth.

How do you maintain Privacy amidst all these rules and regulations?

What is happening?
