Yes, you got it right. And no other fee to consider for selling your bitcoin. However, the next fee you should consider is for transfer the Euros to your bank account. I think your screenshot is from Kraken right? There the fee is just €0.09,(no matter the amount) which is nothing
7862  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Looking for the best ICO... on: August 31, 2017, 01:46:28 PM
I am not good to recommend you any ICO but I have something else to recommend.
What about stopping to lose your money? It looks you already lost a lot and you are still looking to lose more. And you even ask which ICO can help you to lose more.
There are a lot of iCOs that are just garbage in my opinion. Why not investing in an established coin in which you have faith to see it growing?

You are quick to think Khosrowshahi could add Bitcoin as a payment method in the Uber system. He can be a Bitcoin adopter, he can have already done with Expedia, in no way, there is a single sign that it could be added to Uber (at least in a near future) You can be a fan of this and that it doesn't mean you can mix it with your job. Also as mentioned in the article Khosrowshahi has a very long to-do list at Uber
7865  Economy / Economics / Re: Btc and government, what does the future holds? on: August 30, 2017, 04:25:14 PM
And could a government start to ban Bitcoin? It could monitor/control any service such as an exchange, a web wallet, any thing used as a middleman. But as long you are using Bitcoin with a software wallet, how could the government track you? They can not monitor your computer/smartphone to see what you download and what you do with it... Ok true that they can see what you download (with the help of ISP etc) For example in my country, downloading an illegal movie is forbidden and they do track this, many of citizens receive warnings (after 3 they shut down your internet connection lol) So in the case the government can see you downloaded a Bitcoin client, does it mean you used Bitcoin? Nope. It would need to see the activity you do with your wallet, and to be able to do this it would need to "hijack" your computer.
It could be done with a partnership with Microsoft for example. But for the sake of our privacy, this will lead to a drama. And in case it happens, the majority of  GNU/Linux will refuse
7866  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin vs Taxes on: August 30, 2017, 04:04:40 PM

I pay what I have to pay, but the extra income from the internet (Crypto-Currency) they don't have the right to charge me.

Because you probably just make a few dollars online. But the income earned from the internet is supposed to be reported for your taxs as well.  Sometimes it is done automatically. Do you think freelancers never pay a cent with taxs? Of course, they do. No matter cryptocurrency or not an income needs to be reported and yes your gov. does have a right. Otherwise all the big firms  would pay theirs workers in cryptocurrency so they could save millions dollars yearly
So you except to cheat your country and not to pay the taxs, but your country is supposed to give you great infrastructures, hospitals, etc without you giving a cents? Using the money of others people?
7867  Economy / Speculation / Re: Markets Update: Bitcoin Skyrockets to $4650 Setting New All-Time High on: August 30, 2017, 03:26:57 PM
Do you guys think the Bitcoin rate will continue to increase like it is doing these past weeks? I am not going to complain to see Bitcoin above $4500 lol but in my opinion, we may see an opposite move before November and lot of us will be disappointed. What I mean is look, Bitcoin keeps increasing daily and can't even be stable for a full week, I don't think this is about to be pessimistic but need to come back to a reality
7868  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [LIST] Free EU bank accounts that you can be opened directly online on: August 29, 2017, 06:37:57 PM
This is what they sent to me this morning.
So @Hostfat has been quite lucky to get incoming funds from Kraken.com without a problem. Personally, I am not going to take the risk to use it and a day receive a message to tell me my account is frozen etc.


I am now going to target Sogexia and see...

There is something I want to add: LeuPay is a company from SATABank. And I think everyone is able to register an account online on their website... I remember several months ago someone in this forum who did a transaction with a crypto exchange. (not sure if it was a payment out this account to make a deposit, or an incoming payment from an exchange) And there is a very low change the guy was from Malta (the country where the bank is located)
7869  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bitcoin Debit Card will STOP on: August 29, 2017, 09:03:04 AM
Almost every Bitcoin loaded debit card is provided by WaveCrest.

AFAIK, the only one that is provided by a different company and won't face this limitations is the Golden Card from WageCan[1].

[1] https://wagecan.com/Pricing

Yes, they are the only one providing cards not issued by Mychoice as of now, but 160$ for this card is just an outrageous price. Consider the cards can be in USD only, people have to pay the foreign currency fees. Between this fee and other fees, it takes about 5% to load the card (not considering then ATM fees, BTC rate) And another thing, you need a passport for the verification, something that not everyone has
7870  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Prepaid card paid by Bitcoin? on: August 28, 2017, 10:05:50 PM
Yes, there is a dozen. If you go to the "service discussions" forum you will find plenty of topics about it. Basically you deposit Bitcoin then it is converted to $, €, £ then you order a virtual/plastic card and that it.
Is there any trusted list of such services (including physical cards)? Also how are they regulated? Is there any chance to get this card annonimously (at least from your own government)? It seems a bit unsafe if any issues will happen.
As I was saying, look in the "service section" you will find all that you want to know. All those cards are issued by Wave Crest Ltd which is owned by VISA Intl (they bought it last week).
You need to provide some ID documents once you reach the limit of 250$, before May 2017 the limit was higher. and for some countries (at least mine) you need to be verified before to get the card.
Those cards can not be delivered to all countries so this is something you need to check as well
7871  Local / Débutants / Re: Kraken, Viremement bch effectué par erreur sur adresse btc on: August 28, 2017, 09:51:39 PM
C'est une réponse générique que tu as recu. Parce que cela n arrive pas qu'avec BTC/BCH. Tu peux voir des personnes (comme moi) qui envoient des tokens sur des adresses ETH incompatible, genre les plateformes d echanges. Dans ce cas il est possible de les recupérer mais cela demande beaucoup de temps et surtout de ressouces. A tel point que par exemple sur Bittrex, ils ne lèveront pas le petit doigt si la valeur n'est pas de 5000$ minimum, et ils te feront payer je ne sais plus combien, et c'est pas du 10$

Are there ones for Paypal ? Does is matter which currency you get ? I want to order something and I must us paypal Sad
You sound like you have done this before so I am wondering if you could help.

You can use the cards to make payments but not to withdraw funds from PayPal to the cards. The thing is if you read PayPal policies you will find that for some countries, only adding cards issued in that country is possible. Let say you're Italian, you can only add a card issued by Italy. So it really depends on the country you come from.
7873  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bonpay Plastic/Virtual Bitcoin Card free order on: August 28, 2017, 04:19:37 PM
Since Visa Intl acquired Wave Crest Ltd last week I guess this is the reason.
And BonPay, like others, needs to adjust their service accordingly. I hope they will be operational by September. I subscribed to the mailing list and I am in waiting mode as well.
Pretty sure we will see some others change in a near future, from Visa, nothing is surprising Roll Eyes

7874  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are transaction times so slow? on: August 28, 2017, 03:55:32 PM
But that doesn't change the fact that BCC is not supported by anyone and you can't do shit with it. So no point in recommending someone to witch if it's not accepted. It's as if you would say "Well just use Litecoin" cool man but no one wants to get paid with it.

What makes you think it is not supported by anyone?  It is widely supported and even those reluctant at first are now fully supporting it - just look at Poloniex who quickly got behind it in only a few weeks.  BCH is for real.  It more closely follows Satoshi's original idea of on chain scaling.  SegWit is a wild idea to create PRIVATE off chain service that make profit for AXA and Core.  SegWit re-introduces the middle man and fees!!!  Bitcoin Cash is true peer-to-peer.

If your argument to use Bitcoin cash is the 8Mb, low fees and the short confirmation times.  Then why not switching to another altcoin as well... such as Doge and others Cheesy

7876  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: And now Vietnam to legalize Bitcoin on: August 28, 2017, 03:35:40 PM
This is what I don't understand with governments. There is a lot of cash to grab from Bitcoin, so why not accept it? Especially when a lot of them are claiming they don't have enough money and need to reduce budget for education and others or need to invent some new taxes which are sometimes just funny. Or worst, giving advantages to the big firms so they pay less but the population pay more...and get less...
7877  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: [LIST] Free EU bank accounts that you can be opened directly online on: August 28, 2017, 02:24:20 PM
Well, I am confused I didn't see this. And more as @HostFat tried with Kraken and it worked for him. He was maybe lucky but I don't want to bet and trying my luck I want to be sure as I prefer to be clean and don't have any problem

Another thing about Payoneer.com
5. . Prohibited use of the service
Digital currency is listed in
https://pubs.payoneer.com/files/tc/TermsPayoneerGlobalPaymentService.pdf


Edit: I contacted them via the Chat and asked them directly, this is what they told me

Code:
Me: Hello,

I am interested to use Transferwise but I have a question:

On the FAQ it is written that we can't receive money from a bank account where the transfer won't bear your name
as the account holder (https://transferwise.com/help/article/2200390/creating-a-transfer/incompatible-accounts-and-currencies)

Here the FAQ is saying the opposite:

The great thing about your TransferWise Borderless Account is that you can use it just like a bank account in many
cases; for sending payments to other accounts or receiving payments from your clients or employer using the bank
details attached to your borderless accounts.

Yes, if you're being paid in Euros from a company in Europe, you can receive regular bank transfers into your
Borderless Account.

https://transferwise.com/help/article/2811590/borderless-account/how-is-this-different-than-a-bank-account

https://transferwise.com/help/article/2811625/borderless-account/can-i-receive-wages-into-my-borderless-account


So I am confused about this and would like to know
Thank you



Thanks for getting in touch! Just a moment...
Eliisa: hey!
my name is Eliisa
Me: Hello
Eliisa: Just a moment.
Alright, so it's actually different. The first FAQ link you sent me is about regular transfers. Eg. you just set up a
transfer from EUR to GBP, and the money is not coming from a Borderless acocunt
So basically if you open up a Borderless Account, it's basically like a virtual bank account you can hold with us.
You can open it in 3 currencies (EUR, GBP, USD) and receive local account details for these
and let's say you need someone to pay you from the UK (in GBP) you can just provide them your local UK
account details
and the money will show on your GBP Borderless account, :slightly_smiling_face:
Me: Ok let's say I open a brderless account EURO, Am I able to receive payment in Euros from a company?
Eliisa: yes you are :slightly_smiling_face:
Me: Thank you, another question:
Am I able to receive payment from a company like Kraken.com which is related to Bitcoin?
Eliisa: I'll need to double check that for you. Would it be alright if I send you a follow up e-mail on this?
Me: I will be very happy if you can check about this yes
Eliisa: Alright, not a problem! :slightly_smiling_face:
Me: Thank you so much for your time. Do I need to give you my email, or you can get it from this Chat?
And last question, Transferwise is a UK company or Deutch?
Eliisa: ___________.com <-- is this the e-mail I can reach you on?
TransferWise is a UK company
Me: Yes this is the correct email
Eliisa: super

So, if we want to receive for example a transfer in £ in our Transferwise account in €, we can't unless the account sender bear our name
(then why not receive a transfer in £, to our account in £... it makes more sense)

But there is no problem to receive a payment in € to our Transferwise account in €

Am I getting this correctly? Because she said "The first FAQ link you sent me is about regular transfers" I am not sure what do they call "regular"

:feeling me dumb:

Yes! You just have to send a support ticket and to wait to get a reply explaining why/what/How. Not so difficult.
