Sorry if this is the wrong section. I was wondering, is HSBC okay with bitcoin?

In particular, I want to make a wire transfer from HSBC to OKcoin. Will they give me a lot of trouble? Or will it be smooth? Thanks in advance, guys.
Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Who's they? HSBC or OKcoin?

HSBC is like one of the biggest banks in the world. And I'm not in the UK, I'm in Canada. I happen to have money on an HSBC account, I'd rather just directly wire it, but if it's too risky, I might have to go through the trouble of doing a bunch of things to get it somewhere else. Not a lot of options in Canada, at least ones that I'm aware of.

And pretty much all the canadian exchanges are dead.

For individual accounts, yes, HSBC is bitcoin friendly. For
LLC or Corp accounts, no, not ok with bitcoin. If you have
a personal "Premier" account, you can get money to
Chinese exchanges faster with linked account transfer
(instant) and then domestic wire.

Why not wire to bitfinex? Bitfinex is good.

Never heard of any banks having problems sending our monies to the destinations we want them to be sent at...

Never thought OP's here for suggestions... Tongue
Instead, try out Bit-X only, you won't feel any problems with them...
