Most exchanges that we can use in the uk are way over priced. Does anyone take advantage and use arbitrage or is it not worth the hassles registering, verifying, working out costs, doing the transactions, transferring wallet to wallet all for a couple of £.

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

Arbitrage always looks tempting and sounds promising, but the practical aspects that you mention of actually doing it and the potential risk involved put me off. If you are looking for ways of trading bitcoins as a price speculation, rather than buying to hodl or use, then derivatives have leverage, are hassle and tax free on profits but wide spreads.

Why are you recommending an exchange that not only is (maybe) in Australia but which also has a ton scam accusations against it?

I have a friend who is using cryptopay.mePrices are a bit high IMO but it's a good service, working flawlessly since a while now. YOu can also apply for a very handy BTC debit card. AML/KYC is mandatory as far as I remember.

That's lovely. I think I'll choose to trust the experiences of multiple users rather than one sentence from your fine self. If they're not scammy, they're certainly unacceptably slow to respond when there are problems.

Bittylicious is very easy and hassle free and accept faster payments but I think when you first sign up you are limited to a certain amount of bitcoin until a few purchases are made.

The stress of making up new excuses must be taking its toll on Mr. Day's grammar, he was quite eloquent when he was making up stuff explaining the situation three months ago. http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-exchange-igot-challenges-scam-allegations/So, if you are really Rick Day, how about starting a new igot thread and telling people exactly what happened and what is happening now? That is, if you hold out the slightest hope of ever being trusted again. The way Bitcoin 'entrepreneurs' think they can fuck people about that trusted them, REALLY PISSES ME OFF.

Sorry about that. Igot is trying to resolve the problems so hard. No igot is not scam.

The problem is, British banks are reluctant to service bitcoin companies so many exchanges are having to bank elsewhere in the EU. In these cases, you'll have to put up with charges on international transfers like SEPA and often wait 2–5 days for your funds to arrive. you might try this exchange : https://coinfloor.co.uk/https://www.coincorner.com/

Arbitrage is quite risky. It takes time to transfer fiat and bitcoin into different exchanges. The time will cost money.

Arbitrage is quite risky. It takes time to transfer fiat and bitcoin into different exchanges. The time will cost money. it must be done with a bot not manually, and fiat should already be there, when you see that you ran out of fiat you do another transfer the same day, not waiting for it to go to zero

They have large amount of capital and are running bot for arbitrage without time gap due to all of trading funds being ready in the exchanges. For the individual, we cannot profit it at all.

You have to trust the exchanges a lot to have many fiat /bitcoin in there. I only do short term trading in exchanges, so when I finish trading, I will withdraw my money.
