How to sell bitcoins on an exchange

[Cashew]

You just send them a platform, like Kraken or Huobi and press the sell button. As simple as that !

this is ridiculous,asking for the origin of coins I mean
no,seriously,wtf
bitcoin is supposed to be decentralised and anonymous
what you should do is go to any bitmixer service and just mix your coins
so no further questions asked by overzealous exchanges
have a look in the service discussion section,I would suggest bitmixer as the oldest and the most reliable one

I never had any issues while selling bitcoins on any exchange, I usually prefer yobit and localbitcoins to sell my bitcoins. You can try these sites, you won’t have to provide your KYC details or anything like that. You can transfer your bitcoins on these sites (with the personalized wallet address you receive) and then sell your bitcoins without any problem. Make sure that you are adhering the limits of the exchanges and dealing within prescribed limits otherwise they may ask you to verify your identity.

trading with an individual is indeed risky and i suppose to trade with a company which proven having good service and trusted for a long time
even though you can always negotiate with the price if you trading with an individual but the safety is the most important thing
prefer having little lower amount of money than losing whole bitcoin

it seems you're just choosing the wrong exchanger, the purpose of people using bitcoin is because they want privacy even if bitcoin is not fully anonymous you still have a chance to keep your privacy,only government have the right to ask you such important thing,if the exchangers are trying to violate your privacy then just get away,they're not worth for exchanging for now and in the future

Actually trust me. Most of the real fiat world exchanges like Paypal,Netflix,Skrill all do this. They will suddenly block your account and ask you for ID, and then will ask you for the source of the cash. If you fail to provide a convincing reason, they will freeze your funds and you will be the big loser. I believe even Cryptsy had a case like this in the recent year.

Yes you are right and i think the OP must sell bitcoins to cash money or he can try selling bitcoin on localbitcoin, paxpul or other exchangers that doesn't need verification ID. Because the OP has problem with verification ID and wanna be anonymous.

Yes that is a a fact that there is never an issue while buying or selling bitcoin, I think that is more as easy to buy or sell bitcoin using an exchange, as there are so many exchanges and al most all are trusted, you can sell your bitcoin on the spot at  market rate and can also put your order and when the price of bitcoin reach to that limit it automatically sell in the market.

Selling bitcoins on exchange is not a rocket science but still it takes 5 to 10 trades to learn how the exchange works (in terms of user friendliness, pricing etc) and call, put options works great but to be honest, I use it rarely. I believe in on spot trading and even though most of the times I prefer automation for doing regular tasks,  I love to watch chart movements and thus I manually trade instead of triggered one.

In fact it is not such a difficult job to sell bitcoin but if you have done it before, if you are a brand new in an exchange and visit a exchange it will be really confusing for you in start, as for every new job you need some guidance to start and same in the case of exchange, you need a proper guidance about exchange.

I wonder how I am supposed to sell bitcoins on an exchange. I have been considering several and have gone through the KYC/AML process for three exchanges. The problem is once I sell my coins they might ask me to prove where I got them from. Keep in mind I am not intending to withdraw the FIAT, I just want to sell high and rebuy lower, and withdraw the coins.

The problem with proving the source of my coins is, how the hell do I do it? I bought them on MtGox and they can't ask MtGox for verification. Even if they did, the coins have gone through several addresses over the years. I can't even trace it back to the MtGox purchase since they went through other exchanges (and got mixed).

So what is one supposed to do here?

I think you should be patience to try every address you made. Also, if you beed help just communicate in their site and tell what is you problem. They would solve it immediately.

Absolutely agree, to be honest I am great believer of good design and as a result I cannot tolerate badly designed websites (and even lower fees doesn’t matter when it comes to attracting customers like me).  I have used many exchanges so far but very few of them had good design and rest was pure crap. User friendliness is most important thing because ultimately it affects our each trade in one or another way. You don’t wanna lose a good opportunity by wasting time in how to buy or sell on a particular website.

For me ive never experience a problem in selling bitcoins on an
exchange. I used ccex, and coins.ph where Im selling my
bitcoins always.

[traderethereum]

i have an experience with localbitcoin and not selling bitcoins on an exchange because i don't like with the fee but i am prefer to sell my bitcoin with friends and its because i really trust him and he will help me to accept my bitcoin. and the best thing is he don't make the fee too much for me so i can save the money.

There are so many other exchanges that are reliable and trusted, and whose transaction fee is also reasonable, I think selling bitcoin without an exchange is highly complicated and lot of practical risks involved. I will always recommend you to always use a trusted exchange for your bitcoin selling or buying.

[Barbut]

On Yobit you don't need to prove anything, you deposit your bitcoins and then you can sell them for dollars, rubles, euros or some alt coin maybe.
When you decide to trade, you need to finish that and withdraw the coins. Golden rule never hold your coins  in some exchange wallet longer then its necessary. Good luck my friend, it will be hard to catch when bitcoin is going up or down.

[skyway1]

there is many exchange to sell your bitcoin with easily and i recommend the localbitcoins because i  always buy and sell my by localbitcoins and i feel that localbitcoins is really too much safest exchange and i never face to to any scam with localbitcoins.

Cool down mate, nothing to get so much angry and if won't help newbies/jr members then who would ? huh anyways
Dear Anastasios you can try selling and buying bitcoins at btc-e or any similar exchange, usually most of the sites don't ask verification and if any exchange is asking for such proofs then either they intend to scam you or they want to know something which you should not share, like how you earned them.

And yeah please tell us which exchanges asks verifications so we can open them here at bitcointalk and save others.

Well I think you chose a wrong exchange platform. Those legitimate exchange site such as poloniex, bittrex, c-cex, coinbase, and other's are don't have any issue like that. why not try to other exchanger pal. thanks in advance.

although there are so much good and trusted exchange where you can sell your bitcoins, but to me i personally using Urdubit, that is our local exchange and is realy reliable to trust on them. i using it for a long time and never  experience any problem.

[bravehearth0319]

You can sell bitcoin actually at any exchange site platform.  Every time you get in the trading platform you will they have buy and sell, so if you like to buy bitcoin just deposit it first and then put the price you like sell it in the platform and make a sell wall then wait.
