Ref. Coinabse in UK:
Transactions in used to be damn quick. Minutes, even.
A few days ago I popped a bit of fiat over to CB and sure enough it arrived in minutes - but when I went to transfer it to Coinbase Pro as I have done before - it was 'on hold'.
They now put it on hold for five days before 'releasing it'. Just so you know; 'in' is not instant anymore, it seems (at least for me). It's a shame as getting money in fast was a big plus. That's cost me more than a few bucks.
I can't say on withdrawal of cash as I don't cash out on Coinbase, though - I have always used Stamp for that.
Ref: Stamp - they did start to ask a LOT of questions in late '17 about where I the coins I had sold were from. Very intrusive and (at that time) they held a fair sum I wanted out until I answered. I was a little rattled as it was a serious figure. Sorted in the end - but I had to jump through hoops that were far more intrusive than ordinary KYC.
I keep a USD account at a bank in the UK so I don't lose out on the USD - EURO - GBP exchange losses. Then use a Forex broker to get back into GBP when I need to. That said, having USD was useful to buy back at Stamp once we bottomed out.
So far, not too many questions at the bank I have the USD a/c at. I didn't actually say upfront it was for BTC, of course. I just said it was 'USD investment income', which was not a lie.
Hi Kurious I have hear many having either problems or feeling ripped off by coinbase in one way or another. Maybe it is time to go your separate ways with this exchange once and for all. And since it looks like you are using GBP then maybe an exchange which works in the same currency would be a better fit for you. I just received a message from another user here who told me they have been using kraken for awhile now and havent had any issues at all with even doing withdrawals of five figure amounts. So you might want to give them a try since choosing the right exchange now a days is a difficult task to complete and having the proper one which doesnt cause you any grief with your exchange from crypto to fiat or the other way around a challenge in itself. Hope this little tidbit helps you in some way or another. Cheers to you. |

Yup - the ALT/BTC charts are largely the opposite of the BTC/FIAT ones.
I still have too many, I was looking to sell them for BTC to cash out a little (so as not to touch the 'proper stuff' in cold storage)
Seems like I've left it a little late for most of them. Most are zero net cost now - but still, it's an 'ouch'.
It's pretty fucked up at the moment. Not a great time to dump, maybe time to grab a few cheap. However with BTC at 11500 I'm not giving much of a fuck :-) Did I say 115? More like almost 116.... |

Hope this little tidbit helps you in some way or another. Cheers to you. Yes, but most GBP exchanges are not comparable in liquidity and spread to trading in USD... I did/ still do trust Stamp - who are as close as it gets to a major UK exchange as the company is (I think) still registered in the UK. I don't like Coinbase, but to be able to pick up quickly via an instant bank transfer was neat, once they set up a UK site in GBP. Kraken are a big player in the Euro/BTC market, but are based in the USA, which is not so good if you have an issue and are based in Europe, as I mostly am. |

The next halving is a year away, there's no reason to be nervous - unless you are buying a long on margin. |

I actually did pick up some of a decent Alt this morning, I had a few sats left from getting out of LTC just in time a few days back. Then spent it on something else that promptly dropped 5% today. Should have HODL'd it.... Hey ho, got to trade a little - for the adrenaline if nothing else. |

Does anyone besides Tone and Tyler still think we are in a Bear Market?  I have been surprised by the power of the recent surge with so much time before the halvening, still think we are due for some serious pull backs in the near future, but surely no one can deny with a straight face that the Bull is upon us. @JJG, Id like an update on your certainty of the Bull in percent terms kind sir. I remember a while back at a much lower price you stated 51 percent certainty. Hopefully you are in the 90's now |
