What is the bitstamp international wire deposit delay like? Any ideas? Might be delaying the response to the low prices?
I think it is about 5 days on average. Edit: in case you are worried you will miss "cheap" coins, I dont think you have to, because there is still a big possibility that we will see even "cheaper" coins. International as in sending from the US to Slovenia? I send in the morning from the US, money is in my Bitstamp account and verified when I wake up the next day. really ? Interesting, I thought only SEPA is that fast, beside they say 5 days in their website... I am really impressed. I sent a few thousand Euro from the UK to someone in Belgium and it arrived pretty much instantly. I believe it took minutes, not even hours to complete. I think Exchange247 might be a lot faster... Anyway that was the impression I got from Fonzie when he tried it back on page 9xxx

National sepa transfer from and to the same bank takes usually 2+ days in germany. And im talking about volksbank, deutsche bank etc.
Seems weird that international sepa proceeds instantly Fiat rocks
That's true: domestic transfers are still authorized manually in most countries and banks, while SEPA transfers are completely automatic.

Maybe we don't need Bitcoin after all. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Nonsense. Long before Bitcoin was a thing, I dreamed of money with wildly fluctuating buying power. I imagined a world where it took an hour to buy a cup of coffee, an hour to gas up your car, an hour to buy a bag of groceries... Because math.

Wouldn't it be more as more people will buy so demand increases?

My payments go through instantly (zero confirmations required).

He shown me qe code i scanned it , changed the amount a bit so i give some tip ,and click send, and that was it. Ofc they didn't wait for 1-6 confirmations to let me go ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) haha... They ware fine with 0 conf , i guess they only check if there is fee ant that is all. I mean im paying form my phone for my diner , how big possibility there is that i will double spend that ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) .

Let's discuss a subject (confirmation times) that's been discussed a gazillion times on 1000 forums/websites over the last 5 years. Because I'm sure that NotLambchop, in his infinite wisdom, will surely bring up some new information regarding that subject that has never been pondered a thousand times before! ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

They don't wait for confirmations so its fast and also secure for merchants.

Someone must write a phone app for that: will send out a tx to move the coins to another address, with slightly higher priority, just a second before sending out the tx that pays the bill from the emptied account... (Glad to know that Bitcoin has finally abandoned that "trustless" nonsense. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) )
