I have bitcoin but any bitcoin that i got came from site that pay out in bitcoin. Thus i never bought a bitcoin from a site like coinbase or gemini.
Can someone tell me where is the best place to buy bitcoin for someone who has american bank accounts? Also what would be my limits? Could i buy around 3k or 5k or more or limits start out low? Gemini i believe you could send them a bank wire for any amount and then use that to buy btc... is that correct?
Also i assume on coinbase even with high buying limits, do you get your btc instantly or not? So if you buy 5k worth of btc, when do you get the btc? At what rate do you get it at? When you buy it or when they send it? I assume best way would be either send a wire to coinbase or gdax? Also im confused a bit with coinbase. But you could buy with ach transfer? But doing that you dont get btc instantly and have to wait till your ACH shows up to them? Thus best way is send a wire? Any other options? I would want the option buy btc immediately and get it immediately.

None of the big exchanges are going to be good if you want to buy fast, they're going to save you a good bit of money and you're not going to get scammed on them but I ASSURE YOU it will take a good amount of time to get verified and all that jazz on them. So just disregars anyone who brings up the big players.
If you want to buy BTC fast, you're going to need to work with another person. Use any site for this, be it Paxful,LocalBitcoins, or even the exchange section on here. It's going to cost you a bit more in fees and you have to do your own due dilligence, but that's how it has to go if you want things done switftly.
Goodluck!

Because I am a Chinese, I can easily buy cryptocurrency in my country OKEX and huobipro. |

Coinbase is one of the most trusted and widely used platform. It's beginner friendly too. Unless you decide to trade, it is enough to enter in coinbase. But should you decide to trade, i will recommend binance and bittrex.

Localbitcoin will be the next best choice. But the gap in the buy and sell is so far away so you might want to get ready of how low amount of bitcoin they will give you for a lot of money.
They get their profits there. They exclude the profit from the bitcoin growth.
Check it out to make sure, there are also cheap sellers which are not greedy with the fees.

If you verify your account on any of the top exchanges, you could buy with the limit that you have in mind, and the speed of receiving your Bitcoin is as fast as filling your order and clicking on buy, you'd need to have your cash in your balance to do that. when you buy 0.2 for $3500 you'll receive 0.2 no matter what, exact time depends on miners.

I recommend you to use localbitcoins. I have been using their service for a long time now and never faced any issue. If you want to buy bitcoin using fiat, localbitcoins is the best you can get. They are not directly providing any exchange service, instead they are providing a platform for the traders to facilitate their trade with a free escrow service. I can't remember how many times I have used their service, but every single time, my trade went on smoothly without any complaint. Also the rates are very competitive compared to any corporate companies like Zebpay or Coinbase.

You might want to check out coinmama.com, I've used them a few times in a pinch. They were pretty fast and accept Credit Cards. They do have high fee's, but like I said they were fast. You can check out localbitcoins like others have mentioned, but usually their prices are crazy.

Coinbase for the u.s based citizen and if you are outside the U.S you will find a lot of local exchanges that accepting buy/sell of BTCs like bittrex,poloniex,bitfinex are good choices these are the major exchanges right now they are most reputable cryptowebsites.

I buy btc instantly through coinbase.com with my credit card.
I can only seem to get max $1k a week with everything verified. I think that's the max in Canada, but the US should be higher

It depend on the country of residence or work. For Nigeria, LUNO and REMITANO is the best choice. And there are some that if you get gift card, paxful.com is good too.

I second this and I also use it. It's great and works so well and fast. There is a 90minute trading window so it can't take longer then that. It has escrow protection and you can rate sellers and buyers just like on eBay so you can get a good reputation and have people trust you and get more trades. There are also various different traders so there is always someone online. You can even trade for cash. |

You can try cex.io and or at gdox.com
The first one I know and you can buy bitcoin through your bank account or from your VISA card.

The easiest and most reliable way fore me to buy Bitcoin fast is Coinebase. I use them all of the time and I haven't had any issues with them thus far. They're actually the most popular exchange in this manner:
"Coinbase is the world’s most popular way to buy and sell bitcoin, ethereum, and litecoin."
