WTB cryptocurrency, DogeCoin, Cardano, Ripple, Monero

great idea, i've been waiting for a couple of exchanges to verify me so i can buy ripple and it has yet to happen.
 
Bump wanted

Especially

Dogecoin DOGE
Cardano ADA
Ripple XRP
Moreno XMR

Thanks, I have enough litecoin at the moment, mined some in 2013.
 
Bump looking to buy LTC, ETH at spot price via paypal or if you are in socal cash at slightly less than spot price. Looking for relatively quick transactions, I'm not looking for anyone that waits a half a day to pick and choose their price once we confirm the price I'll pay the agreed price whether it goes up or down (I've had few misunderstandings where the other party waited for it to go up and wanted me to pay more or they waited half a day, it went down and wanted me to pay the a higher price, within the hour is an acceptable time period as the price fluntuates so much in crypto world)

If we agree on a time stamped that's the price I'll pay.

I do ask that you send first, we can break it up in increments to mitigate risk. My heatware is about 15+ years of 110-0 rating.
 
why don't you sign up on binance and purchase all these cryptos with your BTC?

Because I'm keeping to my positions and adding to 30+ other positions. If I convert them I have to dilute them to get more positions in the other coins. I'm adding them via coinbase but they are having some issues and their fees to add and withdraw are more. And I can trade them during the weekend, I have a 9-5 job so I can trade them during the weekend as much as I like, it's just Hodl M-F
 
None of that make any sense... You wire money to gdax and purchase BTC. Then transfer said btc to binance for FREE > Buy all the crypto you want at the best price because binance is one of the top 5 exchanges in the world.

GDAX has had verification issues for a number of days, coinbase has a weekly limit for me and I'm past that limit. Ignored, your situation is not the same as everyone else.

Then get verified on gemini or kraken or bittrex. You making it sound it is harder to buy bitcoin nowdays when in fact it is the easiest thing to do

-Honestly this is truth! You sound like you are having a user error when the system is designed to do 100% what you want! But good luck if you find some local sellers / someone on the [H], you have a great past trading record!

Haha to say it was an adventure is an understatement.

A few tips don't waste time searching for Bitcoin on CL and try and convert cash for alt coins. Tried to meet 2 sellers, one I've done business with before but they now want a premium on their end converting my cash to their alt coins at 10%. That's a big fat no, 2nd guy was ok with meeting at a police station but the PS was closed, I checked hours and they are closed some holidays and close early on Sat/Sun. Figured I'd have to go home and carry to make a transaction is too much trouble.

Only success with through reddit forum and I posted a big sign near the college saying I'd pay cash for alt coins. I actually paid 98% of the spot price in cash and the price of LTC actually went up $8 from when we agreed on the trade. 20 year old college students have more ethics than older people I've met.

Coinbase in 2013 was slow and it's just as slow now in my experience, I know they/gdax have had issues the last week. Also for those trading don't leave them on the exchanges, I've lost some on the major exchanges and others like btce, cryptsy. Good luck everyone, I enjoy the rush of trading coins but hodl would have been better in the long term.

I did trade GBTC ETF but it's too volatile and the premium is super high but you can trade it on your brokerage and it's instant. Went from 3400 last week, andrew left said short it/plus btc crashed so it went to 1100 friday morning to 2400 this morning.

Edit: also do them in increments to limit your exposure and risk.

What is the incentive for someone to sell you crypto at the spot price or less?

We'd have to take the risk that you'll just invalidate the PayPal transaction. Plus, it's not like it's any more work to just sell the crypto directly for USD on GDAX and transfer money directly to a bank account.

It seems like you should be offering more than the spot price.
 
the incentive probably has to do with limiting easily visible taxable events, or working around high withdrawal / transaction fees, or low withdrawal limits.

Have you sold your Bitcoin or Litecoins on coinbase to get to your bank, then get cash out.

I've been trying to hold more and just mostly adding (cept when I chickened out on a large portion in 2014)but when I did sell (and in 2014 crash it may have been only $500/600 or less a bitcoin). It took over a week maybe 2 weeks just to convert it to deposit to my bank. My bank at the time also thought that coinbase and the amounts triggered some sort of alert that I had to go the bank and explain my actions. At that time I was told not to do it anymore so I had to look for another bank.

Not only that but if you convert your ada or doge or alt to btc or ltc (you also loose a percentage of your coins due to trade fees -> exchange charges you withdrawl fees to coinbase like .001 btc each withdrawl (you can keep them and do 1 big withdrawl but you risk an exchange being seized or outright stealing your coins) -> send to coinbase -> coinbase charges significant fees -> then if comes to your bank in sometimes 14 days -> then the bank asks you where all this money is coming from ( I had to make a new account at a different bank) -> you also have to pay capital gains taxes short term is 10 to 40% longer term is 15%? It also changes some and hard to ledger. My brokerage sends me one tax form and I just input in my tax line. For alt coins trades and taxes, I have to figure gains taxes, minus trade fees, minus withdrawl fees, minus coinbase fees my accountant said I needed to go to a different person.

Try to sell your alt converted to BTC on exchange then sell on coinbase or a BTC ATM after fees and see if you get anywhere near spot price after withdrawl, fees, taxes. I'm holding most now trying to learn from my 2014 mistakes, only reason I wanted it quicker is some of the sub 1 cent coins go up 20x in a month. I'm still learning along the ways and I'd be long retired if I had steadier hands in 2014.

doge less than 1 month was .0002, it hit .001 yesterday, Verge is even crazier.

Going through my brokerage I bought GBTC ETF, I bought as many shares as I wanted, paid 4.95 for the entire trade, sold it and paid 4.95 to sell all my shares. This would take less than a second on a market order, I did a limit order so it executes the second it hits the limit. The taxes will be figured out for me. I can use my brokerage atm card at any atm, I can write checks on my brokerage account. I believe in altcoins but converting to actual cash is harder, longer and way more fees than paypal. People using coinbase gdax are still having issues with their banks like BofA triggering coinbase as fraud.

I also probably have closer to 20+ years of heatware references and been on Anand since the 90s before the server upgrade wiped out all the old users, never a problem trading or ever reversing any transaction.

Many times.

Go through GDAX and there are 0 withdrawal fees. Use maker orders and trading fees are 0%.

Fees to convert from an alt to BTC on Binance are 0.1%. Another 0.1% to go to LTC, or just convert directly to ETH in most coins. LTC withdrawal fee is 0.001 LTC (< $0.30). ETH withdrawal fee is 0.01 (~$7.75).

I have no interest in tax evasion, although others may.
 
Ok good to know, I'm still having problems on gdax. At the moment using coinbase, 9+ days to buy coins, wish it was a joke.
 
Coinbase is indeed taking 5-7 biz days for a transaction and Gemini (if you aren't already verified) is 1-2 weeks behind on verifications. Hard to break into the market right now, seems like the best days are behind us.
 
GDAX is the exchange that backs Coinbase. Your Coinbase account works there without any additional effort.

Of course, that doesn't help you if you're trying to get fiat into the system. If you're trying to break in right now, then buying crypto from someone directly makes plenty of sense.

I've never tried it, but many people use https://localbitcoins.com/ to buy and sell directly.

Almost everything I own is wrapped up in XRB right now, but I would be willing to sell some ETH at a small premium if anyone is looking for a fast way in.

I glad you in putting your insight into this but you've shown markedly bad FS/FT ettiquete

1) I post my WTB coins thread at market spot price (this imo is not a lowball offer or off base. I bought them online in 2013 and the protocol was either spot price or the person selling the coins gave a discount. Spot price is fair, if you have issues with someone's pricing you either PM and not thread crap.

2) You come in trying to peddle and sell your coins at markup in someone else's thread. If you want to sell something start your own thread. I appreciate all new opinions as I need to keep learning but thread crapping on a price you don't like is usually done via PM and selling whatever you are selling for a markup on someone's FS/FT thread is bad ettiquete going back 20+ years. You've been around long enough to know this.
 
Bump now looking to buy only DogeCoin at 92.5% of spot value for paypal non cc. I've made almost 1000% on my doge since Late Nov. early December and 400% since the post and used it to buy other alts so I don't need any cardona Ada, ripple, and not any Tron TRX or Raiblocks XRB (may want more of those in the future but some recent things have me shedding some position there). There's a lot of fees and trouble to convert doge to btc to cash, so for the sake of honesty I'm going to leave my original post up (was offering spot price, now 92.5%, I haven't had trouble buying it at that price on dogemarkets in quantity before the run up, you can find a better % if you wait around especially in the last few days, I have enough of them just looking to add to my position at a small discount for me, go big gamble on my part).

Paying 92.5% spot price of DOGE Dogecoin. Or possibly if you are selling ETH cheap enough I'm going to use it to convert to doge (but the current major doge exchange I use has market paused for ETH/doge so not ideal to wait as the doge ratio is changing.

Also if anyone has any recommendedation on a nano ledger or similar device, that'd be great, been burned many times trading and leaving some on the exchanges.
 
I use https://cointracking.info to keep up with coins I have on different exchanges

Thx, but I'm looking for a hardware wallet. Right now I have to keep like 15-20 different wallets, and I've been download/syncing with network for each wallet, some are 10gb or more of data constantly downloading. I'm more interested in an alternative to keeping them on exchanges. Literally every exchange I've been on used gox, crypsy, bitstamp, cryptotrade, and many more have either been hacked/claimed to be hacked, shutdown or ran off with the monies. I know it's a pain and it costs money to transfer out but I'd highly suggest not keeping it on any exchange.

+1 for a Trezor. I've been burned on exchanges in the past and have since stored on my Trezor and it's been solid and easy to use.

Thanks for the tip, I was going to get a Nano Ledger but think I'll get this. Also FYI guys don't buy these through 3rd parties like ebay. There's a guy on reddit who bought one on ebay and got hacked for a ton of ripples. Can't find the thread but it should be easy to find.

Got no doge takers at 92.5% so I'll pay 95% of spot price of doge as of 1-9-18)
