Is this a one-time restriction or every time? I've used dwolla to mtgox before and have several transfers in and out over six months.

bitinstant is making it much easier to get coins now.  If you're still looking for a way, head over to their site.
+1 for the win!!11!
Now it is as easy as buying a beer.


Yeah it's really convenient, but it comes at a cost depending on which options you use. If you go through moneygram (CVS, etc..) they will also charge you a $3.95 fee, on top of the 3.99% Bitinstant takes, and the $1 that coinvault takes.  That $3.95 fee sucks.

Overall I've been paying about $10 in fees for each transaction. (Under $200)

In light of the new user agreement and the relationship between Mt. Gox and dwolla, it just seems like Dwolla is no longer worth it. Submitting a DL and Proof of Residency? Come ON.

Guys, try the new site www.coineta.com that I am developing which will automatically process person to person PayPal to Bitcoin exchange.
I myself placed there two orders to buy bitcoins at the current MT Gox rate for US and Canadian dollars. The site is fully functional if you are located in USA or Canada. I just want to see if there are any interest in such service before adding peer to peer exchange for other countries and for more payment processors outside of PayPal like Dwolla or Paxum.
I added a safety measure against charge backs. It will automatically match orders placed by users with similar rank. The rank is just number of successfully processed orders. For example if you made 10 orders then your order will be matched with users with more than 5 and up to 20 successful orders. Brand new users can only trade with each other. Since orders are matched randomly and automatically it would be impossible to artificially raise the reputation.
I will also add automatic blocking of users who ever did a PayPal charge back

sorry phyre I thought I had 20 coins but I don't I forgot I made a big withdrawal a couple days ago.  It will be 1-2 days before I mine enough.

Once you are no longer a noob post in the currency exchange forum ("WTT $110 Dwolla for 20 BTC") I am sure somebody will do it.  Obviously w/ 8 posts you are going to have to tx first so make sure your counterparty has some reputation.

 Sad Need MTGOX, have DWOLLA.

EDIT: Answered my own question.

I'm stuck in this same situation sadly. Oh well I guess I will just wait 27 more days Sad

There are people who have Mt. Gox USD and are willing to trade a MTGUSD redeemable code for your Dwolla USDs, person-to-person:

now thats funny, waiting 30 days, 5 more months and they end up like paypal

very easy for these "exchangers", when they need some money, they just start pulling AML stunts

Perhaps you are misunderstanding the specifics on this 30 days restriction.

The restriction is that a Dwolla customer who just recently added funds from a bank or hasn't yet added funds from a bank at all yet cannot send Dwolla funds TO the exchanges until 30 days after that first transfer from a linked bank account occurs.  So the funds aren't being "frozen" by Dwolla, they just can't be transferred to certain parties until an initial probationary period has expired.

There are no restrictions on a Dwolla customer from sending those funds to another Dwolla customer, nor is there a restriction on withdrawing those funds.

So to suggest that the exchanges are holding onto the Dwolla funds due to Dwolla's new 30 day restriction is misleading.

If any exchange is not able to payout Dwolla funds it is for other reasons than Dwolla's 30-day restriction.

I am new to bitcoin as well... I understand the reluctance to use Paypal or credit card companies... However, this is one of the easiest ways to make purchases online...  It isn't in their interest to facilitate bitcoin whatsoever... But I have to say, if I wasn't so interested in this, I would have given up trying to get some coins a looooong time ago.

The difficulty will definitely hurt adoption.  I'm sure it already has.

Has Dwolla actually officially announced this policy somewhere or articulated the details of exactly to whom it applies?

This issue (30-day restriction, SSN verification, & Dwolla hub enabled) can be verified by trying to send a payment to a bitcoin exchange.  Dwolla will display the following:



The restriction is universal -- it applies to every account.  But it is a restriction that occurs only when trying to send USDs to Bitcoin exchanges (or others where Dwolla has found risky with regards to ACH fraud or other reversals occurring.)
