At the current price and the market manipulation going on, you should probably be buying and not selling. I hope that is what you're doing.

This is an entirely different question. Anyway, I have bought BTC 70.

But do not delude yourself that you can foresee the short-term future price of bitcoin. If you could, you probably would have better things to do instead of posting here. Smiley

Back to the original topic: still no transaction after 90 minutes.

You understood that I was speculating myself, right? I don't work for Bitstamp.

Like I said, I believe larger withdrawals have to be confirmed manually. Depending on the time of the day you request it, it might take until the next working day for that to happen, although, I never had to wait that long.

If 90 minutes withdrawal time from an exchange is too much hassle for you, I suggest you don't leave your coins on the exchange in the first place. The blockchain is fast, human supervision & security, less so.

Note that large withdrawals (maybe 50, 100 btc) seem to be "manually" confirmed by someone at Bitstamp, but  even that never took longer than an hour or two for me. Smaller withdrawals go out within minutes in my experience.

I tried to withdraw BTC 70 from Bitstamp one hour ago and still see no transaction. But then you said, "an hour or two", so I am still within that range.

But an hour or two is far too long for anything as volatile as bitcoin. Two hours can be expensive. I think I will have to move to another exchange. Bitcoin withdrawals on BTC-e are instantaneous, as far as I know.

No, no network fee paid by users.

Bitstamp seems to bundle several withdrawal requests into one big transaction, to save on fees and not spam the network, I suppose.
If any period of time that no one withdraw Bitcoins, that need to wait a long time to join in with you?

Never happened to me so far. Either they always have enough people withdrawing, or eventually, they send it out alone anyway.

I'm afraid the post above is wrong.

Withdrawal fee is about twice as high as what he wrote.




It's zero.
Don't kidding with him, twice is wrong, you need pay the network fee. ( Bitstamp will pay it for us? )

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for a exchange to BTC / USD daytrading, my shortlist is LakeBTC, Bitfinex, Bitstamp.

I have examined the former two exchanges, but there is a problem with Bitstamp, what's the BTC withdrawal fee?  Huh Anyone could tell me the truth? Thanks Firstly.
