Topic: How Do You Buy BTC? - page 5. (Read 8971 times)
I use localbitcoins because there is no verification process, and I can buy bitcoin fast and easy with cash.
I try to use localbitcoin when ever possible and try to meet up with other Bitcoiners to keep the money within a local radius. otherwise I use other exchanges.
I buy my bitcoins through coinbase, virwox or localbitcoins.

Isn't the altcoin->bitcoin trading fee about the same as fiat->bitcoin ?
For example, the trading fee on Cryptsy is 0.25%, on bitstamp is 0.2-0.5%, on btc-e is 0.2%.

You could check out localbitcoins to see if anyone in your area is selling.
Does anyone use dwolla anymore on localbitcoins.com?
I'm pretty sure Dwolla has been out of the picture for bitcoin companies/exchanges for quite a while, so my feeling is that it has fallen out of the picture for bitcoin traders as well. http://www.coindesk.com/dwolla-bitcoin-companies-virtual-currency-exchanges/
Thats a shame. I saw an ad on there, but I guess it was a mistake. Checked again, it was gone with some other payment form.
I guess cash deposit is the best route right? cause no fees etc.
I really only do cash/in-person deals on LBC. Stay off the books, pay no fees to nobody.
But yeah, if I were dealing with someone non-local, I would be looking at free online bank transfer / cash teller deposit. Escrow in that case. Does anyone use dwolla anymore on localbitcoins.com?

I use localbitcoin , if you can get to the seller getting discuss you can actually get cheap btc than other site
+1 for localbitcoins.
The price I can get there is usually a bit worse than exchanges, but I won't complain about the simple process.
Reputable sellers tend to charge a premium over market price. But you also have to take into consideration that wiring money to an exchange incurs % and flat fees, and during that time, BTC can also launch. So, there are trade-offs to be made.
Very true, and so I am still happily paying the premium on localbitcoins.

I have used btc-e and they have exellent service.
I have used Coinbase. My understanding is that Circle's new service is/will be similar. Is it live yet? Has anyone tried it? The more competition for exchanges and brokers, the better.
Can't say I've read too much positive things about them. I know many people dislike them because they look (and function) too similar to a bank. But if they allow users to buy BTC and withdraw them just like any other exchange, then I don't see the harm in using them.
they're like a broker. and i think they front run their customers.
I posted that before I found this quote:

Upon withdrawal, bitcoins will be changed back into the local currency and transferred to a bank.
Well that's no good then.
no, that's just for selling/fiat withdrawal. you can send out your coins from coinbase...
Umm... I was talking about Circle, not Coinbase.
