Bitstamp does deal with Ripple. Perhaps there's a way to get dollars in there using that though I've no idea how.

Cheers for that mate! I was thinking along the same lines. However Bitstamp only retail Ripple.

Looking into it now, have you used them before? Trip to Hauge or Amsterdam Cheesy

Yeah a couple of times, mainly when BTC suddenly starts going parabolic (like oct-nov last year). It is the quickest way to get into BTC from my bank/brokerage account, you get your BTC instantly.

Cheers bro! Do you have links to these third party processors; Misterpay and iDEAL ? My Dutch is not very good!

If you have a Dutch bank account, you can instantly buy BTC up to 10K euro at https://bitonic.nl/ They go by the BTC-e rate with a small service premium, but in case of a rapid rise in BTC prices that shouldn't be a problem.

Thanks for the suggestions thus far!!

Trying to think outside the box now.

How about;

1. Going to Slovenia; Opening an account with Unicredit; Make all subsequent deposits via that account - Don't know if that would actually speed things up?

2. Open an International Account with (Eg. CitiBank); Try and do all BTC trading in EUR; Deposit via SEPA

Any one have up to date experience depositing fiat funds to Kraken, BTC-e or Bitfinex?

Banks suck. Bank transaction (sepa, wire, everything) is slow as hell. That's the way it is Sad

yes, Bitstamp has become much slower unfortunately

Guess that's the premium we pay for using an exchange with solid security/solvency : )

I have found that the best way for me (and rates) is using Virwox.
I use credit card and paypal to fund my account, then change it to SLL and then to BTC.
Only takes about 1 hour max to have the coins.

EDIT: Keep in mind that new accounts on Virwox require 48hours so that you get your coins.
After that you get them fast.
I have even made a payment to Bitmain directly from there.



Interesting thanks bud! I have heard of this methods, although some folks are giving it mixed reviews (owning to the SLL/BTC rate and also Payeer/Credit card transaction fees - will research a bit more though

I used Coinbase.com which took 4 days from my bank account transfer to coins. For someone newly getting into BTC and eager to have my first coins, that felt like forever. Then I used coin.mx and after confirming my bank account, the coins were in my wallet within an hour. They are located in the U.S. and are fully legit, I will vouch for them. Great customer support too. Live chat, and they'll call you to confirm. Hope this helps.

Yes.  You can deposit BTC fairly quickly.  Exchanges usually require 3-6 confirmations.  Fiat takes days to weeks depending on how you are transferring and whatever authority arbitrarily decides that your transaction is ok.

Thought I would turn to my fellow Bitcoiners  Cool

Wire transfers simply take too long to process, been using Bitstamp since October, 2013 they were pretty fast (avg. 2 days) now they consistently take 3-4 days. Sepa is an option, generally 1 day faster than Wire however the associated fees/charges equate to around 3%.

There has to be a better way!

Any suggestions guys?
