Sigh... somehow or rather, the recent events are making it hard for Malaysians to obtain bitcoins. First, Liberty Reserve got shut down & it was one of the easiest way to fund Mt.Gox. Forget Dwolla since they're only available in the US.

Then today I just received an email from PayPal saying that they're removing the personal payment function for Malaysian accounts. This spells the end of the days where I can just simply hop onto bitcoin-otc & trade my PPUSD for BTC. Sad

@ninjaboon: You've heard this in our Whatsapp group where I ranted about it. Sad

P.S. And oh, Mt.Gox just released a press statement. Apparently OKPay will stop doing transactions to & from bitcoin exchanges. *facepalm*

Dang, and I was thinking of using PayPal for my monthly BTC purchase. Undecided

personal payment function? how does it works?

hmm, time for LiqPay i guess.

and btw, can add me to the whatsapp group? Tongue

In normal scenario when you buy something online via PayPal, say for $12, the seller will receive maybe around $11 with the remaining $1 going to PayPal as fees. This is more or less the same when it comes to credit card transactions.

However, PayPal also has another function where you can make personal payment to friends with no fees incurred as long as both parties' PayPal account are created in the same country. If I send you $12, you'll receive $12. If you send personal payment to someone out of Malaysia (assuming that your PayPal account is created in Malaysia), then you'll get charged a minor fee but it's still lower than a normal payment to merchant. This is the very feature that PayPal is removing away from Malaysian account. Sad

Anyway, what's LiqPay? I Googled but seems like it's in Russian.

For the Whatsapp group, send a SMS to 016 562 6404. This is the seller's lowyat.net thread: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2799421

Do you know of any source that accepts PayPal as medium of payment? Most of the places that I frequented are pretty cautious when it comes to buying bitcoin via PayPal, which is understandable.

Funny thing is that I've been dealing with Steam in-game stuffs via PayPal all these years & there has never been any incident where someone charged back on personal payment. I guess you can say that bitcoins are much more precious compared to in-game items. Tongue

Any new openings? I might want to buy/sell bitcoins here in Malaysia, for local bank transfer if possible.

Hey guys, so anyone interested to pool-buy a KNCMiner Jupiter once it's out? Tongue

Wait, has someone managed to verify their authenticity so far? As far as I know, they've been accepting reservations up to the thousands without any payment required upfront (*cough* BFL *cough*).

Anyway, let me know if you have a certain plan to get one. Kind of interested here.

Was thinking of moving to Malaysia (or South Asia) if BTC keeps going up like this. Should've tried it years ago, though. I hear that Malaysia is a mainly Muslim country, though; is everything closed on Fridays?

Not everything is closed on Fridays..that applies only to the Middle East (UAE, Saudi, Dubai).
I stay in Kuala Lumpur area. You can still get a beer on Friday lunchtime.

Is MOLPoints something anyone can easily receive? If one wanted to sell bitcoin for it f.ex.?

AFAIK, it's more suited for person-to-merchant transactions,much like UKash is.
