Selling to a stranger will give you opportunity to negotiate the price in your favour. Go with this option.
Also you will have the opportunity to lose all your Bitcoins and cash, now in person only fraudsters come to a deal. From my personal experience.
Instead of that, sell it to the trusted exchanges where you have more securities and the opportunity to earn more money that do that way. Only if your are lucky enough to sell it to someone else.

Hello,
I want to sell BTC in Las Vegas. I want to get around 2000 Dollar, depents on the x-change how much BTC I have to spent.

I have to opportunities:
- Sell BTC to a stranger found with localbitcoins.com
- Sell BTC on an ATM.

The x-change rate at an ATM is quite poor, but for me it sounds "safe" to sell it to a maschine.

In general I do not have any idea how it will work. I have a german wallet on bitcoin.de and I'm not interessted in transfering it somewhere else then to the buyers wallet due to the high transaction fees.
What would you think how long I have to wait, until the payment is processed? I'm not interesssted in waiting a long time to get the deal done.

Any tips for the deal beside public area, free wifi and counterfeit money?

Thanks a lot!

selling bitcoin to get that money is your choice, if you are in need of money then melt some of the benefits you get from playing bitcoin do not sell it all.

In my point of view I will go to sell my Bitcoin in localbitcoin as you are getting the value for your Bitcoins compared to exchanging it in an atm machine. Localbitcoins is not that bad as you think as I have tried selling my Bitcoin to buyers that has good or high reputation the transaction of course will depend on you on how you will receive it, and usually those transactions take up via bank transfer. These Bitcoin buyers in localbitcoin are also fast to transact as this is what they do for a living. My tip is go for the buyers with high positive ratings and never ever try to go to  buyers that have higher price offer but does not a good rating.

We cannot deny the fact that we want to earn bitcoin because we want to buy something for ourselves, obviously we need cash for it unless the things you want is bitcoin accumulated product. We sell bitcoin into cash to buy something or its crashing which is unlikely to happen. even if i have a btc , i would sell it and not to hold it especially now it is stock at $13000 to $14000.

If the value of bitcoin we expected has been achieved then you can sell you btc, so if ever dropping of value happened again then you won't blame yourself for not making a decision. One of the expert’s advices is to be ready in the future because there is a possibility that the market performance may not be good due to the fact that the market and price of each coin is unpredictable.

Selling your bitcoin for cash is easy if you were selling it to your friends. However, do you really still want to sell your btc because to be honest, if you were just updated and always monitor the market then for sure you will not sell your coins. We cannot judge you about your decisions but to be honest, it seems that everything is worth holding for specially bitcoins because it already gave the peak value and as of now, the dropping of value is just a challenge to btc holders.

Selling to a stranger will give you opportunity to negotiate the price in your favour. Go with this option.
Definitely. When someone is a known person to you and just need to sell or buy something from him or her then surely some reflationary things comes across. You may be dealing with someone your known person than surely you can’t negotiate on prices on that much level. Either you have to agree with the price without any further discussion or he, the seller or buyer, he may accept first.
It is one of the rules of business world that emotions must be kept out of the way of business that is our personal relations are not supposed to affect our professional life and I think if someone encounters problems like this, he must avoid making deals with the familiar people at the first place because such negotiations put the relation at the stake. If we save our relation, we most likely lose our profit.

Selling bitcoin for cash is a simple form of trading, but the complication felt is that it requires a banking link for each and every trade. Maybe this will cause a taxation issue for the trader. In some countries the taxation too is made upon the transaction we make with relation to the bitcoin buying and selling.

For the bitcoin atm machines, I never heard of a taxation process so far. Maybe it's tax free or the machine charges the tax with its usage fee, I've never used it before. If he deals with a local buyer, he wouldn't pay tax actually, it's only $2k as he tells.

No. Do not tell the lie. Bitcoin price is very cheap now. I will hold until it reaches $30k in new year. Bitcoin is always the biggest coin in the world
20k was quite good level to cash out. And i am totally sure,that firstly BTC will reach 7 k, rather than 30k

Why do you want to use Bitcoin for cash. That's the worst option to do as firstly you will have to pay alot of fees for the transaction and on top of that you might even have to wait for some time for it to get confirmed . Also like if you go to see next year then you would have probably spend like the double or triple maybe 10 times the amount past year. Bitcoin should be just used as an investment and not as a currency.

Yes,you can sell your BTC for cash to various traders who want to purchase or invest in Bitcoin.But you have to be very carefull in dealing with and by this you can get good rate.You can also use your BTC to purchase any goods from different websites which accepts BTC. You can also convert it from different exchanges and than withdraw it from your account.These are the ways from which you can get cash from your BTC.If this are not working than go for atm.

You should first try to sell it to a local seller from localbitcoins and then try to benefit from the trade by making the deal face to face. You always have the option to cancel the deal when you are dealing in real world. Get the  cash before you send him the btc. If you don't find the deal to be in your favor then you always have the option to sell it to an ATM. Find out which one gives you more profit and then make the trade.

Go for an ATM, it's much more safe and saves lot of time. Just imagine the whole time you would been looking for a right man for a trade.
Considering the fees that he will end up paying to get the transaction done if he wants to go the P2P way, then it may end up equal to what the ATM may actually end up giving him or even close. For such a transaction, the OP will pay quite a good number for fee which may even take days to get confirmed, but with the ATM, that is a go, you get your cash straight up. No stress!

Face to face transaction in selling Bitcoin is a good way to avoid being scammed however keep in mind that the person you are dealing with is a complete stranger and this stranger may have something else in his mind and its not to exchange his fiat to BTC or vise versa. Don't meet alone, ask someone you know to be with you so if anything bad happens there is someone who can help you out right away.
Face to face is good, however, with the transaction issue, most people may even be skeptical releasing any cash unless they see at least a confirmation, which we both know is hard to quickly see now unless you use a very high fee. It is what it is and from the look of things and depending on how urgent he needs it, his best bet may actually be the ATM.
You have raised a very good issue here. Yeah, you are right .this is the problem with Bitcoin and a few altcoins that the confirmation of a transaction takes some good time and if someone is in urgent need, he cannot definitely keep this as an option. I don't know how long is it really going to take the core to solve this time and high fee issue but I am all positive about it. We will be out of this one day soon.

ATM is the best option for getting the money you wish, and i don't know why are you having a negative approach towards the ATM do you really have some problem or any bad experience with it?  Anyways i wouldn't go for exchanging the bitcoin with the stranger as it is very risky with the Localbitcoins.com and many people are having problems and bad experience with this website. I am using a wallet app name Zebpay which is really awesome with almost higher amount than other websites.

Sell bitcoin for cash is easy, there's a lot of people want it because of the value. You can deal it in a good price you want. But before you sell BTC, think of it first. And be sure that the price is enough on your taste.  Also be careful, person now a days is a trickster, they can fool or deceive you.

In addition before sell your bitcoin into cash make sure that you have remaining balance in your wallet.

For my opinion it has positive and negative side of selling btc on stranger and ATM machine.
Positive side of selling BTC:
1. If you sell on Stranger you can sell it with the price you want.
2. You can sell it double or tripple the price you bought.
3. If you want it to sell on ATM machibe you can check the site of the ATM Machine first before you sell it.
4. If you want it to sell with ATM Machine it is safe to check if it has many user before you sell it.
Negative side of selling BTC:
1. If you sell on strange, some will just play on the price you want to sell it.
2. If you sell it on stranger and you don't know how to sell it wisely it can be stolen to you by the price the strange wants to buy it from you. Means of the stranger can get it with a lower price.
3. If you sell it in the ATM Machine and you don't know the bacground of the ATM Machine it can be fraud.
4. If you sell it in the ATM Machine and you don't know that someone is using it for fraud you will not notice that you don't get the money.
For the summary for me you can sell it to strange to get the price that you want and just be careful and be mindful before selling your BTC to cash.

If you want to sell your bitcoin for cash it is easy because there are lots of exchangers in the market. You can contact any one for selling your bitcoin and they will transfer cash against your bitcoins. ATM machines are also good but as you say that the rate is not good, so you can sell your bitcoin to any exchanger except ATM. Don’t be panic buying bitcoin is difficult. Selling is not a problem at all.

Using ATM is the safest way I think, but you should not sell Bitcoin at this time. The price is too low, just $14k. You should wait until the new year, it will recover to $20k again

this is your choice, if you really need money then you should sell your bitcoin to get cash, and preferably if trading do not use money which is only very useful, because if you are stuck in a high price and you are in need of money then you will feel depressed and confused choose to hold or sell loss.

every decision that you may have for think it positively then if you may know what is the best thing to do for then go for your choice to be there is nothing wrong with that as long as you may see that this may look worth it.

Selling Bitcoin in ATM is better than you get scam. Poor price is better than you loss your bitcoin.

buy a centra card. go to atm. then withdraw your bitcoin to fiat money. or connect to some local trader and sell your bitcoin. But I thought people in your country use coinbase? withdraw to bank is easier




If you want cash, you may exchange the bitcoin to cash and use it.The cash may be a dollar,Euro or any other FIAT.Bitcoin is like a gold, you can cash out any time.If you hold means you can get double or triple of the money.This is one of the reason for bitcoin is popular now a days.

The best thing that you can do is just sell on p2p in localbitcoins, that is probably the best thing that you can do.
You are going to stay in there for a few minutes, just open the trade in localbitcoins once that you are in there and he will give you the cash. It is simple as that..


Sounds to easy for me Cheesy
I hoped it will work like this. I think I will try it in Vegas and pick someone over localbitcoins who has several transactions.

This kind of thing is very easy to do but if you do not understand at all it will certainly be quite difficult. I think you should get certain information first, for example from friends or from sites that teach how to exchange.

There are now a few debit cards that you can have and multi wallets that can help you exchange Bitcoin in real time and purchase products offline and online with a debit card. CRYPTOPAY, TENX and CENTRA all now have debit cards as well as PAYZA, but payza is very expensive when converting Bitcoin and altcoins and they charge hefty fees in all their transactions. I am also looking into alternatives at the moment like Cryptopay.

Selling bitcoins at localbitcoins is not advisable due to high transaction fee,you need to pay transaction fee and the deposit fee if you wanna sell on localbitcoins,if you can find a trader locally then you can sell him directly to the cash but it is risk to sell directly to an online trader you may get scammed.ATM is also a good idea if you can find them at your local you can sell your bitcoin with ease.

Don't meet alone, ask someone you know to be with you so if anything bad happens there is someone who can help you out right away.
Face to face is good, however, with the transaction issue, most people may even be skeptical releasing any cash unless they see at least a confirmation, which we both know is hard to quickly see now unless you use a very high fee. It is what it is and from the look of things and depending on how urgent he needs it, his best bet may actually be the ATM.

Using localbitcoins is best, fast, easy and cool. You have so many buyers and you will be able to choose whom to sell to, with this, you get the best deal and at the standard Bitcoin rate.
But if I will say, I would suggest you hold the BTC a little more till it comes back up, that's if you're not in desperate need of cash.

this is difficult because ATM bitcoin in your country does not give the best rate for your bitcoin but that more secure rather than sold your bitcoin to stranger however i personally will pick the most secure to ensure i will not getting scammed and bitcoin ATM seems good to be considered although the rate are lower but use them seems secure

Hello,
I want to sell BTC in Las Vegas. I want to get around 2000 Dollar, depents on the x-change how much BTC I have to spent.

I have to opportunities:
- Sell BTC to a stranger found with localbitcoins.com
- Sell BTC on an ATM.

The x-change rate at an ATM is quite poor, but for me it sounds "safe" to sell it to a maschine.

In general I do not have any idea how it will work. I have a german wallet on bitcoin.de and I'm not interessted in transfering it somewhere else then to the buyers wallet due to the high transaction fees.
What would you think how long I have to wait, until the payment is processed? I'm not interesssted in waiting a long time to get the deal done.

Any tips for the deal beside public area, free wifi and counterfeit money?

Thanks a lot!
Why use an ATM when you can just make use of an exchange unless you are very comfortable with the exchange rate of the ATM anyway, then you can go ahead. Also you can make use of preev.com if you want to know the present rate conversion. If the transaction fee is the problem, then the decision is in your hands. With the way the market is, you just have to pay a huge fee to get a fast transaction, and if you compare the two, then you can know the choice to make.

Just look for a guy on localbitcoins, that is what i have been doing for a while, everytime that i want to sell some bitcoins, i just sell by p2p on there, it is very fast because you only need to open the trade and go with him, nothing more than this.


Bro if you want to buy the bitcoins using localbitcoins choose the right traders who have cen percent trust and trusted feedback on their profile. Check the value limit you want to buy the btc and wish to buy that.
You have to provide with the bank details to send the payment to him and then you will get the bitcoins for that accordingly in the equals in the cash.

I learn from what were you saying to us here, you said that sounds safe if you sell it in ATM, so i think when you feel safet then make transaction there is first choice. Why would you need any tips if you found the safe way depend on your thought? I think just make transaction on ATM.

Selling to a stranger will give you opportunity to negotiate the price in your favour. Go with this option.
Simple! Most of the localbitcoin guys can even accept to meet you in person if you are skeptical and it is huge cash. I am not sure if $2000 is huge enough though, but who knows? You may find someone ready to cut a deal with you.

At the moment, like you said, transaction is crazy and it is something you just have to bear with so as not to get the transaction stuck for days, otherwise if you feel ATM is better for you, then you can just go ahead.
Just like what you are saying guys transactions are really getting crazy over me I can't really move on with the fee at the moment, I am just closing my eyes whenever I am seeing the transaction fee, the good thing we kept our coins so that it is not much hurt but the bad thing is when we don't have a choice and we need to en cashed it regardless of the cost.

If you want to sell your bitcoins in cash, well you can actually ask some people that you know or an extended party that they know who wants to buy bitcoin in cash. I know someone (not personally though but a friend from Facebook) who has been trading bitcoin since 2009 and invested I think all of his last pay to bitcoin and you could just imagine how much he has now and he is currently selling some of his bitcoins in return of cash so he wouldn’t have to go through banks because as you know some banks are questioning where they got the money from and when you say bitcoin they kind of have this hesitation why you got that huge amount.

Why not accept ATM but first share with us if what site you are talking about that accept ATM cards..
If you feel safe there better to sell your bitcoin and accept ATM since there are people already scam in localbitcoin if you don't follow the escrow rule there are possibility that you will be scam just be ware and follow the rule carefully when dealing to someone in localbitcoin..
About the fee i think better to wait for the network to decrease the fee if you transfer bitcoins right now it will ask for huge fee. so better to wait more weeks or days if the fee lower..
Wait, I thought this guy was talking about withdrawing his Bitcoin in cash with Bitcoin wallet debit card? Or does he want to sell it to a site that is accepting credit cards…? I think you’re wrong. He said he wants to withdraw through an ATM or sell to exchangers on Local Bitcoins site.

If you want to sell bitcoin for cash then I think a good way to do is by using Local Bitcoin but you need to choose a good buyer with lots of good reviews and then you need to try it with a small amount that you can afford to lose. And if everything is okay then you can continue by trading more. If you want to trade 2000$ then I think it's not very risky, you can do 1000$ each time.

First I would like to say if you have a friend that is also into cryptocurrency, ask him how he withdraws his Bitcoins to cash, to know if there’s any trusted exchanger that he sells to, if not, then you might want to check out Local Bitcoins and check for trusted and old exchangers with reputation; ones that has been on the site for a long time. If not, using ATM be best. $2000 is not a small money and you shouldn’t just lose it carelessly to these worthless scammers.

No need search whether he is trusted person or not when you are on board to sell on the trusted source like localbitcoins. You can find almost all the traders will not cheat the buyer and seller at anytime. At recent time there is no complain about the LBC traders. So I think this is right place to buy or sell btc at anytime. If you want check with the forum member. Always have the escrow in your trade to avoid scamming and don't choose the newbie to Jr member, just research about him.

If you are not planing on waiting a couple of weeks until this fee madness comes to an end, than you won't be able to get the most of your bitcoin's potential, whether its at ATM or in localbitcoin the fees are going to be high, so be patient, there is another way, which is through localbitcoi, find a person buying bitcoin hand to hand, and chat with him and explain to him that you are going to send him the bitcoin from wallet to wallet, and you can meet up and finish the transaction, that is if you are in a hurry to sell them.

I thought this is the way it will work?

Make an offer over localbitcoin, meet F2F, transfer bitcoins to his wallet, after he presented the money.
After transaction is processed, grab the money and spend it directly for gambling Cheesy

Op, if you are not in desperate need of fiat money - don't sell your bitcoin now. Wait for the better opportunity - there will be plenty for sure.
If you could just hold your coins for the next 3 years it would be ideal - next halving will be crucial for determining bitcoin price.
I made the same mistake of selling my coins before 2016 and I regret it today...

Do the maths and if it is much cheaper to make the transaction face-to-face go with that option. But take all the necessary security measures. Take a frien with you,use the escrow rules on localbitcoins. Make sure the fiat you receive is not counterfeit which can be really hard if you're not a professional. Best would be to make the trade with a person who has a proven track record.  Wink

The best thing that you can do is just sell on p2p in localbitcoins, that is probably the best thing that you can do.
You are going to stay in there for a few minutes, just open the trade in localbitcoins once that you are in there and he will give you the cash. It is simple as that..


Sounds to easy for me Cheesy
I hoped it will work like this. I think I will try it in Vegas and pick someone over localbitcoins who has several transactions.

I actually do not want a bank transfer, because I'm not a resident of the USA.
Seems to be more complicated, than I thought than sell BTC for some cash :-)

The ATM option is quite expensive. I just checked the rate for BTC selling and it is aroun 8%, means 160 Dollar just for some cash Sad

Please move your thread to the currency exchange section to get more exposure for your deal. Also regarding dealing with public, Be highly cautious while dealing with any stranger. I would personally avoid trading in public as anyone can mug you or some gangster be ready to prey on your BTC. 

If possible try to get an escrow here and go for Bank transfer altogether with some trusted member on the forum. So both the parties can have a safe trade. Also you can get better rates.

Never take the risk of getting scammed by strange people.

Go to a bitcoin ATM in your region and I know there are plenty of them in United States. This would be the best solution to cash them out for you.

With ATM I mean a Bitcoin ATM. A couple are located around Las Vegas for trading, but they usually call for up to 10% transaction fee. I do not know, if this already includes the system fees, but when I want to get 2000 Dollar, I have to pay 200 just for the transactions (sounds more like scam to me)

I woun't be alone, my wife will be with me, but it could take some time until the BTC transfer is validated and I have to wait until I get my Cash.

I looked at "localbitcoins.com" for people with some transactions and wanted to sell to them, but to be honest, I have no clue how to proceed.
I would open my "bitcoin.de" online-wallet and would start a transfer, when he presented the money.
Hopefully the buyer will be more experienced than me :-D

which I know how much cash you want to get at this time it depends on the price movement at the moment. and what I do to sell bitcoin is usually through a local wallet site that exists in my country and the price I can get right now is dependent on price quotations when I make my btc sales. and as you said that is about some things you can do to sell your bitcoin if someone is willing to accept individual bitcoin I think you can do that because I think with you doing a sale that way of course course you will be able to negotiate a price issue that you can agree on.
