And is it true that there's a withdrawal limit of 1000 USD/day with SEPA on Mt.Gox?

@liquid, Thanks, that blockchain site could be helpful!


@charlie, does a big transaction need a bigger transaction fee than a small transaction?

No, size doesn't matter.

You just need to have a fee to increase the change that it gets into a block (every 10 mins) and so gets confirmed quicker. Many people send money with zero fees and it can take hours for the coins to move.

Saying that, in theory miners could prioritise transactions with higher fees, so at very times you may want to go higher, say 0.005. But I've never had a problem with 0.0005.

Blockchain.info is a very good starter site to create a wallet.

Thanks for your reply! That's pretty quick. I don't know anything about transaction fee's. What amount/percentage should I think of?

Personally, I use a 0.0005 BTC fee.

k so i just joimed this so i can post to a user so I gotta send 5 posts first apparantly so here goes:
I am a trader of FX markets for 2 years.
I have BROKEN EVEN trading day in and out for the past 2 years... bitcoins jumped out to me as being like GOLD (ie: scarce
but at the same time uncontrollable like pirating and also gaining major popularity. So what matters now is the major
inflows of money. Remember, its not just buyers and sellers, or more buyers than sellers, for every buyer there is always a seller
on the other end, what matters is the INFLOW of money willing to take market orders at WHATEVER the next seller is willing to sell at.

now to answer the question. you can see your bitcoin being transfered through the blockchain at blockchain.info using your address or using a
transaction id.. usually there needs to be a certain number of reconfirmations.. checkout http://blockchain.info/
Its fun to watch..

take care

Last time I sent to MtGox to sell some, it took 15 mins. But today being the crazy day that it is, who knows. Just make sure you include a reasonable transaction fee.

Hi all,

I have a question: I've never cashed out BTC so I was wondering how long does it take before your Bitcoins appear in your account after you have sent them?
I was wondering because I've just sent 1 BTC to my account on a website to buy some Litecoins. This was about an hour ago and I still don't see them on my balance in my account.

I like to know this for Mt.Gox and especially Bitcoin-24.

Thanks in advance, I hope someone can tell me more about this.
