How comes localbitcoins is banned in Germany?

How is it banned?
The ISP blocks access?

And does that work for them?  Roll Eyes

Looks like an IP block. I can still access it from work on a US system.

I will not advertise how that is working out for them Wink

Hey cool thread Elwar.
How the hell have I never seen this before, this is going straight on my watch list.
Mods can we flag this thread & make it a sticky.

Really helpful man, very informative too because I sometimes feel uneasy thinking about using random sites incase I get scammed.
This is cool though, word of mouth & recommendations are so important for us all as a community.

This isn't an every day site but I used it so I'll give it a review here.

http://www.pexpeppers.com

Living in Germany they think ketchup is spicy. I like some of my food to be spicy. I have Tabasco but that's just a flavoring.

I ordered the Killer Swarm:

https://www.pexpeppers.com/product/pexpeppers-killerswarm/

It does the job. Made with scorpion peppers it has a good kick to it. I added it to some wing sauce and it was quite tasty, I just added a few squirts to about 12 wings to it wasn't too hot. But I tried a plain finger dab when I first got it. At first I didn't feel it but then it kicked in good. Some good burn, but not overwhelming.

This site is pretty awesome. They have service here in my small town in Germany too. They will even deliver beer. I will definitely give it a try this weekend.

Updated with my AnxPro debit card review. Looks like I need to consider other cards.

I applied for the XAPO card a few days ago, I'll report back if/when I receive it and whether or not it works. I read some reviews that sounded chipper but they could be paid for. Right now XAPO appears to be a customer service black hole, so I have my doubts. I sure as hell am not sending any XBT to them until I get a physical debit card from them first.

I found you can apply for the card through the XAPO site as well as through Bitwage.co, I did both but I'm not sure I understand how that process works and if I duplicated the request or not.

Using http://www.bitwage.co I am getting paid 100% in Bitcoin so most of my spending is in Bitcoin. As I find more useful sites I will post the links and write up a quick review. Post here if you have some useful sites for every day Bitcoin spending (not obscure "you can buy knitting needles at this place online" links).

BitWage
If you are working in the US and you get your salary direct deposited you should try this site. They work with payroll companies to convert your paycheck to bitcoins. Most companies allow you to break your paycheck into multiple direct deposit accounts with a percentage in each account. I suggest you try the site and at least do 5-10% of your paycheck converted to bitcoin to see how convenient it is and useful for having bitcoins to spend.

This was the most interesting thing for me, i already knew of most ways to spend my coins but did not know of a way of getting my paycheck in coins. Anymore insight into using bitwage? Which exchange rates do they use?

My guess is that they are buying XBT off exchange somewhere from a wholesaler. The rate I have received is what I would consider reasonable and they charge no fee at all, so I'm completely satisfied in that department.

They are very customer service oriented and great to work with, but it takes time to get an account established.

Bitkoyn.com - Fulfilling your needs
Just saw that you can rent from http://www.9flats.com for something like AirBnB. I haven't used it but it looks promising.


Got that from this link from a guy living just on bitcoins:
http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/2w4dnw/ama_i_have_been_living_almost_exclusively_on_btc/

There was a .ph website for mobile recharge. I can not exactly recall the name. If you get to know about it, that might worth listing.


Hi there,

Thanks for your comment.

We are mobileshop.ph your leading bitcoin, litecoin and dogecoin mobile and dth tv recharge provider.

I've found that a great place to actually get Bitcoin in the first place. It's called Gebbit.com. I have tried the service, and it works excellently. The exchange offers a sleek new interface for all users. I found trading to be super easy! I managed to get a profit trading Bitcoin, because the fees were so low.

I highly recommend the site to everyone!

Best Regards,
Eric

Cool
I have used localbitcoins and Gyft , they really are great!
Haven't tried any other and bitwage seems interesting , i might give it a try in future

Thanks to Elwar I just started using Bitwage.co and I highly recommend it. Great customer service, only took about a day and a phone call (and an email essay) to get setup. They did want an image of my driver's license and passport, but who doesn't. My first transaction came through today and it worked perfectly.

There is also no fee for using Bitwage right now, so it's really the best deal going to get more BTC.



No fee?
Wow! that could turn out the best way to buy btc
Are they international ?

>best way to buy btc
I agree! Now I'm just waiting for Coinapult to implement multisig for Locks and all my troubles are over.

> international
They currently service Europe and the US, but as I understand it they are expanding to other areas as well.



I will wait for the to go international , this could really bring a big change
