I don't know any exchange that is quicker than that. mtgox is unable to handle the massive increase in bitcoin users, so don't expect to get your money sooner than 2-3weeks delayed.
Topic: What is the best exchange for Switzerland ? (Read 882 times)
Thanks for your answer, I will give a try to Bitcoin.de so. The only thing that could be a problem is the delay. I imagine that between the order on the platform, the time both party take to execute transfer, on the bitcoin side it should be fast but on bank side it can take 2-3 days or more in case of bank holiday. Then the escrow has to be released on both side... More than one week in total could be possible. It's great when the bitcoin value is stable and when you don't need bitcoin within hours but now that the value of bitcoin varies from 10-20% per days sometimes it could be very frustrating and could cause some lost of money during the delay. Of course when the bitcoin will be stable (no more that 1-2% variation per days or week) it will be the best way to buy and sell them.
Bitcoin.de has I understand connect directly seller and buyer so every transaction need a bank transfer, that is not ideal, even if the idea is quite good for buying and selling
I think this kind of person-to-person transfer is optimal for switzerland because people can use SEPA. You need bitcoin.de only for BTC escrow what to me is an advantage.
mtgox sucks because you may fund your account with SEPA, but for withdrawal their bank does not support SEPA for switzerland so you have high fees for international wire transfer.
Hello,
I'm looking for the best exchange platform for people with only a Swiss bank account. The main problem is deposit and withdrawal fees.
Every exchange outside EU has quite high fee for accepting incoming and outgoing bank transfert (Mt Gox for example, even if I will try to avoid it for many other reasons).
Bitstamp says to accept SEPA transfert for free but in fact SEPA from Switzerland come with 15$ fee ! (Even if Switzerland is a part of SEPA). And I don't know for withdrawal, could be ever more...
Bitcoin-Central was accepting it without fees for incoming transfert and with 1€ fee for withdrawal, but it's no more accepting account from outside EEA and there have been closed for the third or fourth time this month due to security issue or so...

Any better alternative ?
