After more reading it looks like coinbase is who frowns upon the whole transfering from gambling site to them. So if I were to withdraw some funds it would go,

Pokersite---->Blockchain----->Coinbase/bitpay/(whatever I choose to use)----->bank----->hookers and blow?

you got it

Coinbase has a full function bitcoin exchange called GDAX. You can sign up for an account there and it links to your Coinbase account. It takes slightly more effort to sell on the exchange, but if you do the fee is only 0.25%.

hey guys I sent from blockchain to bitpay.. on blockchain it says sent but I have not recieved the money in bitpay... Should I be concerned??

hey guys have a question regarding my last 2 bitcoin payouts. So I have a feature setup on blockchain where they send me a text message immediately when a bitcoin payment is received in my blockchain account. (So basically the rate cannot change that much within minutes, and the text message also says how much it is approx in USD)

Ok so a 1300$ requested cashout on bovada end received in blockchain and the text message says ~1280

Same with the last withdraw, was a smaller amount but still % wise same thing.

I actually typed in google xxxx btc to usd and the USD number was more correct, but this rate is not what bitstamp or blockchain was using. Any input on this?

^ google uses coinbase price, blockchain uses bitstamp price

it doesnt matter what blockchain says is the USD price because the balance is only held in btc. when u convert to USD thru another medium is when the price matters

I see what you mean, but still when bovada converts your USD into BTC, the amount of btc they give you should be equal to your USD. Therefore at the moment they send your btc it should equal your cashout amount, not 20$ less..

Maybe it is that they are using coinbase price when they issue your withdraw.

not sure which price index ignition uses for the BTC price, but remember most sites take a fee for FX spread as well. maybe some1 else can chime in, but thats afaik

First time ever using bitcoin, does one recommend coinbase or bitpay?

Hey everyone, I'm interested in other direction. what's typical ETA to get money from bank account to bitcoin to bovada to make a bet?

In addition to my comment above, that I cant edit now, do I have to do anything with blockchain other than "setup" my acct? Meaning like link and verify my phone #, email, and I think that was it tbh. Doesnt seem like alot to set up or verify...

I want to withdrawl to bitpay card from ignotion but I'm worried ...should I be concerned? What is the best way of doing this so I don't get flagged?

Withdraw from Ignition to Blockchain, send from blockchain to Bitpay. Super easy and safe

This seating bug is tilting enough on its own, but its hurting the quality of the games as well. It seems like 1/2 and 2/4 have had wayyy fewer fish the last couple days, which makes sense. Regs keep trying to sit or they start new tables, but fish only try a couple times before they go do something else. Really hoping the issue is resolved soon, but ignition support said there is no ETA on a fix.

Can anyone recommend a safe backup option other than CB where one can instantly purchase BTC with their credit/debit card? I still use CB, but I would like to have a backup plan just in case. I was very disappointed with Kraken, as one must send a bank wire to them in order to make a deposit.

BitPanda, can use credit card & skrill/neteller/paypal as well

BTC wd
req'd 4/6 12pm
rec'd 4/7 7pm

Does anyone know if they take longer just because of the withdraw amount
I have a max BTC req that's been processing since 4/4

i havent been reading all the posts here.. is there issue with check by mail?
i live in the US.. last time i withdraw was many months ago and check was fine..

It just takes a long time to recieve and deposit. I use to have to deal with banks not taking foreign checks. Bitcoin is the way to go. In 1 day you can have your money and it's super to easy to set up. YouTube it.

Hello Everyone.. Can someone walk me through the process on how to make a deposit using bitcoin? I dont have any wallets set up and do not know which ones are the most reliable. This whole process is very confusing to me. Netspend is becoming less and less reliable..

Thank you in advance!

I too am still waiting on one from 4/5

google and a search thru this thread

Hi, I used to play on bovada and made several withdrawals. Just started back on Ignition recently and would like to make a withdrawal. Will I have to re-verify my account? Thanks

Thanks man, I just checked it out. Will they accept customers from the USA? It looks like it is more for people in Europe.
