the guy that does bitcoin deposits is probably on lunch break or maybe he went to the bathroom

Do to all the lag problems at the other site. I am considering making a deposit here.

If I use Bitcoin only will I need to upload any documents before I can withdraw? Thanks

yes

Requested max amount on TRUE 6/11 around 4pm
Received in wallet today (less than 24 hour turnaround)

More of a Coinbase question but I am withdrawing from coin base to my bank account and it is saying it takes 6 days. Is that standard?

yes, mine took one time almost 2 hrs

when you withdrawal thru bitcoin is a gamble, depends on the bit stamp at the time the money hit your wallet, in most cases you win money because the btc value goes up every day, just bad luck that you lose.

i withdrawal every week and every time it says 6 days but on most of the cases the money hits my account the next day. last week hit my account in 4 hours that was the fastest, but never more than 3 business days

Great, thank you!

Agreed after further research. I was unaware just how slow transactions were getting as of lately. Highly likely just unlucky

I was able to send the money back to Blockchain.

I'm in Hawaii - and thus Coinbase will not allow me to create an account.

Can someone tell me what my options are to retrieve my funds from Blockchain?

Thanks!

Visa bitpay card.

2k BTC requested 6/15 @9:30am.

This is my first BTC withdrawal. Keeping fingers crossed, will update when i receive.

So Coinbase is completely sucking ass right now, it won't let me add any form of payment. Says "login attempts exceeded please wait 24 hours" everytime, and when I try to upload my ID for paypal it just loads a blank window....wtf.

I sent a support email 5 hours ago and haven't gotten a response. Seems really shady to have a system glitching this hard that is supposedly the #1 wallet...

It's a wallet that's not #1. As an exchange, you could argue that it is.

BTC received 6/15 @7:30pm ET. Sweet!

yeah sorry that's what I meant

its pretty sad, i'm at 7 hours now without a response from CS as well

If you've got an account on another site, you could cash out bitcoin to your wallet, deposit, plus send the $9.95 bitcoin for bitpay card.

I'm not trying to pay $9.95, which is why I'm trying to use BTC in the first place, but thanks

the issue is cardrooms can exploit the volatility of crypto currency by acting as their own exchange and use the random delay of "approving and executing deposit/withdrawal requests" while having adequate bitcoin reserve. you're not quoted up front with a BTC amount....

I don't get it. Can you describe how this would work and why it would be advantageous for a card room to do that instead of just playing the bitcoin market?

It's not much different than shorting or buying options.

In a long-term bear (down) market keep BTC reserves small and increase the frequency of open market transactions to protect against deflation.

In a long-term bull (upward) market keep BTC reserves high and decrease the frequency of open market transactions to benefit from appreciation.

On days when volatility is high, transactions could be temporarily expedited/delayed to arbitrarily choose the "best" rate during that time.

Aren't all of those relying on an ability to predict market movement? My takeaway is that there is no inherent advantage to doing it with player transactions rather than their own funds. Perhaps you can convince me by showing the steps for individual deposits / withdrawals.

2.5k BTC requested (ACR) 6/16 @4pm ET.

Will update when received. Hoping it goes as smooth and fast as my first w/d

I also requested my first w/d from ACR today via BTC, not nearly the amount of exotic08. I asked support how long it should take to get processed and unfortunately was told it can take 72 hours for some reason and that they do not process over the weekend. I went back and forth with support for over 30min trying to figure out why it would take three days to process a BTC transaction and also what does it matter that banks are not open on Saturday and Sundays when dealing with BTCs. Finally I just asked if they could please try and get the w/d processed by the end of business today and was told that they would try and speed up the w/d, but as of now its still processing. I know they only do this hoping that I will lose the money I left on the site and cancel the w/d.
