Crypto

Guys I'm having some issues with my coinbase account and its pissing me off. What are you guys using to buy and send bitcoin? One of the issues I'm having is they put a F.... hold on my funs for several days and I can't send until it clears--maybe this is normal?

Can you be a little more specific? Did you just buy? Did you use card or bank account? When was the hold placed (when you bought, when you tried to send)? I haven’t had problems with Coinbase recently but I have in the past

Yes, I purchased it on a debit card and now its telling me I can't send until May 1st. I purchased the Bcoin 3 days ago. The funds already cleared out of my bank account. Its frustrating because I want to get my gear soon.

That is pretty normal. My exchange while I can start trading immediately, it takes about 5 business days or so before my funds can be withdrawn.

Use CashApp to buy it and can transfer to your own wallet or on Coin base buy a less abused crypto. If I buy on coin base I always but XLM and transfer it to my wallet(transfer fees are pennies) then once in my SalePal wallet I swap it for BTC or whatever crypto I'm needing. I did a write up on it in directs subform.

They did just do a change to safepal. Won't let US customers swap coins without KYC(know your client). So gotta use a VPN for it now but everyone really should have one of those anyways. Like 3$ a month.

I think that's unacceptable. By the time the sale goes through you don't have sufficient funds to complete order. Absolute garbage. I like lite coin.

The cash goes into the account, not bitcoin. Once it clears where you can withdraw it, you buy the BTC at that moment with the cash you transferred and you can transfer that BTC immediately.
