Bitcoin and ebased payments

[Stratfordave]

Curious of what bitcoin platform people are must comfortable using (easy / utility). I have used coinbase and the cash app (bitcoins) … but both are constantly altering what kind of funding sources you can use. Ready to throw in the towel on Bitcoin! Ugh

Sponsors! Please consider Venmo (I know some already do)

I’ve never really had a problem with coinbase or coinbase pro… except when trying to add a debit card to account… that took about 5 to 6 days to get fixed and setup them fixed again than setup again!

I second coinbase. Just my opinion but it’s probably one of the more popular one to use.

Coinbase is one of largest but also worst out there for freezing and seizing funds.

 

[woodwalker1889]

I’ve never had a problem but have heard that from a few people who used it for trading. Do the problems more and likely come from it being the most popular?

 

[TG1]

Nope. Mainly from being in the US and they kiss ass to the government. They go way above whats required.

They are based in the u.s. but if you try and add a debit card to your account they send 3 transactions to your debit card one for $1 and two other random transactions… from the u.k.

I was having problems getting account setup because my bank only allows 2 over seas transactions per day

While I can appreciate people’s frustrations with btc, I have to say that it really isn’t that difficult to use regardless of which platform you’re using. I know people are used to using PayPal/Venmo for normal transactions, but using it as a source seems like an express road to being examined by any number of outside agencies. IMO bitcoin is still very anonymous. Not totally, but PayPal and Venmo is like putting your picture and home address on your account, lol. Safety trumps convenience all day everyday. Not just my safety, but everyone’s collective safety is important to me.

My IT recommended coinpayments.net as the best platform to integrate into your shopping cart since you can also accept altcoins. I’m setting this up this week, I’ll let you know how it goes.

I dont trust coinpayments for handling this type of business. Blockonomics or a self hosted solution is the best way to go.

 

[TG1]

Yeah that service isnt good for your type of site bro. They have way too many stipulations. Never trust a service that holds your coins. If your selling tshirts then by all means they are great lol.

 

[CanadianMadeLabs]

Thanks for the heads up, lol. I’ll give Blockonomics a shot then.
