Thats just it. I have this set up and never got an alert. I spoke to the fraud department supervisor and they don’t know why this happened.  
So if anyone buys using a CC make sure it’s in your account. If not call your card

It shows up for fraud as a cash processor so a lot of companies flag it like you just bought a shit load of gift cards which is normally scam worthy.

Coinbase is your best bet for US people but their support and fees suck. That or download Breadwallet and link your bank account.

Figure I would post a follow up for my USD-\>GDAX transfer is if you want to avoid fees since @rugsr asked about it.

Coinbase charges fees to buy bitcoin since they are a merchant and not really built around trading. If you do a USD transfer to them, that is free and puts in in your Coinbase. If you go to GDAX, you can transfer from Coinbase to GDAX. From here, if you market buy, you will get hit with the .25% fee. If you place a limit order and it gets filled, it will be a 0% fee.

If you buy at the right times you beat the coinbase fees anyways.

Can someone explain to me why I can’t pass coinbase DL verification? Is it because my current address is on the back on a sticker they put on in the DMV? I’m stuck with either waiting 4 days for bank transfer or the weekly $400. At least it is added every day lol

True dat! Also unfortunately the Ledger/Trezor/etc. doesn’t accept most coins, only top 5-10 usually.

Membership based trading system. We detect moving markets and take positions. Also trade futures on OKCoin.

Since everyone is in Bitcoin now, here are two crypto sites I use and highly recommended for the gamblers and traders.

BetOnline ( [https://www.betonline.ag/?RAF=IH04V5AR&product=POK](https://www.betonline.ag/?RAF=IH04V5AR&product=POK) ) - Poker, Sportsbook, and Casino. Won a few tournaments and no issues cashing out Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum  
1Broker ( [1Broker - Close Announcement](https://1broker.com/?r=2711) ) - CFD Trading for stocks, forex, and indices. Deposit and withdraw Bitcoin and every trade is based in Bitcoin with high leverage.

I love that I know so many people in cypto now. People used to think I was so weird. If anyone really wants to get into the technicals, I suggest reading Mastering Bitcoin [https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Bitcoin-Programming-Open-Blockchain/dp/1491954388/ref=dp\_ob\_title\_bk](https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Bitcoin-Programming-Open-Blockchain/dp/1491954388/ref=dp_ob_title_bk)

It goes into a lot of the why the currency works for the nerds of the group.

We just do it so people sign up and take it seriously for the account onboarding. You can link your trading API keys so you can copy our trades but we have membership so people know its actually a system and not looking for 24 hour profits. Also send a summary email of our trades and positions and why we have taken then with the fund.

I’m not expert but I got out of Litecoin cause I just see it as a mini Bitcoin. It does everything Bitcoin does except better, but there are other coins not like Bitcoin that do everything Litecoin does better. Say Dash for example. But @boxxa and @choko can weigh in more on this.

I try to make every coin in my portfolio have a different purpose.
