    How are you guys depositing these days with BTC and these outrageous mining fees?

    Trying to deposit using BTC. I use Coinbase - to airbitz or block chain - then to the book. Once the deposit hit my account it was pretty much %60 of the initial buy in. Just ridiculous. Going to have to stop doing bit coin whatsoever.

    What are you guys using to deposit? Has to be a better way

    I just made a deposit at Betcoin.AG using litecoin. It was instant. First time playing there, but I'm going to give a try since the bitcoin fees are insane to mess with Nitrogen or any other bitcoin only book. Set up is sort of confusing so far though.

    Anyone else try Betcoin before?

    Been Using Gemini.com and sending straight to book. So far... 5 times... and they cover the Fees 100%. So you don't pay any Bitcoin Networking Fee.

    I don't give a fuk if they close my acct. Milking it.

    Used Gemini last night to send to book. Confirmed in exactly 15 minutes with 220,000 unconfirmed at the time. I was grouped with others... Gemini paid $230.00 in fees. 100% For free.

    Ive always used coinbase and sent straight to book no need to send to a middle...and litecoin is far better to deposit now cause the fees dirt cheap .37 cents is what it cost me the other day and it was in my book within minutes

    if you use Litecoin through one of the A+ books (Her) though you get charged .0025 bitcoin (around $40) to make the deposit using Litecoin or am I not understanding that properly?

    Nope, ive been using coinbase ever since they 1st started out, 100s of deposits and nothing has ever happend, they just increased my buying and selling limits recently as well, they have no way to track who your sending money to or they dont care enough to worry about if some random person is sending money to a gambling site, plus my deposits are small ive never sent over $100

    Coinbase is the worst exchange ever. They want to know everything about you. You give them business.... buy at high prices from them... they make great commissions... and then they ask for your cok size. J/K

    But... I logged into Coinbase last night... they requested a PHOTO of myself. Not kidding. Pretty soon.. we might have to trust exchanges everywhere but the USA. Piss on these people here.

    They converted it to “chips” so it was a little weird figuring out the conversion for the actual amount in USD i was betting. They show the conversion for what 1 “chip” equals on your account page for each respective currency.

    Yes, I understand that... I've been using Coinbase for 2 years off and on. Nothing really significant... they just requested this last night.

    If they give you $15,000 limits... and the transactions go smoothly.... why must you need more identification? They can go fuk themselves. They are making money off of you... then have your records so they can turn you in to the local authorities? lol Fuk that. Never heard that kind of a business. Sounds insulting.

    Bitstamp is worse. They wanted a dividend agreement from a company I'm an investor in. Morons. They are all trying to be ulta compliant so they don't lose their US dollar banking aLa Bitfinex.
