Does anybody know how many confirmations it takes for a bitcoin deposit into the card to be official and we're able to convert to cash?

#987I have a ? about prepaid debit cards in general. Like just regular ones that only deal with USD, not crypto. I've been following this thread since the beginning and I remember some of you guys referencing using prepaid cards through the years. Can anybody tell me what the best ones are? I'm looking for one(s) that have the highest daily load limits and highest daily atm withdraw limits. I've been looking at them and some are really mickey mouse like less than $1000 atm daily limits and/or low load amounts. Cmon, what am I missing? Where are the good ones with high limits daily at least mid 4 figures?Comment -

net spend green dot and bluebird are the top and trusted ones. Bitpay is also very solid and the cryto one of choice
if you think u will get huge cash withdrawal limits with no oversight you are dreamingComment -

So is it not feasible to be able to load say $5k or $10k on a netspd, greend or bluebird in my hometown then travel to a casino in a different state and pull the money out there so I can gamble? Then reload the money on the card(s) when I'm done? Carrying a large sum of cash like that is asinine. It's a security risk and at risk of being confiscated if you get pulled over by cops or anything. Hence where the cards come into play. Thoughts?Comment -

#990Thanks for the response. Ya I've had a bitpay since a little bit after this thread started but I'm losing interest in crypto honestly.

#991they all have caps you will have to look at each one terms. They also participate in the patriot act so moving big money will set off red flags...Not sure why you would want to load card with 10K then pull out when you get to casino that sounds odd to me. Cops are not going to seize your funds from casino or racetrack unless you have some sort of prior criminal history
How else are you supposed to be able to take out say $5-$10k to gamble with without carrying it in your pocket? Like for example my local bank, I live in a rural area, is really mickey mouse. The atm limit is $400 per 24 hour period. So that does me no good if i have $25k in my checking and want to pull out $5k at a casino in a different state to lay on sports games and play poker. At least with these prepaid cards i can withdraw $3k at wallmart or go into a national bank like ch*se or b*am and tell them I want $5k otc withdraw. You see what I'm saying?
And about the cash seizures there are multiple states where it's a law where cops seize your cash if it's more than like $1500 or $2000. I can't remember all of them but I know KY, TN, OK and others. It's called civil asset forfeiture and it happens to anyone even people with no criminal history. It's a state by state law so it just depends on the state. Your state might not have it but some do.Comment -

Personally I'd just have a large national bank account open that's near the casino if my local is no good and Zelle or Google Pay between accounts when about to withdraw (or just use the national account as my gambling account) then take the money out at the large branch and deposit in their ATM at night on the way home.Comment -

#994How far are you driving? You're still risking getting pulled over between the bank and the casino when you pull money out or put it in. And I can't think of a way for a casino to put money on a card so you have to leave with the cash one way or another. Withdrawing is one thing inside the casino, but they're going to charge you a fortune in fees to do it at the cage.

I've been researching this topic all day. Only other solutions I found were getting a travelers check at my local bank then cashing that at the casino cage.
I guess I'm weird or something but I like to go on gambling tours, where I go to a state and hit up a few different casinos there. I've done NV, MS, MO, IA. Plan on doing more states once the country reopens. It's just a pastime I have. That's why I've been asking these weird ?s about moving money in and out of casinos. So far I've just been rolling around with wads of cash in my wallet but I'm done doing that. Gonna try out some of these other options and ask more ?s to the casino staff and cashiers from now on until I find the best methods. Thanks for the replies.Comment -

#996I'll definitely look into that. That would make things super easy. I'm also wondering now if any of the national brand casinos like caesars, penn, mgm etc. let you wire money between their properties? Like say I'm leaving one caesars casino and going to another casino they own in a different city or state if they could wire my money there so I don't have to drive around with a wad of cash in my pocket.Comment -

Last time Bitpay told us the blackout would be cleared up in "a matter of weeks" but it lasted, what, 8 months or something?
Fingers crossed it all works out, but if anyone needs to transfer a bunch of BTC to cash via ATM's, I wouldn't wait till the last minute.Comment -

#1010Howdy, Papa. Hmm, with payment processors so jumpy about BTC to cash transfers because of that stupid UIGEA law, any big change like that makes me a bit nervous about ATM's.

#1012There's another crypto card comparable to Bitpay that I've found. It uses the same bank as Bitpay and has really similar fees. Instead of being a Georgia based company though, this one is based out of California. I'm thinking about getting it, if nothing else, just as a backup to bitpay should it ever go down or another atm fiasco pops up. It's called Movo. Anybody else looked into it or used it before? Maybe I'm paranoid but I don't think it's a bad idea to have more than one crypto debit card in the wallet should a problem ever arise with bitpay again in the future.Comment -

Since I'm guessing some folks at this website might not report every single dollar they make from sportsbooks and/or crypto on their taxes, the extra step of sending the money into the banking system could risk unwanted attention.Comment -

I'm also gonna tail DontTailMe on the crypto.com card.
I tried one of the European crypto cards last year that was claiming widespread acceptance here, but I must've tried 25 ATM's without success. I forget it's exact name, but it's something like Crystal or Crysteria or something. Take their hype with a grain of salt, not recommended.Comment
