Bitpay card

[Optional]

so if i want to load $50 on my bitpay card,how much do you think it would cost me?how much would i need to have?around 60$???

Right now $60 would be more than enough. The optimum miners fee is just under $5 right now and the conversion rate BitPay uses is fair so you should not see much more loss than that... well depending on who you are quoting as saying the coin is worth $60 of course. But assuming it's coindesk or a proper market wide rate like that, I'd guess you'll lose $6 max.

and i now have mycellium and electrum

[Roscoe_Word]

Can Mycellium be a PC desktop wallet or just a cell phone wallet?

Mycellium is phone...and Electrum is desktop

***and FWIW just loaded my BitPay Card using Electrum .....and it was 15 mins start to finish(super easy and decent fee)

[Pinoy-T-X]

So Electrum has to be downloaded in a PC? It won’t work on an iPad?

Thanks Dempster. Tried to give you a few points, but wouldn't work.

You can use the same seed with your Electrum desktop wallet and your Mycellium phone app wallet and basically use them as alternate interfaces to the same bitcoin wallet.


An IOS version Electrum is supposed to be coming Pinoy but no idea when.

A fiend of mine just used Mycellium to transfer funds and was charged $40 for a $200 transfer. Yikes.

Besides Electrum and Mycelium, what other wallets do you use?

I use a few but for bit pay myceilum ...Just scroll through the miners fee's on bottom they offer and go to low priority just dint us lowest on use like 20 SAT ...Never use the one they recommend esp now with congestion gone

Set too high a fee?

Sounds like the Mycellium wallet deals with fees badly?

Thats a trap for new users

Its pretty simple though as they have that scrolling on bottom with low priority to high and everything in between....you would think most guys using btc have a little tech knowledge LOL

Everyone has a day one using it

But why doesnt mycellium default to optimal is good question. Unless he moved it I guess. 40 bucks today is throwing money in the bin.

I just looked my android App has it at Normal 146 SAT (3.30$)that the default set and if u scroll left Lowest Low is 3 SAT (7 Cents) an scroll all way right to Priority and the highest is 249 SAT (5.60$) thats the range

Can't imagine how he manged 40 bucks then. Doesnt sound possible without going right into settings and changing numbers sort of thing.

He wrote a review at the apple app. There are a few one star reviews too, mostly guys complaining about losing their money or paying high fees. The average review is 2.8 out of 5 stars.
i want to copy and paste the reviews here, but I don’t know how since it’s in the apple app.

Mycelium is one of top and most secure wallets...losing money must be a user error or some sort of scam...high fees is not mycelium problem they don’t have anything to do with miner or network fees

Thank for the updated info guys. I sync'd up my blockchain wallet in Electrum and the history all matches up. So I'm going to request a payout and go from 5d to the Electrum wallet and then to Bitpay card without any issue if I'm understanding correctly? Again thanks to all.

I noticed here https://bitpay.com/docs/wallets that Airbitz is an approved true wallet and what I've always used as opposed to Blockchain. Can I go Book----Airbitz-----Bitpay or has anyone tried just that?
