    Is this $30 fee the same for US & non US residents? No fee on 5Dmes end, so this $30 fee is from wallet company, bank, or both? I would be limited to $1,000 week payouts, so paying $30 on $1,000 isn't a viable option to me. Considering there's other totally free options like cash card & MGX, where I can withdraw $4,000 & $2,400 per month respectively. If you're not limited to 1k week like me, then a $30 fee would be well worth it.

    Seriously, forget 5dimes. They are a dying brand. If they won't use bitcoin there are MANY other options. Why deal with their awful CS and all? I use Nitrogen, Bookmaker, among others. I am trying to get Heritage to get back on board with me after a fallout couple years back but we'll see. I won't be back to 5dimes and definitely don't feel bad about it. Never was treated right there.

    I agree. 5dimes management is really stubborn with Bitcoin. As soon as U.S cash players figure out Bitcoin, they will not play at 5dimes. I think 5dimes has the larger number of U.S players, and if they don't jump on Bitcoin(as right now, is the best way to move money) like other traditional books, they will lose cash U.S players.

    They need bitcoin atm cards. It's too much work to sell them online and meet up for cash. It defeats purpose to have bitcoin hooked up to a Usa bank account as well. Turning bitcoin into cash is a big hassle for me. I need a neteller at card type solution. Bitcoin payouts you can anonymously withdrawal at atm anywhere.

    This thread has some useful information for people, Especially from Raiders. The thing that has kept me from this method so far is fear of the coins somehow being stolen online. Raiders, is this a vallid concern at all? Is there any precautions one must take to prevent theft? Does it matter what hardware or software you use?

    One more question. What if, instead of wanting to move it into your bank account or hold it in a wallet, you want to withdraw bitcoin from one book and immediately put it in another book. 1) will any books send bitcoin directly to other books 2) if not, you just withdraw to blockchain and then send from blockchain directly to the other book?

    One more question, do any bitcoin focused books (like Nitrogen) allow you to withdraw in fiat currency (i.e. dollars)? Along those same lines, anyone know of any good traditional books that don't accept sportsbook transfers but will accept bitcoins and still pay you out in dollars?

    thanks

    They will. I am making transactions this way all the time.

    All Bitcoin books will send BTC to any address you want. They do not care to whom it belongs. I use mostly Nitrogen, Jetwin and Cloudbet. The last one has terrible customer service, but Live betting options are not bad.
    In regards to traditional books, I have made several transfers from 5Dimes directly to Jetwin – no problems. However, I must admit, that Jetwin generates new address for each deposit – it is almost unreal for a 3rd party to determine that you send BTC to Jetwin. Maybe that was the reason for smooth transactions.

    Bet a lot of soccer, been using JetWin for about 9 months now, A++ in my book. Lots of markets, transactions are instant and seamless, customer service courteous and messages are responded to promptly. Decent bonus offerings for new signups, reload bonuses if you ask. If they ever offer live betting then 5D's becomes my football only book. Never had any issues with 5D's but there soccer markets are weak. Prematch betting was awesome, but of course they killed that. Twice.

    But I digress; BTC is a no-brainer for US based players. To all the newbies, take a little time to learn it and you'll never look back. Once you've made a few transactions you'll get comfortable.
