    Coinbase is pretty expensive. I switched to Gemini.

    A trading exchange is the cheapest way to convert bitcoin to dollars.

    Where you bid to buy and sell on an open market with other end users.

    Kraken is a popular one.

    I don't think that's necessary with Kraken.

    Localbitcoins.com can probably match you with a seller taking those.

    I know almost nothing about them but BitPanda and VirWox are pretty much the only other places that take Skrill for Bitcoin other than locabitcoins that I have seen mentioned.

    With VirVox you buy SecondLife Linden currency for paypal or skrill and then convert that to bitcoin.


    Maybe report back for us if either are worth using?

    All I can tell you is from a google search Borgetto. I would not like to lead you astray but they sound fine to deal with. Been around a few years and are a registered Austrian company.

    3% sounds reasonable to me for fast purchase with skrill.

    it has to do with entering the amount of the "two credits" they send you to verify..... they always send THREE, NOT TWO, and I haven't gotten the amounts you have to re-enter correct yet......

    I'd just join Gemini.com instead.

    Or just order a bitpay.com/card to get it out.

    Or deposit it in a book??

    Where is it now? Sitting in a Coinbase wallet?

    Ar you saying Kraken do not allow you there? or just that you cannot work out how to do it?

    I think you should just join Coinbase until you learn more about bitcoin Italiano. That is the simplest way to buy and sell it.

    Here is some step by step instructions for "How to make a digital currency withdrawal" at Kraken. (which is what you want to do)
