I'm about to need to get just a bit of XMR I mined converted to dollars. The monero wallet you'd run on your PC... the GUI was an unstable nightmare. And the command line looks like... an autist created it. So, the deposit from my mining is NOT going to a local wallet, but to a wallet at MyMonero online. (inb4 OMG OMG Nevar use an online wallet OMG! This is just the way it is, until the offline wallet is worth a fuck.) I've got accounts on binance, bittrex, etc. and of course coinbase for bitcoin to dollars (and vice versa). But I need sure-fire steps to get the XMR into an exchange and converted to dollars. I think I've got it, but having never done it I'm nervous.

@Volkmom you might be able to use coingecko

theres also this article

the 2nd seems to be more in depth

Yes, NEO and ARK both look good.

But literally every single exchange has blocked new user registration

Lol

Normies btfo

TBH I just use Coinbase, the rest are too much of a hassle

good scalping on BTC lately tbh

but have noticed that alt-coin surges usually follow BTC surge post correction

jumping back and forth depending on state of BTC can be a good strat. I'm currently in 4 altcoins some safer than others as I hone some programming skills.

I wrote a scalping program in python to interact with the GDAX API for extra quick entry and exits, working through the APIs can not only give access to things like stop-loss protection which may be unavailable on the exchanges (on bittrex and binance for instance,) but an edge on entry/exit priority. GDAX for instance seems to prioritize market orders executed through the API over ones done through the site interface. DM me if interested. It requires IDLE or some python3 interpreter and the installation of some python packages through cmd or terminal, works on mac, linux, or windows.

I was able to double up scalping the BCH release that way.

I have BTC and ETH. Sold all my LTC. Besides that, some Golem and Obsidian.

What offline btc wallet should I use?

You can use a debit or credit card to convert USD to BTC, for BTC to USD I believe you need to connect to a bank account

I see a "Bank Wire" option as well, but have not done that personally.

https://www.weusecoins.com/en/find-the-best-bitcoin-wallet/ from this article, "Electrum" may be your best option for an offline "desktop" wallet

Thank you.

Binance

Yeah there's also some other gold websites.

converting BTC to USD? localbitcoins

I believe Gemini and bitstamp have the option as well

I have not personally used bitstamp, but Gemini is as legitimate as coinbase, it’s FDIC insured as well

@Volkmom BitFlur is another service that allows you to exchange btc for usd into your PayPal account, I believe they will also exchange btc for amazon gift cards. I have not personally used them, but as far as I know they are legit. The fees are supposedly very low as well. JM Bullion and APmex will allow direct purchase of precious metals with btc. I have done that several times myself

@this_that5553 you should still be able to register at Coss, Kucoin, Hitbtc, and Cryptopia. Hitbtc and Coss have shit for volume, cryptopia is a little better, kucoin has most of the alt coins and ICOs that binance offers as well. Coss and Kucoin both offer a sort of “dividend” payout of trading fees that are distributed to holders of “their” tokens.

Is gate.io legit?

not familiar with that exchange

looks like its got pretty low volume

which is fine if you're just looking to acquire, but trading may be a problem if that's what you're looking to do

A friend suggested it. I’m looking around for an exchange to get XRP.

are you registered on any of the main exchanges? binance or bittrex, etc?

I am currently a no-coiner.

gotcha

well hitbtc has xrp

How are the fees?

lower than bittrex..and lower than gate.io from what it looks like
