Is there any way to have the funds available in your wallet on Coinbase instantly? It's a pain in the arse to make a purchase, and then the funds not show up for over a week. Unless, I'm doing something wrong. I'm still waiting for the BTC I bought on 12/6 to show up.

Seems like it makes it more difficult to flip a coin during a rush like what we are seeing with LTC.

You can buy it with a card but fees are higher. It's instant

I don't think you are, that's just how coinbase works. It's not necessarily an "exchange" like poloniex where you're trading/buying/selling on the reg, it's more a place to store.

I bought a small bit of bitcoin on 12/7 and it showed up today.

Thinking about putting more, shite even at $150 I was like nah. I trippled my $100 in a week. Just not sure how much higher it will go.

like the others have said, it just takes awhile for funds to clear through coinbase

if youre going to flip a coin, you need to move to an exchange once your funds are cleared

youre not doing anything wrong. also its a pretty safe assumption that coinbase is experiencing all time high volumes right now

Yeah LTC purchases and sales are suspended right now. Considering it's trading for under $300 on binance right now, I imagine it will come down a decent bit in a few minutes from the $380 it is listed at on Coinbase as I post.

ya considering its typically the first place new money goes, youre paying a premium on coinbase

So on binance it is 288. On coinbase it is 380. This makes no sense. Isn't the value the value. I can't go and buy IBM on different exchanges a different prices.

As we see LTC shoot up out of nowhere, is there another hidden gem that is next?

Is anything like Ripple, IOTA or Monetha worth looking at?

Not sure if they are true cryptos, or following the same path as BTC and LTC

ETA: Can I please be added to the telegram group also. @polarpop

Nah. Maybe incredible short term Rockets like BTC experienced recently, but there is still a lot of growth in there.

Might as well get in the rin
g. There's a good chance you'll be saying the same thing this time next year otherwise.

I’m thinking maybe just put what I can afford to invest into BTC for now.

Seems fairly long term. I’m trying to get more educated on crypto, but am willing to jump in with 2 feet for an amount that won’t really tank me. (Still young)

I haven't posted much in here, but I'm a big advocate on XRP/Ripple and got in early.(It is doing some work today). I think it has some long term value. It won't go up to BitCoin value because of the amount in circulation but I think the technology behind it is legit. I think some money can be made with a long hold.

It is worth looking up and researching the company and what they are doing.
