      It's a good sign of a trend reversal. Waiting for a moment...

        You can convert you gains to fiat in seconds and you don't have to transfer it anywhere.
        That's no better than coinbase. Sure you can convert your coins to fiat currency, no probs. The issue is when you actually want to spend that fiat, you need to move it to a UK bank, and no one that deals with crypto wants to deal with a UK bank.

          No you don't!

          go to the bitstamp website: Bitstamp debit card

          It works just fine for buying a loaf of bread. Something that caused a lot of concern.

          Everyday purchases from a TV to whatever, no problems. There are fees, but not worse off than a fee paying account. If you're buying a house, move the cash the old fashion way.

                  Feeling pretty smug about unloading 2/3's of me portfolio in dollars. Very smug. Let the coin accumulation games begin.

                  For those of you that did not get out, don't panic. Just ignore the dollar value. It'll recover in a week or two if not days.

                    Seriously, and I mean this with massive respect, you f*&%king genius you!

                    As a naysayer, even then I could not have thought about the big retrace tonight, not one in such a large amount anyway. Like XLM, off 50% from it's high.

                    Well done Scotty!

                      The trick now is knowing when to jump back in. Will give it until the morning. The direction will be quite telling once the Asian markets wake up.
