    Three solid buys at the minute - if you can get in. Not very much volume for sale.
    Are there exchanges you can buy any of these three on using FIAT, or is it BTC only ?

        You can buy Ripple with FIAT on Bitstamp. You can even use a credit card.

        In some cases you can buy off other individuals through https://bisq.network

          no chance - when there's headlines on the BBC, then you'll know.

          You'll have some poor bugger being interviewed about how they poured their life savings into bitcoin at $15k cause his friends told him to. Mark my words.

            Tis fiddly. scooter knows more than me but what I did was.

            1. Set up a bitrex account.
            2. Buy some btc on bittylicious using bank transfer (bit of premium) and direct to bitrex btc wallet.
            3. Use bittrex to buy other currencies using my btc.
            4. Transfer remaining btc and few other currencies out into separate wallets (neo, dash, btc hardware wallet)

                Bought some ripple and zencash with fiat on kraken earlier, but the site is a pile of ****, constant clouflare error 520.
                Im gonna see if i can get them off kraken and onto another exchange, anyone know if its possible or can only bitcoin be moved around from exchange to exchange.

                  Bitstamp allows FIAT exchanges with BTC, BCH (bitcoin cash will explode soon enough), ETH, XRP, and LTC

                  Best of all it's based in Europe, so no US nonsense with privacy.

                    Great, going to try that then next, I thought loading Kraken with fiat would be a good idea, cant even use the site, one page needs 20 refreshes to load it. Im going to spend the rest of my fiat on there and then move away as quickly as possible!
