Ok that's fine with credit cards, but according to the mirror LLoyds are banning debit card transactions also

https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-new...uying-11971501

The headline says "Credit & Debit" cards, whereas the article only mentions credit cards. So probably just lazy journalism.

But no, I don't think banning people from using their "real" money to purchase is on. Even if it something that has a very high degree of risk.

Just signed up to Uphold and verified account in a matter of minutes. Tried adding funds using the same debit card that was rejected by bank on coinbase and it worked.

Shame they only have limited cryptos available to purchase like many of the other easy access portals. Will have to dilute my main crypto holdings to transfer to other exchanges for moving into alts, once I've dripped enough FIAT into the main cryptos to make it worth spreading some into alts, before moving them all to my own wallets until the market rises again.

Still in the game, all the way down.

BABB purchase complete

"Congratulations,
You have successfully participated in the BABB token sale.

We have received your transfer of XX ETH"

Is it legal for the banks to ban you from buying something with your own money.

If you deposited money in the bank, it's no longer 'your' money.

Looks like mine has gone through as well

Got my BABB too.

Apparently will be released for trading on Feb 22nd.

Tell me, how do we know what exchange it will be released on to?

It says on the website that the BAX will be released to the website, from where you can either withdraw it or leave it in place

EDIT:
Receipt of BAX token
BAX Tokens will be deposited in the buyer’s account at getbabb.com within 15 days of the end of the Initial BAX Token Sale (this period allows BABB to run any additional KYC procedures). Once deposited, buyers may keep their BAX stored on the BABB Platform or, if they wish, use a Withdraw function to send the BAX Tokens to a wallet of their choice.

So BABB is a UK offering yet they only accept ETH and USD.

No one likes GBP these days.

Yep but that doesn't mean you can sell them or trade them. They will have to go on to an exchange for you to do that.

I'm not concerned yet because I want to hold these. But just out of interest I'm sure Scoots will know how ICOs progress to full blown exchange trading.

no idea - will keep it until the summer at least, there's no desire to sell it on this end. Cheap as Stellar was this time last year with less circulation.
