RE: Looking To Buy Steem Or Steem Dollars Direct (Steem Monsters Market - Adding Rare Monsters)

Why don't you just buy on Bittrex, I use this all the time. I think some people suggested the same in the comments. Where did you get the 10% tax from? Maybe I've been missing something!>!?

steemmonsters are cool. Kind of addictive.

Sort:  

ok cool... yes quite a few have mentioned that... I will try to open a bittrex account tomorrow... that is awesome! And I didn't mean a literal tax, I just mean that the 10% toll that is taken by blocktrades both in and out is like a tax... I didn't know that bittrex could go direct to steemit wallets.

Thanks for the info, I will try to get started with them tomorrow!

I think they charge a 0.1 steem flat transaction fee to withdraw. And it's almost instaneous.

I got it done... Even got a coinbase account opened too... I have to wait the 6 days to transfer the ETH over to bittrex, but I'm now able to transact... Thanks for the help and encouragement!

it looks like you timed it about right.... I am doing some myself now and learned something in this whole process too... glad to get the help from everyone.

@ilovepoorpeople yes tomorrow is a big day... I will know how it all worked out soon!

I'm very impressed that it was as quick for you to get it all set up... you did it all in less than a week... very good turnaround imo!

@ilovepoorpeople yes it was good. I'm a bit surprised it happened so smoothly after I got the understanding of how it worked.

yes me too... I loved it... I 'll help you if you need it.

Good to hear!

I tend to use Kraken to make my initial purchases. (I occasionally use coinbase but they charge much more); then I transfer to btrx then buy btc thn steem.

Its all a bit complex but we get there in the end.

@revisesociology ut ohhh I am using coin base and bittrex... Maybe I will look at karken next... Hell I don't know how everyone keeps up with all these passwords and codes... Since I started stemmit I have like 25 different sets of things I have to remember and write down, and then remember where I wrote them down 😱

Kraken has much lower fees, although you have transfer in from your bank which costs about £10, so I only use them when I can afford to buy more than £500 of crytpo.

I just have a handful of passwords and cycle them, occasionally expiring an old one and making up a new one.

Or you could get a password manager, also 2FA?

where do you get your receiving address of steemit to send it from bittrex to your steemit account? I have the steem now in bittrex, now getting it to steemit is the last step ;)

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks :)

You need to put your steemit public memo key in the 'tag' line and then your steemit user name without the @ in the 'address line' -

It's not exactly an obvious procedure I know. You'll probably have to verify the withdrawal via email too (just clicking a link).
