Could I just use a wallet on my laptop like Electrum? No need to buy any hardware then? Is that safer than leaving on an exchange? Hardware wallet are supported by electrum. If you are using windows then I would not be very confortable using a software wallet without a hardware wallet. If you have and android phone that is not rooted it would probably be a better choice. Even an old dedicated phone with electrum would be safer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tail is an amnesic usb bootable Linux system. Your problem with the address is that you are probably using a bech32 format wallet (address starting with "bc1"). You need a wallet that use segwit (start with "3") or legacy (start with "1"). You need to create a new wallet and pay attention to the options. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My stupid multi thousand percent ROI is hurting me right now. Shoulda longed gold, id have almost a whole 10% more money than i had back then!! seriously, even the alts down 90%.. it just takes a good week, week and a half to turn it around in USD at least. Next month, next year, in 2 years.. doesnt it matter? it's still thousand more %'s of ROI for doing jack <deleted>.

Cost minimum transfer fee 0.0001 BTC about 30THB. You can enable manual fees when sending from electrum. If I'm not in a hurry I pay around 10 satoshis per byte or $0.03 otherwise $0.20+ is more reliably fast. Often there isn't much difference in delay but in rare occasion it can take over 24h. https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/ Also using address using segwit and starting with "3" or "bc1" reduce the fees. Not all site or wallet support segwit address with bech32 format (bc1) so this is why the address starting with "3" are used. The address starting with "1" are the oldest format.

This type of exchange doesn't need to connect to any banks the way centralized exchanges do. The counterparty buying your BTC would simply transfer the funds to your Thai bank account from theirs, using their banking app or the bank's cash deposit machine or a bank branch. Once you see the THB in your bank account, you release your escrowed BTC in the app. Watch these two tutorials: If you still don't understand after that, there's a lot more detail on their site, in their Youtube channel, and their forum. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard about these types of new exchanges but didn't really see the advantages. Now I am starting to get it as a USA person, the crazy USA laws on everything concerning money makes it hard to play around with a few coins. Thanks again !!! Welcome! Be careful: if Bitcoin is "being your own bank", Bisq is being your own exchange. So, the process is much different than nanny exchanges. With respect to your situation selling BTC for fiat, here's what I learned so far: You can trade in any fiat currency where you have an acceptable payment method, without connecting that payment method to Bisq - you just list it in the offer. However, takes patience in small, new Bisq markets, because liquidity is low. It's not for high frequency trading or very small amounts. Have to leave Bisq always online for best results, unless you are in Euro or USD, where there's always liquidity for the takers. It cost much more to be the taker than the maker. You can lower your trading fees by using its internal BSQ token, the way you can on Binance and such. Don't buy BSQ though, until you are sure you will continue to trade on Bisq. Just use BTC for fees at first. You pay the mining and trading fees up front when you set the offer. You can change it, but if you try to cancel the offer completely, you will forfeit the mining and the trading fee. For the taker, that's naturally not an issue. I think you can claim for trading fee refund with the Bisq DAO, but I never tried. Few times I did cancel an offer, I just write it off as a small donation to Bisq development. You are not really limited by the low initial trading limit or the maxumum limits, because you can put up as many offers as you wish. That costs more in fees, but also spreads the risk among several offers. Selling BTC for Cash deposit is safer than National/Same bank transfer. (For buying BTC, doesn't matter, because you know that you are not a scammer.) Scammers are naturally lazy, stealthy people, who don't want to appear on cash deposit machine cameras or at a bank branch. (With online banking app transfer, they can later say they transferred the money to you in error, and try to have the bank reverse the payment. Hard to do after showing up at a CDM or a branch...) If they try to force you to change payment to online banking by pushing the trade into arbitration, just request damages for a broken deal from the arbitrator during the dispute, in the amount of mining and trading fees. You can communicate with the counterparty - by email or in the app - once the trade begins. If the buyer wants to use cash deposit machine, most cash deposit sellers will allow the buyer to round down to the smallest fiat note the deposit machine will accept. Everyone wants the best deal, with a small spread. So, for best results, if you set offers, set the kind of offers you yourself would be willing to take, if you were the counterparty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
how241 Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Thanks again, twig !!! I will definitely carefully read through what you have posted. I see that Binance also has a DEX exchange. I have never used it or even really looked into it. I have traded on Binance before with no problems but it is only crypto-to-crypto. Would you recommend using the Binance DEX, as they are a big company ? I don't know if the Binance DEX can sell/trade for cash/money. Being that bitcoin and others are still down and I believe that they will go higher soon I am not really looking to sell right now but I am looking into cash-out ways when the time is right.

Thanks for all of your help. I think it's debatable whether Binance DEX is really a DEX. Their position is that being "decentralized" is a range, kind of like being pregnant can be a matter of degree - from a little bit pregnant to really pregnant, right?... ???? I personally would not use Binance DEX, because I think decentralization is binary - full or not at all. If Binance retains control of its DEX, the powers that should not be will always be able to create the kind of censorship problems for their users that you have experienced through KYC/AML... If Binance plans to relinquish control of its DEX, and have it disrupt itself out of business, why would a sane, responsible corporate leadership do that? I think the answer is that Binance's DEX is a marketing gimmick, the way unrelated companies were putting the word "Blockchain" in their names over the past few years... You are right that it's not a good time to sell Bitcoin and such, if one has a long-term view of it. Clearly, we're very early in the crypto era. The evidence is that the only exchange - Bisq - that can be called decentralized today for - Bitcoin - the most decentralized cryptocurrency, has barely any users in Thailand - the 20th most populous territory in the world! So, seems like a good time to experiment with small amounts on such free-market, decentralized exchanges, rather than keep risking someone else interfering through KYC/AML with your funds or ability to trade on centralized, corporate exchanges, no matter how "decentralized" they pretend to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks !!! You make a lot of good points. I was kind of thinking along the same lines as Binance definitely controls everything. They are way too big not to want to have control over what happens in their exchanges. They want to be totally compliant with all the KYC/AML rules and regs which is probably not such a bad thing BUT the USA uses this info to try and tax you on every trade or transaction. I don't believe that bitcoin is a large player in money laundering. Cash has always been the preferred money laundering device and major big banks are totally dirty as they move millions/billions around .
