Wow I literally just did moneygram 1hr ago and it just hit SR wallet!! Another question maybe I missed it while studying up , there is a $20 difference. Is there some fee I missed or conversion ???
I did 247.95 with money gram and SR wallet says 228.29 .

fees, definitely fees.
also, holy shit thats fast
-
well fuck! how did I miss that?? glad I put in extra to begin with

general rule of thumb is always give yourself wiggle room, in case of fluctuations or if you're too lazy to calculate.

fees and fluctuations, definitely. always transfer more than you need. personally, i like to have an extra fifty or hundred there just in case. can't stand 0.02 bc begging threads. Plan ahead my niggers!

Bitinstant? Never have had a problem with them, even when I had a problem with them, it wasn't a problem. I've been doing bitinstant into MtGox, that way I feel like I'm in control and fulfills any desires I have to be a broker.
But Fuck MtGox.
I understand they started facing stricter regulation. I also understand how ridiculous the bubble was and how much attention it brought to bitcoin and MtGox in particular. I don't think it would have bubbled that way if the trading was more distributed among the other markets.
Anyone have a favorite? BTC-e seems cool and simplistic enough, I know bitstamp is out there.
Hmm, maybe this is a question better left unanswered, I have some paranoia about coin going in and out of bad addresses and being linked to my now very real and now very verified account with mtgox.
