Turns out that in my early, clueless, crypto market searching, I started an account with coin spot can’t have been too painful as I don’t remember doing it, nothing like the young guy at work, he showed me the photo of him holding a sign with a sentence and a few details that he had to send them before waiting weeks for confirmation
So it’s got me thinking, I moved a few xrp back to btcM the other day just to play with ( which isn’t going well, I’m actually down 6 xrp ), coin spot is trading at about 5c - 10c higher than btcM, I could shuffle my xrp between them and make a few, btcM fees ( for me vary ) are currently at .85% and CS fees apparently vary between 1-3%. 1 buy and 1 transfer at btcMand 1 sell and 1 transfer at CS could cost between 3.5 - 7.5% total, seems pretty steep, CS fees are crazy, so I’d have to make at least 10% per set to make it a worth considering.

Is anyone else doing anything like this? Some experienced opinions would be good..

How long does it take to move btc or xrp from btcmarket to coinspot? Sometimes CS prices are significantly higher...

Whole day massive gains and a sudden nosedive in the evening. Funny orders surfaced @ $1.80 / XRP

Dont stress mate. You should be able to get it lower than that. It is bouncing all around the shop in the last couple of days.

VEN has been solid, all through this dip, stayed steady and done a couple of good runs, loving it, got on it at 40 cents.

I have been talking crypto with a bloke here at work. He signed up and put his verification into coinspot late last night. He has already been approved at 8:00am local SA time. That is crazy. It took me roughly 10 business days.... Maybe I am dodge.....

The backing isn't worth a damn unless a holder of this crypto currency can exchange their holdings for actual gold at will. Someone once told me, "you don't hold it, you don't own it".

Smart advertising by the mint tho.

All they want is people buying up the gold.

Sounds like an exchange in china got hacked. Someone got away with over $100 million in ripple. Might be why it is plummeting. People might be scared off??

The media and the banks are really making a concerted effort to tank Bitcoin:

Probably they want to invest into it but at a more reasonable price, so they try to drop it first

The problem is that it would be a race to the bottom.
