When buying BC amount in £ from a vendor for example you don't get what the BC exchange says you should get for your £. So how do you work out how many £ to spend, so you give the correct amount to your vendor to buy goods?   

 
@Conceited you can use a bitcoin calculator, google will give you a choice of sites if say the vendor wants £100 or $100 simply put the currency amount in the calculator and it will give you the bitcoin price. For example £100 at current bitcoin rate is 0.021 bitcoins. Where 1 bitcoin is currently trading at £4765.70 per coin.

What I ment was do bit coin take  a cut out of every £. Or take there cut from the overall amount of £ 

 
Brand new to bitcoin. And ended up using coinbase to buy. Then transfer to Edge wallet. Can someone tell me if this is a safe way to exchange since I am flying blind here? Thanks in aadvance

Good question I put small amout in one wallet and its still pending 4 days now. Tried another wallet and still got no bit coin. Makes me scared to do £££ in case I lose it all. Found it easier to  use  the bit coin shop wallet to pay for donation and that didn't go well the first attempt.

But read not to use bit coin shop wallet because they can cancel trades.

I am not very familiar with edge wallet, but it looks legit.

Conceited, what do you mean pending for four days? The BTC is not at your wallet address? That is, you deposited to coinbase, sent to an address in your wallet, and you see nothing? That does not seem possible. Small amounts are low priority for miners, but 4 days seems too long. What wallet?

Yeah im stll waiting for my pending BC transfer. Electrum is one  wallet im using so far. That's taken ages to pend.  

 
Thanks. Mine went right through with edge. In a matter of seconds so I am sticking with it.

It that a mobile app edge. I had luck with the BRD app going through quick. But the thing is you can't copy and paste BC wallet code. You got the tedious task of writing wallet code. But at least my money is there, or should i say BC

  1. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  2. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  3. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  4. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state
  5. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Hey @CuCeltic99!

  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  9. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  10. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  11. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
  12. B @ bigblueallda: Well it was a state id renewal. Before that there was a mixup and I had lost my birth certficate and social security number. After a couple of weeks and finally getting several documents in order I was able to get a state ID. It had been expired previously for a little too long and they wanted all kinds of proof. It was a mess. But nah I looked up what to look for an my state's ID to see if it is a Real Id or not and my card as the symbol it is supposed to have. I'll take a closer look though

  14. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Actually it says "Not For Real ID Purposes". That is my 2022 renewal of my 2018 picture ID. I am not due till 2026 and I am sure they will make me go in since my pic would be 8 years old - they used to make you go in in my state for aging when I was younger, then went paper - then back to picture ( I think 9/11 to blame for that ) but relaxed it.
  15. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Wow, for real ? You renewed your DL and without you knowing or having to present documents in person, they did it online? It has the star on top right and says "Rea: ID" Mine says ' NOT A Real ID" . I never knew what a Real ID was and never bothered to ask - I think I somehow was under the impression that it was for either military / gov't workers who had to travel over seas. WRONG lol.
  16. B @ bigblueallda: I already have one and didn't even realize it. I renewed my ID online about 6 months ago and I just looked at it today and it is a Real ID.
  17. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 mine was duped , too. Not sure why or how my msg. duped. IMO that guy if serious and smart wouldn’t advertise with you
  18. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I wish I had it when I flew to Vegas in 2022. The TSA line for Real ID passengers was short. Now it’s probably going to be crazy .
  19. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Has everyone got their Real ID ? I think tomorrow’s the deadline yet just now an agent from AAA (I believe ) was on local news saying you can still get it past May 7.. Required for domestic flights.
  20. T @ Turbo259: sorry for the dupe message
