Where can i have my paycheck direct deposited into a staking account?
by

on 04/03/2022, 01:17:25 UTC
I would like to have my employer direct deposit part of my paycheck into some type of account where the money would automatically be converted to a crypto currency and immediately staked. I would like this to happen without me doing anything.

Example, let's say I want the crypto currency to be LINK. Employer direct deposits (ACH transaction) the paycheck to the account, the money is then immediately exchanged to LINK, and then it is staked.

I get that it goes against the fundamentals of crypto currency, but exactly for what reasons though? Assuming you're not using it for anything illegal (if you are then it's understandable), why the concern? I'm asking specifically when trading.
This would be a good read up.

KYC is something that do exposed all of your information and we know that it could leaked out and could be
sold off on darkmarket.Yes, you had done nothing illegal but do you allow on something like this.

That was hard to read, tbh. What's the gist of it? Any tldr by any chance?

Re: Why should I use Kucoin over Binance?

Kucoin is currently on Rank 5 by adjusted volume. Before Kucoin is really on the bottom of the list, but as time goes by, they are climbing.
But if Binance compares to Kucoin, it's still very far for me, especially if we will measure it on the volume, not even 50%.

But there are lot of things that why you should use Kucoin instead of Binance sometimes, especially for me when you are hunting a hidden gem altcoin, because most of listed altcoins in Binance is already pumped or ROI is likely low.

Another thing is why I am still using Binance, is because their P2P. It's really easy to convert your fiat currency to cryptocurrency or vice versa.

Wow! FTX is #3?? Bigger than Kucoin?? How?? I definitely didn't expect that.

I'm guess Binance.com and Kucoin are like Coca-Cola and Pepsi, at the top of the exchange food chain. But if you had to go with only one, which would you go with, and why? Trying to decide...help me out guys!

P.s P2P not being a factor. And of course, for trading.

For example, if I have 100 usd worth of each X, Y and Z coin, can I withdraw only 10 usd worth of Y coin?
It may worth taking a look here: https://www.binance.com/en/fee/cryptoFee

Are those the only fees incurred when withdrawing?

For example if I'm withdrawing 10 MATIC, it says the fee is 0.17 MATIC, does that mean I'll end up with 9.83 MATIC (10−0.17=9.83)?

Is the 0.17 gas fees? If it is then doesn't Binance charge a fee for their service? Or is the 0.17 their service charge and the gas fees will be separate?

Or does it have to be all of it, whether for that particular currency or all the currencies held?
You can withdraw only coins that you have in your balance, or you can convert everything in one coin (Bitcoin, etc) and withdraw it all or partially.
Note that in near future Binance may also remove the withdrawal option for unverified accounts, so I would suggest that you either withdraw coins now or submit verification details.

Can unverified users convert?

Re: Does Binance.com allow buying fiat on p2p & have the fiat sent to someone else?
by

Why not tell your friend to make a Binance account so that you can directly send BTC to him and exchange it into fiat through P2P?

Because the person is not into crypto and its not feasible for them to start learning now just for this. It's not exactly as simple as creating an email account.

Adding another payment method to your Binance account should be the same name as what you use in your Binance account. So you can't able to use other's bank account to exchange crypto to FIAT.

Is it really adding another payment method? I thought it was me > p2 seller > me. Not me > p2 seller > Binance > me. Meaning the seller is the one who is sending the money from their account to the account I give them. It's not Binance that's sending me the money from their account.

It is against their policy.

III. Buyer’s Instructions:

2. Please use the payment method with the account owner name that is consistent with your registered name on Binance (The name must be identical with the KYC Verified name on Binance.) The Platform does not support non-real-name verified payment methods. The User’s P2P function will be suspended for a minimum of 15 days if a non-real-name verified payment method has been used.

... 7. In case of any violations of the “Buyer’s Instructions”, the Platform may, in accordance with this Policy, the Terms or relevant laws and regulations, or in its sole discretion, take measures as it considers fit, including but not limited to freezing the violator’s account or disabling any account functions on the Binance trading platform or/and the Platform.

IV. Seller’s Instructions:

1. The account owner name you have used for collecting payment must be consistent with your registered name on Binance. (The name shall be identical with the KYC Verified name on Binance.)

...8. In case of any violations of the stated “Seller’s Instructions”, the Platform may, in accordance with this Policy, the Terms or relevant laws and regulations, or in its own discretion, take measures as it considers fit, including but not limited to freezing the violator’s account or disabling any account functions on the Binance trading platform.

Can I ask what's your purpose OP? You can wait for the money to land to your bank account then proceed to transfer them to non-binance person either thru their bank/somewhere else.

Because it's easier that way. Instead extra unnecessary steps/transfers.

What's the cheapest way to withdraw different crypto currencies from Binance?
by
Turbolantern

If you're not verified on Biance and you have different coins in it, what's the cheapest way to withdraw them all? And tips and tricks?

Since they've disabled trading for unverified users, it's not possible to convert the coins to btc and withdraw them (or is it?). So what would be the most cost effictive way to withdraw the coins, and would the fees of that way be equivalent to how much it would have been had you converted your coins to btc and withdrew?

Re: Binance vs Kucoin vs FTX... Which to go with (KYC non issue)?

The real reason why  Sam of FTX decided to part ways with Binance partnership is because Binance don't to follow the law and just contented on dodging the law by changing there headquarters location regularly. I don't know about Kucoin but FTX is the one showing cooperation to the law and happily complying with it. I trust Sam and most of the project that they are working with like Serum and Solana.
It is part of reasons only.

Sam SBF and FTX decided to separate from Binance because they now would prefer to compete against Binance. They think their exchange are growing up and big enough to compete against top exchanges exclusively Binance.

I don't think the separation is simply because issues of Binance with law, regulations, etc. FTX on their side are very careful to meet regulations and do preventive activities against law suits. It is a good strategy to build up a trusted exchange without or with at least drama as possible.

My vote goes to FTX is also because they give very cheap withdrawal fee for users.

Isn't the Alemeda group notorious for pumping and dumping, basically using their users and leaving them high and dry?

I believe Localbitcoins used to be the top when it came to p2p but they now require KYC. Who took that spot?
And what about exchanges?

Note I'm asking about full service exchanges and P2P services, and not ones that put a limit for non verified users.

Re: What's the cheapest way to cash out your coins?

For non-US users.

That leaves only 190 and so countries, do you expect to get any real information with that many details you've rained upon us?
Non-US can mean China, Germany, Salvador or Afghanistan, I'm willing to bet that nobody will ever be able to provide you a solution that would be the cheaper for ll four of them.

Probably P2P is the cheapest of them all, but the only problem that I feel like plagues the P2P market is that a lot of people are not fair with how they sell and buy their price, they almost always go OP when they're selling and go total cheapskate when they're buying. One example is the USDT P2P market in the Philippines, the price for buying is criminally low, they cut around 14% or so when buying USDT.

You just managed to contradict yourself in the first line.
I don't understand why people say P2P is the cheapest, with the P2P markets the seller/buyer is treating this as a business, he's making money out of this and you're going to have to pay for that when you're dealing with them. Have you ever seen a seller on P2P giving you a better price than the spot orders?


 

Stop to recommend the binance p2p marketplace. It's one the worst to use. People are so funny, they shitpost here and there about decentralization, pseudo-anonymity, etc but as you can see they don't follow their own advice.

There are better alternatives than Binance. Why bother with a website in which you will need to upload a personal document. If you're ok with then perhaps you have nothing to do in the crypto world and you should rather stay using fiats and banks. You don't even know what payment the guy is looking to use.

Definitely one of the last to use

As for @OP, I agree with the post above. If you don't say anything about your area or payment network, nobody can advise you of anything useful. People will just fill the space listing everything, even the useless one. Are you using, swift, sepa, ach,...

OK. Not Binance then.
Care to mention what then?

I didn't mention payment method and said the cheapest because I meant from the lot. I'm open to all methods.

Asl for location, Thailand. Or anywhere else in the region.

Appreciate your pointers.
