On a side note, is there any plan to incorporate google 2FA in CoinJar?

Hi ArcticWolf, we don't like to pre-anounce features though we've had a lot of requests for this from our users.  All I can say is keep an eye on our blog and you might see something appear soon Wink - http://blog.coinjar.io

+1 to coinjar, really quick processing and low fees compared to others.

Only had one issue which was about a week ago with the manual transfer thing, but that was sorted out pretty quickly.

Do you accept cash trades at your office? It'd be really handy if you did.

Thanks cooldude123, we're still growing and we try our best to make everything right by our customers.

Unfortunately we won't be accepting cash trades at our offices.  Just from a security point of view, having a large number of people coming in and out of our offices, and also having cash lying around, we're just not at that size where we can guarantee safety.

Hi, Jerrold here from CoinJar. 

Just thought I'd add another voice to the conversation.  Kelsey, we've done a lot of background work on the banking system here in Australia before pursuing CoinJar, though we're very interested here to hear why you think direct credit is a bad way to do a bitcoin business in Australia.  If you'd like to discuss on the forum we're more than happy to hear your thoughts.  Consequently I'm also happy to discuss privately via email, which you can reach at my first name, at coinjar dot io.

As for zhoutong being on our team, both us and our investors are more than happy to have him on board.  We are a public and open company, and all information about us and our team can be found on our website.  We are not hiding anything.

Is that understanding correct?

Sounds right to me.  Or use an online wallet and they'll "back up" your coins for you.

The end of June is only 2.5 weeks away, unless you know something we don't?

The easiest thing is to probably try and earn $50, then you can use that money to exchange for Bitcoins ...

I sometimes buy burgers at one local shop with bitcoins. It is quite practical and quick.

Interesting, where abouts is this and how is it done?

Thanks, unfortunately I don't use Windows, nor do I have an Android phone :/ 

The Windows version does look slightly better than the Mac one, might be worth installing Parallels again ...

Alternatives to Electrum?
by

on 18/05/2013, 14:02:11 UTC
I've been playing around with a couple of Bitcoin wallets recently, and have stumbled upon Electrum. 

For me, this wallet is really appealing as I don't have the resources to maintain the blockchain on my machine, and I don't really like the idea of handing over my coins to Blockchain / Coinbase to store, and Electrum seems to be that nice compromise.  The big disadvantage though is the UI is terrible, and I'm really put off using it. 

Just wondering if there are any other wallets which are similar in structure to Electrum, or other wallets which don't involve me having to trust another company with all my coins?

+1 for blockchain.  Even though it's been compromised recently, it is still the most "non-dodgy" wallet.
