Title: Dwolla to BTC to SR ?
Post by: greenFaces9 on February 27, 2013, 04:19 am
What's up everyone. My money should be available in my Dwolla account tomorrow... I was thinking about using BitInstant to send my money to and get BTC from there but apparently the option to send it straight to a BTC Wallet is not available right now, So I was going to use CampBX

Is this going to work out ? Can someone correct me on the BitInstant feature and tell me if it is back yet or not ? Do the transfers from Dwolla to your BTC source, then to your SR wallet take more than 24 hours ?
Help / suggestions are needed and appreciated thank you !  8)

go from dwolla to MTGox they are very very reliable. It is the only way i purchase my BTC. Then I go from MTGox to SR

I went from Dwolla to Campbx to SR... I heard some bad things about Campbx here and there in regards to when you put in a lot of money, so just be aware of that.

But as soon as everything cleared from dwolla, only took about 30 minutes to show up in my campbx account then another 20-30 mins to show up in my SR account. First time doing everything and was super easy. Now I tried coinbase as well so I'll see how that goes.

Yes!!! Finally what I have been waiting for !
 
My $$ From Dwolla to CampBX transfered almost instantly, then I used the $$ to purchase BTC, which appeared in my CampBX account almost immediately also.

Now I used the address provided in my "Account" tab on SR to send my BTC too, and and it says it is sent and confirmed.

So right now I'm waiting for the coins to appear in my SR account !
You said 20-30 mins, so I'll give it a few hours before I start getting worried !
