- pat2man 9y agoBasically it takes 8 days for your litecoin to be available (aka transferable) because otherwise you could just transffer your litecoin to another wallet and reverse the charge from your bank. You still get your coins at the price you paid.
- rishsharma 9y agoUse gdax.com
- toddmatthews 9y agoMy guess is you are waiting 8 days for your bank transfer, not the litecoin. If you had money already in your account, or paid with a credit card it would be there immediately
- jrm2k6 9y agoUse your credit card. Transferring funds between your bank account and Coinbase takes forever.
- beebmam 9y agoI just used my credit card about 9 hours ago. I've had the money taken out of my credit card, but I've yet to see the coins appear in my wallet for sending or selling. It shows in coinbase that the transaction was "Completed", but I have nothing so far. How long does the credit card process take?
- always_good 9y agoIf it seems easy, it surely must be easy. -- HN It's funny because you're actually mad at ACH here.
- nwah1 9y agoThere's identity checks and SWIFT and lots of other possible points of slowness, but the fact that coinbase doesn't really circumvent them in practice is kinda the point being made.
