3 days is still a very long time compared to the 'real' currency exchanges.

- etherael 13y agoBy three days, I mean, I initiate a transfer from bitstamp, and I get it into my thai bank account within three business days. The transfer is always verified and initiated on the other end on the same day I make it.
