starky Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 Hi guys, so I am bit of noob when it comes to crypto but reading through other friends I have signed up with bx (as I want all my crypto trading done here as opposed to my home country). Problem is this the website seems really clunky the deposits seems set up for withdrawals and vice versa. I looked to trade in the smaller currencies but the main page seems fully devoted to bitcoin. The only other trading page I could find was linked to a Vietnamese website. So what is going on and how do you actually buy any of the 20 or so smaller coins bx seems to have? Thanks.

Pungdo Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) See the image below, you need to click on the THB tab, the Coins / Tokens displayed in there are the only ones you can buy with Baht, I think, the rest you will need to trade another coin for what you want.

alien365 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) 4 hours ago, starky said: Don't want to buy bitcoin If you click on the arrow as speedtripler stated it opens a table of all of the currencies, then you click on whichever you want to look at. You can click on the THB markets tab if you have no interest in coins that can only be bought with Bitcoin.

Shaunduhpostman Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 The exchanges I've used don't let you buy anything other than the major crypto currencies using fiat currencies. So you then quickly trade your Bitcoin for the newer smaller cryptos. Check out coinmarket cap dot com for a listing of all the crypto coins people use and all the different exchanges they can be bought on, who knows you might find one that will sell the smaller coins for fiat currencies. I've never heard of that tho. I'd be wary, that kind of arrangement strikes me as a little too good to be true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sirbergan Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 (edited) Are you sure you're on the right site? I find it very user friendly, and have bought several currencies for Thai Baht. Edited February 9, 2018 by Sirbergan Typo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

how241 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Hello, I hope someone can explain something to me...I am thinking about buying some coins on 'bx' and transferring them to a 'Trezor' hardware wallet...I don't understand where the coins or coin info is stored ... They say that if you lose your 'Trezor' wallet to just go and buy another one and use the recovery seed and password to restore your coins...That would indicate to me that the coins and coin info are being stored in the cloud or at the 'Trezor' website or servers... If so, then how is that really safe and what is stopping those places from being hacked and you losing everything ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cat handler Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Sounds like a great idea, I would invest all your money in Bitcoin or any of the other Ponsi schemes, what could possibly go wrong, it’s not as if they aren’t backed by gold or a Government right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titan1962 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 BX is fine,been using the website for nearly 12 months now. No real issues except when I had issues with my 2FA. My fault,LOL. Anyway take your time and explore the website like others have said. Also they do have a good selection of coins,but not all. They do add coins at their discretion ,XRP,omg,evx,BCH lately. I would also recommend buying a ledger nano s to store them on rather than leaving them on the exchange. I find it stores all the coins I am interested in,via MEW My ether wallet.But the best advice I can give,take your time and understand what you are doing before you do it.Check out you tube for vids that will assist you,learnt a lot from there. cheers and best of luck and stay safe. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I commented to warn him against buying something that is in fact nothing, only a fool would buy bitcoin or any of these so called currencies, better to invest in the share market, at least the companies you invest in actually produce things and make profits, or invest in real currencies that are backed by Governments, a Bitcoin is nothing but a made up currency that doesn’t exist, tell you what, I’ve just invented a Bamcoin, would you like to buy $2000 worth?

OK...I see you point although I don't agree with it...The point of investing is to make money and IF someone makes money with the coins, then that looks good to me...Life is all a gamble and 'good-timing' is another way of saying "I had good luck"... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lost A$665K that was invested in shares and other traditional investments in the crash in 2008-09, damn sure I Wont be losing anything like that investing in Cryptocurrencies and stand the chance of making far more than I would ever made out of shares.
