Зачем вам использовать биткойн?

Проще говоря, использование биткойна - это наиболее эффективные и действенные способ для американских игроков играть в онлайн-казино. Если вы не пользуетесь преимуществами биткойна при переводе денег, вы упускаете выгоду, и вот почему:

Анонимность и безопасность

Для тех, кого волнует неоднозначные законы США, the anonymous nature of bitcoin provides an extra layer of comfort. Unlike regular fiat currency, your personal information is not tied to the transactions you make via Bitcoin so there is no trail that can identify what you purchased. Furthermore, bitcoin is not regulated or produced by any government or financial institution so it is impossible to have your funds seized or frozen.

Никаких комиссий за транзакции

Поскольку транзакции в биткоинах не обрабатываются банками или финансовыми посредниками, онлайн-казино не взимают комиссию за перевод денег при пополнении счета и снятии средств в биткоинах. Снижая комиссионные сборы и помогая вам сохранить больше своих средств, биткойн решает некоторые из самых больших проблем, возникающих при пополнении счета и выводе средств в обычных фиатных валютах в такие оффшорные казино, как Bovada и BetOnline. While we do think Bovada is the best online casino option for US residents, they charge a whopping 5.9% fee on all subsequent credit card deposits (the first is free)! Even worse, fees increase to 9.9% when making an Amex deposit! When compared to the alternatives, depositing to Bovada using Bitcoin blows the competition out of the water; for example Bovada не взимает абсолютно никаких комиссий при пополнении счета через Bitcoin.

Скорость обработки

Another avenue where Bitcoin has a dominant advantage over fiat currencies is with payment processing speeds. If you were to request a withdrawal via check from Bovada (since they don’t do direct bank transfers due to the UIGEA), it could take up to a month to be delivered and even then, there’s still a possibility your bank won’t accept it. If you were to withdraw using bitcoin instead the transaction process is extremely fast and can take up to 15 minutes.

Покупка биткойна на бирже

Теперь, когда вы приняли решение пожинать плоды криптовалюты, пришло время купить биткоин на онлайн криптовалютной бирже. Существует множество мест, где можно купить биткойн за фиатную валюту, поэтому ваш выбор в конечном итоге сводится к личным предпочтениям. Я предпочитаю использовать Близнецы и выбрать из них наиболее подходящий вариант простоты и минимизации платы, но еще одно простое место, с которого можно начать, - это Coinbase. Most all cryptocurrency exchanges charge transaction fees, but they are usually miniscule compared to the amount you’ll save when avoiding the money transfer fees of online casinos. Что касается комиссии, то использование Gemini даст вам значительно больше возможностей для покупки, чем Coinbase. At face value, the two exchanges appear to have similar rates: Coinbase takes a minimum conversion fee of 1.49% when buying through a U.S. bank account, while Gemini charges a maximum fee of 1.00%. However, Coinbase also charges all U.S. users an additional 4% fee on deposited amounts (reflected in a higher BTC/USD rate), while bank transfers to Gemini are completely free. If you want to go with a quicker, more convenient option, you can pay for Bitcoin using a credit/debit card on Coinbase and avoid having to link a bank account, but you’ll be hit with a 3.99% conversion fee alongside the Coinbase deposit ‘base fee’ of 4%. Additionally, you should be aware that some credit card providers may charge additional fees on cryptocurrency purchases. For visualization purposes, these three options and their fee structures are compared below: Пользовательские интерфейсы Gemini и Coinbase делают их хорошим выбором для криптовалютных новичков, желающих освоить мир биткоина, но имейте в виду, что удобство Coinbase (незначительно лучшее) сопряжено с довольно значительными затратами. Как только вы освоитесь с этим процессом, вы всегда можете начать изучать другие варианты и использовать другие биржи. Самое главное здесь - просто получить в свои руки немного биткойна по справедливой цене. По этой причине я сосредоточусь на покупке и продаже биткоина с помощью Gemini.

Внесение средств в Gemini

To use Gemini, you will need to create an account, verify your identity, and link a bank account. This took me about a week in late 2017, but Gemini may have become more efficient in their verification process. However, once you have everything set up and verified, using Gemini will be much quicker for future transactions. Once you’ve registered and your details have been verified, you will need to deposit funds to your account. [TRANSFER FUNDS > Deposit into Exchange > USD (Bank Transfer)] Вам нужно будет выбрать источник финансирования (привязанный банковский счет) и ввести желаемую сумму депозита в долларах США. Затем нажмите кнопку "ОФОРМИТЬ ДЕПОЗИТ". Появится информация о вашем запросе на пополнение счета. Убедитесь, что вся информация верна, и нажмите "CONFIRM", чтобы разрешить депозит в долларах США. Deposit amounts may be immediately available for trading in Gemini—meaning you are ready to convert USD to BTC. However, funds will typically take 4-5 business days to clear from your bank account to Gemini, and you won’t be able to withdraw BTC to an off-exchange wallet until this occurs. At this point, I recommend waiting for your funds to clear and then proceeding to purchase Bitcoin or setting a low, limit order that has a chance of being met while you’re waiting. If you’d like to risk the volatile price swings of BTC, however, feel free to exchange USD to BTC, and vice-versa, whenever you please, but be aware that there are 1% conversion fees associated with each trade, and the price of Bitcoin could plummet at any moment.

Покупка биткойна на Gemini

Once funds clear from your bank account to Gemini, it’s time to convert your funds to BTC. [BUY > BTCUSD] On the right side of the screen, you will see several variables that determine how your buy order is placed. For the optimal mix of simplicity and value, I recommend placing a ‘Limit’ order, meaning that you will pay no more than the price you enter in the following field. Try choosing a price that is slightly lower than the current going rate, and wait a few minutes for your order to be met. If you’d like to quickly buy at the current market rate, however, you can place a ‘Market’ order, disregard price and quantity, and simply enter the total amount of USD you wish to convert to BTC; the other fields will be automatically filled in. When you’re ready, click ‘BUY’. You will be prompted to confirm your order. Review all the information, and select ‘CONFIRM’ if everything looks good. If you scroll down, you can view your order status. Как только ордер будет выполнен, вы успешно приобретете BTC, и настанет время перевести вашу криптовалюту на внебиржевой кошелек.

Перевод ваших биткойнов на кошелек

So, you’ve bought Bitcoin, but it’s still not really yours until you get it off the centralized exchange you bought it from. By leaving your cryptocurrency stored on an online exchange like Gemini or Coinbase, you compromise the security of your funds and lack control. With Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, holding the private key associated with your wallet is critical, and exchanges don’t afford that access. But wallets do. It’s much safer to transfer Bitcoin directly into your own cryptocurrency wallet before using it to make a casino deposit. For more information on why you shouldn’t leave your Bitcoin in an exchange, нажмите здесь. For online gamblers in particular, существует также вероятность того, что ваш биржевой счет будет приостановлен(especially if you use Coinbase) if they detect you are transferring funds to a casino. You might be thinking “but isn’t Bitcoin anonymous?!”. Well not entirely. If you transfer directly from an identity-linked exchange, like Coinbase or Gemini, they can track whether transactions are going towards an online casino by keeping an eye on the deposit addresses provided. However if you add the extra step of transferring Bitcoin to your own wallet first, then it is much more anonymous, and no one will be able to tell what products or services you are purchasing with your bitcoin.

Получение биткойн-кошелька

A Bitcoin wallet is essentially a software program that gives you total ownership and control of the Bitcoin you just purchased. Technically it doesn’t store the Bitcoin itself but it stores a private key that is used to identify your ownership of the Bitcoin. There are multiple types of Bitcoin wallets and mainly come in desktop, mobile, web, and hardware-based forms. There are many options but to keep things simple, we recommend using Electrum который является бесплатным, безопасным и простым в использовании. Если у вас возникли проблемы с установкой Electrum, вы можете посетить это руководство здесь

Перевод BTC из Gemini в Electrum

В кошельке Electrum есть вкладка 'Receive', где в поле 'Receiving address' указывается длинное значение. Вы будете использовать это значение для отправки Bitcoin из Gemini в , поэтому убедитесь, что вы скопировали его в точности, иначе вы отправите BTC не тому человеку или в ничейную страну; Транзакции в биткоинах необратимы. Now, renavigate to Gemini to withdraw your BTC from the exchange and send it to your Bitcoin wallet. [TRANSFER FUNDS > Withdraw From Exchange > BTC] Затем введите адрес, который вы только что скопировали, в поле "АДРЕС НАЗНАЧЕНИЯ", а затем введите сумму BTC, которую вы хотите отправить/вывести. Когда все будет готово, нажмите кнопку "REVIEW WITHDRAWAL". Дважды проверьте, совпадает ли ваш адрес, а затем подтвердите вывод средств. After confirming the transaction, you should now see it appear in your Electrum wallet within minutes. It will probably be unconfirmed on the Bitcoin network, however, meaning that you will have to wait for more Bitcoin network confirmations before having access to the funds. This process should only take a few minutes. When everything is cleared, you will be notified of the confirmation and ready to deposit your BTC to an online casino.

Пополнение счета в онлайн-казино

This is a very similar process to what you just did in the previous step when transferring funds from the exchange to Electrum. However, this time you’re going to transfer from Electrum to the online casino’s wallet address. First, login to the casino you choose to play at (For the purposes of this tutorial, I am using Bovada, which I recommend for U.S. players). After you are signed into Bovada, click ‘DEPOSIT’ from the upper corner of the site. Select ‘Bitcoin’ as the deposit method, provide your personal information, and then click ‘SAVE AND CONTINUE’ to verify your identity and activate the payment method. Введите желаемую сумму депозита и нажмите кнопку "ДЕПОЗИТ" в нижней части формы. Просмотрите всю информацию, прежде чем скопировать адрес кошелька - это публичный адрес, который вы можете использовать для отправки BTC в Bovada. После того как вы скопировали адрес, откройте кошелек Electrum и перейдите на вкладку "Отправить". Paste the provided wallet address into the ‘Pay to’ field. Then, input the appropriate amount of BTC and a description if you’d like. You can also adjust the Bitcoin network transaction fee by moving the slider; transactions with higher fees typically process faster, as these fees are what are used to reward Bitcoin miners for adding transactions to their blocks (and effectively confirming them). You might have to wait a few minutes for enough confirmations to unlock your deposited funds, but funds should be available for use in your Bovada account almost instantaneously. With your casino account now funded via Bitcoin, you are ready to play!

Вывод ваших BTC из онлайн-казино

When it comes time to withdraw your Bitcoin from an online casino, make sure you do it straight back into your Electrum wallet, similar to the way described above. Request a withdrawal from your online casino using ‘Bitcoin’ as the payment method. On Bovada, you will be asked to provide a wallet address, your mother’s maiden name (oddly enough, the only security option available), and a withdrawal amount. If you are unsure of your wallet address, you can open Electrum, and navigate to the ‘Receive’ tab. Your wallet address will be shown in the ‘Receiving address’ field; copy this for later. Back at the online casino, enter all appropriate information, using your Electrum wallet address as the withdrawal destination. Сделать НЕ выводите средства на свой обменный счет! As mentioned previously, it’s possible for exchanges to detect withdrawals from casinos, and they can potentially close your account down. As such, you should always be making deposits and withdrawals from your personal Bitcoin wallet. When you’re ready, request the withdrawal. You will see confirmation of your request. At this point, you may need to wait up to 48 hours for Bovada to approve your withdrawal request and actually send BTC to your Electrum wallet address. You should receive a confirmation email when the BTC withdrawal is approved and officially sent by Bovada. When the time comes you should be able to see that the appropriate amount of BTC has arrived in your wallet.

Конвертация ваших BTC обратно в фиатную валюту

At some stage, you may want to convert your Bitcoin back into fiat currency, which involves using an exchange like Gemini or Coinbase, as we have used so far in this guide. Converting BTC back into fiat currency pretty much follows the reverse process of converting fiat currency into BTC. You can easily do this by transferring BTC from your wallet to an exchange, selling BTC for USD, and then transferring USD to your bank account, but be aware that further fees are charged on each transaction: 1% on Gemini, and 1.49% on Coinbase. If you’re looking to reduce fees, you can try registering for Coinbase Pro (which used to be called GDAX), which is a cryptocurrency exchange that allows you to sell Bitcoin to USD on the market without transaction fees. After you request a USD withdrawal on any exchange, it should take a few days for funds to process and reach your bank account.
