Coinbase and Circle

nonsense1970 · Dec 12, 2016

Hello,
what are other providers besides circle and coinbase. I had been using circle since June with no issues. I tried to add money on 12/1 and was told my account is in review. It's been 2 weeks and no word yet. Not sure what they are reviewing. I have never used coinbase but seeing what else is out there.

thanks

IRS has access to coinbase accounts. Trying to find people who evade paying any taxes owed to them.

Can anyone else verify this?

IRS does have Coinbase info. It shouldn't matter unless you're a drug dealer moving lots of money.

Circle no longer works as an exchange. They refer customers to Coinbase.

Thanks for the replies.

raiders72, are you still using bitcoin/blockchain/circle etc? Any other changes we should be concerned with?

It's best to use an exchange, such as Poloniex, Bitstamp, BTC-e, Kraken, instead of Blockchain.info. Exchanges "wash" the money.

? Thought block chain was safe?

Blockchain.info worked in the past but it doesn't always work now since it is traceable. Blockchain.info is a wallet. Exchanges and mixers such as bitmixer.io make it untraceable to Coinbase.

This is how mixers work. https://bitmixer.io/how.html
