                  @whooah1979: Was going to transfer Bitcoin from my CoinSpot wallet equivalent to $25USD but CoinSpot were going to charge me a fee of 0.0003BTC (US$8.51)! Is that usual?

                    @rye: Yes that seems to be the ballpark for BTC transfers (was 17 AUD ish from another exchange). I was just looking at some fees from another exchange, it seems like BCH, LTC, BSV, and ETC are some common coins that have <0.2 AUD transfer fees.

        You can buy CEL elsewhere and transfer it, will probably work out cheaper.

        Here's a list of markets you can buy it on: https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/celsius-network-token#mar…
        . Liquid looks good, but has high withdrawal fees. Uniswap is probably your best bet, but make sure to check that ETH gas fees are low before you do it.

        Still definitely worth it, CEL has been pumping like crazy, and the platform is a great alternative to a savings account if you just want to dump stablecoins there for the interest. They support TAUD, pegged 1:1 with the AUD, earns up to 13.86%.

        I pay my taxes, I don't want the ATO on my back. Bitcoin was $500USD when I first bought it. Even after taxes I can retire in comfort right now, so don't want to take the risk. Don't forget the 50% tax offset discount for long held (12 months) assets.

        With data matching, its very easy for the ATO to look at your bank accounts and ask where all that income comes from. Don't want the hassle.

      • techlead on 30/12/2020 - 14:50

        Crypto has cashflow and tax benefits (don't forget the 50% tax discount for long held assets applies to crypto as well).

        My point is, your returns would have been more with crypto. Not saying you can't profit from property investing, of course there are profits to be made there. Question is, how much and in how long.

        Depending on the coin, you'd be more than 40% up lol, that's nothing in cryptoworld haha.

        • mr_asstight on 30/12/2020 - 14:53

          Well I like having my housing debt crystalised in a hyperinflation environment knowing other assets like cryptos will absorb the money printing pressure to pay off that loan faster. That's how the fiat debt system works and is being used by the central bankers ever since gold standard was abolished. I'm just doing the same thing on an individual basis.

          • techlead on 30/12/2020 - 14:55

    DOT and CEL are not in BTCmarkets ?? is this "celsius an alternative to BTCMarkets" ?? I have been using btc lately so what are you guys using if not btc? m novice in all this so learning my way.
    I also came across Zebpay, but only accessible only via app i think; thoughts if anyone has used it ?

    • techlead on 30/12/2020 - 10:15

      Celsius is not an exchange. BTCMarkets is an Australian based exchange with a fiat onramp. So you use BTCMarkets or Independent Reserve to buy Crypto, eg Bitcon, ETH etc, then you withdraw the crypto to another exchange which has the altcoin you want to buy, for example, Binance, Kucoin, Bitmax etc.

      After you buy the altcoin you want, and if its supported by Celsius, you can then deposit into Celsius.

      • abhi900 on 30/12/2020 - 10:17

        aah…ok, so i buy from BTC and transfer to CEL and hold it here .. if i want to sell then i transfer from CEL to BTC and cycle continues ? fair assumption?

        • techlead on 30/12/2020 - 10:20

          Correct, and why sell I presume you mean sell for fiat (AUD)? If so, that's right, you withdraw from CEL to BTCmarkets to sell into AUD and withdraw it back into your bank account.

          • abhi900 on 30/12/2020 - 10:26

              @abhi900: Get Coinbase wallet. Then transfer whatever altcoin BTC, ETH etc etc. You can then add the Uniswap interface inside the wallet and swap from one to CEL. CEL will then be stored safely in your Coinbase wallet. You can then send it to the CEL wallet to earn interest if you want or just keep it in Coinbase wallet.

        • hen dawg on 30/12/2020 - 10:27

          Correct, send it to a Celsius wallet. Withdraw out to where you sent it from (or another external wallet), it's not selling. Your exchange may charge a fee but Celsius don't charge any fees, in or out, they absorb them themselves.

          • abhi900 on 30/12/2020 - 10:32

              @abhi900: I've not used BTCMarkets exchange but there will be some option to 'withdraw'. You 1st go into Celsius and select 'transfer coins' copy the long wallet address of whatever coin you are going to send. Then back on your exchange you start the withdraw process by entering the copied address.
              Once all security is done you patiently wait, it can take a little while.

                  @abhi900: Just so people are aware withdrawal fees for BTC can be higher than you think. On Binance it is 0.0005 BTC which is about A$17 or US$14.

                  So if you’re only going to deposit US$20, most of your promo bonus is going to get chewed up in withdrawal fees.

      Welcome to crypto! Read some other comments above, best to sign up to a crypo exchange, buy coins there and sent to Celsius. Extra step and sign up but avoids in-app credit card charges.
      For simple process, all via an app I can suggest https://crypto.com/en/index.html. Don't need the actual 'exchange' part, just via the phone app. You can PayID in with AUD to buy coins (maybe 1st transfer has to be BPAY)

              @fozzie: USD $20 equiv of any coin, if in doubt just buy a bit more e.g. $50 of BTC or ETH, or if you prefer something pegged to the USD dollar try USDC.

              The interest rate on USDC is ~11%.
              The interest rate on BTC/ETH is about ~5% but both are much more volatile.

              USDC is the safe bet for starting out.

        Is it the crypto.com the best exchange for AU-based people? Someone above said Gemini has no transfer/withdrawal fees ?
        how much will I get charged to transfer to Cel network from cypto.com?

        hodl for 30 days then I will get the bonus, right?

          They loan out crypto coins as a collateralized loan, they make money loaning it out, they then pay 80% of the profits back in interest to savers. They also make profits with trading I believe.

            @hen dawg: From what I read there they loan at 1% and pay at 10%. It still doesn't make sense to me, and I am concerned by the whole big banks are ripping you off nonsense . The cash rate is .10%, online savings accounts are paying a bonus 1%, and the government guarantees your deposit up to 250K. For 100% guaranteed money with risk at almost zero, 1.1% is very reasonable in this market.

            When you take on more risk, you get more rewards. I just don't see where the income is coming from to support such high payout rates to people who are storing money on an exchange where they don't hold the keys. You basically give them your coins and hope they return them to you at some point. I wonder how a massive drop in BTC would impact them, what good is a billion dollars in loans if the collateral supporting it is now only worth 500 million?

            Do they have very low LVR? You put 20K value of BTC in trust on their exchange and their keys and they only lend you 4K fiat?

            • shadowangel on 30/12/2020 - 13:04

              If anyone trusted the company completely then it seems an easy target for arbitrage. On a risk scale of 1 to 100 for a million dollars I wonder how close to 100 this would be…

                @peterpeterpumpkin: Yes, and I get concerned that most 'answers' to these reasonable questions are 'read a reddit ama from the guy who runs it', or 'watch a youtube video', or 'you're stuck in the past old man, this is the future. enjoy your 0.5% on ETFs' etc.

                I think decentralised cryptographic currencies have merit as an electronic form of cash for sending value quickly and cheaply electronically, particularly across borders as sending money quickly and cheaply within Australia has already been solved with beam it and payid for the most part.

              @OzzyBrak: Yes it's hard to get head around but I've looked extensively into it am sold on it.
              The banking system always skims as much as possible off for itself and it's shareholders, screwing over the average person because they have effective monopoly and have been allowed to get away with it.
              The 0.10% cash rate is irrelevant for Celsius, that's used by the central bank to manipulate the economy.
              I won't try any more to change minds of sceptics. It's fine to keep your money 100% safe in a bank but with low interest rates and inflation it's basically going negative

                @hen dawg: Yes, each person has their own risk tolerances. My point is when the price falls and the money stops rolling in, I wonder how many people will be able to get their assets out. Honestly having 3 billion dollars sitting in your own wallet is a pretty big incentive to do a runner.

        Hey!

        Thanks for your reply! I was moreso referring to the savings. I would assume just like traditional banks where you accrue interest it's a taxable event, just like if you were to make any gains from Celsius interest?

        I'll look more into it and see if I can find some answers.

        • shadowangel on 30/12/2020 - 13:05

          Yes it will be taxable.

      You can leave your tax identification number empty. This is a US entity. You still need to declare gains in your tax return if you are using crypto for investing rather than personal use.

    so i can transfer any crypto and hold it for 30 days in Celsius and it qualifies?

    • onceupon8 on 30/12/2020 - 11:19

      Yes over USD $20 worth.

    • MOPAP on 30/12/2020 - 15:48

      Yes any crypto they support, and earn a good interest rate while its with them. Interest is paid weekly on a Monday, based on the holding you had on the previous Friday.

    • gamesnepal on 30/12/2020 - 13:05

      I will try this. I have joined using a random referral code. I will complete the KYC and deposit to try and get $90 BTC bonus.

    • mogley on 30/12/2020 - 13:39

      Or you can deposit $400 and use WELCOME30 and get $20 + $30 from WELCOME30 ($50)

      • hanofee on 31/12/2020 - 00:38

        Does Welcome30 really exist and need $200 deposit instead (as opposed to $20 for Welcome20)?

    • UberIsCool on 30/12/2020 - 12:51

      But this isnt.

      • shadowangel on 30/12/2020 - 12:56

        It's understandable to think this way hopefully the projects in the pipeline help more with transparency. Also Celsius should have its Australian office up next year.

        • Poor Ass on 30/12/2020 - 12:58

          yeah maybe i'll apply for a job

      • Poor Ass on 30/12/2020 - 12:57

        ya I know just a joke

        I like Celsius and have crypto there

    • techlead on 30/12/2020 - 14:44
