Irony

[Madslashingslasher]

I find it highly ironic that exchanges such as bitstamp take 3-5 day to fund an account through wire transfer so one can purchase a coin that has a transfer rate of 3-5 seconds. Maybe bitstamp should sign up with Ripple. (shrugs shoulders)

The irony is not lost on me either. Slow a.f.

Its not the exchanges fault. Its the banks fault. Actually its SWIFT's fault. That SWIFT takes 4-5 days to move your money? Thats an irony

Before achieving such speed, wait you must.

Ya. SWIFT. 4-5 days. Irony. What else, you say? Well, it is by wire transfer. Wire transfers were first used in the 1870's by-you guessed it, Western Union.

Yeh. Could be the type of wire being used. And its probably rusty as hell.... perhaps Optical fibre would fix the problem?

This whole delay thing screwed me over too. I saw the price rocket from 0.70 from when I first became interested to what it is now and I still haven't received the funds I'm going to put toward my majority xrp purchase. Been 9 days now. Damn coinbase.

Wait until 3 of the top 5 global money transfer companies that mentioned they will utilize XRP start offering their services. You will then be able to transfer money to an exchange in 3 seconds
