I used bter at first then upgraded to bct38.Welcome

In addition to the ah-ha moment question, Where did you hear about us from?

I would honestly just use bter.

At the moment I think the Gateways are still bleeding edge tech.  People are experimenting with them now, but probably not transferring large sums yet.

bter is quite good and there is much volume.  You can really get through the whole process done in under 15 minutes.

Make sure you have an account registered on the blockchain first.

When exporting bts from bter you need to use your bitshares account NAME and not the public key.

I've finally been convinced by the BTS tech. So I want to shift a large portion of my BTC into BTS.
My hope is I can do it without registering with BTER or other 3rd party exchanges, but I need help.
 
I am trying the BTC>BTS gateway by:

and waiting for the gateway by:
dev-metaexchange.monsterer
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=12317.msg169360#msg169360
 
Are there any other options?
Is it safer to trust a delegate versus a 3rd party exchange like BTER?
Also looking for general advice if there other important things I may be overlooking?

Thanks.
