If a seasoned exchange like Bter won't make a qualified on & off ramp in your eyes, which one could?
Bter has been forthcoming and recovered well from their NXT hacked. Now they are facing their second crisis but yet again they are forthcoming with updates. Bter has a good following of Chinese community. Bter was a big exchange for bts before the hack. If Bter does well, BTS does well too.
Bter has real world licenses that could be used to perform fiat <-> bts and fiat <-> bitUSD/bitCNY ie on/off-ramp. If BTS buy out Bter, it gives a big boost to bter (ie increase confidence in their finances) and a huge marketing buzz to BTS (finally a on/off-ramp!). This solves a big problem for BTS. Win-Win.
Agreed. BTER as on/off-ramp would be epic. Their sevice was always good and reliable.
Snapswap, Coinbase, and Circle are all better on/off ramps than Bter in my opinion. Coinbase and Circle have professional KYC protocol and allow instant btc buys with credit card with daily / weekly limits. Snapswap uses KnoxPayments to let you make instant bank deposits of $300 per day at 1% fee from more than 15 major banks, onto the ripple network in USD.snapswap. And Snapswap also lets make withdrawals from the ripple network directly to a paypal account.
