    Bittrex only deals in crypto, no fiat - afaik you have to buy your BTC or ETH from somewhere like coinbase/gdax (or Kraken) for cash and then transfer the cryptos over to bittrex to buy altcoins.

    You need to buy with fiat somewhere like Bitstamp and them you can transfer your coins to Bittrex if you want to trade or invest in Altcoins. If you just wanna buy and hold Bitstamp or Coinbase are two of your best options.

    Use coinbase but don't buy Bitcoin if you're trading on Bittrex, too long transferring times, ETH is the way to go to make transferring funds

    Yep, as said to trade on bittrex, use something like coinbase to buy eth, and transfer eth from there to bittrex buy whatever you want on there then.

    from experience form dealing with bittrex get verified and account upgraded before you transfer anything.

    if you fail verification you will not be able to withdraw anything.. and support is terrible.

    my verification failed on name mismatch and i'm waiting almost 6 weeks so far to get it sorted,
    support have not contacted me once..

    i made the mistake of transferring bitcoin before getting fully verified and not my coin is stuck with bittrex.
    it's a waiting game now for me.

    My enhanced verification on bittrex was manually approved today, after creating a support ticket a month ago.
