It seems like everywhere is asking for my ID multiple times and there are multiple international companies involved.
I thought the whole point of blockchain was decentralised so why can’t I just buy btc without jumping through a thousand hoops?!?
I tried using bisq but it seems more geared towards traders and you need btc to buy btc :(
any help would be appreciated.
What about doing the KYC using a fake ID?
I really would suggest Monero and you can pick some up from localmonero.co without KYC (ID).
I agree with the saying that “Monero is what Bitcoiners thought they bought”.
All the people here are talking around the bush.
Nobody mentions a solution.
One that worked for me is mycelium . It has multiple ways for exchanging crypto, one of them is a local personal market. (Balance > Buy/Sell bitcoin > Mycelium Marketplace)
But the rates are obviously worse than the regulated market, where you have to jump through hoops. But that is also in the app.
Have you tried their “get your first BTC” room?
