RE: 010 - The Coinbase Conspiracy

in #bitcoin7 years ago

LocalBitcoins.com you can literally buy/sell BTC in person (or online). It's all peer to peer transactions and it has a very good reputation along with the sellers on the site. You can pretty much use whatever payment method you want. That being said, I've never used it but I feel like it's the most transparent exchange out there.

Thank you for the information

though it is pretty expensive when compared to BTC exchange sites, unfortunately :(

I did that for awhile. Like it was mentioned you pay a premium for those coins.

Every seller I dealt with wanted money orders/BOA/Chase cashiers checks or other globally liquid assets. Not to mention they were rarely in the country they advertised and buying from the same person 4 times in a row gave me four different people to send cash to in three different countries. Ukraine x2, Romania and Georgia (Russian Georgia). But it was fast and easy and mostly anonymous.

Word of advice: If you do anything 'unusual' with your BTC/LTC/ETH get TOR and Tails. Disable java. Use different electrum accounts for transfers between the two operating systems. Rinse and repeat.
