If you want to buy bitcoins safely you can buy them with a Blockchain account. Many users are using it because they trust this wallet. You can maybe not buy a lot of bitcoins, because there is a limit on it. If you have a locally stored wallet then you must do some research how to buy bitcoins with that. I heard once that a guy was scammed just because the dealer didn't pay back.

I thought it was funny that the closest bitcoin atm to me was located inside of a run down old gas station a couple miles from my house! Who would've guessed!

I buy bitcoins on exchangers. For example, bestchange, topmonitoring, localbitcoins, a bot in Telegram, and it suits me, it's fast and convenient.

I buy through local exchanges, the only problem with that is to put your KYC and verify them and until then they wont let you buy or trade. But if you are ok with KYC then I guess its the best way to buy or sell.

Used to go through localbitcoins wayyyy back using alipay vouchers, but have now progress to using local exchanges which are much more convenient, especially in the fiat aspect. Most exchanges now connect to bank transactions or even credit cards, and this makes purchasing of bitcoins really easy.

I buy bitcoins on exchanges like e.g. Coinbase, The Rock Trading or Kraken. Just pay to transaction fees and prices between them, it could change a lot.

I earn bitcoins through signature campaigns. Through that I store it in my wallet and when the price of bitcoin is high, I sell them and buy if the price is low. Sometimes when the price of bitcoin is very low I used to cash in money to buy bitcoin from remittance centers. But I prefer storing and holding my earnings.

I buy bitcoins on the gdax. It is cheaper than buying on coinbase. It is the same company but less fees on the actual exchange. Gdax is a little more confusing to the eye but, its the same thing. I noticed that there are some exchanges that have higher volumes than gdax/coinbase. I am from the United States and my top choices would be Bitfinex, Bitstamp, or Gdax. These are the current top volume exchanges that you can buy bitcoin with usd.

Coinbase. I know many people aren't big fans of buying through Coinbase and Gdax, but with these companies if you're not doing anything shady such as sending to coinmixing sites (directly) or sending to gambling / dice sites (directly) then they're fine to use. You also have to adhere to their KYC policies, but that's common place in America.

I've used Paxful and stuff like that, though I'm not a fan of the big fees on their.

Coinbase / GDax is where it's at.

I have been suggested to use localbitcoins.com for buying purpose. As a beginner to the bitcoin network its good to get used to the btc to USD. At present I'm concentrating much on earning bitcoin rather than buying as I live with the small monthly income.

Why not. It is the preferred service since it is easier and they also accept bank transfers.
The real problem with localbitcoins is that some of them are too much greedy and they take the price up the roof. Hell, they are even expensive than website wallets sometimes. The good thing is you could post your own price and you will be the one deciding to whom you will buy.

In my country BTC has not been legally recognized, so there are intermediaries that open BTC exchange and I will liquidate the cash and vice versa I can also buy BTC at there

There are lot of ways to buy bitcoins but I personally prefer localbitcoin. It offers very nice rates and free escrow of your funds. Localbitcoins is not a seller itself, but it is a platform where buyer and seller meet and execute the trade.

In buying bitcoin an individual need to be extremely careful so as to avoid being scam. The best place I do buy bitcoin is from trusted, tested and reliable exchangers. I also buy from close friends I know that have bitcoin since there is no Bitcoin ATM in my country.

When I need some bitcoins for trading I always buy through coins.ph because it has a lot of options, I can just deposit money from my bank account, remittance center or any 7eleven stores to my coins.ph wallet and just convert it in Bitcoins. For me this is the fastest and convinient way to buy bitcoin here in my country.

Which stock exchange sells Bitcoin. To my knowledge it isn't listed on any stock exchange till now ???
By the way, I buy from local exchange that allow me to directly buy for fiat money (Indian Rupee). The fees is negligible and I can buy instantly using Net Banking. It has become easy process to buy/sell Bitcoins in India now.

I absolutely agree that, there are many ways to buy bitcoin. You can buy bitcoin through trading and there are some ATM's where bitcoin is available. In addition to that, I think you also buy on any localbitcoins and I think the best way to buy bitcoin is in trading sites or market.

I don't really buy bitcoins I only cashout Bitcoin to my local currency sometimes.
If I want to buy Bitcoins, I find a seller and I buy Bitcoins from him, I do not met him all the transaction remains anonymous.
However, There are some exchanges running where I can buy Bitcoins easily without any problem.

yes that is a fact that there are a lot of ways through which we can buy bitcoin, and i think that with the passage of time it is becoming more convenient to buy bitcoin. To me although a lot of options are available here for me which i can use for buying bitcoin except the Bitcoin ATM machine which is currently not available in my country, but still i am using local bitcoin for buying bitcoin which is more convenient and reliable for me to buy bitcoin through.

I buy bitcoin through the poloniex . Poloniex is an online money trading website in where you can invest your bitcoin. You can also buy a bitcoin in here and then wait until the value of the bitcoin becomes higher and after that you can also sell your bitcoin and gain so much money as an interest to your investment.

I usually buy through bitcoin trading websites or through resellers who sell more bitcoin. Then I moved it to the big trading floors like Poloniex and Bittrex.
