Bitcoin Forum

Hi guys!

What cryptocurrency exchangers do you often use?

if you're talking about "Anonymous" exchanges, i'd recommend to use P2P ones, such as Localbitcoins[1] & Paxful[2]. They offer high-privacy trading solutions, but the tradeoff here is that you'll usually pay very high fees.

If you're willing to submit your ID, and have a bank account/VISA that can do SEPA transfers etc, i'd highly recommend you use Coinbase[3], or Bitstamp[4]. You'll pay almost no fees compared to P2P, but then again, you lose all privacy.

I have been use some centralized exchange most of them in the top 10. But I have some issue with rising transaction and withdrawal fees, thats why i used to find some fresh and innovative exchange i recommend XCH4NGE to Buy and Sell Bitcoin ,XRP,Bitcoin cash, Litecoin,Ethereum just visit  ( https://www.xch4nge.com )

I may have trust issues against individuals, but I use "proper" exchanges to intermediate the trades.
Most are from my country, the others are Bitstamp and Bittrex. There was also Poloniex and many smaller exchanges too in the past, but I don't really use them lately.

Should be noted that this person is likely affiliated with said site, so take anything he says with a grain of salt.

I took the time to register on his exchange, and goddamn, it's a horrific mess. Best part, after signing up to this (what i think is a sketchy site) they dared to ask me for my ID/Passport.

Seriously, what are you thinking?

changenow.io
I'm using it near a month without issues. Fast exchanges and bonus tokens as a gift for each exchange, I like it

You'll lose all privacy and open yourself up to local tax laws as well.

In the end it depends on the coins you wanna trade. I personally have used cryptopia, bittrex, bitfinex, yobit, crex24, coinexchange, tradeogre, tradesatoshis, crypto-bridge, nova exchange and some more - if you just wanna trade some coins i can recommend you all of these exchanges. i have read about issues from other users who traded some bitcoins of volume and they had troubles with some of the exchanges.

you can anonymously exchange crypto on changenow and in case of kyc just refuse to pass it and get a refund

I have never use the exchange site before but what I know is that every exchange site that does not offer crypto to fiat exchange and still ask for their users ID/passport doesnt worth it. However, every crypto exchange have there own benefit with advantage and disadvantage but I like coinbase,binance and luno.

the only ones I know are localbitcoins and paxful but they want you to submit ID to them and a minimum deposit of 0.05 btc to sell on there

Hi, I work for XCH4NGE and the only people asked for ID yesterday was the people that tried to cheat the system by joining a task with a specific reward to grow a specific community.

Instead we had others pretending to be from that country to claim the rewards. We challenge what we believe the ones to be fake who made the most comments in the India telegram group to show there ids in one hour with a selfie and we pay them $10 more to prove we was honest and not misleading the public. Some Indians users did this and actually got the $10. Some could not due to not being Indian.

So my thinking is being such an affluent and powerful member of bitcoin talk you have stated these comment knowing your position of trust will affect the platform but what you have not said is if you are one of the people that should not have joined the task and did for the sake of a few dollars and got caught out.
If you are from India kindly upload your adhar card if not take down this fake review. Just in case you do not know the website: www.xch4nge.com

Well I am using XCH4NGE since last 2 months and it's one the best P2P exchange with low trading fees and no fees on deposit. Good thing about XCH4NGE is KYC is optional so you have control over your privacy. When you sign up just fill your basic details and then log out and log in than your wallet gets activated and you are ready trade. I got to know about XCH4NGE from its bounty campaign and the team behind the project is really helpful. Indeed they are new but they have huge planning for XCH4NGE traders in future.

Also did you take part in task campaign for Indian community members??? They were promoting their project in India with some task campaign and they had mentioned clearly the task campaign was for Indian members only. A lot of members signed up from other country tried to cheat and pretend that they are from India. One of the member was threatening their admins that he have Bitcointalk Hero Member account and he will see them on forum( are you the same one?). Admin of that group gave challenge to upload documents to few peoples and those who did it they got payment right away. I think we should not take wrong  advantages of our position and ranking on forums in this way by threatening project?

Try lookong for a local crypto exchange that is established legally in your country. Often times they are commected to their own local crypto wallet which I think is a added convenience for its users. The reason for having a local exchange is of course uf something went wrong with their service you could easily ask for legal assisstance against a domestic company, if something happened to your money on a foreign exchange chances are your local authority would be of no help on retrieving your money.

This post has been created by a newbie who wanted to promote an exchange which post has been removed. So, posting here may increase your post count but that will not be helpful for the Op as op has not created the post to take help.

You have to choose-confidentiality or security. Providing your ID if you have nothing to hide is not a problem. Many exchanges require traders to go through KYC and this doesn't surprise to you. Safety and reliability are a feature of many projects.  . I'm only welcome the  activities to protect the team from scamers that whanted to  get minimum paymenttried and to deceive the system by  VPN

Several things are wrong with this comment:

1. Full KYC is not required for use of the actual platform except in the UK
2. The only people asked to complete KYC were people who were suspected of misrepresenting their identity, potentially putting other users at risk.

If you have not been asked for ID by XCH4NGE, please remove this comment.

Whats wrong with you buddy its very inapropriate for you to comment a nonsense and very judgemental do you think you own the forum you are bullying other users your using your rank to bully and abuse with the lower ranks. I didnt see anything wrong about the post its just a normal recommendation like others do just like your post with link s it means we cant trust your post too! your a damn idiot  a bully in this forum. use your head sometimes did you notice its very obvious hes wearing a signature for the platform he was promoted it means hes a bounty hunter where on earth did you get that weird idea that the simple post which not mean a lot. an then hes affailiated wtf!

Hello im not a Part nor Affiliated of XCH4NGE Platform that i was promoted. Im a Bounty Worker and im doing a simple task which is promotion. Im only responding the Thread according to the topic. Just like you its clearly seen even you is just promoting 4 links from the exchange you like and you trust. I think it has no problem with that its our own decision and no one has the right to stop us "Except the Moderator if they are notice that we are out of topic," I believe that XCH4NGE Platform is very transparent and great support and Its my choice stop bullying other users We are all equal in terms of rights at these forum.

I would suggest that you place the question in the Spanish local board (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=27.0) too, in order to get opinions from people that have used exchanges while living in Venezuela.

Additionally, you may take a look at Buy Bitcoin in Venezuela (https://www.buybitcoinworldwide.com/venezuela), but I would try on the Spanish board to contrast with testimonials from Venezuelans.

Hello!

If you're in Europe. You could try Bitpanda. We're the leading retail broker for Bitcoin and 22 other cryptocurrencies.

Obviously, I am biased. But we really do make it easy to buy.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Totally Agree just abusing his authority in this forum by undermining others with fake stories. I think this is a real life example of FUD from a user.

Further to this not sure why the moderator doesn't do nothing about it.

I also used them, it is really very simple and convenient service. No registration and good exchange rate.

Lmao @ all the people here who are defending Xchange. Apparently none of you have even bothered to visit the site.

Today i registered again to see if i was wrong yesterday, but i'm definitely not.
Not only is the site sketchy, but you need to pass KYC to buy or sell anything.

They allowed me to just fill in some random garbage phone number and private info, to which it then asks me to upload my ID. https://imgur.com/a/Wv7msIj

No, thank you.

Paxful (click for link (https://paxful.com/)) is extremely simple to use and has decent support in my experience in case things happen to go wrong. You won't need to submit any form of KYC for most BTC transactions depending on what payment method you're using. Generally speaking, you're going to get the best rates with a bank transfer and less with a reversible payment method like PayPal and the least with gift cards. BTC sellers accepting reversible payment methods like PayPal also usually ask for an ID of some type on the site (though there are some with worse rates that do not require an ID), but generally speaking the site is excellent for a mostly anonymous fiat to crypto conversion.

The Currency Exchange section of this forum (click for link (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=53.0)) also works as others have mentioned here, though you'll need some reputation if you're trying to buy BTC for a reversible payment method like PayPal.
