If you have an account on Reddit, ask this question on UK Reddit community, and locals in the UK can help you better.
https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinUK/

Buying and selling is easy, the harder things is how you can obey to tax regulations in the UK.
Global cryptocurrency taxation policies.
Quote
United Kingdom: Capital gains tax applies to cryptocurrency gains, with rates ranging from 10% to 20%, depending on the taxpayer’s income bracket. Business-related crypto income is subject to corporate or income tax.


Cryptocurrency regulations around the world.
Thanks for the suggestion. I just found some Reddit threads on the topic but the comments are few. So far, Kraken Pro and Strike(never heard of them before) seem to be most popular.

P.S: I’m not bothered about HMRC.

I too had this problem looks like most of them are fraudulent site when they ask for full identification including national working number.
Just because an exchange request for KYC doesn’t mean it is a scam. It just so happens that exchanges in the UK are heavily regulated.

Why not use Bisq, which is a simple decentralized Bitcoin p2p exchange platform, since the major BTC exchanges you want are the platform with no stress of registration and KYC.
In the meantime, for your information, no crypto p2p trading platform can be scam free, but you're in safe hands if you follow the exchange trading guidelines.
I agree, Bisq would be the best solution in these cases, decentralised and no KYC, just P2P exchange.
But even here on the forum, you could buy Bitcoin directly from sellers; there are loads of them and they have lots of positive feedback. Another idea worth considering.
Thanks for that. I am downloading the windows version right now. I will let you guys know how that goes.

What is the best UK exchange to buy my Bitcoins. Binance doesn’t work here. And Etoro registration process is just too stressful, too much personal information being requested. I just want to buy Bitcoins in the simplest, scam free way. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

But if you ask me to recommend altcoins way you go fit invest in, I no get answer for you because altcoin business no be wetin perosn dey sabi finish today e fit favour you tomorrow e fit cast.

Congratulations to Crystal Palace and as a neutral in this game I believe this is a Happ ending. This season already we have seen Newcastle, Harry Kane, bologna win a title so since it is a season for first timers then it is right Crystal Palace won.
To bad city could not at least salvage their season but right now the should focus their attention now on the remaining English premier League matches and ensure they win both of them.
I had a feeling that the game last night will go the way of Crystal Palace seeing how well they performed on their way to the final. It was clear to see how much determination they had in the tournament and knowing Manchester City were mikes away from their top performance level I thought they will lose and it happened that way. Luckily Crystal Palace will have a chance at winning the Community Shield when they go head to head with Liverpool.

Many Man City fans and bettors are furious with the team's performances this season. Compared to last season, Guardiola's team has experienced a significant decline in performance. While I won't blame any particular party, Haaland and some other players, like KDB, declining performance suggests that Man City's management will need to regenerate next season.
Hey are right to feel frustrated by their team’s performance especially after losing the only chance they have to win something out of the season. This season City suffered a huge decline in performance which resulted in them finishing the season without a trophy. Hopefully next season will be different with the transfer window as a huge chance to revive the team.

As if Manchester City struggling to stay at the top of the league this season wasn’t bad enough, they lost the only hopes of winning something this season despite the much struggles this season. I sure hope they have learnt their weaknesses and shortcomings this season and will work to improve in the summer ahead of the coming season.

The champions league this season has been very interesting and full of surprises and I keep asking myself if there are still more surprises to come in the champions league final. I will be supporting Inter Milan to win in the finals against PSG, they are better experienced, composed and balanced in all positions.
8  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - 2024/2025 on: May 19, 2025, 07:03:35 AM
It's never to surprising thing to seeing Crystal palace winning the FA Cup against Manchester City though most persons predicted Manchester City to win the trophy but unfortunately it didn't work as predicted that's why football seems unpredictable until full time FT.
I believe this trophy will mean a lot to Crystal palace after several years of trying, winning it against team like Manchester City is also a thing of Joy.
Congratulations to Crystal palace it's never an easy task Winning a trophy against team like Manchester City.
Considering the last match they played in the EPL you will definitely give the straight win to Manchester City. Meanwhile, I was looking out for a goal from Eberechi Eze today. His impact in the recent matches against Manchester City is extraordinary. Funny enough, he was the only goal scorer today which gave Crystal Palace the FA Cup trophy. I will also give respect to the manager and the rest of the team. They all did well.
Once again Congratulations to Crystal Palace, they deserve it.
What most people thought would be the result was Manchester City lifting the trophy, shockingly the underrated team became the best team of the night. Congratulations to Palace once again, indeed this trophy means everything to the club and it’s supporters and to crown it all winning it against Manchester City was a good way to win their first ever major trophy.

Summing up AC Milan’s season so far I can say their season has been terrible. They sit at 9th position currently and lost the only hope they had to make something out of the season when they lost the league cup title to Bologna few days ago. AC Milan need to reshape and restructure their squad for the coming season.

Chelsea are very close to achieving Champions League qualification. They need to win their next game against Nottingham Forest because it might be a deciding game for the Champions League qualification campaign, it will be a really difficult game because Nottingham Forest are also in the race for the top 5.
11  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2024/25 on: May 19, 2025, 06:18:03 AM
What a majestic season for Ante Budimir being there between super top class players is something with you can brag about. And 20 goals in the season for a team like Osasuna is a BIG number.

Talking about Osasuna, what happen with Atletico Madrid, seems like they lose the north and they are in one of their worst performance now.
Ante Budimir’s stats this season are impressive, he has scored 27 goals for Osasuna in La Liga and Copa del rey, and two goals for the Croatian national team also making four assists for Osasuna this season. In last night’s game against Espanyol, Budimir scored the first goal for Osasuna. His performance against Espanyol yesterday was impressive.

Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal are in talks for Rodrygo from Real Madrid.

Rodrygo to Chelsea would be such a talent wasted. As for Manchester City, as long as Haaland is still fit then I doubt the other striker would really take the spotlight away from him. Alvarez couldnt do it so Rodrygo most likely couldnt as well but that leave him with Arsenal huh, well its Arsenal though so there is nothing much to say there lol

Either way he is getting a big move for sure, alot of clubs would want to pay him decent wage just to get his signature
Rodrygo to Chelsea really? That is a joke. With all the many signings Chelsea have made lately and are yet to revive their squad and season. Rodrygo to Chelsea will be a disaster. Some other sources speculate that Arsenal are interested in Rodrygo, I can’t confirm if that’s the case however I think it would make good sense if he joins Arsenal this summer.

I strongly believe that this Champions League trophy will be won by Inter Milan. Inter Milan are well organized and composed enough defensively and when they attack. If they can defeat Barcelona which happens to be the most dangerous team to play against in the Champions League this season then they can defeat PSG.
14  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Africa Football Discussion || Current Topic: World Cup Qualifiers - CAF. on: May 19, 2025, 05:24:39 AM
So far so good, I'm impressed with how African players have turned up for their various clubs this season. I've said a lot about Victor Osimhen already who recently won their Turkish Cup and should most likely win the league come Sunday if they win. Mo Salah could also end up as the premier league player of the year IMO with the recent nominations. Furthermore,  the 30 years old Desser playing for Rangers is also the highest goal scorer for the Scottish league. The absence of Victor Boniface still bothers me. A massive change from last season. WYT?

For a long time African players have been impressive for their various clubs, putting them out and making history. This season happens to be that more African players are taking on same historical significance in their respective clubs. I expected Victor Boniface to be part of this list but it seems he is slowly dropping down the pecking order lately, I pray he gets his game together.

The funniest part is that English people claimed that Premier League was the toughest league in the world and plenty of great teams there, unlike other leagues where there are just one or two good teams.

Well, the reality was seen this season where PSG beat three different premier league teams to get here. They beat the champions of Premier league Liverpool, they beat the second place Arsenal (so not like 10th or whatever), and they beat 6th place Aston Villa (albeit that was the easiest one).

So as we can see PSG, representing Ligue 1, has shown the world that ligue 1 isn't that bad and they can beat any team from Premier league, and they did it this season. I am sure that we are going to see them play wonderful at the final game as well.

Yes, PSG has represented the French league very well this season but that doesn’t mean that the French league has become better than the English league because they defeated English teams but note that there were four English teams that made it that far in the Champions League and PSG were the only side that made such impressive results in the UCL so I can say that the English league is still better.

2 matches that will confuse bettors and I prefer to focus on the Chelsea vs Man United match. As I see it, Man United and Spurs are nowhere near the relegation zone and surely both teams are hoping to stay in the EPL and also have a date in the UEL final. On one hand, Chelsea has a match against Nottingham after today's match. I assume Chelsea can lose this match and will get a win in the match against Nottingham to prevent Nottingham from climbing to the top 6.
Just as expected Aston Villa and Chelsea proved how important their matches were to them and for the season as they showed their opponents that they have something to fight for in the league even until the last day. They have secured their spots for champions league football next season if Manchester City and Newcastle fail to win their games.
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - 2024/2025 on: May 19, 2025, 04:48:03 AM
I had a feeling that Crystal Palace will finish victorious in this game I even told a friend that Palace will win and he said it was impossible because City have had a bad season and will want to finish it with winning the FA cup but the reverse was the case as Crystal Palace were able to secure their one goal lead until ninety minutes. Congratulations to Crystal Palace for winning their first major trophy.

And the possible lineup of Real Madrid including new transfers and rumored players, will be like this?

Source: The most expensive Real Madrid defender in history!
Source: Real Madrid sign Dean Huijsen from Bournemouth for a club record deal
According to that possible line up, Rodrygo might be the bench guy unless if Alonso decides to go with a different approach. Arda Güler seemed to be gaining much favor layely. Also, Alonso might lean more into 3 center backs so that whole back set up might change.

I prefer seeing what he will present in his first games before we speculate about the starting 11. Also, the transfer market is just getting started.
I also think Xabi Alonso will come with a different approach from what Ancelotti used in his time. I am also anticipating his first three games especially the pre season games when he officially becomes the club’s first team coach. Few days ago I read about Xabi preferred three centre back system but I am not optimistic that Xabi will bring a fresh system to the team with him.

Done deal! Huijsen to RM is real! 50 million fees, 5 years contract, and received more salary at Madrid. Some PL clubs offered far greater than Madrid, but he only wanted Madrid. He's now in the medical test, and hopefully, he can pass the test smoothly.
Happy with Madrid finally gets a new natural CB. However, they still need to sign more players.

They still need to sign more CAM, CB and wing backs.
Good news to Real Madrid supporters that they finally got their target. Real Madrid have been pushing hard in this transfer window, they want to get their targets in early and are moving fast with the deals. This Huijsen deal has barely survived a week and the deal is already done. Trent is also on his way to Real Madrid what could Madrid be cooking this summer?

Accusing a player of being sluggish or playing poorly is simple although there are situations when timing and fit are the only elements at play.   Even though Sancho wasn't the ideal fit for Chelsea's current requirements. He is still a talented player. For a number of reasons, clubs move on, so Chelsea would be prudent to rethink their choices if they believe they can find higher value elsewhere.
Chelsea have decided on what to do in regards to Sancho and they have decided not to sign him on permanent basis and will pay Manchester United 5m because they will be going against the initial agreement. Sancho will have to look for a club at the end of the season, I believe Manchester United will be willing to sell.
