Why So Bloody Hard to Buy Crypto?

[Crypto24hrs]

Let me ask you when you want to get cash from the bank do you just walk in to the bank and the cash falls to your palms? I guess no is your answer, you must undergo the process of screening so it is with acquiring crypto, the problem is just a poor orientation and mentality which i am sure will change as time goes.

For me, it has never been difficult to buy bitcoin. I bought the first bitcoin through an exchanger 1.5 years ago. Now you can buy bitcoin in different ways and very simple.

It's easy to buy crypto if the person is interested in buying and if it's not illegal in his country.

Well for me, it's always easy as my country is open for innovation and it has supported crypto from the very start, in fact they grant license to our local exchange which gives us a easy way to buy and sell bitcoin, and it's through a lot of local banks and stores partnerships.

today it's rather simple to buy not only bitcoin but almost any cryprocurrency. you can use any exchange and buy what you want in several minutes.

But it's still hard relative to fiat. The fact that you even need an exchange is already a barrier since you have to first sign up to one and this involves all sorts of proofs such as proof of identity and proof of address etc (known as KYC). Then you need digital wallets which are an extra hassle. It's obviously not as easy as using cash.

It is many reasons I think. One reason is that it is a new system of payment completely. But also that the banks do not want to help users to get crypto for fear of the old system collapsing. You remember the news about VISA and MasterCard banning crypto transactions.

Bitcoin and other crypto currencies are becoming more accepted these days. 

Why then, is it so bloody hard for the average person to learn where to buy it?  Is it because it's considered "dirty money?" 

Your opinion?

I doubt any one can say that because what was bitcoin's first price and what was its highest value and if you can consider those two you will understand there is no limit price or a lowest price that bitcoin cannot recover because btc is a very volatile trading asset in the world and its price variation depends on the demand it gets from its investors, traders and users and we should admit that it has the most craziest users than for any other trading commodity so there is no limit for the price to decrease and also to increase

This is a growing market and its so easy to own cryptocurrency, just make sure its legal. Look for good exchange and put some money their and start buying bitcoin and other good altcoins. If you think the price are still expensive then better to wait but you might miss the cheaper price if you continue to wait for a more dump.

It may be very difficult with licensing in every country, surely all people know that even in almost every country they have the desire to buy bitcoin and other crypto currencies, in an easy way but it requires a process that is really not arbitrary, so that it is not misused by people irresponsible, so that's the reason why it's very difficult to buy bitcoin and crypto this year, even though some countries have supported it ...

Firstly you are not going to get bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies on the streets for sale, we need to learn how we can buy them.
Also it is not that difficult to buy bitcoins instead if you manage good relation with the dealers than you can actually buy bitcoins anytime.
Also coinbase, localbitcoins, etc makes it more easier to purchase bitcoins anytime with safe deals with escrow.
We just need some technical knowledge about internet and funds in our bank account and we can easily buy bitcoins.

[laredo7mm]

now everything is easy and anyone can buy it. many exchanges are available and support for many currencies. there is no reason for you to find it difficult to buy bitcoin

[alina345]

I know how hard it has become to find the correct information on bitcoin websites as people are fulling these websites with self-generated information. Many people have been misguided. Most of you get confused because you read one thing on a platform and it is quite opposite on the other one. It's better to search for a proper and authentic platform with the right information. With concentration and focus, you will find some good forums where you can buy bitcoins or any other crypto without any trouble. Dont't let the crowd misguide you!

I’m an average person, I’m certainly not a techie & I figured out how to buy bitcoin’s pretty easily. It really isn’t that hard.

[akram143]

It woud be really hard if you don't know all the fucking steps on how to do it, but bitcoin is bitcoin, it wouldn't be mainstream if its a crap.

It should definitely be a difficult situation for cryptocurrency because people will not interest in the investment of Crypto field will reduce more than before so it costs is the current value also to reduce little by little if it goes like this then we will last this field very soon.

And where you live that is so difficult for you to buy cryptocurrencies and what payment method are you trying to use to do it, buying cryptocurrencies with cash has always been very easy where I live and you do not need to do anything or to identify yourself but if you are using something like paypal then be prepared go have to go through a lot of trouble.

My opinion, i don't think it is too difficult to find where to buy it, if so, what are exchanges for? But I think the reason for some people not to easily trust or let go of their hard earned money for a certain cryptocurrency is they are not really sure of the would be status of the coins they wanna buy. like they have to think 100x to make sure they have chosen the right one to invest their money in.
