Isn't Localbitcoin just for Bitcoin and Ethereum? I can just buy those easily on Robinhood. I'm looking for more hard to find stuff.

No matter if you could only buy bitcoin and ethereum because if you have bitcoin, you can send the bitcoin to many exchanges, so you can use it to trade with USDT or altcoin and try to make a profit. The most important thing is that you can have bitcoin or ethereum without a problem, and the next thing will be up to you. You can hold your bitcoin in the other wallet if you don't want to trade.

When I make money from crypto, I make it through work. It is not possible to make money without hard work. You also have to Hard work for make money online or from crypto. Why should I spend my hard earned money without my need. I think the money earned from crypto you can hold by buying bitcoin or in any other known currency. I think it will be useful for you in the future.

   I have a friend who is in crypto-currencies a long time, I buy Bitcoins and Ethereum directly from him with my county currency,
later with some part I buy some alt-coins I like. I invest on monthly basis, from every salary, and I try to work and earn some extra
and that's going good.

What do you call 'high fees'? Coinbase, for example, charges 3.99% fees for card purchases. It isn't to high because Coinmama charges a 4.9%-5.9% fee on each purchase. Some users like LocalBitcoins.

If you do not get information that is not clear from your question, you should follow the forum from your country. maybe there will be more special questions and adapted to the situation in your own country.
maybe if it's not on the forum then you will receive general information, which is always done by all crypto followers.

I cannot provide information that might help you in more detail because the circumstances in your country may not be clearly known to me.
there are many exchangers available and good enough for you to be able to transact, but if it suits you, of course you decide. You can search here: https://coinmarketcap.com

This is what we called in-person cash trading, the method where you can buy/sell cryptocurrency in person. But did you know that even this is also a very high potential of risk transaction? There is a lot of news with regard to this transaction like people getting robbed and scammed after having a transaction in public places or after having a meetup. You need to be more precautions on this and protect your self especially if you are in the big transaction. Remember those valuable assets are very prone to theft.

I suggest buying/selling Bitcoin on a trusted and reliable third party exchange platform or those who have P2P service in any crypto exchange or much better ATM machine.

The best way to buy cryptocurrency is through local exchanges, so you can buy bitcoin in your country's currency. Since you live in
the United States you can buy through Coinbase, Bittrex and Kraken. The three exchanges are quite popular and reliable, for the
transaction fee is also not too expensive.

Hi.

I have been trying to find a good service/bitcoin wallet to buy cryptocurrencies but haven't been able to find any. They either don't have the coins that I want to buy or the app doesn't work in my region (United States, New York) or their fees are too high or the app just isn't any good.

Can anyone recommend some good options for how I can buy cryptocurrencies? What are people here at this forum using?

It's been taking too long trying to find one that works well enough to use. I just want to start buying coins already.

You have several options. The first one is use your credit card and buy from binance directly, the second is using paypal and buying crypto on KuCoin. With sepa bonific with coinbase pro or in alternative you can use crypto.com service and their card.

[Kulkhan]

I will request you Don't Buy any others Cryptocurrency  without Bitcoin. And For Buying It You can use Credit card, Bank Accounts And any others. You Also Use Trusted Cryptocurrency Exchanges Like Binance,  Polonix,  And so on.  You can Easily Buy From Exchanger.

There are many options that you can do and are not limited of course, as the colleague above informs is part of what you can do. all you need now is whether you understand what you are going to do. of course it is better to learn first if you do not understand clearly so it is not wrong to determine what is appropriate and you can do with your money when you have to buy coins.

there can be analyzed carefully before stepping, so that no regrets occur in the future. learning to understand is absolutely essential before proceeding further.
You can search and study and adapted to the desired needs, you can use references;

Localbitcoins is never a good site for someone who have no knowledge about crypto currency tradng as the OP and i believed him buying BTC from a green trusted account on this forum is still saver than using localbitcoin cause the reputation of sellers is important there.

You have to know what you are looking!

We already deciphered that you can buy BTC and ETH, I think that any other currency that has an acceptable margin of capitalization can be found in anyway popular Exchange that exist, even some of the most popular give space to startups that are just starting.

Some BTC ATMs allow you to buy a few other cryptos, I do know there are such "BTMs" in NYC and in lots of cities around the USA.  Fees are high!  Typically BTM fees are 7% - 15%, some higher.  BTMs want (at a minimum) your cellphone number and a name, their limits vary.

Just today I tried out a service from LibertyX, who now offers a "buy BTC for cash" at CVS and 7-Eleven stores.  I paid a total fee of some 1.9%, CVS charged me $4.95 while LibertyX charged me 0% fee (they are running a special until July 31).

LOTS of KYC, takes some time to wade through.  Details of my experience:

First and foremost, please do not buy cryptocurrencies without having any knowledge or not really having any underlining reasons why you are buying. Considering your post, I can see you are very new to the crypto space. I will suggest you take some time to gain enough knowledge about the entire crypto space before deciding to buy any cryptocurrency. That might save you a lot from loosing your money.  You might get scammed if you don't have enough knowledge in this crypto space.

It is recommended that you use Bithumb Global
NO KYC, which supports many countries, can use credit CARDS to buy bitcoin and is friendly to beginners
I just signed up for bithumb Global and used it for a while
I hope it helped you,
 

[Negotiation]

I don't usually support KYC sites KYC scams most sites The best advice for buying cryptocurrency is to use binance kucoin or Bittrex. This is a great place to buy crypto and there is no need to look for alternative sites that support each country. Fees are much lower here and most people on the forum use binance You can use a coin base in case of using a bitcoin wallet Bitcoin is much safer to keep.

[peterurb]

I am using P2P exchanges, cause you don't need KYC which is good for privacy and safer for you, cause no one can hack to servers and stole your ID. Here are higher fees from people, but it is really fast and you can get your crypto almost instantly.

If you are interested in safe crypto-fiat exchanges you can use Coinbase, but it has extremely huge fees, even much bigger than a P2P.

[rehash]

If you decide to go KYC route, at least make sure you don't do it on dubious exchanges.
I'd recommend: Kraken, Bittrex, Bitstamp.

[mezzaluna]

There are a lot of ways on how to buy Cryptocurrency. First, there must be some applications that are developed within the country that is able to buy Bitcoin and convert it into a few Cryptocurrency. Second, you can learn about exchanges and practice "buying and selling". Buying Cryptocurrency if you are new is not the best move based in my point of view. We must first see that how would some parts of the Cryptocurrency industry really works and gain knowledge on that part.

[Klaiser]

Well, i use a bank product called Blackcatcard to make crypto-fiat exchanges. The exchange rates you can see in the app as they are changing online but always seems ok for me. the reason i use this method is that  i have 2 products in one: prepaid debit card + hot crypto wallet, not to create more and more accounts for different platforms.
