Best place to buy btc? - Lemmy.World

It seems like everywhere is asking for my ID multiple times and there are multiple international companies involved. I thought the whole point of blockchain was decentralised so why canโ€™t I just buy btc without jumping through a thousand hoops?!? I tried using bisq but it seems more geared towards traders and you need btc to buy btc :( any help would be appreciated.

Reconsider. Crypto has been outed as a scam for almost a decade now.
Crypto and Bitcoin are not the same.
Please explain how bitcoin is not a cryptocurrency.
I suggest reading this article and jump to the โ€œWHAT ABOUT BITCOIN?โ€ section, which explains this concept of their differences.
Bitcoin, Not โ€œCrypto,โ€ NFTs, Web3 Or DeFi

Youโ€™ve heard the buzzwords: Web3, NFTs, DeFi. But what do they mean? Compared to Bitcoin, pretty much nothing.

What a garbage piece of advertising. Bitcoin isnโ€™t cryptocurrency because itโ€™s better than those other cryptocurrencies. LOL.
Bitcoin is not a Venture Capitalist controlled, pseudo-decentralized scam. There is no CEO. The rest of crypto are all scams or were built to โ€œfixโ€ a utility that didnโ€™t need fixing. Only the money supply and its ownership needed fixing, which is why Bitcoin was created as a permissionless, immutable, decentralized, and deflationary currency. Unlike all fiats, which have been grossly debased in recent years through manipulation by bankers.

Youโ€™re just arguing itโ€™s a better cryptocurrency.

No, youโ€™re still missing the point. Bitcoin is the only one that was built out of a self-less, cypherpunk cause, to allow the dismantling of central bankerโ€™s grasp on peopleโ€™s financial sovereignty. The crypto that spun up after bitcoin are all garbage, save for maybe Monero.
