1) Crypto ATMs might be a good option for some. They require minimal info like an email or phone number below a certain amount usually (plenty of sites to use burner emails/phone number) and you can pay with cash. Any popular crypto works, ideally one with lower transaction fees, because you can just swap it to Monero after:

3) Be an Amazon proxy. Buyer doesn't know your address, Amazon doesn't know you're being paid in Monero.

2) Sell something or work for it directly:

4) If someone you know already buys crypto off major exchanges, doesnt care about KYC, and doesnt plan on stopping - ask if they will be your crypto dealer. You get no-KYC crypto, they get a small premium for doing it (presumably). Win-win.

love all these options - thanks for putting in the time 🙏🏼 lots of different things on this list that i didn’t know about

i’ve always been a bit sketch on atms for the same reason as listed in original post around p2p trades - feel like they’re a bit of a honeypot setup where the cam on the atm is 110% taking a photo of your face and storing it somewhere

i like the idea of selling something or earning something tho - supporting that circular economy

No problem

As for the ATM cams you can get some anonymity by wearing a hat, sunglasses, and even a face mask (not as weird to do anymore thanks to the pandemic). Maybe even a full balaclava or ski mask in the winter 😂

I also like the idea of selling stuff or working for it directly if you can

haha - the full balaclava or ski mask won’t work for the australian winter i don’t think 🔥

i’d love to work to earn some xmr or sats - but, unsure what i have to offer as a data scientist 🥴 need to learn something that’s more freelance friendly probably 😅
