We don't recommend Coinbase because they've clearly lost their way. Not only do they sell and promote scams, they are not good data stewards of your information. More evidence is below.

How do I recommend buying Bitcoin then? I recommend nostr:npub1ex7mdykw786qxvmtuls208uyxmn0hse95rfwsarvfde5yg6wy7jq6qvyt9 and nostr:npub1tftc33ttam85wraffce62cgtvvjrmttquqlv6a0agtfm5nl4vues82xar5 .They're Bitcoin only and allow easy direct deposit purchases and withdrawals to cold storage.

Maybe add bisq or peach in case someone is willing to go non kyc.

Pros and cons for bisq and peach?

I onky have experience with bisq. I believe peach is not in USA. Pros are P2p bitcoin exchange. Cons are whatever orders are out there are what is available. Might not always be what youre looking for.

Thanks πŸ€™

A new user is not going to use Bisq. I specifically did not include RoboSats or Bisq on purpose.

Ah i didnt realize this was only for a new user.

If people are still using Coinbase at this point, I would assume they're new to Bitcoin or need to expand their horizons a bit. Going from Coinbase to Bisq/RoboSats is a large jump. Plus, I don't like these services for smash buying. You need to plan out an afternoon just to make a purchase.

No recommendation for Cashapp?

CashApp is a good recommendation too. My cousin that I orange pilled a few months back is using it actually.

But they may thank themselves later

100% Derek

Add #[4]​ and #[5]​ to that list

I can't recommend them because I've never used them, but if you have and can state that they're noob friendly, then absolutely.

Yes, they are Europe based, KYC-free or light KYC, Bitcoin only and easy to use. Recommended for Europeans. Unfortunately we don’t have #[2]​ here. Not sure if #[3]​ is available in Europe?

πŸ«‚πŸ€™πŸ»πŸ’œ Thank you.

River is also bitcoin only and they support lightning and Nostr

I have never used River, but if you have and can personally recommend them as being noob friendly, then thank you.

I think this is fake news lol

Bloomberg reported it a few days ago. And even if it is fake, Coinbase is still horrible. It's a Shitcoin Casino. Stop using Coinbase. Coinbase is not πŸ€™πŸ» or πŸ«‚.

For everyone in Europe https://relai.app is the best choice ✌️

I’m happy with pocket bitcoin

Seeing bad reviews on the Play Store. You had problems with it yourself? And does it really have zero KYC?

Zero KYC up to 1K ✌️

But you are transferring from your bank account, right?

You can use wire transfer or credit card.

Are they both connected to your name?

Bitwage has been serving me well. Extremely quick, it usually hits my wallet before I get the email. They can allocate to different wallets, too. Domestic and International payroll solutions, in biz since 2014.

Seems like a great service for overseas "gig workers" or freelancers, too.

While not "bitcoin-only", they're legit, IMO. Worth checking out, payday is more exciting than ever, lol.

I utilize the Coinbase debit card, and fund as needed, literally fund and spend. I do it for .5% rewards in BTC. I withdraw that once every month or two. I know there's others similar things out there, but it works for me, for spending fiat and getting corn in return....
