Nostr Web Client

What’s the best way to initially fund a wallet from the “outside”?

One of the best peer2peer platforms is RoboSats. It uses the Lightning network (low fees) and all the traffic goes over Tor (you’ll need the Tor Browser) so it’s as private as can be.

Peach Bitcoin is supposed to be great but I think it’s only in Europe right now.

Bisq is a popular desktop application you can download and buy sats directly there.

Bitcoin meetups can also be an option! That’s in-person p2p so literally an exchange of cash for Bitcoin.

Hope this helps!

Any other good recommendations from the #plebchain ?

Sucks that localbitcoins is shutting down. Otherwise their are btc atms but they charge crazy high fees and are somewhat kyc. There’s a bisq competitor but forgetting the name right now.

Bisq is the best i find. it runs on the bitcoin network too. HODLHODL is a competitor just like localbitcoins was but its a website that has now been effectively suicided. Bisq is code. open source. peer 2 peer. cant be stopped unless everyone stops using it.

Was thinking of Hodlhodl. What happened to them?

they are still around. Have you tried bisq or hodl hodl? I find bisq to be a superier experience to all the others. the others seemed to have uniqe conditions for every offer, each peer with their own rules and process. Bisq uses consensus like bitcoin...all traders have to follow the same rules.

I’ve used bisq myself. You mentioned Hodlhodl suicided. Didn’t know what you meant.

sorry i meant to say localbitcoins...plus they ended up being KYC...pure garbage...there are many copy cats like HODLHODL, localswap, etc....i am sticking to bisq...bitcoin network, consensus, escrow, no KYC...never had a trade fail.
