If you absolutely want to avoid that, there are probably bitcoin ATMs around you that charge around 5%. Some will charge more, but you can check beforehand. Otherwise, Coinbase has been doing KYC stuff like that for a while, your account was likely just grandfathered in. KYC isn’t why I wouldn’t use Coinbase though, they’re just shitty overall and I don’t want to reward that.So I recently got a new debit card and had to switch it up for my coinbase account and now its saying I have to give photo ID to verify and be able to send btc. When i first made my account a while back I’m almost positive i didn’t have to do that. Does anyone know if that’s safe to do or a way around it?
Thanks
Hmmmm ok I’ll see if there’s any in my area. Do you think it would be safe if i had to upload photo id though? And if i can ask what do you use if not coinbase?def_natty" pid='34876' dateline='1545498395:

Like SoCo said, there’s nothing illegal about what you’re doing. Just don’t send from your Coinbase to your provider. I’ve never used Coinbase, just ATMs and CashApp (which I prefer). Like I said, if you go the ATM route, keep an eye on fees.VLhUSTNv" pid='34878' dateline='1545499144:

No matter where you buy your BTC, it’s good to have a solid security plan in place. Like the others have said, there are no legal issues with buying BTC over the clearnet. It’s what you do after that which matters.Hmmmm ok I’ll see if there’s any in my area. Do you think it would be safe if i had to upload photo id though? And if i can ask what do you use if not coinbase?
Thanks
I don’t trust tumblers, but that’s a personal thing and you should decide for yourself. The one thing I would add is don’t use the same wallet address forever… they cost literally nothing.def_natty" pid='34879' dateline='1545500269:

The process, as I see it, should be the same no matter who you use to get your BTC:
This, in my opinion, is how it should be done, for maximum security. Using this method, you can give the clearnet BTC trading platform your entire life story – it won’t matter. You disconnect yourself from the coins once you pass it through the tumbling service and on to your darknet wallet.
- Purchase BTC over the clearnet
- Send it to a clearnet wallet
- Send coins to an intermediate clearnet wallet (optional)
- Send coins to a BTC tumbling service
- Using a darknet connection, route the tumbled coins to your darknet wallet
- Using the darknet, send your tumbled coins to the source from your darknet wallet
