Reply To: Where / how to acquire bitcoin without an exchange and no KYC

[Jason]

Thanks for the above info; I have investigated several BTC sellers/networks selling via ATMs and US retail stores, and have found the fees to be expensive – 8% to 25%+ – depending on network and location. Also KYC requirements are highly variable and vary by network.

What about https://hodlhodl.com/ for non-KYC options? Any experience with their platform? Are their sellers trustworthy?

Finally, is BTC earned via mining subject to KYC? Might this depend upon the mining pool provider? Any recommended mining pools?

Thank you.
