It seems like everywhere is asking for my ID multiple times and there are multiple international companies involved.

I thought the whole point of blockchain was decentralised so why can't I just buy btc without jumping through a thousand hoops?!?

I tried using bisq but it seems more geared towards traders and you need btc to buy btc :(

any help would be appreciated.

Cash is op

How do I buy crypto? I know a lot of freelancers/digital nomads that get their salary in crypto, and I exchange it for them

If I could use cash I would. The sad reality is that they expect us to be a cashless society within 10 years

That will never happen. Lots of cities have made it illegal for businesses to not accept cash.

There will always be a population of consumers who are not able to open bank accounts. And there will always be companies looking to take their cash.
