While custodial and KYC compliant services are rapidly expanding in influence, and sometimes even “forced” by governments, there are still ways to use/trade cryptocurrencies as they were supposed to be used.

Satoshi Nakamoto released Bitcoin in 2009, after first publishing the Bitcoin Whitepaper earlier. During times of financial turmoil, a new payment system appeared out of nowhere, and the most tech savvy individuals started looking into it, mining it, and contributing to the revolutionary code.

P2P cryptocurrency exchange LocalCryptos is now offering Bitcoin Cash trading with its services.

LocalCryptos P2P Escrow Exchange

LocalCryptos and other P2P exchanges offer escrow services to facilitate trading between buyers and sellers without having to deposit funds.

LocalCryptos (formerly known as LocalEthereum) started as a P2P exchange for Ethereum trading. Two years ago, it added support for BTC and later LTC and Dash.

As the Bitcoin Cash user base keeps expanding, apparently no exchange can ignore it for too long. LocalCryptos has now added support to Bitcoin Cash trading and offers escrow functionality to interested parties.

How LocalCryptos works:

The website recognizes our IP and instantly prompts us with the closest traders to our location. This option can be turned off and search globally or within selected nations in the list.

It has a system of ranking its traders according to feedback from those traders that interacted. However, it is also important to know the risk and always conduct due diligence before trading.

When you buy crypto, you select from between 40 available payment methods, contact the seller, and make the arrangements.

The seller will send the cryptos to an escrow wallet service LocalCryptos provide and when they verify the payment, they notify the exchange and it will release the escrowed crypto to the buyer.

Beware of scams and especially offers that look too good to be true. There are always scammers lurking, and they try to lure investors into deals that may look like an opportunity.

In Conclusion

Cryptocurrencies are empowering the individual by giving absolute control to the owner of the funds, with the use of our private keys.

The “coins” are always inside the blockchain, wallets are services that help us access the funds without having to code commands.

The private key gives us access to move our funds to other addresses without censorship, with no third-party supervising and authorizing transactions. There is no other person in between. Our transactions are transmitted in the network, miners pick them up and create a block that permanently records our transaction and add it to the blockchain.

Centralized exchanges are custodial services that control our crypto funds.

I’m always explaining how important it is to withdraw crypto out of any centralized service unless you are day trading.

The crypto we hold in exchanges is not our crypto, but a promise that the exchange will act according to our wishes.

Blockchains are trustless environments, immutable, uncensorable, and permissionless.
