I believe that there is nothing wrong about having a face to face trading of bitcoin. It is cool indeed. You'll get to know your market and it is easier to explain the goodness it brings to a person. And besides, it can be used sometimes when buying as some foodchain or stores have been accepting bitcoin as well to increase their market.

I've been using BTC for a while. I've been using it at exchanges, to trade altcoins and to order goods over the Internet, but I've never exchanged BTC with someone in front of me. At a store or between friends, or family. This despite having had long conversations about BTC with various kinds of people, and attending a few meetups.

I have never exchanged bitcoin face to face. I think this is unnecessary. If strangers want to trade bitcoin with me, I will ask a reputable person to mediate in this trading

I know some people that traded bitcoin face to face, because they have enormous deposits and this way they are able to avoid  big commisions from withdrawal.

I never had an experience transferring Bitcoin from person to person, and I don't want to do that since it will have my identity known and might end up lure so many bad people.

I did not experience exchange bitcoin face to face. Because I cashout and buy bitcoin with my country wallet which is coins.ph. But if you have a deal to other person that you did not know better to see him to the personal because it is safe to secure your bitcoin or money. I don't want exchange bitcoin to people I did not know so better to face to face or meet up.

for now I have never redeemed bitcoin face to face because I'm too busy and maybe I'm too lazy to get out of the house so I'm more likely to use bitcoin to make payments at the exchange using the available websites.

Severally,  I have had to sell my Bitcoin face to face with stranger I barely knew on the internet.  I try to be as brief and short as possible when I 'm transacting that way!  I would have concluded my terms of trade and communicate procedure for us to take in carrying out exchange!

I did it twice if I am not wrong. It was in 2016 when a friend of mine wanted to gamble with bitcoin but since he was a new member at that time and don't have any account yet at my local exchanger, he asked for my help. I sent him satoshi and he gave me some money directly from his pocket.

I often redeem my bitcoin to my facebook friend from 2012 until now, safe and trustworthy transaction to my money. For face to face I have never. I prefer passing online.

No, I have not had this experience as well. I know the guys who never had any problems with this but I am not sure that this is something which is very safe.
I tried this long ago as one of my friend told me that she needs money so she exchanges bitcoin, to be honest according to me it is not good, I have exchanges my bitcoin face to face at that time, but as I said I did not likes it so I don’t change too many bitcoin safe to face, I know it is safe and easy but I want bitcoin to become famous and stable in my country.

I never did it yet, in my country BTC and others crypto is not regulated as currency so is not allowed to use it for transaction to buy good and service. Here BTC only for digital asset like commodities and stock that only allow to trade it.

I also didnt had this experience, it is because all of us are hikkas and we dont have friends Smiley Only those anonumous here
In previous time i was mostly using banks for exchanging my crypto currencies in to bitcoin, but after banning bitcoin in banks now i am converting bitcoin through fact to face communication without involving banks or any other third party.

Yes, I had. It was 2 years ago from now. I exchanged bitcoin face to face. I gave him money and he gave me bitcoin. That was really cool. Maybe it is normal now in many countries, but that time it wasn't. Most of the people thought bitcoin is a very bad thing, their intention was like "Your son is using bitcoin? Then protect your son! He is going to ruin his life"
It was parents thought about bitcoin. So, that time, face to face bitcoin exchange was too hard..

I am afraid to personally deal with another person.  Shocked  Also, another factor is that it's really hard to find someone who wants to trade face to face as the main purpose of bitcoins is anonymity which would not be achieved when we do face to face deals.  Cool

I also have the same thoughts, bro. First of all, you never know whom you will meet. Then, secondly, all the anonymity of the deal in this case vanishes.

and let just say all of the identity can be cover and not been publish anymore that is why if you may have some report to make for you cant file , so as long as you dont know the person dont make a deal on it unless you have been know this or if this is your friends for but if not make a way of protecting your btc there are a lot of people that are greedy on btc.

I have not had such a case, because it needs to be changed to dollars a large amount of cryptocurrency.
