Ive heard that there are bitcoins ATMS where you can purchase bitcoin and send it to your wallet there are also stores or retailers that supports bitcoin and sells it. Only if that country is legal with using crypto tokens as for my country is open arms with crypto currency and accepts bitcoin. If your country restricts btc then im afraid you can't buy it.

Some of my friends had a btc however we didn't' transact personally or we don't purchase each other bitcoin in person or locally it is against your safety and showing to your friends how much btc you had is not safe.

My best advice is only purchase btc in person if you truly trust that person to whom you're transacting with.

I was wondering if it's possible to purchase bitcoins in person? Anywhere in the world? Something that wouldn't leave financial records of my purchases? Making a deposit too would be good. Would anyone else be interested in it?

Well, somehow it is possible when it comes to making use of platforms like localbitcoin and if you and the person both come into agreement to meet up to make the necessary transactions.

So, yes you can purchase bitcoin in person. Also, in my country, I have actually seen some bitcoin exchange stores, more like OTC, where you can easily exchange bitcoin with fiat, although with some little fee though, and I see that as another easy way to achieve that. Asides these two, I am not really sure if there is any.

I do that in my country. Ever since I started making use of Bitcoin I have never bought it from exchanges, I usually buy in person. There are lots of local exchanges where I live, people that stays in stores and you can walk up to them face to face and buy as much Bitcoin as you want from them and they will just send it to you, straight to your wallet.

That way nobody knows if you bought a Bitcoin or not, all they know is that an amount was from one address to another and that’s it. When I want to sell I also do the same and get the money paid into my account by these people. I have even become friends with them and trust them to the extent I don’t have to meet them in person for transaction.

When you speak with words like this, It fears those who want to do business with you, completely hiding has no good intention.
If you want to do this and within a small limit of "less than $ 10,000", the easiest way is to buy gift cards through Cash and then sell those cards in this forum or through Localbitcoin & Paxful.
There are other ways, but this is the safest way

There are a few over the counter (OTC) exchanges around the world, depends where you live really.

https://numoney.store/sg is in Singapore, a lot of the US OTC exchanges only deal with 100k+ accounts for buying.

While its true that there are some advantages in trading btc in person, please don't forget that there's also some danger risks which is pretty much always there in every situation.

Here's a good guide to minimize the risks: Tips for local transactions

And just wanna add a few things from my side.

  • Reputable platforms which allows you to view their background is great e.g. localbitcoins/btctalk - has a trust system
  • Don't transact with a huge amount of money to a single person. You can just divide it in smaller parts and transact to diff sellers
  • Preferrably, bring a friend who'll watch from somewhere pretending to be a stranger, especially if the amount is somewhere between mid or high

Oh yea, localbitcoins has a kyc, but since you'll be doing it in person, you should prolly be fine since some leave their contact info's
You can also post an ad in your local board.

You can do it either in localbitcoins or in your local telegram groups you can find a person who is ready to do a trade with cash, in that way your transaction is fully untraceable. I have done a couple of times in my country but I didn't buy instead sold my coins for cash.

It is possible to do buying bitcoin thru in person, but this would be hussle because you neednto meet up a guy who want to sell their bitcoin to you that is why i agree to the mate above that you should join to the legit groups who are many trusted people selling bitcoin online or in localbitcoin.

There is localbitcoins. But what I usually do is to look for those people that are interested of buying in meetups through social networking sites. You just need to join a legit group/community on facebook that's related to crypto traders. What's really your plan?
You can also look for a person on Currency Exchange who might be near you.
