Coins.ph is a great suggestion. However, only as your first step into the world of cryptocurrency. For example, did you know that on vertex.market, once you have registered, you can create a sell offer for any cryptocurrency of your choosing with a custom premium or margin? You can buy Bitcoin and sell it on vertex.market for 10% profit (for example), no matter the market price volatility, vertex will automatically correct your selling price

If you are a fan of using LocalBitcoins, then vertex.market is defininatly an option you should be looking into. Picture using LocalBitcoins for not only Bitcoin, but 1200 additional cryptocurrencies, that is Vertex! If you dont like the fact that you have to connect on a personal level with every trader on LocalBitcoins, you will enjoy the streamline services Vertex provides, everything is handled automatically.

I majorly use bank transfer and get to pay almost zero charges for this when dealing with peer-to-peer system of trade. The second is buying bitcoin with my altcoins. I don't use the other digital money.

If you're looking for a more private way of buying/selling bitcoin, while also minimizing your chances of getting deplatformed, try some P2P exchange like hodlhodl or Bisq network.

If you buy using a credit card or really if you have any interaction with the "legacy" payment system, chances that is private are very slim.

You have a good list mate but honestly, I didn’t experience to buy bitcoin on all the things you’ve mentioned. Coins.ph is very popular here in my place and maybe you can also include this platform, its great and very easy to buy bitcoin. So many ways for newbies to buy bitcoin, i hope they see those platforms.

I simply do not use any of the method mentioned above to buy Bitcoins.  Buying and selling Bitcoin is most easy and secure on any P2P exchange for me. Localbitcoins is the most trusted P2P exchange for me to buy and sell Bitcoins. It provides me the facility of buy on sellers price or place my own bid to buy Bitcoins and vice- versa for selling BTC. It also provides with the trust ranking of all the users there to chose from and also payment is instant. I believe P2P exchanges are the most easiest way to buy and sell BTC currently.
