For me, there is no difficulty in buying bitcoin. Now it has become very easy thanks to a lot of exchange sites. You can buy coins for a few seconds

I don't think that it's really hard to buy the bitcoin but there are some terms or rule and regulation to buy the bitcoin as show some I'd proof that you are not a fake person and have some knowledge about bitcoin how to buy it.

Each location have their own bitcoin store the various is every time they permit bitcoin transaction on your country.For case in point : some place forbid bitcoin usage or even against lawLuckily I have my very own regional bitcoin which enable me to convert bitcoin into fiat in haste
I think that even if we live in a place where bitcoin is banned, buying bitcoin would still very easy due to many reason. First of all, bitcoin is dencentralized which is based on the blockchain net work. Therefore, no one will know that you are holding bitcoin unless you tell them about that. You can use paypal or credit cards to buy bitcoin from many online foreign merchants without any problems

Why you don't use a normal exchange?

You just need to confirm you ID one time and that's it, isn't so hard to buy bitcoins...
There is a lot of option for people to buy bitcoin nowadays. Becasue there is a lot of exchanger that can offer bitcoin . Yet the point is the price of bitcoin now is to hing and people could not afford buying bitcoin in this state. So for me the nest thing to is to just find a way that you could actually earn bitcoin si that you have anytime that you do not need to buy bitcoin. You will just need to work hard for you to earn it.

Because if its easy to buy bitcoin then people would love to buy bitcoin with their black money make it white.
In India if want to buy bitcoin then we need to verify bank account , Passport and Permanent account number (PAN) card, Then they will open account to buy bitcoin online.
Most of the people I told about Bitcoin don’t really get into it because they lose interest when they hear the price. So, I stopped telling people the price of Bitcoin. When they ask me, I just say “bitcoin is a good source of income, but got to research that yourself and know whether you will be interested or not” it’s all left for them.

Buying bitcoin was difficult in early days but today any one can buy bitcoin and that too with cash also. I think you have logged in your localbitcoins account after a long break and thus they asked you to verify your identity.

I have not really bought any bitcoin in a while, i have been mostly trading this last year.  but i have been trying to buy today from localbitcoins and bittylicious and it has been a real challenge.  they want photos of me holding cards on localbitcoins and on bitty they need about 4 different forms of id, what is going on. 

this is seriously restrictive to anyone wanting to get into bitcoin,  like its meant to be pseudonymous but if the gate ways into bitcoin dont allow that people will be put off.    Huh

Here in Philippines it is not that hard to purchase a bitcoin as long as you have money. We are using the apps coins.ph then we could buy bitcoin instantly but fees is much higher than other wallet but anyway we will have our bitcoin instantly. So the site is safe but quit expensive.

What kind of payment strategy are you striving to use? I never ever had any problems making use of banks deposits or experience to face trade, if you are striving to buy bitcoin with paypal be ready to confront lots of troubles and terrible charges, there are tons of scammers and people want to safeguard by themselves.

I don't think that buying bitcoin is hard because bitcoin is not that rare on its supply and we can still buy some bitcoins in the market and as long as there is an exchange like coinbase then there wouldn't be a problem in buying bitcoin because we only need to create an account in that wallet and buy bitcoin directly without a problem.
The point of the others is the price, why it is hard to decide to buy a bitcoin even the price is high. The problem is the capital, since bitcoin become popular it's price become high so others need a huge capital to buy a bitcoin.

Your right that it will buy in some exchanger. First of all you can't buy a bitcoin if you have no local currency or dollar and how you make it? Some user put a local currency in their own wallet then buy the bitcoin. It is also a problem because some user like in the province has no chance to buy in store like 7/11.

Ya I think Price place a major role in buying the bitcoin. If you are going to brought the bitcoin means you have to some fees for the Miners.For example, if you spend the dollar to brought 0.1 bitcoin means,you only get 0.08 at your wallet. I.e the cost for the transaction of dollars or any currency to Bitcoin.
No doubt the price of bitcoins gives Goosebumps at first sight but that times are changing now if you know what I mean. The bitcoins and all other crypto currencies are going through dip now and that gives some relaxation in buying them so now is the right time to invest.
! This is the right time to grab bitcoins when they are showing some dumped in the price. Weekends in my opinion are the best time to grab bitcoins when they dump in prices. Besides the crypto currencies are the latest trends of the world and we must try to invest into them for safe future.
It is hard for some people to buy a bit coin because they are not well aware of it. They don’t know about crypto currencies much and how they all work in the digital world. What they can do is to get familiarization with these currencies and start investing in little capitals and then trading them.

First of all it's hard to earn bitcoins today. Each piece is important when comparing it with gold today so people are careful about holding their bitcoins. But there are other possible bitcoins for exchangers. here's why we can just buy bitcoins and it's easy to withdraw one click you just transfer it to your bank account. So do not worry about the sellers' demands as they are also taking care. I have no other meaning here

it could be just for legality and identify who the owner of the bitcoin is because it is possible to avoid the criminality of this world, maybe like that
Though bitcoins give great freedom to users but using great technologies can track down bitcoin users. In a way, this good otherwise people will start using bitcoins for negative things like money laundering etc. Even the corrupt politicians can sue bitcoins to hide their corruption.

Looks like this is old topic but would love to give suggestion about localBitcoin. This site surely is now very old and you don't need to upload any photos of you holding your cards, (lols) as the process of submitting your government verification documents has become very easy now a days. Anyway moving forward from localBitcoin now there are many ways to buy our bitcoins with simple clicks and even no verification. The exchangers are getting advancement in payment system and you can buy with your cards easily. So I don't think that this is major problem now a days.

I also have used localBitcoin for a while, but still at the moment most of the exchangeres are asking verification. Still it doesnt take a lot of time to upload your ID and take a photo  Smiley approx 15min

The "hard" part is dealing with fiat currency.
Here is how to buy bitcoin.


1. Set up an account at a licensed exchange in your own country. Never trust an unlicensed business! Use your real identity. If you try lying about your identity you are going to get your account locked and you may be unable to recover your bitcoin. Exchanges MUST follow AML and KYC laws. They will turn over your info to the IRS, They will not help you if you lie. That's just business.   

2. Fund your account from a bank account. You can use a credit card or PayPal, but it will cost more and involve more entities. Since this involves fiat money it will take days to clear in the mail. Bitcoin is fast, fiat is slow.
Once it does clear you will have dollars/Euros/whatever in your account that can be used to buy bitcoin. At that point you can buy in a variety of ways. You can place a low bid and hope someone comes down to your price or just buy at current market price. Note that you are now also set up to sell coins.

3. Move the coins you buy immediately.  You will want to have a wallet synced on a secure computer. As soon as a trade is confirmed You should send the newly bought coins to your wallet. Until you have your coins in a wallet that you have sole possession of the private key, you do not have bitcoin. It is possible for the exchange to go out of business or be crooks. Get that money under your keys ASAP! Same is true selling coins. After a sale for fiat do a bank deposit into your bank account.

4. Record everything. Keep careful records of how much you paid for your coins. When you sell or spend them you will owe taxes on any gain you see. In the U.S. typically you will owe 0% - 15% of the profit you made, depending on your tax bracket.

I think it is because you can buy huge amounts of bitcoins that are non-reversible. There are many bad guys out there. Someone could simply use a stolen credit card and buy large amounts of bitcoins. Once the coins are sent to the scummer, there is no way back. That's why sites want to verify you. Paypal isn't much widely accepted when buying coins too. Paypal is in the buyer's favor, and you can easily get your money back using paypals system, but the seller won't ever receive his btc back.

Nice to hear a additional information about bitcoin buying.It's nothing hard to buy a bitcoin now.Their are lot of website which gives you additional bitcoin for your money. If you brought a Bitcoin with high amount of money means, the transaction fee for the bitcoin is also low.
