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

For me I don't see any hard time of buying a bitcoin. Because in my wallet you can already buy bitcoin and I don't need to buy in some exchanging sites. If I were you just use wallet that offers bitcoin and aside from that you can store it too there and it is hassle free.
