Damn right, this is the main reason why it has not gone mainstream. You need to go through a KYC process everywhere just to buy some coins. Coinbase, localbitcoins (unless you get the really expensive ones), it needs to be made easier
Still confused why that sites ask people to do KYC before can buy coins in their platform, if everything like in past, maybe bitcoin will always be anonymous. Pros and Cons will come but we don't have any choice to follow it.
