Bitstamp is ok as long as you deal with EUR, not sure how their USD side is. The thing with an exchange like this is that they keep asking you silly questions in order to know more about you.

People are being asked things like how much crypto you plan to trade in the coming months or years, what the source is, if you can point them to addresses your coins are stored in, and the list goes on. It's horrible.

I'm not sure about LBC and their hunger for your information, but at least you're doing peer to peer business, which is better than subjecting yourself to an exchange like Bitstamp or Coinbase.

Coinbase is not an available option for my country but knowing the reviews of it I don't think I'll go for them even if they were available. Well I can't really tell the sources as seriously I have mixed up everything. Earned crypto by doing services to others then traded them they are all mixed up now xD so I guess it is not worth the hustle. And was thinking to trade with their USD pair as that is what I've got atm.

At least before LBC had not asked for single information, you could go and trade there freely without giving your ID. Ofc some traders might ask for an ID but you don't have to go through them in order to buy or sell.

Yeah my point of view was a bit the same in the past for BIG exchanges but wanted to try something different. Guess it is not worth it.
