Re: People have a complete misunderstanding of Bitcoin.
It's time that we start to properly understand how we can totally bypass government and banking through privacy laws and rules. By going through public exchanges, we are sticking ourselves right into government. As a possible alternative, consider BISQ and BISQ 2.
What other alternatives might there be to using a public exchange? How can we turn media apps - like Telegram - into private Bitcoin transfer places that might 'push' Bitcoin into private use among a lot more people?
In some parts of the world, or in every part of the world per se, I think it's easier for most new investors to buy Bitcoin through CEX. I am not saying that CEX is the very recommended place to buy Bitcoin, but it has been a quick source of buying Bitcoin for so many people around the world, despite its risk. Most of DEX doesn't have enough liquidity; although I have not used Bisq, what I know is that the majority of people find it easy to use CEX.
I don't think it's possible to turn Telegram into a place to carry out Bitcoin transactions unless you have actually found a trusted person that you want to do business with. Social media is always a space filled with different kinds of scammers.
