Hey guys, I understand that Bitcoin is decentralized and doesn’t require ID or permission to use. That part is clear to me and I’m not questioning that. But what I’m still trying to figure out is how to actually get Bitcoin and stay anonymous if at some point you most likely will use fiat to get it.
No way in most cases, but some P2P arrangement still exists in physical cash. No one would know how that transaction happened, but there are too many disadvantages to that.
1. You don't know the intention of the other party who is bringing the cash and supplying you with the Bitcoin.
2. You might not be able to transact as much as you want. Imagine the person who wants to buy $500k worth of Bitcoin. The money will be too big and risky to carry even if the other party is sincere. It's too much risk for the two parties involved. Unless you guys do it many times (in batches). But that is a waste of money and time.
