If the government are strict about taxes, P2P won't enough to solve the problem because you still receive the money through banks. Exchange to cash is risky though, criminals can threaten by pointing their gun on our head.
You are right but your post add zero meaning to this discussion. He is not asking what unfriendly country is but asking if the tax and draconian approach of the government can lead to people using P2P that are not centralized. The thread is not about a debate of what that should be called unfriendly or friendly.
I already answer the question.
P2P, even you doing that without KYC, could arise banks suspicion to investigate your incoming funds. The worst thing to happen is they freeze the account and ask the source of every incoming transactions. You have to prepare to answer that, even you answer it's a gift from friends,
there's a gift tax, except you sent up to £3,000/annual.
That's why I said the best decision is exchange to cash, it's not recorded in banking ledger.
There would be a need for a trusted vendor, in that case, and to find such a person is no easy task..
