Hello all, I was wondering if I would get denied when I try to verify my account at Bitstamp or Kraken because I'm only 17. And what is the easiest way to buy BTC under 18?
because SEPA/Wire transfer don't allowed to under legal age in bank.
some banks allow you to have a visa debit card at the age of 13/14 dependant on country etc, so if you are old enough to have a bank account and old enough to wire transfer funds from it. then there is no issue with some services. localbitcoins.com for instance will have no issues with this. but read the terms of service of bitstamp and kraken
