rkbabang- It seems hard to avoid exchanges outright as to buy a crypto one must use an exchange... right? The only other option I know of is a crypto ATM.
i have been reading lots and learning and playing around with a tiny amount just so i know what's going on. still a big philosophical thing for me to see how the government couldn't just come in and say no more crypto... trump could just tweet tomorrow he's going to outlaw crypto and this thing could free fall IMO.... hmmm i haven't been convinced how it could be completely independent of government.
