Is it worth it to wait 2 weeks and like also the possible additional costs with shipping and all that? I would not buy voucher either way cuz I don’t like amazon.

Also, how did you buy it if you have?

edit1: forgor to add the last paragraph.

      Several ways:

      1. Sell a good/service on XMRBazaar.com

      2. RetoSwap.com is a software you download that is a peer to peer decentralized exchange. You can pay others with whatever payment methods are supported PayPal, Zelle, Cash App, Amazon gift cards, cash-in-mail, etc.

      3. Centralized exchange (not recommended) you can give all of your KYC information to a centralized exchange such as Coinbase and buy something like USDC on there and then use an instant swap service such as trocador.app to convert the USDC into Monero.

      4. Mine it with your CPU: This is the slowest way but also the most permissionless

            (Different person than you replied to) Does that have a positive return, vs the electricity you gotta use?

            No agenda for the question. I sincerely have no idea about it. I’d venture a guess tho, that if there was a positive return, ppl would do it at scale and drive down the return. And maybe they’d do it in places with very cheap power.

      second this, used to buy them with kraken but it now requires an ID which kinda defeats the whole anonymous purchase

        Sure kraken knows you bought moneo, but once it’s off their servers they don’t know what you spent it it. It’s like going to a ATM, the bank knows what you took out, but not where the money went.
