Can you simplify a bit? Can I take my USD dollars and buy crypto on your platform or not? If not, how would I obtain crypto and leverage those solutions that you support?
- tigereyeTO 6y agoShapeShift partners with Banxa to process debit and credit card transactions. This allows you to buy BTC directly with USD, and the BTC is delivered directly to your own wallet with keys that are in your control. Note that Banxa performs their own KYC for their own MSB services. Once you have some crypto, you can then trade it for other crypto with a few taps on your smartphone, or clicks in your browser. Search your smartphone's app store for ShapeShift and give it a whirl yourself :)

Is the idea that I can simply buy Crypto from another exchange and then send the hash to another wallet on your platform (where KYC isn't performed)? > Search your smartphone's app store for ShapeShift and give it a whirl yourself :) No offense, but I won't. It's hard for me to trust a wallet that clearly (or technically unclearly) is operating in a grey area of the law.
