Monero + Distributed Exchanges will go a long way to fix these kinds of online payment problems.
Unfortunately, at least near term you'll still need fiat-tether "on ramps" to convert your local currency back and forth to tether before you move them to a distributed (or at least a non-KYC) exchange to Monero, then sending to your local wallet, then use online.
- xvector 5y agoYup. It’s worth checking out LocalMonero [1] and the Haveno DEX [2]. The former already works and lets you buy Monero without relying on a KYC exchange. [1] https://localmonero.co/ https://localmonero.co/ [2] https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno
- CapricornNoble 5y agoThanks for sharing Haveno. Sounds like it's not a mature app though. I would recommend Bisq as a more refined alternative: https://bisq.network/ https://bisq.network/
- xvector 5y agoYeah, Haveno is a WIP fork of Bisq for Monero that doesn't require BTC as a middleman and will have a much better UI/UX for newbies. Bisq doesn't even work on my M1 Mac, and the interface is kind of a nightmare.
- liquidify 5y agoNot touching tether with a 10 ft' pole. Stay away from that junk. Use USDC or something else to on ramp.
- not_really 5y agoYikes. Why not get a little usdt while you're at it.
