Hey good people. I am a complete foreigner to crypto world. I decided to jump on the only real cryptocurrency, monero, and I have a question or two, if that's okay.
-
nioc
seems like the correct channel so don't ask to ask

So, localmonero seems like the easiest path to get my hands on some monero. It seems SEPA EU transfer incurs the least amount of royalties. Do I have to pick a seller from my country? Or anyone from EU would work?
-
linero
Yea, I was already typing. I am a bit slow, sorry.
-
nioc
:)

I would assume that anywhere in the EU would be fine although I am not from there

SEPA is not quite EU wide. The set of countries is similar but not identical. Do check. IIRC wikipedia has the list.
-

Might even still work with the UK actually. Something the derange bunch might have failed to tear down...
-
moneromoooo
Of course, you got to keep in mind that if you send money, then don't receive monero back, you'll want to check with your bank first what you can then do.
-
moneromoooo
ie, would your bank be able to pull the money back from the other side, and what evidence you'd need to provide.
-
linero
Hah, it seems like you are right about the UK. They seem to be still in the SEPA circle.
-
linero
Right. Well, the sellers seem to have excellent feedback and history. That should enough of a guarantee, no?
-
linero
Of course, you can never be too careful, I know.

<naphtha:kyun.host> localmonero admins usually handle scammers pretty well
-
m-relay
<naphtha:kyun.host> the xmr is in escrow so no one has access to it until its released it or if a dispute is started and the admins decide who gets the xmr
-
m-relay
<naphtha:kyun.host> theres no auto-release afaik
-
linero
That's reassuring. So, that should clear everything up.

And my second and hopefully last question: Any opinion on revolut? I have only started knowing about it like two days ago. But it seems like a popular paypal alternative amongst crypto bros.
-
m-relay
<naphtha:kyun.host> compared to paypal its a godsent because at least they provide a really good ux while robbing you if you break their tos
-
m-relay
<naphtha:kyun.host> i think crypto trading is against their tos because they have their own crypto thing but ive been doing kraken withdrawals on a revo business account for like 3 months and they dont seem to care
-
m-relay
<naphtha:kyun.host> im not sure if only crypto trading as in speculation is banned or crypto as a whole
-
linero
I thought they have a whole section in their app for buying and exchanging crypto... I think?
-
linero
Regardless, I am not seeing any immediate red flag about them.
-
m-relay
<naphtha:kyun.host> yeah last time i checked it was some garbage where they didnt really allow you to buy any real crypto that you could send to any real wallet they just had a crypto investment thing
-
linero
Oh well. Thank you for the answers!
