Acquiring bitcoin thru peer-to-peer exchanges like Bisq, RoboSats, Peach, etc. is the way to go. Unfortunately I have a dirty KYC stack. Should I prioritize exchanging my KYC sats for dollars via P2P to help provide btc liquidity on these marketplaces? Or am I creating an accounting/tax reporting nightmare? Looking for a small way to contribute to the global KYC-free movement. I would then exchange my new fiat back into bitcoin but in a privacy preserving way OBVS! Love the show!

If you have not read it yet, take a look at The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin. The book is about the founding of the federal reserve.
