 Is Strike KYC? If yes then its the worst place to buy BTC. 
 It's slick design wise and works well I think that's what he means but yeah KYC also.  
 Get over it. P2P bitcoin is incredibly rare and hard in big quantities. I'm not buying a few bitcoin from a dude on the street corner with cash, sorry. 
 Cool. I get it from my post office with cash. I make a KYC free account on Bull Bitcoin then use cash to buy vouchers, then use Bull to buy BTC and send to wallet. Whos buying from a random dude on a street corner?
KYC free is simple. 
 Another way is KYC free ATMs. You just need to know where to find them. Many dont ask for ANYTHING.  
 Those are getting rare 
 Very rare yes!  
 I have one, but it has about a 23% premium. Pass. 
 That is a myth, you can easily buy hundreds of thousands of dollars worth no KYC using Bisq  
 Pass. 
 Bisq blows anymore. so buggy, bloated, slow, and I certainly don't trust some random dude for arbitration on a 100k buy.  
 You don't buy it all at once of course. But in the timespan that it takes for a KYC buy to "settle" you can accumulate a 100k buy. Slick UX is for newbs, once you're past that stage it's a pretty shallow reason imo 
 Who said anything about slick ui? I didn't.

I said that bisq sucks. Old Java codebase, is terribly slow, uses mostly single threaded, many payment methods need kyc anyways, low trusted escrow/mediation. 

For 50 or 100 bucks, sure. But I have robosats for that.

There is zero chance or reason I would use bisq for large sums of USD. 
 Then what would you use? 
 Also #bisq2 is in development

 Oh wow, p2p.  Lol... and yes I realize I can use a VPN. But still.
