Don't fear the crypto

[nosaj]

Not only am I brand new to the gray market, I had never used crypto as well. I joined a few discords and observed for a bit.
Some groups have very detailed instructions on how to pay with crypto and people online who are very helpful.
If you put on your thinking cap and actually look at it.....it's not complicated at all.
Needless to say, I had to give it a go.
Monday I placed 2 orders with 2 different vendors.
Today(Thursday) I already received my order from Chimera peptides!!. My other order from a gray discord will be here tomorrow (Friday).
Positive experience for my first crypto/gray purchase

Welcome to the darker side ;). Dont forget to do some third party testing.

This gives me hope I'm an overthinker, and then procrastinate, then psych myself out and turn away from it. I really want to give this a try, as I believe I'm going to need a fairly large amount for my research, and I don't want to go broke lol

@WisGal64 once you take the steps...it's a breeze.
Going this route could help with some research that I thought would just be too much $ to justify (like ss-31 for example). It also helps with the "need" to fill up your freezer🤪

@nosaj would you be able recommend a clear resource or primer on getting started with crypto - I see references to cold wallets etc related to buying peptides so I want to set something up that is flexible for that purpose.

[nosaj]

Most discords or sites will have detailed instructions for the type of payment they accept.
Here's how I do it:
Open a Robinhood account and link to debit card.
Download exodus to use as your crypto "wallet"
Purchase crypto(BTC, USDC, ....etc) on Robinhood.
Send crypto to yourself on exodus.
Send from Exodus to vendor's wallet.
Just need to determine their wallet.....they will tell you to send on ethereum network, bitcoin, or similar.
Screenshot your "tix id" for the transaction # and send in email as proof.

It's relatively quick and easy.

@nosaj do they still make you wait 10 days before you can send out a significant amount of eth after kyc? I know coinbase does.

@Randy said in Don't fear the crypto:

amount

No, but I already had Robinhood set up. The day I downloaded exodus, I was able to make instant(almost) payments

[nosaj]

I had Robinhood set up, not the crypto sharing part
