Hello, do you know any place to buy Monero for online payment ? It seems that LocalMonero is winding down and I don’t want to use some big exchanges like Coinbase for obvious reasons. Thank you very much!
I’ve used https://changenow.io/ several times to get XMR from LTC or vice versa. It’s always worked for me, but I’ve heard of people’s transactions being held if they were large amounts, so exercise caution.
This doesn’t solve the problem of buying the initial crypto, which may or may not be difficult, depending on your jurisdiction.

I’ll miss the ability to buy using cash-bought gift vouchers as that seems the only straightforward way to preserve privacy.
Retoswap.com. You download the software similar to Bisq and you can transfer Fiat into Monero. Just this month it’s had its first five million dollar month. And so it’s increasing all the time.
Monero has a disproportionally large energy usage and footprint on the environment. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41893-018-0152-7
Please consider less wasteful alternatives. Every bit help, it’s about keeping earth safe for human life.

Alternatives like actual cash, proof-of-stake cryptocurrency, or even EMV.
Most alternatives aren’t completely anonymous payment methods, but Monero’s anonymity isn’t worth wasting so much resources.

alternatives are totally worthless for the only useful property of cryptocurrencies, which is private payments
“Every bit helps”
Not if it defeats the purpose of whatever you’re doing in the first place.
Runs on the TOR network, fully P2P.
https://retoswap.com/ is the functioning instance of Haveno DEX. The main project does not run a live network.
You may have an ATM near you.
what is the process of using these, generally? (I assume there are variations)
are there ATMs that work without a camera pointed at your face?
I haven’t explored that yet as here is none nearby. There aren’t many vendors of these machines.
Do these accept cash, or only ATM cards? (The latter would link your transaction to your bank account, of course.)
What do they give? A printout of a wallet address?
