Titanium Gear Industries (domestic source)

My "debit" card won't work with CashApp, so i looked around at other ways to buy crypto.

i came across Local Bitcoins. Talk about paying out the ass. One guy accepted iTunes gift cards in exchange for BTC.

Easy enough, until i saw that his trade rate was 19:1. Which means that for every dollar in BTC that i want to buy, i have to pay $19.

Oh how i laughed as i closed the browser window, vowing never to return to Local Bitcoins.
19:1! That's a hell of a markup, I think we should make the sources eat those fees! How you feel about that Titter! @TitaniumGear (TGI) How bad you want our business?
Like I said before, it's the name of the game we play. Ridiculous fees, holds, and now we have people claiming the damn qr codes sending our Bitcoin to some geek squad hacker sitting in mommy's basement, for fuck sake.
 
Same here for a few years
It worked for me for several transactions, then the last time I tried to purchase it put the funds on hold. Oh don't get me wrong, I was able to purchase but unable to do anything with it for 9 days. The whole time I'm watching Bitcoin take a shit, losing value. Tried it again few weeks later and this time the hold was going to be for 12 days. Wtf. No thank you

I dont think any source could stay in business at that rate. I would sell you bitcoin myself before i let that happen.
 
As far as BTC goes, I've posted this in other threads but coinbase has been 100% reliable and cheap (fees are only 0.3%) for me using this method, just takes a little forethought to make sure you have money in your coinbase USD wallet:

1) Open a coinbase account.
2) Add money to your USD wallet, this will take a few days to post to your account.
3) Leave the USD in there until you're ready to make a BTC purchase. I usually keep anywhere from $300-600 in my coinbase USD wallet.
4) When you need BTC, go to coinbase pro
5) In coinbase pro, deposit the USD from your coinbase account into coinbase pro. It's an instant transfer.
6) Buy BTC from coinbase pro using a market order (or limit order if you know what you're doing)
7) BTC purchase is immediate, so immediately transfer to an external wallet like Electrum or whatever you use.
8) BTC is ready to go for purchase

If you wanted to you could probably completely skip the regular coinbase side and just go straight to coinbase pro.

Why do you leave the money in coinbase? I just purchase right when I need it. Then transfer to blockchain and send it to whoever. Sorry if I missed something?
 
Cash App, you have to add cash (real us dollars from your card or bank account) Then you buy bitcoin in the app using the cash you just added. it wont directly deduct from your bank account and purchase the coins. Then i transfer to BRD wallet as it supposedly changes your wallet ID everytime to add a layer of protection. If you still have issues, email tech support, They handled my issue within 2 hrs.

Never been able to make an instant purchase on Coinbase. Might have to try next time through the pro side.
