Why the fuck does this all.seem so complicated? Ive spent thousands now through PayPal. But I want to pay in crypto to expand my horizons.

I use chase bank, have a debit and credit card and get shut down at every turn for crypto. My head spins when I read all this shit. Can someone help me with how to submit money to buy crypto? I have a privacy.com account, has anyone used that? I dont really mind some fees. Just want to be able to move money around and actually make crypto work. But it feels.like chase bank has me shut down before I even get started
Chase bank specifically their CEO Jamie Diamond hates crypto. So they will block anything they might see as using crypto.

It's not crypto it's your bank.

Try and deposit some cash on PayPal. Once the cash settles use that to buy the crypto you want.

You can also buy in Robinhood which is probably a good way to get around chases security.

I guess it provides an isolation step and is a "method" to ensure anonymity for transactions.

Each to their own as to why they may choose to enhance their anonymity.
Hi, tried using PayPal but the hold time is wacky! I transfer from debit card to PP, buy crypto, then sell, and want to transfer to vendor. Even though bank removed cash and I can trade with it, they block a transfer for up to 2 weeks. I spoke with them and they won't provide actual length for security reasons.

Using cash app avoids this issue.

Which one of those would be tour suggestion for the easiest start? Deposit in RH or PP. Ty btw!!!
 
I tried adding PYUSD (PayPal cryto) to my PayPal account with a cc. Nope.

I'll bet I can added cash to my PP account with a cc. Then convert to PYUSD. (then PYUSD to USDT or whatever) Knowing what I know now, I'd have to move it to Exodus at some point.

I don't know yet?

Mptherfucking Squatch! Lets team up on this shit buddy! If one of us doesnt learn to do this in the next month or so, the dumb one gets slapped across the mouth with a 3 day old trout.

I did the dame with cc, no go.didnt even consider adding it to paypal and then converting. Would someone smarter than me help us with a quick reminder of our jext steps. Stay Squatchy!

Man on a mission if I’ve ever seen one
I am! I want KLOW, among other things, and the HPT price is around 240, plus 5% ,PAYPAL plus at least 50 shipping if thats all i want. The klow would cost me around $300, ill save ( five or take around a hundred i can get it thru one of the current crypto vendors. Plus, i havent had success haggling with the few vendors that accept PayPal, and i wanna try to see if I can get even better deals. Damn right girl, im on a mission!

🙂↕️🙂↕️ What I put together from skimming your last few messages with others is basically:

Attach fund source to crypto wallet (Exodus)

Purchase Solana

Convert Solana to USDC

Editing as I play with Exodus app:

And then depending on rate changes, you watch for what cryptocurrency to use instead of Solana etc. XO Pay network (best conversion rate) on Exodus funds your account from USD so don’t need a middle man like PayPal really. For funds, there’s Apple Pay, debit, and Venmo for fast transfers and bank for within 48 hours. No fees to use XO Pay, at least up to $500.
 
Alright. Ive transferred money to a PayPal wallet, have downloaded an exodus wallet. Now im going to convert 100 paypal wallet bucks to solana and try to transfer it to the exodus wallet.

Ok, i got 69 solanas for 102bucks. Lol its already down a dollar
