Crypto questions (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 
  1. When using Kraken to buy Monero, aren't you concerned about potential data breaches that could lead to identity theft?
  2. How secure is Kraken when it comes to protecting user information?
  3. If you use a no-KYC exchange like CakeWallet, aren't you worried about potential government investigations?

I'd like to get your thoughts on these options

I live in a EU member country

I'm not a US resident, so I can't use Privacy.com. I'm also not comfortable submitting my credit card info to unknown websites. Plus, PayPal shares my full name with buyers, and I've heard bad things about Revolut online plus their Data breach. That's why I think crypto is my only option. But i also dislikes crypto.

Your only option for what, exactly?

For buying things from websites I don't trust

How about prepaid credit cards?
