Right, I self-custody but still need on/off ramps. CryptoCom appears to be next on the SEC's chopping block, so they're out; thus why I'm in the market for a replacement. I've never used Coinbase nor Binance luckily (nor Voyager, Celsius).
Furthermore, Strike was my second choice after Swan until reading this article. Double-fuckt... might have to finally pull the trigger on Bisq. Been unsure about it and never went through with a transaction.
Bisq can be intimidating at first, but it works. Always try to make an offer around spot price instead of taking an order from the book, if you can wait, someone will usually take your offer within a day (and that's in a CAD market, with low liquidity compared to USD or EUR)
Good luck!
I have stopped using bisq since we have a no-kyc offer now in Canada. You can load your account through the post office in cash and then buy bitcoin.

I didn't know it was possible to get spot prices, thanks for the info.

Strike pulled out of prime trust a few months ago and does custody itself now

P2P is great and I think Nostr will lead to some even better options.
For KYC, I have been using SFox, but they aren't that big so who knows if they'll make it. Just got a sketchy email from them. https://twitter.com/DiracDel/status/1666593929049915392

Webull removed Bitcoin purchasing too. Robinhood could be next.
Especially since this Wells Fargo limit is probably some type of financial stress test.
