101 sats \ 7 replies \ @deleted231216 1 Sep 2022 \ on: Bitcoin peer2peer marketplace on a mobile app for the EU market bitcoin
When I read marketplace, it sounded like it would support products/services, like Ebay or Craigslist, instead of only Bitcoin <-> fiat exchanges.
Sepa, PayPal, Revolut, Wise, Amazon gift cards and a few more local options
Out of these, only Amazon gift cards are KYC-free (SEPA/Paypal/Revolut require ID to open an account), unless cash in person or cash by mail is included under "local options".

Buying bitcoin p2p and paying with your Revolut or SEPA can still be buying non-kyc bitcoin. It's not because your fiat funds are kyc that your bitcoin is kyc.

I think you're confusing kyc and financial inclusion. They are not the same, at least for me.
Kyc-free means no personal information is collected while making a transaction. This is also possible with p2p SEPA or Revolut. Only the two participants know each other.
Financial inclusion should indeed be important, but it's not the same thing as kyc-free. It means everyone should be able to buy smth, with SEPA or cash or...
Allowing people to buy btc p2p via SEPA is kyc-free and inclusive. Same for cash.

Kyc = a process to verify the identity and other credentials of a financial services user. In a P2P service like Robosats, this process is not done. Meaning there is no kyc.
