2. Paxful

Paxful is a p2p network where people can buy and sell bitcoin directly from other people. This means that most of the purchase terms are discussed amongst the buyers and the sellers. While the platform makes an effort to control con artists via the escrow feature, the company is not liable for any deals gone bad. This means that incase someone fails to meet the terms of your trading agreement, you can will be responsible for your own losses.

3. Localbitcoins 

Localbitcoins is based on the same idea as Paxful. It is a p2p network where bitcoin buyers can look for sellers and vice-versa. Due to this nature, the transaction methods are dependent on the agreement between the buyers and the sellers. By rating each buyer and seller based on their past transactions, the platform aims at discouraging any ill motive from a buyer or a seller. However, the platform is not liable to any losses incurred in any transaction.

Kindly visit bits.africa to have a personal experience of this game-changing Crypto platform.
