Hi @jschindler - thx for this info. I am looking for a possibility in South America.
I live in Paraguay, and its very difficult to get FIAT money over here.
Someone had recommended POLONIEX as an option, but I have not been able to test it yet.
In Europe / Asia / North America it is not a problem to open an account on the most exchanges, but in many countries in Africa and South America there is a problem.
If someone else had a solution for such countries, I would be very grateful.
Sincerest greetings from Paraguay
Edit: It's not just a problem with STEEM, but with all cryptocurrencies.
Have you tried Binance and Bittrex? Poloniex has an absolutely terrible track record with having their steem wallets shut down, transfers not go through, and other general problems. HitBTC also trades Steem I believe but they are more professional and you need to do like a minimum of 100 per trade or something like that. With Bittrex and Binance you can trade small amounts.
Hi @dexter-k - Thank you for your response. The problem is the verification on these plattforms. They don´t accept people in a lot of countrys in South-America or Africa.
Here in Paraguay i only know one place to pay with Bitcon. A drugstore at the airport. Worst case i have to buy a few bottles Jack Daniels and sell it a little bit cheaper in my homecity :D
HitBTC i did not know before. So i check this out.
Thanks and have a good day!
