“Face-to-face Bitcoin transactions are the fastest way to obtain the currency. There’s no two-week waiting period for your bank account to connect and verify, as there are with Bitcoin exchanges like Coinbase or Mt. Gox. I found Weston on LocalBitcoins, a Finnish company that connects Bitcoin buyers and sellers around the globe. With buyers in 190 countries and 3,317 cities, it’s the widest reaching peer-to-peer Bitcoin exchange. There are 100+ active sellers in Washington, DC alone. Richard had a ‘reputation score’ of a perfect 100, which certainly endeared me to him.”
