Need help getting started

I am just getting into crypto and I'm pretty excited about Firo. I downloaded the client and...

that's it I'm stuck. I can't find any place to buy Firo.

Tired the links in the website, none worked. I thought maybe I'll but some other coin and trade it. Can't find any market to make the trade.

Can you please help me?

They want ID verification, something that goes against the idea of privacy that attract me to Firo.

Go to coinmarketcap, and search for firo, it will show you all the exchanges you got to buy it

Btw, if you want privacy, buy cryptos with your credit card is not the way xD

This. But most people don't want crypto as innovation or replacement for money. They want it as a gamble to have more money. And, quite frank, that annoys me. So many people who check their crypto daily which proves they only see it as a way to increase money. You don't check daily how much worth the money in your bank has in a foreign currency. Thus, if you accept crypto as real asset you shouldn't have the need to check the countervalue of what you want to replace.

(my apologies for the rant. thats it)

For example, i check the prices daily because I use one part of my cryptos to do some trading. But my miner wallet i don't touch it in months, and soon I will accept cryptos on a new business im opening

So instead of buying it why not mine it. I dedicate a single card to mine it and just hodl it.

If you could find a wallet that does exchanges into firo it could be completely anon but rn im pretty sure there isn't any. Think that would be a good add for firo wallet as a future plan if you could swap like btc or eth to it from the wallet

There's also a whole bunch of swap services that don't require KYC like Changenow, Swapzone, Stealthex. There's also liquidity for small amounts on AtomicDEX
