"How I Got Into Crypto P2P Trading — Lessons from the Ground Level"

Getting into P2P crypto trading changed my perspective on money and digital finance.

I started small—buying and selling USDT and BTC on platforms like Binance, Bitget, Bybit P2P. At first, I was nervous, but after building trust and learning how the system works, I became confident in handling transactions directly with people.

Here are 3 key lessons I’ve learned from trading P2P:

Reputation is everything – Ratings and fast responses build trust.

Know your platform well – Different platforms have different rules; don’t skip the T&Cs.

Always use escrow – Never trade outside the platform to avoid scams.

In the future, I’d like to explore decentralized P2P options like Bisq or LocalMonero.
