I received a call today from a former colleague, now retired. He mentioned that he had discussed bitcoin with another friend (whom I recently helped buy bitcoin from Bare Bitcoin).
He was advised to speak to Bobby before making a purchase.
He has an old Coinbase account with some sats and a Visa card. Should he use them and his credit card to buy more?
I recommended the service I use, torkel (npub1wu3…n0pg) and Bare Bitcoin, which is a Norwegian OTC that specialises in bitcoin and has an integrated Lightning wallet.
I said he could also check K33, another Norwegian OTC.
He said he was considering buying between 200,000-300,000 NOK (£20,000-30,000). Not bad for a pensioner pleb💪
I said self custody was best. I advised him to contact me if the amount became significant enough to worry about the exchange being hacked. I mentioned Coinkite (npub1wu4…3vw0) 20% discount on MK4 or Q1, but he said he wasn’t ready for self coustody yet.
This is the third person in a few weeks to ask for advice on how to buy bitcoin safely. Is a bull run incoming?
