Monero helppppppp, I’m going crazy

[Abir_london]

Hi everyone

I know I know there a google and different threads here but believe me I have been reading for hours and hours but I still don't get it!!
It's so so complicated
I'm trying to pay by monero but I don't know how
I how Downloaded the cake wallet app but not sure how to top it up to pay for the seller

The easiest way is to buy Litecoin or Ethereum on an exchange like Coinbase, and then send it to your Cake wallet.

Thanks for this thread, I was about to make one on the same topic. I have Cake Wallet too. But I was wondering, is this an okay way to send money to a vendor? In terms of being untraceable. This is my first time buying using crypto and it makes me anxious, not so much because of potential loss, but because I am dealing with people.

Bitcoin is more traceable than Monero, but Monero isn't present on most platforms. The latter is untraceable.

So I'll need to buy a different coin, then exchange it to Monero.

Bitcoin is fine!
Don't get yourself an extra problem

You are wasting time.

BTC is OK.

The seller charges more for payment made via Bitcoin.

Are we talking about D or someone/somewhere else?

If it's him he is the same for XMR or BTC.

If not, markets don't let vendors charge more for different crypto, just the crypto options to pay with is what they offer, as far as I know.

Not D. It is a vendor on Wickr, not on a darknet market. Can you advise if sending the crypto directly to their address using Changenow is okay?

You can send from any wallet. Once you send the crypto, it's his. Do you know he is legit?

I only ask that because a lot of scammers are on Wickr because they have no product to be vendors on actual markets.

He sent me a timestamped photo of the product.

I guess that's more legit, I'm not trying to sway you either way, just saying be careful of scammers on Wickr.

last week, I received education to use KuCoin. it's a trading exchange that does not require verification and permits to trade cryptos for XMR for virtually no fees. cheaper alternative to Cake wallet and changenow.io

I think I know which seller you talk about.

Don't buy from him, he's asking at least double the price his products are being sold on the dark web. Maybe it's not a scam, but you'll be ripped off.
