Does Bisq have a good selection of alt coin trading?
No. The majority of the volume is Bitcoin and Monero. There are a handful of other alts on there, but I've never used them and the volume is low. If you are looking to trade Bitcoin for alts though, then this is easily done through a number of instant non-KYC swap services. I don't care for alts though, so I'm not the person to recommend a good one.
Like Krakken apparently doesn't serve US citizens but why does it matter if they do or dont if they're not even operating in the US?
The US has plenty of influence in other countries too. If an exchange ends up on some kind of US blacklist or banned in the US for flaunting their rules, even if they don't operate in the US, then you can guarantee their life will be significantly harder across most other Western nations. For most exchanges, it isn't worth the trade off.
Oh well that's awesome to hear. I need alt trading with XMR in particular lol. I'm really trying to figure out the cheapest way to trade BTC to XMR and vice versa. Atomic swap takes a bit out percentage. Last time I used it, 100 bucks of bitcoin took out 10 or more dollars worth of crypto so I was left with about maybe 80 something to 90 dollars of xmr. There is another private trading app called the incognito wallet but it's only for very small amounts, anything larger than a couple hundred dollars is going to kill you in trading fees which are very misleading. but for less than a few hundred dollars its only a few bucks per trade. But that adds up if you're sending in btc to get xmr, to send somewhere just to convert it back it's nearly the same amount taken using the atomic swaps. And most non KYC exchanges dont support XMR trading.
But yeah thanks, I'm gonna download it and hopefully the fees will be in the less than a dollar range per swap/trade. All I really want is to easily buy anonymous bitcoin. Damned I really miss not seeing the value in buying it back when I first heard of it. I was like an NPC back then mentally speaking.
Wonder if anyone could open up a purely anonymous crypto exchange like ran on the tor network or something? Idk.
