Cryptocurrency in Buenos Aires

[polostar88]

I know bitcoin is used quite a bit, but was wondering if others can be traded for cash here. For example ethereum. Bitcoin hard to use lately because of the fees and the wait time. Sorry if question has already been asked. Curious to know of reliable and safe contacts for trading, or if there are resources for finding this.

This is a Chilean company that specializes in ethereum and accepts banking deposits from Argentina. Be careful about the prices though. Sometimes they are reasonable, sometimes it would be much cheaper to buy bitcoins and convert them to ethereum elsewhere.

Thanks but I'm not looking for something that involves Argentinian bank accounts, which I don't have. I'm looking for something like localbitcoin, that is, to know if there are reliable contacts where I can sell ethereum directly for cash (pesos or dollars) in Buenos Aires. Is this done at all?

You can trade Ethereum for Bitcoin using https://shapeshift.io/#/coins . No account needed. Go to Youtube to watch videos on how to use them, and then apparently (I've never used them) sell the Bitcoin using
https://www.satoshitango.com/faq. Satochitango charge a 2 % fee per transaction, ouch. Their website says they can pay you with pesos. I would imagine you would have to have a DNI card to receive cash. I'm not endorsing them, just saying they exist. Please let me know if you do use them and are successful. My crypto guy's charts today shows ETH going up to around $2400 in March and Bitcoin to 28 K, Of course there may be some hefty retracements along the way.

How can I sell bitcoins with SatoshiTango?

Again, thanks but as I have no Argentinian DNI nor bank account, this isn't very useful. If I wanted to trade bitcoin I could just look on local bitcoin for a contact that sold bitcoin for pesos (or, preferably, dollars) locally. Or I would have asked here for the same. The entire point is TO AVOID bitcoin with its slow transfer times and high fees.
