Although you may want to HODL your Bitcoin, the reality is that most of us have to sell Bitcoin for fiat at some point. Fortunately, there are various ways for you to off-ramp your bitcoin.
Read on to learn the three best ways of selling your BTC in Australia.
A Bitcoin exchange is an online marketplace that allows you to buy and sell Bitcoin.
When considering a Bitcoin exchange to off-ramp your BTC, you need to look at its user-friendliness, payment options, trading fees, security, and customer support.
An example of a trusted, non-custodial Bitcoin exchange would be paybtc, which allows you to sell Bitcoin (BTC) to receive dollars (AUD) directly to your personal bank account.
Bitcoin ATMs are physical teller machines where you can sell Bitcoin for cash, offering a fast and easy way of converting smaller amounts of BTC to AUD.
To sell BTC on a Bitcoin ATM, you need to find one closest to you and understand what type of machine it is. You can use a site like Coin ATM Radar to identify the location of a Bitcoin ATM close to you.
The process for selling BTC at a Bitcoin ATM is pretty straightforward. Depending on the ATM operator, you may be required to verify your identity. The Bitcoin ATM will generate a QR code for you to scan and send your BTC. The Bitcoin payment will be processed within a few minutes, and the ATM will dispense your cash shortly.
A P2P exchange allows you to trade Bitcoin directly with another party. It operates as an online marketplace, enabling traders to dictate the transaction’s terms. Moreover, P2P exchanges often support a variety of payment options.
For example, you can sell Bitcoin on a P2P platform like LocalCoinSwap and receive AUD payments via PayPal.
To get started, you will have to register for a trading account. Next, transfer the desired BTC amount from your Bitcoin wallet to the in-platform wallet. Then, you search for a buyer advertisement with your desired amount and payment terms and initiate a trade. Place your BTC in escrow and only release it once the AUD has been reflected in your PayPal account.
Choosing the right method to sell your BTC mostly depends on your needs. For instance, if you are looking for ease and affordability, your best option is to sell your BTC on a Bitcoin exchange like Paybtc and receive dollars in your bank account.
Alternatively, if you are looking to sell a small amount of BTC for cash you can try your nearest Bitcoin ATM. On the other hand, a P2P exchange will provide you with a long list of payment methods, enabling you to receive your fiat on the specific type of account you want.
