My preferred way to buy bitcoin

[FREAK]

Use a VPN outside of the US if asked if you are US select NO

BINANCE EXCHANGE

They have numerous methods to buy bitcoin/crypto
including inhouse debit/credit card, but also like 5 third party services offering cc, bank etc an others as well

Use your debit, credit card OR prepaid card

Buy your desired amount

Then the nice thing you can exchange it into other crypto such as staking crypto, exchange like stocks or for simplicity

Simply move it to their flexible savings I believe it's 0.1 or 0.01 minimum, it doesn't earn a ton BUT anything is better than nothing and you can turn it on to auto reinvest/compound

At any time you can transfer the coin out to an external wallet such as your own or a vendors for a purchase

Bitcoin relies on what most refer to as an address it makes it SOOO easy
Instead of name, address, email etc being needed you just transfer to the address such as one of mine
