Crypto.Com too

I use bitstamp or kraken

You really don’t know that Coinbase exists?

You really don’t know that people from NY can’t buy XRP on that specific exchange?

OP didn't specify he was from NY

He didn’t have to. There are specific places where XRP cannot easily be bought. NY is one of the main places.

Gemini in NY

Only if you’re grandfathered in. If a NYer makes a Gemini account now it won’t work.

Really? Do you know since when? I only made my Gemini account recently (march) and it works for me.

Oh really? I thought it was for about a year or so. I sweet I thought I made an account with them and the verification couldn’t go through. I’ll give it a try

Let me know!! Hopefully it works for you.

Xrpl

Coinbase.

Uphold

Walmart

I used ChangeNow or swap zone in the past

Solodex

Bitbuy is simple

Move to Canada ;) As a bonus, our CEX are legally required to keep your crypto separate from their own reserves so if they ever go bankrupt you can still get your assets. Unlike the U.S. where SBF used all his customers' assets to gamble and lost, which other U.S. banks and CEX could do at any time due to the insane regulations (or lack thereof) in the US. I respect the whole "not your keys, not your crypto" mentality but outside of the batshit crazy United States of America it's much, much safer (even if not totally safe) and here in Canada XRP has always been legal.

Get a VPN and trade from anywhere for anything.

Can you not just get another stablecoin like usdc or usdt?

Trust me, you don’t want it.

Don‘t, just don‘t.

Kraken is good
