Nevertheless, as different governments continue to clamp down on more crypto exchanges, these exchanges continue to withdraw their services from countries with such restrictions. thereby lowering the number of exchanges in operation in most countries. This streamlining has its negative side effect. As more people try to use the limited stream available, more scams erupt. This brings us to bybit p2p.

Bybit P2p is a trading section of Bybit where users can sell or buy crypto assets with fiat currency directly from a fellow trader. In this case, Bybit acts as the facilitator (escrow). Bybit allows users to buy and sell from fellow traders at zero fees. Nonetheless, many traders are not genuine. They sabotage trades by either not paying after being sent money or confirming they’ve paid without sending money to the other traders.

CONCLUSION

I see another person begging Binance to come back with their p2p platform without realizing it’s the same. The only difference is that, Bybit customer care system was horrible at settling disputes. Nevertheless, from my experience, I can say they’ve improved greatly. I have used Binance and saved users from binance p2p scams, and I have done the same with Bybit. Either of the platforms works the same way, as an escrow.

Notably, there is no crypto p2p without potential scammers. One still needs to implement these same criteria to be able to see a good outcome. Stay safe.
