You've all been there, haven't you? You're ready to buy your first Bitcoin or any of your other favorite cryptocurrencies, but it seems like the process takes forever. You have to get verified and jump through hoops and more hoops and fulfill all of these requirements and it can end up being a very frustrating experience.

If that weren't enough, you then have to wait for days and days before everything is cleared in your account to actually get the cryptocurrency. Now, I will grant you that the process has slightly improved over time and that you can buy very small amounts of crypto with a debit card but it still has some limitations. Not only that, but if you do decide to get some cryptocurrency fast, you often times have to get it from a site that you may not trust or end up paying a buyer's premium to get it from a kiosk or other type of outlet. 

This is, in my opinion, part of what is holding the price of cryptocurrencies down at the current levels. I realize that cryptos have made a huge leap to the upside and market cap is higher than it's ever been, but I believe it would be much much higher if accessibility were more of a priority. 

I am raising awareness of this issue so that we will hopefully speak out more on this topic and maybe we will see some changes take place in the way the system operates overall.
