Where can I buy Bitcoin?
We present the 10 best Bitcoin brokers from Germany, Austria and Switzerland where you can buy Bitcoin. In the article “How can I buy Bitcoin“, we explained in detail what you should look out for if you want to buy Bitcoin and what you should consider when choosing a provider. In this article, we look at the question of where you can buy Bitcoin and present the 10 best Bitcoin brokers. We will look at the selection criteria explained in the previous article, such as fees, type of custody, payment methods, limits and type of verification. The platform on which the purchase or sale takes place, whether Lightning can also be purchased in addition to Bitcoin and whether a Bitcoin savings plan is possible in addition to a one-off purchase.
The order of the Bitcoin brokers presented is not a ranking list, but in alphabetical order.
If we had decided on the order of the best Bitcoin brokers, the providers from Switzerland would have ended up in first place.
However, this is not because the providers are so much better, but because the regulator in Switzerland prescribes a very customer-friendly and simple verification process.
No verification is required for Bitcoin purchases from Swiss Bitcoin brokers under €950/day, €9,500/month or €95,000/year. What is even more pleasing is that the bitcoins must be credited directly to the buyer’s wallet. This means that buyers have full control over their own bitcoins and are protected if the Bitcoin broker is no longer available.
