@Shazz one easy way to get into crypto is having someone pay you in crypto. So offer to sell something - many people are flush right now in bitcoin and would prefer to not cash out - that would be high in demand like a MacBook. Or if you have a skill - accountant… attorney, dog groomer etc, offer it up in exchange for bitcoin. Don’t have a MacBook you say? So go buy one from BestBuy with your credit card and find a secure - using escrow- and reputable place to sell it for bitcoin. This is converting fiat currency to bitcoin using an asset sale. Nothing illegal about it. Depending on how you do the exchange, the txid of the bitcoin may have your name all over it but that is no serious consequence. Just the payer knows and whomever they share it with. GL
