Buy Bitcoin In Europe

Despite the European Central Bank doing their best to dissuade citizens from getting involved in Bitcoin,  this hasn’t stopped people from buying it as many have lost trust in the way things are being run. With negative interest rates on savings accounts reducing people’s purchasing power on top of inflation and monetary policies that can be decided on a whim by unelected officials, it’s no wonder a growing number of people are looking to save their money in to Bitcoin and preserve their purchasing power.

Bitcoin offers an ability to opt into a global monetary network free from political capture and centralised control. If you’re based in Europe and you’re looking to acquire Bitcoin locally you will need a method of exchanging your local currency for bitcoin. Many do this via centralised exchanges that operate in your country, these tend to be the simplest on-ramps. Below you’ll find a curated list of centralised global exchanges that offer users the option of trading between bitcoin and their local currency.

Buy bitcoin in Europe

Note: 

  1. If you are going to dive in and acquire bitcoin, we highly recommend using a bitcoin-only exchange where possible, we understand this may not always be available and purchasing from digital asset brokers may be your only option. But to avoid confusion and focus on simplicity, bitcoin-only exchanges are a great way to start.
  2. If you do not see a local exchange listed below for your country, you may have to opt for using a global exchangedecentralised exchange or P2P exchange.
  3. Be aware that some of the exchanges listed below are shitcoin casinos so take care!
