I’ve heard of things like iPostal and Traveling Mailbox. Do these services allow you to register with bank, DMV, IRS, Voting, etc? How do they work? Would a normal P.O box using its physical address from USPS work? I’ve tried researching it and haven’t gotten clear answers.

I don’t want to show up on those whitepages sites with all my information on them. I want to stop it from the start.

    You can either:

    • Shop at grocery stores that accept bitcoin. Farmers markets are often good places to find BTC vendors, or you may have a “BTC vendor day” in your area. If you look up “Bitcoin in Tulsa, Oklahoma” or wherever you live, there are plenty of sites with maps of vendors that support BTC.
    • Use online sites like like bitrefill which let you buy gift cards with your Bitcoin, often with significant discounts. Pretty much any major retailer can be spent at this way
    • Use a “bitcoin debit card” which is essentially a custodial bitcoin account you put BTC into and when you swipe your debit card, it automatically converts your BTC to fiat to pay the merchant. This of course requires KYC.
    • Worth noting that most grocery stores in the US have coinstars, which you can use to buy and maybe also sell Bitcoin? Many others have Bitcoin atms. I believe these also require some degree of kyc, I haven’t used them before.
