My first bitcoin experience

Had to buy Bitcoin to recharge my CivitAI account for AI model purchases. Thought it'd be easy breezy but it was anything but. Used Binance—I have no idea why a currency that's supposed to replace real money and is crowned for anonymity requires me to give every effing detail of my being just to get and transfer. Also, the absurd amounts of commissions just to buy it. If I didn't think this before, now I definitely think this is the biggest fking scam for the biggest fking losers on earth. It literally asked for the address and details of the company I was transferring to, had me record my face and make silly movements just to verify the transfer; there was nothing anonymous about it, just absolute humiliation. Fuk Bitcoin. I'm glad it's dying.
