Where can I buy Bitcoin in Phnom Penh, Cambodia?

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Ripple is on a pretty impressive run, should hold up as it is one of the few useful crypto's around and has some massive potential if it moves online transfers much better than swift does as people says it does.

Xrp has risen 300 percent in 2 weeks, rumour has it that Coinbase will soon be adopting xrp which should boost it even more. Also, sounds like ripple might be trying to move into China for quicker, more stable transactions which can only mean good things for xrp. It is already in use in Canada by 3 of the top 5 banks for fiat transfers. Instantaneous and extremely cheap compared to swift and Interac transfers.

Yeah, how about Ethereum and next-gen crypto without block chain? The one that doesn't use so mich electricity?

Not if there's a fire, not even if you hear the sound of a thud from my home and one week later there's a smell coming from there that can only be a decaying human body and you have to hold a hanky to your face because the stench is so thick that you think you're going to faint.

Even then, don't come knocking...Not for ANY reason.

I really like eth, had some but sold at $750, but honestly have no idea of the ceiling for it. I haven't really looked too much into next-Gen crypto, as with all new things, it will be hit or miss imo.

To the person that send me a private message to buy crypto: I can't respond to your message because you disabled private message receipt (that's the message I get when I try to respond). But since you asked about buying Dogecoin and Bcash I'm not sure if you're serious. If you want to talk I can do it here or enable your private messages please.
