Another way which completely avoids centralized exchanges is to buy Splinterlands card packs via credit card or PayPal and then sell the packs for Hive on Hive Engine or open the packs and sell the cards for DEC on Splinterlands and convert the DEC to HIVE on LeoDex.
I used it a while ago to get money out of PayPal into crypto in the lowest cost way (without being killed on exchange rates) - Indeed I made money on the deal by buying the packs with bulk and referral discounts.
Now that is thinking outside the box!
Thanks for sharing.
let me know if you try this, @trostparadox. I am looking for the perfect way to use Paypal as well.
Very interesting. This is a credit card purchase, but may not be recognized as crypto... I am in the US and credit card purchases of crypto are usually blocked...but I haven’t tried in a year...

Splinterlands is a game and has accepted credit card payments for years.
It also happens to be a blockchain game with tradable NFTs. :-)
How do you sell these packs of NFTs?

I am pretty impressed with this. I might have to try it just for fun.
Spend $100 Paypal bucks and see how much crypto I get for it...
This is something I was thinking of too.
