Cryptocurrency exchanges have transformed from niche services for exchanging one cryptocurrency for another by 2022 into multifunctional services with functionality approaching or even exceeding ordinary banking services. One of these services, which you will never find in your bank, is P2P exchange of cryptocurrencies to cryptocurrency and to fiat money. But first of all, it is worth noting that the most popular is the service of buying Bitcoin, Ethereum or USDT for dollars, euros, yen, rubles, tenge or vice versa. The popularity of this method of exchange is that the exchange takes place between individuals. What follows from the name P2P (Peer-to-Peer). This term was originally used for a peer-to-peer computer network where there is no Server, i.e. controller, where all members of the network are equal.
History of P2P cryptocurrency exchange
Over time, the exchange between individuals also began to be called P2P Exchange, because the exchange occurs without intermediaries. The first P2P exchanges of cryptocurrencies before the advent of cryptocurrency exchanges took place on forums between their participants, as well as in the well-known case of exchanging 10,000 Bitcoins for two pizzas. Moreover, the exchange was made between people who do not know each other and from different cities. Then, among active participants of forums there appeared transaction guarantors, which could be exchanged by newcomers who did not have rating and trust on this forum among other users. The guarantor received cryptocurrency from both participants of the transaction, and sent it simultaneously to both participants only after receiving the cryptocurrency from both parties. Taking a small percentage for his services. As you can guess, the process of exchange on forums through guarantor was not the fastest and most convenient. Therefore, with the advent of cryptocurrency exchanges, the service of guarantors on cryptocurrency forums became unpopular.
But not for long, because with the growing popularity of cryptocurrencies there was a great need to exchange cryptocurrencies for fiat money (euro, yuan, yen, lira, ruble), when intermediaries began to appear again, offering their services as a guarantor.
As the exchange between individuals has certain advantages for some users of cryptocurrencies, unlike the centralized purchase and sale of cryptocurrencies through official services or exchangers. Therefore, this exchange market is big enough that cryptocurrency exchanges themselves would not pay attention to it. Where they would act as a guarantor of transactions between individuals, taking a small percentage for this service as well. Since trust in crypto exchanges is much higher than in guarantors on forums or exchangers, that is why P2P exchange on exchanges is very popular now, including for bypassing sanctions for citizens of Russia, Belarus and other countries.
