Here in the US it's pretty easy to buy Bitcoin with Strike or Swan but I have a few Canadian friends that I'm trying to orange pill. What is the best way for Canadians to buy Bitcoin? Is there a Bitcoin only exchange? Do we know if/when Strike will expand?

I'm thinking BlueWallet for them as it's simple, easy to use, Bitcoin only, and has advanced features if/when they need it.

its bitcoin only, non custodial and run by some of the most toxic maxis in this space.

Maybe encourage them to visit a Bitcoin meetup. The underground grassroots community is what Bitcoin is/should be all about.
