    Do you then need to buy the crypto anonymously? I’m always confused about that point

      You can but I don’t. You pay the crypto to Kagi through a third party pay service. Its not 100% untraceable but it’s enough to keep you out of any automated tracking that Kagi is or will eventually be doing.

      You can buy it anonymously, mostly through P2P exchanges and markets. But simply buying bitcoin or some other popular coin with fiat, then exchanging that to Monero and using that to buy your privacy things will work as well.

      Monero is very private and anonymous.

        Thanks! My barrier to using crypto has been this first purchase element. Because afaik crypto is not inherently pvt and anon?
