The most reliable P2P platforms operate within large crypto exchanges. But not all of them currently support transactions with the Russian ruble.

The choice of cryptocurrencies is also limited. Usually, no more than five digital assets are available on P2P platforms - USDT, bitcoins, Ethereum, USDC.
"Large crypto exchanges are interested in maintaining their reputation and therefore pay close attention to combating fraudsters on P2P platforms. Both automatic and "manual" checks of applications and transactions are used. The seller's cryptocurrency is blocked on his wallet after the buyer declares his desire to buy coins until the transaction is completed. If the seller or buyer fails to fulfill the terms of the transaction, you can file an appeal with the crypto exchange's support service, and they will try to help resolve the issue," explains leading analyst at Bitget Research Ryan Lee.
