Wild that it's 2023 and we don't have a clear solution on how someone with no wallet buys something onchain with a credit card.

Onchain is the new online - FID 206 -  Building /coop-recs

Tons of replies saying Crossmint + Paper solve this.

How many people here have actually used this and see it as a comparable experience to buying a token on Uniswap?

IMO these two flows are psychologically and experience wise very far apart.

Honestly one of the best flows I've seen so far.

Haven't used it myself so can't verify exactly what I do and don't like about it but in principle it sounds pretty spot on!

It's possible on Courtyard.io. log in with email (powered by @privy) and then buy anything you see listed with a credit card (powered by withpaper.com).

This is undoubtably the closest stack we've seen so far.

One issue is that Paper only supports buying NFTs - not funding a wallet to actually make wider onchain actions outside of that one transaction (AFAIK).

Without a doubt the right direction but still far from becoming the default way new users transact onchain.

This kind of illustrates my point.

All of these providers have fiat onramps and yet no one (for all intensive purposes) uses them.

Why is that the case?

Don’t most wallets have fiat integration now? Metamask, Privy, Dynamic, & Magic all do. 🤔

KYC has definitely felt like the biggest blocker.

I've been wondering if there's a work around with funding an "account balance" more akin to buying credits in Clash of Clans.

What do you envision the easiest way to get someone $10 in a fresh smart wallet looks like?

Getting through approval and kyc remains the biggest blocker here. But we’re on our way!

Feel like you need to be pretty deep down the rabbit hole to know this exists.

Its definitely a viable solution - I would just challenge that its a commonly accepted standard that new users are comfortable using.

It feels like more of a shortcut to get someone to complete a singular transaction.

this is not true, privy, sorare and warpcast implemented this over past few months

You can do this with dynamic.xyz + Crossmint.com (I’m biased but I think the experience is starting to be really good)

Hoping warpcast expands the onchain actions feature to do stuff like this

@privy does this if I’m not mistaken 
sign in with anything, add card, get object onchain

There's crossmint.com, paper.xyz and surely others

wild how its 2023 and we dont have a clear solution on how someone with no access to internet watches youtube videos

Where they storing it if they don’t have a wallet?

I think Warpcast onboarding flow is one of the best experiences out there for this. 

For building it, the closest thing that I know is for NFTs and using Dynamic (https://www.dynamic.xyz/) + Crossmint (https://www.crossmint.com/)!
