How to buy Bitcoin for the best price in South Africa

[bitcoincash]

Why is Bitcoin on South African exchanges more expensive than the Bitcoin price listed when you google “Bitcoin price”?

Bitcoin price is volatile and is constantly changing because it is dependant on the supply and demand for each exchange. This means that no two exchanges have exactly the same price for the cryptocurrency.

The Bitcoin price that is reflected on Google is taken from the USD value of BTC from high volume international exchanges. This price is different from the price you will find in local exchanges. The reason for this is that the BTC to ZAR price you find on google is simply the BTC to USD value converted into ZAR and not the actual BTC to ZAR market value in South Africa.

This is strange, because if you buy a cryptocurrency is not a normal price, then you can easily go into a minus, many exchanges wind up prices, especially in countries where it is forbidden to use Bitcoin.
