If you buy bitcoin in Argentina, you cannot buy dollars for 90 days; bisq users unaffected if they buy anonymously (cash deposit?)

Sounds outrageous, a soft version of Chinese social credit. Buying bitcoin is perfectly legal in Argentina - at least according to quick check on Wikipedia - yet you can be punished for doing it.

My first though was "great, Argentina is doing an advertisement for Bisq". Except, now a seller, if he knows buyer's identity, may blackmail him. So a bank transfer is not a good idea. Cash deposit may be an option, if the depositor does not have to reveal his identity. I know it is anonymous in Spain, but some ID is required in other European countries, no idea about Argentina.
