Its a pain in the ass and Im still not able to use USD to buy. I had a couple hundred in Bitcoin that I bought a few weeks back. I sent that to my BTC wallet in Gatehub and exchanged it for XRP.
I plan on buying more. Easiest way was for me to transfer money from my bank account to GDAX (Coinbase), once its in there, Ill buy ETH (Ether) and send that over to my ETH wallet on Gatehub to transfer to XRP.
Its pain to have to do all these steps but I dont mind parking some money in XRP for a while with the hope that it appreciates.
