Since 2023 · Beirut
Crypto in Lebanon, mapped by the people who live here.
LebThree is the largest Lebanese crypto community and the map you're looking at is our attempt to answer one question everyone keeps asking us: where can I actually buy, sell, or spend crypto in this country?
The story
Why this map exists
In 2019, Lebanese banks froze our savings. Years of zero transparency from the government came to a head, the economy collapsed, and an entire country was told that their money, their own money, was no longer theirs.
Around the same time, some of us had already found our way into crypto. Jad started trading in March 2020, during the early Covid days. Karim joined shortly after. We got close through the 2021 bull run, the NFT wave, and a shared feeling that this was more than a trend. It was a lifeline, and a tool for rebuilding trust in money on our own terms.
LebThree started in 2023 to bring Lebanese crypto holders into one place. What began as a community has grown into the first and biggest Lebanese crypto collective. This map is the public surface of that work: a living directory of exchangers and businesses that accept crypto, built and verified by people on the ground.
Curious about the full team? Head to lebthree.com. For the map specifically, Jad and Karim are the two people you'll hear from.

About trust on this map
LebThree is a trust-based directory. We verify that every business listed here actually works with crypto at the time we add them. That is the extent of what verification means on this map.
We do not take responsibility for your dealings with anyone listed on this map. If you walk into an exchanger or a merchant and something goes wrong, whether it's a bad rate, a dispute, or anything at all, that is between you and them.
Being listed here is not an endorsement, not an insurance policy, and not a guarantee. Do your own due diligence every single time. Treat this map the way you'd treat any recommendation: as a starting point, not a promise.
If a listing is outdated, misleading, or just plain bad, tell us. We'll look into it and remove it if needed. The map is only useful if it stays honest.

Privacy
What we collect
LebThree doesn't sell anything and we don't track you around the web. We don't use analytics cookies.
What we do store: the information you give us when you submit a listing application, like business details, your contact info, and the stuff you'd expect. We use it only to contact you, verify your listing, and publish it on the map.
If you want your data removed at any point, message us on WhatsApp or email and we'll handle it manually.
