Thanks for your comments.I found Bitcoin difficult to understand at first and did nothing for 4 years wow was that a costly mistake lol.

I put up a beginners guide to buying bitcoin here https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@kevinace/how-to-convert-usd-gbp-to-bitcoin.

how to use bitcoin to buy other cryptos here once you have your bitcoin https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@kevinace/how-to-buy-other-cryptos-with-bitcoin

if you then need to move back to £s for instance you will need to look here https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@kevinace/how-to-convert-steem-or-cryptos-in-to-usd-and-gbp

Cryptos in my honest opinion will transform your wealth as they are in a long upward trend but they are extremely volatile in price action. Always remember never a loss until you sell so if the market goes down in the short term hold and will come back.Only use surplus money though.

Hope this gives you the push to buy your first Bitcoin!!.
