Cryptocurrency has taken the world by storm. All over the world there are people mining for Bitcoins, Doge coins, and various other forms of currency. They’re starting to carry some real value in the world. Some places even accept cryptocurrency as payment for goods and services. I encourage you to spend some time and learn as much as you can about the cryptocurrency, so you can make your own educated decisions. But to help you get started lets look at some of the different sites, wallets, and apps available to us:

Hopefully the list of cryptocurrency exchanges above will be of good use. Each site should have detailed instructions for various buy,sell, and trade needs. You can easily figure out how to buy bitcoin with credit card, pay-pal, cash, bank transfers. Once you have got some coins then it is a good idea to store them offline if possible. When wanting buy or sell it is safer just to transfer in and out of your ‘cold’ wallet to the ‘hot’ online exchange. Remember that so long as an offline wallet’s keys have not been compromised, then those coins cannot be taken. For cold and hot storage check out the list of wallets below:
