There is a steep learning curve but I believe that is a good thing.
Instead of buying BTC through Coinbase, add money to your USD (or what ever currency for Austria). It may take a few days but it is worth is.
Use gdax.com (its linked to your coinbase) and add the money from your wallet to gdax.
You can buy BTC, ETH, and LTC on gdax without paying the high fees.
More complicated, but again I think that is a good thing. Yes there are high fee scams but I think ICO's represent a far bigger scam opportunity IMO.
Hope this helps brother!
