It's hard to take the first step. We've all gone through that process, you start reading in the forums and it's all three-letter words ICO, BTC, FUD, XRP ...
You want to go ahead and you open an account in one of the main "exchanges", then they ask you for a photo of the ID, photo of the document with you, an authentication process, deposit by bank transfer, ...
Is it Worth it?
YES
All these steps are the process of removing the chains of the economic system in which we live, to go forward in the use of electronic money.
The steps I detail are the easiest for the public, without any playful interest on my part:
- Open an account at https://www.coinbase.com , authenticate it, deposit funds by bank transfer (start with a small amount of 50-100 $) and configure the two steps of Google Authenticator (save the seed).
a. From here you have two options, buy BTC, LTC, BCH or ETH and save them, or go to step number 2. - Open an account in the most popular exchanges that only accept crypto deposits https://bittrex.com https://www.binance.com , follow the steps described in point one, and deposit in the form of BTC the funds (to diversify).
- Once there you have many options to buy and it is to inform you that offers each project- currency and buy a small amount.
Bypassing step number 1 you are already inside.
