a newbie, so be<strong>for</strong>e Im going to teach you how to acquire cryptocurrencies<br />

you must try to understand what they are.


What is a cryptocurrency?<br />

A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency designed to work as a<br />

medium of exchange. It uses cryptography to secure and verify transactions<br />

as well as to control the creation of new units of a particular<br />

cryptocurrency. Essentially, cryptocurrencies are limited entries in a<br />

database that no one can change unless specific conditions are fulfilled.<br />

(www.cointelegraph.com )<br />

The first and most famous cryptocurrency of all, Bitcoin, was introduced in<br />

early 2009 by an anonymous programmer of group of programmers under<br />

an alias Satashi Nakomoto. Its still unknown who is he is. Satoshi described<br />

it as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, which is completely<br />

decentralized, meaning that there are now servers involved and no central<br />

controlling authority. These days there are over 1500 different<br />

cryptocurrencies. The best place to check their real-time prices is:<br />

www.coinmarketcap.com<br />

Whats more important to know is what you can do with cryptocurrencies.<br />

1. Buy goods. In the past trying to find a merchant that accepts<br />

cryptocurrency was extremely difficult. However, these days it has<br />

changed a lot. More and more merchants start to accept bitcoin and<br />

other crypto.<br />

2. Investing. Many people believe that cryptocurrencies are the hottest<br />

investment opportunity of this time. There are indeed many stories of<br />

people who turned millionaire with a small initial investment.<br />

However one should keep in mind that cryptocurrencies are<br />

extremely high-risk investments and that you should always do your<br />

own research.


3. Trading. The difference between investing and <strong>trading</strong> is that it takes<br />

a lot more active time and ef<strong>for</strong>t to trade cryptocurrencies. You need<br />

to spend a lot more time but the results can be seriously amazing, if<br />

you do it right. For more <strong>trading</strong> tips please read this eBook till the<br />

end.<br />

Now, I could bore you with some more in<strong>for</strong>mation about different use<br />

cases and legality issues but thats not the reason you are reading this<br />

eBook. You are here to make money, so we will cut the boring stuff and<br />

jump right to it. If, <strong>for</strong> some reason, you would like to know more boring<br />

things about crypto feel free to visit: www.cointelegraph.com<br />

How to acquire cryptocurrencies?<br />

Be<strong>for</strong>e you are able to invest or trade cryptocurrencies you have to convert<br />

your fiat (USD, EUR, ETC) into Bitcoin(BTC), Ethereum(ETH) or<br />

Litecoin(LTC). The best way to do that is to visit COINBASE. This exchange<br />

gives away bitcoins easily that is why it is user-friendly to first timers. You<br />

can now buy bitcoins using your PayPal and other major credit cards. It<br />

offers benefits and services such as purchase up to $1,000 worth of BTC per<br />

week, instant transfers among users, insured deposits, debit cards, welldocumented<br />

API, and wallet services.<br />

How to start <strong>trading</strong> and investing in cryptocurrency?<br />

Now you have acquired BTC, ETH or LTC, you can start <strong>trading</strong> and<br />

investing in any cryptocurrency you like. As I mentioned be<strong>for</strong>e there are<br />

over 1500 cryptocurrency. Mostly so called shitcoins. Im not here to tell<br />

you which ones are the best. In order <strong>for</strong> you to know that please do your<br />

own research. Im here to help you transferring your funds to an exchange<br />

so you can start making money. I highly recommend using BINANCE. This<br />

exchange offers a wide variety of crypto and is very user friendly, a perfect<br />

exchange <strong>for</strong> newbies.<br />

CLICK HERE TO OPEN AN ACCOUNT ON BINANCE<br />

Again make sure the URL is safe and genuine (veilig means safe)<br />

Create an account by clicking on the following tabs.<br />

Follow the steps BINANCE tells you to and verify your ID. You are now<br />

ready to deposit funds and start <strong>trading</strong>.<br />

Check the next page to see how YOU deposit


Now login into your account and go to FUNDS BALANCES.<br />

On the right side of your screen you find these different tabs.<br />

Go to BTC, ETH or LTC (dependent of which coin you bought on Coinbase<br />

and press DEPOSIT. The next screen pops up (BTC is taken as example).<br />

See next page


Make sure to copy the Deposit Address and go to COINBASE<br />

See next page


Go to ACCOUNTS and click on SEND in the BTC tab. (you can click on it if<br />

you have funds on Coinbase).<br />

In the next screen that pops up you have to paste the EXACT Bitcoin<br />

address you copied from BINANCE.


Paste the address, choose the amount and press CONTINUE. You might have<br />

to wait between a few minutes and a few hours. Dependent on how many<br />

transactions are being made at the time. Check your Binance account every<br />

15 minutes to see if your funds are transferred already.<br />

CLICK HERE TO OPEN AN ACCOUNT ON BINANCE<br />

How to buy other crypto?<br />

If your funds are transferred you have to hover over EXCHANGE and click<br />

BASIC. The next screen should pop up.<br />

1 2<br />

3<br />

1. Here you can see the buy and sell orders of the coin you choose (ETH,<br />

in this case). Green is buy order. Which means that the highest price<br />

people want to buy is on top of the green column. Red is the sell


order. Which means the lowest price people want to sell is on the<br />

bottom of the red column.<br />

2. At this area of the screen you can choose which pair you want to<br />

trade.<br />

3. This is the area where you place your order. You could either buy or<br />

sell a coin. You can buy/sell <strong>for</strong> the market price or decide to place an<br />

order <strong>for</strong> another price.<br />

BINANCE<br />

How to build your portfolio?<br />

Now you know how to trade on Binance its time to start building your<br />

portfolio and acquire more and more coins. The Internet is full of ways to<br />

earn money with crypto. However the easiest and safest way is to invest in<br />

a particular coin by Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA) This means you acquire a<br />

particular coin over a longer period of time instead of going all in at one<br />

moment. This method makes sure you are covered <strong>for</strong> potential gains and<br />

losses. Lets say <strong>for</strong> example that you go all in on a coin at $0.10 and the<br />

next day the coin goes <strong>for</strong> $0.08. This means you lost 20% on your<br />

investment. DCA removes this risk. Lets say you purchased 50% at $0.10<br />

and 50% at $0.08, this would mean you only lose 10% on your investment<br />

instead of 20%. If you do this <strong>for</strong> a longer period of time your losses and<br />

gains will average and your position is solid <strong>for</strong> the long run. Since pretty<br />

much no one knows how much a coin is in – or – decreasing its better to<br />

acquire a position <strong>for</strong> a coin by DCA. Although this method proves to be<br />

beneficial in the long run, it might take some time to see gains. There<strong>for</strong>e I


suggest you use another way to make money with crypto. This particular<br />

method has proven to be capable of generating returns over 5000% within<br />

months. This means that a $100 investment turns into $5000 within<br />

months. Even better: $1000 turns into $50.000 cold hard cash!<br />

How to store your funds safely?<br />

When you generated all these amazing gains you need place to keep them<br />

safe. Keeping your hard earned funds on an exchange is the least safe way


to store your earnings. Exchanges are getting hacked occasionally and<br />

there<strong>for</strong>e storing them on a wallet is the safest way without a doubt. If you<br />

just started out with a couple hundred bucks. I suggest you to stick to<br />

COINBASE. Once you really start making some serious money, which is<br />

extremely possible if you use the method above, I recommend using Ledger<br />

Nano S One of the downsides is that it costs a little under $100, there<strong>for</strong>e it<br />

would be a good investment if you start making a few thousand $$$. The<br />

difference between an online wallet and a hardware wallet is that a<br />

hardware wallet is offline. Which means it is extremely hard to hack. This<br />

makes it a great way to store your funds very safely!<br />

communitys I strongly recommend you to use Telegram, Twitter and<br />

Reddit. These media are extremely popular among crypto investors and<br />

there<strong>for</strong>e a definite must-have!<br />

If you sign up <strong>for</strong> the sites I just mentioned, youll quickly come across<br />

different terms, which you probably dont understand. In order <strong>for</strong> you to


know what they are talking about I added a list of most used words in the<br />

crypto-universe.<br />
