How does a wallet work?
You can store your own cryptocurrency coins in a digital wallet. There are several options for this; an online wallet, a wallet on your own computer / telephone or an external ledger (storage). Due to its connection to the internet, an online wallet is susceptible to hacking and various incidents have therefore occurred. The wallet on your own computer/phone is a second option and in that case keeping a backup is recommended. The external ledger (storage) is a secure way to store the cryptos outside the computer. In that case, you will only be able to lose the coins in the event of damage, physical theft or loss of the access codes.
How can you trade cryptos?
Cryptocurrency is a currency, or a means of payment, with which payment can be made directly from sender to receiver. This means that the intervention of a third party such as a bank is no longer necessary. Shipping is controlled digitally via a blockchain. The cryptocurrency coin consists of a unique code that is sent over the blockchain and can also be monitored there. The purchase of cryptocurrency coins is done via an online exchange platform. This is a money exchange office where cryptos can be purchased with, for example, euros or dollars.
What do you pay attention to as a beginner?
If you want to start buying and selling cryptocurrencies, explore the available exchanges, choose an online or offline wallet and determine your own strategy. In addition, it is important to pay attention to the possible tax consequences that apply to you once you have purchased a portfolio and you start trading.
A good start with crypto
A good strategy is crucial for holding your cryptocurrency coins. If you want to day trade, the approach is completely different than if you opt for a long-term investment. When day trading, continuous monitoring of price changes is important. With an investment where the horizon is still far into the future, daily monitoring is less interesting.
Cryptocoins
