Plain and simple, you can buy cryptocoins now and hold on to them, hoping their value will rise when you can sell them for a profit. It’s the same as investing in gold, silver, stocks, bonds, etc. Buy low, sell high. On the technical side, this is a much easier way to get into cryptocurrencies. But you still have to jump through a few loops. First of all, you need a way to pay for the cryptocoins. You do this by signing up with a bitcoin wallet and platform site where you can use your currency to buy and sell Bitcoins. I use Coinbase. You sign up with Coinbase and connect your bank account so you can fund your account. Once you have money in your Coinbase account, you can use this to buy Bitcoins. The trick is to just hold the bitcoin for a year juist like a normal investment but with much bigger profit!
