But first you need to ‘Get a Bitcoin wallet‘. There are 4 different types of ‘digital’ wallets: Web, software, mobile phone & Hardware wallets. Because web wallets are the easiest to getting started with Bitcoin its what is going to be covered here.

Web Wallets – Web wallets are the most convenient / easiest to use, but are run by 3rd party companies who take care of your Bitcoins for you. This can be  potentially less secure than using a ‘software wallet’ run on your own computer. Leaving you in possession of your Bitcoins at all times.

Getting Started with Bitcoin –

Its final form and structure are still in its infancy but in my opinion the digital currency Bitcoin is here to stay. Bitcoin is a gamechanger, like finding a pistol in the middle of a zombie fight. Wrapping your head around the REAL implications of embracing Bitcoin can be confusing… at first. This is where media hype and misunderstanding can scare people away pushing them to discredit the digital currency without ever trying it.

Bitcoin is essentially DIGITAL CASH. You can trade, buy or sell anything at any price with anyone  anywhere in the world, nearly instantly. Only real thing you need is an internet connection. This new digital currency (crypto-currency) makes buying selling things online extremely efficient. (Buy Cannabis Seeds with Bitcoin)
