And when you do read up on it, it's a sea of contradiction. Everyone disagrees on everything. There are no rules it seems. OKay less put 2k on the table. HELP. Where would be a good place to invest... Can PM me if need

(Edit you can also just buy in the app with your visa card if you don't wish to bank transfer) Then buy Bitcoin (it would be wise to wait for the next time it drops, always buy in the dip) and then put it in Earn for 3 months to get a 6.5% APY return on it. Your return will be weekly in a crypto called CRO, convert it every so often into Bitcoin or else build up a pile and stake it to get a visa card that gives cashback. I myself have the indigo card for 3% cashback and free Netflix and Spotify Use my referral link https://crypto.com/app/kubfxnh2ax to sign up for Crypto.com and we both get $25 USD https://help.crypto.com/en/articles/3579328-the-crypto-com-app-user-guidehttps://help.crypto.com/en/articles/2996965-crypto-earn-how-does-it-workhttps://crypto.com/en/cards.html This gives you your initial investment and 3 months to figure things out. You can go for another 3 months or can transfer your bitcoin when your 3 months earn is up. I've moved mine to another app called Celsius as the rates are pretty similar but I still use crypto.com to buy, then transfer Join Celsius Network using my referral code 190386fd85 when signing up and earn $20 in BTC with your first transfer of $200 or more! #UnbankYourselfhttps://celsiusnetwork.app.link/190386fd85

Was so close to jumping on the bandwagon 3 or 4 years ago and i wish i did in hindsight but better late then never i guess. I cannot help but be extremely confused with the amount of different advice given with regards to everything crypto related but if you plan to invest in crypto for the long term then am i right in saying that its really as simple as buying some bitcoin or whatever cryptocurrency you want. Transfer it to a secure wallet and pretty much walk away and leave it sit for a few years and hope for the best ?? Or am i missing something?

Crypto.com, Celsius, BlockFi, Nexo all offer different deals and have pretty similar rates. Coinbase fees are high and you cannot stake or earn (yet). I started with coinbase but moved elsewhere quickly.

Seems simple enough but every time i read up on crypto it seems to be confusing, panic etc etc Of course making a profit might not be easy but in terms of holding there is not a lot to do only buy, store and wait, right?? Or should i be doing more? Am i missing something or what lol
