Coinbase. One of my best friends recently sat next to the founder of a crypto and convinced him (soundly) to buy some. He convinced me so I set it up tonight. Pretty easy. I’ll most likely lose it all…

It's that time of the crypto cycle where I start seeing new people getting into it. That is normally the signal for the peak of the bull run lol. Normally I use my parents or aunts and uncles asking where to buy it that I know we are near the top.
It really makes no difference to me. I have been dollar cost averaging for several years now, with a sizable portion of my liquid assets wrapped up in it.
My biggest advice with crypto is that I would not chase any alt coins and focus on BTC and/or ETH. With BTC ETFs out there, there are really easy ways of gaining some crypto exposure without having to learn about coins and wallets. If you are going to buy actual BTC or ETH, you can use a soft wallet like what Coinbase or Kraken have. They are relatively safe. Make sure you use two-factor authentication with an authenticator app (you should be doing this for ALL financial apps, to be honest). If you are in it for the long haul, get yourself a cold storage wallet. The larger exchanges like the ones I just mentioned are relatively safe, but I would not advertise how much you have or where you have it. There are phishing scams everywhere with crypto.

This is my favorite video on bitcoin. It is short and to the point.
I had a buddy in grad school who was getting his PhD in mathematics. He was obsessed with cryptography and blockchain technology and convinced me to sign up for coinbase all the way back then. They were giving 0.1 BTC to anyone with a University email to signup for an account at the time. When I first heard of BTC there were online faucets you could go to and they were literally giving 25 BTC away at a time for anyone who clicked on a box. Of course I was a moron and waited a few market cycles before finally getting convinced to buy some.
