I meet a few people keen on bitcoin as a concept but put off by some aspect eg do I have to mess around with wallets when I want to only put in less than say $1000.
Seems to me their options are limited Eg maybe they could by some shares in microstrategy and get a simliar end result. Not recently up with the play with etfs like the winklevosses proposed years ago but it seemed these things seem to die on the vine or at least are not available e to non USA citizens and your funds were locked in for several years?
Any suggestions about “easy entry” things for newbies?
If you want bitcoin then buy Bitcoin, as far as I know many exchange even allow people to buy $10 or even less amount so if we are talking about in hundreds then it can be done in any exchanges. And also there is no limitations to keep Bitcoin on any wallets, I mean non custodial wallet like electrum.
So the funds won't be locked and also you can keep as long as you want until you keep the private keys safely.
