all you really need is patience because your steps to start investing in cryptocurrency are correct, but from the history of the posts you made, I see that you have an interest in NFTs, I advise you to be careful with that, if indeed you are a novice investor who is just learning about cryptocurrencies, you should choose cryptocurrencies that already have a strong foundation like "Bitcoin".

slowly you should try to explore this forum and read more because there is a lot of knowledge spread in this forum. I hope you can make money as soon as possible from cryptocurrency, but don't make "money" which is your main goal in cryptocurrency.
