Another recommendation would be to utilize exchanges.

Generally, exchanges are a good way to store your cryptocurrencies TEMPORARILY given its simple and convenient nature. The only catch is, you have to transfer your funds on the very least given their history of being hacked across the internet.

Though this may be the case, I primarily store my BTCs in our local exchange in our country due to its convenience. I highly suggest that you consider and explore this option as you may be inclined into discovering features that you may find useful in the long run but remember that never store your BTCs in exchanges permanently.
