I have always been confused about crypto currencies and how they work... how they are stabilised and regulated but with the present plight and constant devaluation of my country's currency, it's safe to say I need to learn, practice and own a safer landing, the banking systems are not helping with constant maintenance levies and network issues. I'm aware that there is no perfect place but anywhere with a more better solution is more preferable. Cheers to the beginning of a new journey.
Congratulations you did the right thing, we all wish that there will be more people who would realize the value of Bitcoin as a store of value in times of constant devaluation of their local currency and inflation, but people prefer to have second thoughts because of the bad news they are receiving from mainstream media.
Merited you for your new journey I'm sure it will be a fruitful journey because you have chosen the right path to financial freedom and accepting this new innovation in online payment.
