I advise you to begin with spot trading if you are new to trading cryptocurrencies. Most newbies I believe started from spot trading, just like me, a few years ago.
You can then think about transitioning to futures trading once you have a better understanding of the market and how it functions. Master first or familiarize how trading works then you can start doing futures trading with very less leverage.
As a beginner who's trading, start with knowing the market, then step into the simple and less risky one, then gain some experience, and then go deep down. Spot trading is the one that can show live results, but future trading should require foreseen calculations and thinking. The crypto trading market is really volatile, so as a beginner, start with simple steps, not complex ones.
