No problem as everyone is saying but be careful of attacks like dust attacks as snowpega and with that I mean, try to read about what that means
What Is a Crypto Dusting Attack?
And other than that, keep on learning from the forum and don't hesitate to ask new questions that's making you curious.

Thank you my friend! Yes, im learning a lot here and really want to know more about this world, save some money and invest.

Well, go ahead. Read the text under my avatar.
It's a good idea to first learn more about the technical side of Bitcoin, especially choosing the most risky and recommended devices for wallets, how to store keys safely. All the links provided by Potato Chips are very good for you.
Don't rush for great changes. I assume you're still in the early stages of becoming your own bank.

Yes im still learning about wallets and crypto. Im gonna try to use everything on my phone, because i got my computer hacked one or two times, so im not safe to use for it.
Btw, i think i saw somewhere that you have how to make a physical and offline wallet, so maybe thats gonna be my research from now. For now, thanks for your contribution.

Take it easy, one step at a time. Start by getting familiar with some basics about the different kinds of cryptocurrencies out there and (I saw you asked before whats the difference between a BTC address and TRC address - questions like those are a good place to start). Learn about the different types of wallets, what private keys, public keys and public addresses are. Check out how transaction fees work and how they are calculated. Getting that foundation will pay off so you dont make some costly mistake down the line.

Theres no one perfect approach for everything, a lot depends on the specific situation. For instance, using a deposit address from a centralized exchange like Binance isn't necessarily bad if the circumstances line up right. Lets say you just need to receive a one-time payment from someone and you dont plan on holding the coins long-term, you want to swap them. Centralized exchanges have their downsides no doubt but that doesnt mean they cannot also have some upside too, especially for someone just getting their feet wet with all this.

Youre perfectly right. I had to receive some non recurrent payments so i used binance, swapped to my currency and thats it. But now, i want to learn more because im in a new job that is paying me in crypto, USDT. And i want to learn and save them (swap to BTC of course).

For bitcoin you can Use electrum and for EVM or Ethereum Virtual Machine you can use metamask and save all the private key + Optionally add a hardware wallet to give more security on your wallet.

Metmask is flexible with any EVM chain Layer 1 and Layer 2 including top chain like bnb matic and other. + if you are using metamask never approve suspicious contract and you will be safe. yes, using binance as holding wallet is somewhat dangerous.

Im a programmer and i have a VPS, so you think i can put something there instead of using a virtual machine at my own computer?
