Overall, I'm excited to have made my first cryptocurrency purchase and I'm looking forward to learning more about the world of cryptocurrency. Has anyone else had a similar experience? What were some of the challenges you faced, and how did you overcome them?

On the contrary, the challenges you may have may differs from one exchange to another, and on that note, I will love to asked, what exchange did you used, and what region are you from? So that fellow forum members from your same region will be able to ascertain and probably recommend a suitable, easy to use exchange for you. However, it's nice to have a newbie have his first investment in Bitcoin, because one thing you will need to know is that Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme, and as such, don't assume you will get rich with Bitcoin overnight, but rather treat it as an asset most suitable for long term investment, far better than bank and gold.

Note: Don't borrow money to invest in Bitcoin, but rather invest with an amount you can always afford to lose.
