Hi everyone, I'm pretty new to cryptocurrency in general, and I'm trying to figure out the best way to buy and store it.
I’ve heard a lot about Bitcoin, but I’m a bit confused about how to get started. What’s the safest way to purchase Bitcoin?
Are there specific wallets I should be using? Should I keep my Bitcoin in an exchange wallet, or is it better to use something like a hardware wallet?
Welcome to the world of cryptocurrency and bitcointalk buddy, as a beginner that is just getting started it can be overwhelming for you at first but you are at the right place seeking for help. The forum has all the information you need to equip you, so basically you will need reputable exchanges to buy and store your Bitcoin and I don't recommend you buying from anyone because you might get scammed, not even your family member is to be trusted with things like this. There are reputable exchange wallets like binance or coinbase that you can store your Bitcoin but for extra security measures you should use hardware wallet that stores your private key offline and it is way more safer than exchange wallets and if you are using an exchange wallet don't ever store a large amount of Bitcoin in it.
