    When you sell, have a bank account ready to deposit the funds. Depends on the platform you're using

    There are a few sites to buy bitcoin with US dollars. Coinbase and LocalBitcoin are probably the most popular

    @LUCIEN How do you know what each cryptocurrency is worth? Is there a site where you can keep track of them like looking at morningstar for stocks?

    What exchanges do you recommend?

    I also heard you can buy bitcoins in increments. Is this true?

    I took two pretty big hits, so I'm not profitable yet. Since BTC went back up I may just dump the remaining bit I have into the market to see what I can do with it.

    I was given $7 worth of bitcoin back in October of last year in order to run QA tests on a Canadian exchange. The guy I was working for just told me to keep it and I sat on it. When I got into the market, that $7 of bitcoin was already worth over $20. I dumped more than half into the market to play around with it. The remaining bitcoin I had was only worth $8-$9 at the time and as of today it's worth $18.52.

    I'm going back in again this week but I'm going to play it a bit more cautiously.

    I had 2 bitcoin at my peak. I invested into stellar and ate a huge loss. I'm currently at 0.6 bitcoins. I started with about 30 dollars so I can't complain, but I would be up much higher.

    My us dollar value is 2300

    I think I have coinbase and I use a bitcoin card. I have to go find em because I was using them a lot when I was doing online gambling.

    What's the difference between Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash? (BTC)

    Technical disputes among the people that were mining coins disagreed on the future of Bitcoin which lead to a subsidiary of the Bitcoin...Bitcoin Cash. Had a spark when it started but now it's looking garbage.
