Banking on Crypto

Some great news earlier this evening for the Beta release of the ZCL wallet. The team has been working hard to get this wallet pushed out as fast as possible and I'm glad to see such dedication to this project. You can find more information about the wallet in the link below. Reddit Post You can download the wallet from the link below GitHub Release With the release of the wallet we can only expect an official BTCP (Bitcoin Private) fork date next. While no date has been confirmed. I'm excited to see what comes of this in the next few weeks, get your space suits on, we're going to mars.

Major news in the already mooning ZCL (ZClassic) market. News for support of ZCL / BTCP (Bitcoin Private) was announced earlier today. This is 100% community driven. You can find the github  HERE The fork date has yet to be released but some huge gains are already being made on ZCL, the coin was under $5 a month ago, at current price it's setting at around $230 and there doesn't seem to be any slowing down. Some key news to take note for are the fork date and what exchanges will support the fork. There's a lot of price speculation since this is the first Bitcoin fork supported by a coin other than Bitcoin, my personal opinion, not financial advice, we could see prices from $500-$1000 by the time this fork happens if Bittrex does support the fork. As of now, when the fork happens you will receive 1:1 BTCP for every ZCL and BTC you have.

The first step to crypto and the main question I'm asked is "How can I buy bitcoin and how much should I buy?". The amount is up to you, I try to not give straight up financial advice, in general the more the better, never buy more than you can afford to lose or go without. Crypto is a highly fluctuating currency. As for the buying part, it's easy. There are many platforms to buy from, the main one being Coinbase, it's been around forever and is a trust source. Below is my referral link to get you started. 1.  Download the app to your phone or use the website from your PC. Coinbase 2.  Make an account (I highly suggest adding 2 Factor Authentication and a passcode for more security, you will be adding sensitive information due to payments and tax purposes) 3.   Add payment sources and go through the verification steps. The more verification steps you finish, the higher deposit and withdraw limits you will have. When purchasing it's sugges

In this post I will explain how to send your funds from Coinbase to Exchanges so you can trade them for Alt coins. 1.  The first step is to purchase your coins, explained in my  Getting Started   post 2.  Once you have your coins on  Coinbase , it's time to make an account on an Exchange. There's a lot of Exchanges out there, most have different coins and some are locked to new registrations for the time being. But they do open registrations randomly so it's always good to check back. The best method is to DYOR (do your own research) and figure out which alt coins you would like to invest in. Some of my favorite picks are DRGN (Dragonchain), XRP (Ripple), ADA (Cardano), BAT (Basic Attention Token), CVC (Civic), TRX (Tron). This is not financial advice to invest in these coins, there's thousands of coins out there. But as for Exchanges that I use here's links below to get started. KuCoin Binance 3.  Once you've signed up for an exchange

This is the most technical part of the process, it seems confusing at first but once you understand how it all works you'll be a professional day trader in no time. If you haven't read the first two parts explaining how we purchased the coins and transferred them to our exchange then please do so now. Step 1:  How To Purchase Coins Step 2:  How To Send Coins To Exchange For our examples referenced in the previous post, we will stick to LTC (LiteCoin) for trading and use the KuCoin Exchange. 1. Go to KuCoin, select Markets. 2. A giant list of coins will be shown, make sure you're on the BTC market 3. Now in the search bar, type in LTC or manually find LTC 4. Click on the market (shown in the picture below) 5. Once you're in the market, don't get scared because it looks complicated. The values shown are all rated in BTC value.  6. The graphs are extremely useful and you should learn to analyze these to help predict what th
