THE DATA

​
Helps you understanding the market, and the parameters of each coin, track trends and grasp information, such as the sections regarding announcements (usually an event that can cause significant rallies and value surges)
Very simple interface, ideal from a smartphone, not as "deep" as coinmarketcap.com though.

04
THE WALLETS
Where to store your cryptos
There are 4 ways, all with advantages and inconvenients.
Hardware wallets such as Ledger / Ledger Nano S. Probably the safest since you need this storage device to access your crypto currencies and allow trades etc. Comes at a high cost though.
​
Software wallets such as the famous Exodus wallet, are software installed on your computer, these are a good middle ground between hardware and online wallets, as they allow a more flexible use. However, if not accessible via an app, you need your computer to move them in and out.
​
Online Wallets, very common and plenty of flatforms. I dont think they are ideal as more prone to hacking, however, some coins will only be storable on those, if not keepting them on the Trading exchange plateformes
​
Trading exchanges such as Binance or Bittrex etc as seen before, are the best place to keep your cryptos if you want to trade a lot, this will avoid your the fees from moving your coins in and out.
​
For safety, always enable 2 step signin when available, and make a compex password mixing Abc to z, numbers and symbols.
