Most guides on the Internet suggest that the best way to start investing in cryptocurrencies is to create an account with a cryptocurrency trading exchange and buy a particular cryptocurrency for a small amount that you can afford.
The process is very simple at first, however, after choosing an exchange and registering an account, many give up even before they have managed to buy their first cryptocurrency.
What is the reason for that?
The short answer would be a complicated user interface.
Beginner investors have a clear investment strategy, which is to buy cryptocurrency, wait for a certain time for the price of the purchased cryptocurrency to rise, and sell it to make a profit.
The problem arises because beginners, reading various guides and tips, take their first investment steps on professional cryptocurrency trading exchanges.
Their user interface usually looks like this:
For people who only want to buy cryptocurrency and just hold it for a certain period, all the tools of professional exchanges are redundant.
The crypto market needs simple solutions that will bring cryptocurrencies and the benefits of blockchain technology closer to mainstream users.
This can be contributed to by platforms that, with a comprehensive onboarding process, enable users to directly purchase cryptocurrencies in a few clicks and store them in their own wallets without additional tools for advanced trading.
One of the most practical solutions for buying, selling, and storing cryptocurrencies is the Bitcoin Store platform.
In the following, we will elaborate the instructions in detail, with the help of which you will be able to create your first digital wallet and buy your first cryptocurrency in a few simple steps.

Open the Bitcoin Store email in your inbox and click on the link we sent you to confirm your registration and activate your account.
*If the email does not arrive within ten minutes, check your spam folder.
If you still haven't received the email, you probably entered the wrong email address. In this case, you will need to register with the correct email address.
Step 2: Verification of Bitcoin Store account (KYC)
