Many people have heard of the cryptocurrency world, but when it comes to actually stepping in, it feels confusing. Don’t panic; today’s comprehensive guide is prepared for novices, helping you go from knowing nothing to easily getting started while avoiding common pitfalls.
1. What is the cryptocurrency world? Understand the most basic concepts
The cryptocurrency world is actually a world of digital currencies, with Bitcoin (BTC) being the most famous.
• Bitcoin is 'digital gold', limited in supply and resistant to inflation.
• Ethereum (ETH) is like a large operating system that can support various projects.
• There are also coins like Dogecoin (DOGE) that have a bit of entertainment value, which also spice up the market.
Besides these, there are hot concepts like DeFi (Decentralized Finance) and NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens). Don't be intimidated by the terms; first remember: the cryptocurrency world is a place driven by blockchain technology.
2. First, learn to play; don’t rush to invest money
Many newcomers come in thinking about making money, but before they understand what's going on, they lose all their money. The first step is not to invest money, but to learn how to read charts and understand the market.
• Learning resources: cryptocurrency bloggers on YouTube, professional answerers on Zhihu, and some free introductory courses.
• Common tools: market websites like CoinMarketCap or CoinGecko to check coin prices, trading volumes, and project descriptions.
3. Choose a reliable exchange
The trading platform in the cryptocurrency world is like a stock account in real life; all your buy and sell transactions must be done through it. The two most important points when choosing a platform are:
1. High security: fund safety is guaranteed; don't put money into unknown platforms.
2. Easy to operate: user-friendly interface, supports Chinese, and there are people to solve problems.
Among large platforms, OKX and Binance are very suitable for beginners.
If you don't know how to register, you can directly ask me; I can guide you step by step and explain every operation in detail.
4. Start with spot trading; don't touch high-risk products
Spot trading is the 'beginner's play' in the cryptocurrency world; you buy a coin, like Bitcoin, wait for it to rise, and then sell to profit from the price difference.
Never jump straight into futures or leverage trading; those are for experts. Even slight fluctuations can lead to liquidation and total loss.
Portfolio allocation advice:
• Only invest spare money; never use rent or living expenses to trade cryptocurrencies.
• For example, if you have 10,000 yuan, invest a maximum of 30% to enter the market, leaving the rest as backup.
5. Learn with trends, don’t blindly follow the crowd to buy
There are new hot topics in the cryptocurrency world every day, such as the recent AI concept coins, Layer 2 technology, etc. Learning along with trends can help you get started quickly. But remember: learn before you buy, don’t chase highs and sell lows. Trends amplify the market; buying early may yield high profits, while buying late can lead to losses.
6. Mindset is more important than operation
The cryptocurrency market is volatile; sometimes it can shatter your mindset in just one day. So, be patient:
• Don't be greedy when it's rising: take appropriate profits and secure your gains.
• Don't panic when it drops: see the big trend clearly, and don’t easily cut your losses.
Finally: simplify the complexities of the cryptocurrency world
