Crypto cash Question $$

shagzdan

Hi all,
Has anybody had any experience with bitcoin as was thinking of buying a few, I know that there are other currencies available but this one piqued my interest when it was launched.

I just wanted to know if there is any way to buy them without using hefty broker companies which all seem to offer the same service when googled/ searched.

Thanks
Shane

You could try doing a forum search on 'bitcoin'. Not unsurprisingly this question comes up regularly and the answers are pretty much always the same

Thanks, I am looking for up to date info as the market is very fluid with changes almost overnight so the old advice may need a revisit from the op's

Curious that it was of interest when launched but you've not bought or looked at buying any until the price has rocketed a few years later. Any reason? Normally with investments the idea is to buy low and sell high not the other way round

On the other hand, bargepole technology has remained utterly unchanged for several centuries and the use of one would be the approach advocated by most of the posters on here.

I would only put into bitcoin what you are fully prepared to lose.

At the end of the day you are buying "nothing" as opposed to shares where you actually own a little piece of the company you invest in.

I knew about bitcoin but didn't have the capital to invest whereas my recent lotto win has altered that.
Cheers though.:rotfl:
