RE: Jumping on the Bandwagon & Buying my First Bitcoins
That was good! I too about fell over when I did my first few transactions. It can be scary because it's new. Then add on the fees and a lot will give up before they even get started with cryptocurrency.
Glad you found your way though :0)
I agree I feel the user experience for newbies still has a long way to go. My day job is in internet security and if I found and still find it daunting and complexed at times, I can only imagine what it's like for others just getting started.
Try showing a 70yr guy who doesn't even like turning his computer on how to buy coins.... I made the mistake of showing crypto investing to my dad a week ago and he's trying to learn but gets super frustrated. I just keep telling him "it's easy" and "It's gonna take a minute to learn" and then bite my tongue and continue on.
Don't suppose you wanna stop in and show the old fella internet security too huh :0)
