Bitcoin for Beginners: What You Need to Know


This is what happened to my investment, my body of money. It fell. I stumbled and dropped it. I took it for dead, had a funeral for it, then it sort of slipped. But, hey, that's no reason for you not to get into the market, Millennial.

All you really need to know is why cryptocurrency has value, how that value compares to traditional currencies, and what investing means in the long run. More
