Step by step guide on how to buy Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) Cryptocurrency

To purchase Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) on the majority of the cryptocurrency exchanges, you will already need to have Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH) to trade with. The good news is that you can easily purchase either cryptocurrency at Coinbase using your Credit Card or even Bank Account.

NOTE: There are other places to purchase BTC and ETH online, but I'm going to focus this guide using Coinbase as it's the easiest to use for new investors in cryptocurrency.

Step One: Setup your Coinbase account

Although Coinbase has both iOS (iPhone) and Android apps, I have found the easiest way to setup your exchange account with them is to use their website.

1) Head over to their website.

2) Next enter your email address in the get started box. Please MAKE SURE that the email address you enter is one you have access to and is your most secure email as this is how you will always sign in to your Coinbase account.

3) Then Coinbase will ask you to select if you are an INDIVIDUAL or BUSINESS. I'm assuming you are an individual so I will skip the whole business account setup. MAKE SURE to use your real name as Coinbase will use this for account verification.

4) Next Coinbase should send you an email to verify your email address. Open the email and click on the link. I have to say although email verification emails are somewhat annoying, since you plan funding your account with actual money, this security step is very comforting.

5) You should now be signed into (or be able to sign in) your Coinbase account. Again, since you will be using your hard earned money to fund your Coinbase account, there are a few more verification steps you need to complete. The first being verifying a mobile phone number.

Coinbase uses your mobile phone number to setup Two-factor authentication (2FA) on your account making your account even more secure. Basically Coinbase will text you for each major change to your account including making purchases.

Don't worry, I've been using Coinbase for a while and they have NEVER spammed me. They seriously just use this as a way to add another layer of security to your account.

6) Now you need to setup your funding sources (i.e how you plan on purchasing your Bitcoin or Ethereum). Your options are either using your Bank Account or Credit Card. Since you are reading this guide now and the plan is to use your BTC or ETH to purchase Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS), I'd suggest using the Credit Card funding option.

When you purchase using a Credit Card, you will be able to purchase immediately and have access to trade your coins right away. Only downside is that your weekly purchase limit on a Credit Card will be around $750 when you first open your account.

If you want to fund your account using your Bank Account, your purchased cryptocurrency will not available for trading for 4 to 5 business days. Granted you will have locked in your purchase price at the time of purchase, but this means you won't be able to easily use your purchase to start buying Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS).

Step Two: Make your first purchase of Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH) at Coinbase

Now you should be ready to make your first purchase of Bitcoin or Ethereum that you will then use to buy Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS).

As I mentioned at the beginning of this guide, Coinbase makes it very easy to start investing in cryptocurrency. All you need to do is head over to your BUYS pages and select the currency you wish to purchase.

Since I'm not a licensed professional and the cryptocurrency market is so volatile, deciding between which one to invest in based upon value will be up to you. What I can tell you is that the majority of exchanges that offer investing in Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) will allow you to purchase using Bitcoin (BTC).

Decide how much you want to invest. This is a dollar amount. Realize you don't have to purchase a full coin, rather you will be investing a portion of a coin. Knowing this will actually help you with your future cryptocurrency investments.

Next select your funding source (i.e Credit Card).

And click BUY.

NOTE: When you make your purchase of BTC or ETH you will notice that Coinbase has a small fee (3.99% for credit card purchases). The nice thing is that they alert you before you make your purchase of the total purchase price.

CONGRATS! You are now an investor in cryptocurrency.

Step Three: Use your Bitcoin or Ethereum investment to purchase Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS)

Now it's time to purchase Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) using your investment from Coinbase.

Since Coinbase only allows for the purchase of Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, and Litecoin, you will need to transfer your BTC or ETH investment to another cryptocurrency exchange. I know this sounds painful, but it really isn't.

Right now you can buy Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) at a good number of cryptocurrency exchanges including Unnamed.

As each exchange has their own way of setting up a trading account, I will have to skip that portion of this guide but the majority of the exchange (like first affiliate) have a similarly easy setup process like Coinbase. Plus since your funding will be doing using the Bitcoin or Ethereum your've already purchased, the setup should take less time.

Once you have your trading account setup at one of the exchanges that trades Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS), you will need to transfer your BTC or ETH from Coinbase to that specific exchange. This is done via a wallet system.

Don't get overwhelmed as this is pretty straightforward.

At the exchange where you are wanting to purchase Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) you will need to get your account's BTC or ETH wallet ID. On most exchanges you'll see a DEPOSIT button next to either BTC or ETH. When you click on it you should see (or be given a button to click to create) your wallet ID. This wallet ID is specific to your account.

Once you have your specific currency's wallet ID, head back over to your Coinbase account. Since I don't want to miss any steps in this important process, click here to view the official how-to guide from Coinbase on transferring your currency to another wallet.

Now you play a short waiting game as your transfer has to go through the cryptocurrency ecosystem and be confirmed multiple times. There is nothing on your end to do except wait for this to happen. Depending on the day this could take 5 minutes or even up to a few hours.

The good news is that in your Coinbase account they give you a link to track the transfer.

Once your transfer has been confirmed it should show in your exchange's account and will be immediately ready to be used to buying Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS).

If you purchased Ethereum (ETH) at Coinbase, you are going to want to look for the BTCS/ETH investment.

For Bitcoin look for BTCS/BTC.

If Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) doesn't have an investment option using the currency you purchased as Coinbase, don't worry. All you need to do is trade into the specific currency.

Let me reiterate, I am not a licensed professional so I can't give you any investment advice on how to handle the next step.

Once you are ready to buy Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS), most likely you will have a couple ways to do so.

The first is buying at the market price. This is the current price Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) is trading at. There is nothing wrong with purchasing at this price, but if you think the price will drop or wanted to get it at a lower price, then look at the limit price.

Limit price bascially says you want to purchase a certain amount of Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) at a specific price. If the price of BTCS gets to that price your order will be processed. Remember, with how volatile the market is, there is no guarantee the price will drop to your limit price.

NOTE: No matter which trade option you select, the price will be purchasing Bitcoin Scrypt (BTCS) at will be based upon the currency you are trading with (BTC or ETH). Some exchanges don't convert this over to your local currency, so you can always use Google and type something like "0.0025 BTC to USD" and Google will tell you the USD value.

WOOT WOOT!
