1. Step 1
1.1. SECURITY
1.1.1. OPTIONAL: Use a Separate Bank Account!
1.1.1.1. Refer a Friend | Capital One
1.1.1.2. Why:
1.1.1.2.1. Use this account EXCLUSIVELY for the money you want to buy your bitcoins with. You make your cash deposits into this bank account and only attach this account to Coinbase.
1.1.1.2.2. This isolates all of your other bank accounts from any sort of hack of coinbase or any other crypto currency you might be invested with.
1.1.1.2.3. Is this required?
1.1.2. USE SECURE PASSWORDS!
1.1.2.1. Randomly Make them Up
1.1.2.1.1. Use Mix of Upper & Lower Case and Special Characters
1.1.2.1.2. At least 15 Digits
1.1.3. USE a PAID PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS
1.1.3.1. Google G-Suite at $5.00 per month
1.1.3.1.1. Here's a 20% Off Code for your first year!
1.1.3.2. Why?
1.1.3.2.1. Because FREE Accounts SELL your email to third parties and are not secure enough!
1.1.3.2.2. If you use a free gmail/yahoo/aol/hotmail/apple account, then YOU ARE THE PRODUCT and they sell YOU to the Advertisers. A paid account stops that and is worth the extra security!
1.1.3.2.3. NEVER USE YOUR WORK EMAIL FROM YOUR EMPLOYER!!!
1.1.4. ALWAYS USE 2-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION
1.1.4.1. Google Authenticator
1.1.4.1.1. Use this whenever you can.
1.1.4.1.2. MAKE SURE YOU DON'T LOSE YOUR PHONE!
1.1.4.2. Why?
1.1.4.2.1. Because this requires you to KNOW something AND to HAVE something.
2. Step 2
2.1. SignUp for Coinbase
2.1.1. Coinbase - Buy/Sell Digital Currency
2.1.2. Why?
2.1.2.1. This allows you to BUY & SELL Bitcoin
2.1.2.1.1. It's a crypto currency bank
2.2. Get a Gemini Account https://exchange.gemini.com/register
2.2.1. Why?
2.2.1.1. This ALSO allows you to BUY & Sell Bitcoin
2.3. WHY GET BOTH OF THESE?
2.3.1. Because there are purchasing LIMITS
3. Step 3
3.1. BUY BITCOIN From Coinbase
3.1.1. Buy your bitcoin from Coinbase
3.1.2. Buy with Credit Card
3.1.2.1. Advantage:
3.1.2.1.1. IMMEDIATE AVAILABILITY
3.1.2.2. Disadvantage
3.1.2.2.1. 4% fee (But worth it! because it's immediately available)
3.1.3. Buy with Bank Account
3.1.3.1. Advantage:
3.1.3.1.1. No 4% fee
3.1.3.2. Disadvantage:
3.1.3.2.1. TAKES ABOUT 2 WEEKS TO GET YOUR BITCOINS!! (that's probably too long and likely will cost more than the 4% credit card fee - plus it's not fun to wait!)
3.1.4. Increase Your Limits
3.1.4.1. DO upload your ID for increased security and higher buying limits.
3.2. Buy BITCOIN from Gemini
4. Step 4
4.1. https://bitconnect.co/?ref=DanaConnect
4.1.1. Sign up for Bitconnect
4.2. Make Your First Loan
4.2.1. The higher the loan, the faster you get your money back "capital release" and the higher the payouts. $10K is the break point, but any amount is good to test.
4.2.2. See "My First $10K Bitconnect Loan" video Coming Soon!
4.2.3. As of January 2018, Texas and other jurisdictions have been attacking Bitconnect. It's extremely high risk and it's been shut down for a week! Probably shouldn't do this!!!!
