How to Trade Bitcoin?

Currently, the cryptocurrency market has not taken its final shape yet. The regulation coming from local government authorities is quite basic, while many still doubt whether blockchain, as it is now, can be applied on a large business scale.

False stories appear every now and again, boosting volatility, and some cryptocurrency exchanges are regularly hacked or go bankrupt. All this shows the high-risk nature of the digital coin market.

Still, with all that, the total market cap of the cryptocurrencies exceeds $250B (it was just $40B earlier this year). Bitcoin, Ether, and Bitcoin Cash are the leaders, with $256B, $40B, and $22B respectively at the time of writing.
