When Should I Buy? If you're new to the crypto space you may have wondered when a good time to buy is. Or perhaps you've already made the rookie mistake of FOMO (short for fear of missing out) buying when the coins are "going to the moon" but only to have the bags dumped on you.

It wasn't until I had gotten burned that I decided to…
The BEST Way To Secure Your Crypto In one of my previous posts, I talked about the importance of decentralized platforms.

Probably the most notable and outrageous price prediction was made by John McAfee who said that Bitcoin's price would be worth $1,000,000/coin by the end of 2020 back in November 2017.

The BEST Way To Trade Crypto in Canada Lately more and more people have been contacting or asking me how to get into trading or how I personally trade. I suppose that's because of COVID-19 as people are looking at different ways to fill their time now that we've all got more of it.

How To Buy Stablecoins in Canada If you're Canadian, then you know just how difficult it can be to find a ***solid*** crypto exchange in Canada. The exchanges in Canada all lack a lot of things or features that good exchanges have. Some of these include lots of volume, low trading fees, and a small percentage spread between the bid and ask price *at a minimum*.

These can be tough questions to answer as each country has their own "best" platform where you can buy from, and this is also the case in Canada.
