Personally I think the bitcoin ship has sailed.
You don’t need a wallet to buy any crypto currencies per se. though it’s a really good idea to have one. (I would suggest a “cold” wallet) This type of wallet is not connected to the internet. The Nano ledger S is really popular and works with most of the popular currencies. This just protects you from losing out on your investment should the website you trade through get hacked, they just close up shop, or decide to halt trading.

More traditional way of jumping on board. No wallets, no b.s.

That's the dumbest thing. They are currently trading at 1.5x the NAV
Definitely gonna end up with a Cold Wallet. What’s the easiest way to transfer from an iPad app to the Nano Ledger S? I’m vaguely remembering reading something about not being compatible with iOS?

Yeah seriously, have fun with that...
It'll end up being stopped by the SEC in 2 weeks and bitcoin will be dead, again
Before you make a purchase through coinbase, send your funds over to gdax and purchase via a limit order (There are zero fees that way). Coinbase owns gdax, so you can log in with your coinbase info and then use your coinbase wallet to fund the gdax account.

Make sure you do some proper research before you purchase anything. Depending on your goals, you might be better off purchasing something other than bitcoin. I would stay away from bitcoin cash until you understand how it came about (fork from bitcoin), the politics behind it, and how the price may be manipulated by certain individual(s). Please never buy any crypto asset at its all time high. Fear of missing out is a very real and powerful epidemic. It applies to most aspects of life, however, it is especially strong in the crypto space (hence the current bubble that will eventually pop). Be patient. If your terrified of losing $500, maybe drop the amount down to something that you won't lose sleep over. Speculating should be fun, not stressful.

I hope you control better than you gamble
Off to LAS, with the Mrs, in 3 weeks to try my hand at entering the WSOP.
When I say try my hand, I mean I sit at the bar and drink and saunter off to $25 a hand blackjack for a bit and she sits in the poker room for days on end entering satellite tournaments.

Man this was my worst day at the casino in years. I was never up by more than $15.
Doing well with Ripple sir! Enjoy the ride, especially if it gets listed on coinbase. It's a great hybrid. I didn't get in on XRP because of my personal view on traditional banks, however, it will be around for the long term no doubt. If it penetrates 0.000160 it should be another uptrend break. Cheers!

Damn BTC down to $10,981! I sold around $18,000! I guess that’s about the only thing good I’ve accomplished in my life!

Do you understand why the price is going down? Cause it bears no resemblance to Tulipmania.
