Stock & Crypto Market Exchange
Many of us are probably familiar with the stock market since it has been in existence for about 400 years but not a lot of us know about cryptocurrencies yet as they’re fairly new to our economy. I’ve done some digging & researching myself and according to some of my findings & readings online that both crypto & stock markets are equally risky meaning price fluctuations can be pretty common every so often. So before you even think about investing always remember to only invest what you’re willing to play with because you could either lose it or gain more from it if done with a less aggressive but more of a moderate/conservative approach & make adjustment as needed. Keep in mind the charts of each & every stock/crypto you want to invest in as this is one of the things that’ll help you make better predictions & investment decisions aside from the company of the stock(s) or crypto you’re investing in. Another is doing research about the stock/crypto alone may also help in making better predictions/investment decisions. Most importantly, knowing when to sell and buy is equally as important in making those short or long term gains. The point is simply to buy in low price, hold & know when to sell in high price which can happen in a week, month, a few months, a year or even in many years. The gains you can get will depend on how fast the growth of stock/crypto is going, the market cap of the stock/crypto, the purpose/reputation of the company of the stocks/crypto you’re investing in and ultimately how the economy is doing in general. So far, the total market cap of crypto just reached 2 Trillion USD whereas the total stock market cap is right around 50 Million USD. Moreover, crypto trading is 24/7 whereas the stock market has limited trading hours & have weekends/holidays off. The stock market may be more matured than crypto but it is pretty hard to know when things will either crash or go as high up as the moon. There are stocks/crypto less than a dollar worth which they call penny stocks/crypto and some are even below 1 cent such as the popular joke crypto Dogecoin when the coin was less than a cent for a few years until it hit .1 per coin and now it’s .59 per coin at the time of writing this. Diversification of portfolio is a good thing to do incase a stock/crypto or two price drop so we don’t end up losing a lot of our money within our portfolio. I’d say, anything above 20% of our portfolio being crypto while 80% is a mixture of stocks/ETFs/bonds is considered an aggressive approach to investing whereas 5-10% of our portfolio being crypto while 90-95% is a mixture of stocks/ETFs/bonds is considered moderate/conservative approach. Whichever strategy you choose is up to your experience, knowledge and how much starting capital you’re willing to invest. Now, if you’ve read this far then you must be wondering how to start investing in stock, crypto or both. Here are some of the best apps I recommend to both beginners and experts which you can find in the app store. 1. Kucoin is a great app where there are a lot of cryptos in various price range to trade such as coin worth below a penny, a dollar or more, a hundred dollar or more and bitcoin which is as high as 55,412.20 at the time of writing this. They also have charts and other features that you can use to better help ourselves with trading. They have an internal crypto wallet which acts as a store for your crypto. You can also transfer crypto from an outside wallet to the app’s internal wallet as long as it supports the crypto. Some of the widely supported crypto in most platforms are btc, usdt, eth and more. 2. Crypto.com app is another great app where they show you a list of currently trending or hot crypto but not much penny or under a penny crypto. They also have charts and their own crypto wallet. You can also transfer crypto in or out of the app. 3. Robinhood is a decent app for trading crypto/stocks but you can’t really transfer crypto into the app from an outside wallet and they don’t have any under a penny crypto/stock. 4. Stash is a good app as well but they only allow stock trading here. They have features such as auto investment & smart investment where the app will help you in the decision making of your investments but it has a monthly fee.

One giant leap for crypto... What to know about Dogecoin.
There has never been a better time to grow your understanding of cryptocurrencies and how they work. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin (BTC, ETH, LTC) have made major gains in value since their inception. Although crypto is known to have major dips after strong steady gains, it hasn't stopped people from buying and holding when they can. Now there's another player in the crypto game, and I think it is safe to say it's a major player.

Who in the World is Interested in Cryptocurrency?
Several weeks ago I invested $40 in Dogecoin. That dog was just so damn cute. That’s what a lot of people expect me to say, amiright? You know, middle-aged woman, and all… But that’s not really why. I mean, there isn’t a Shiba Inu on the planet that isn’t cute, but I don’t make investment decisions based on emotion. I’m not stupid. I also spent 30 years as an accountant and working in finance, so I know a little about money.

The Trail That Leads To The Person Who Invented Bitcoin
When you think about it, the idea of creating invisible money is brilliant. In effect, that is exactly what Bitcoin is. The transactions that take place online are between you and your computer. There is no middleman such as a bank and no internal revenue. Bitcoin is a totally unregulated field of finance. It is not too surprising then that lots of people, including the mafia, have taken that cash from under the mattress or wherever else they normally keep it hidden, and invested it in all sorts of cryptocurrency. Crypto of course says it all. The word means 'secret or hidden.' So that is the nature of the beast by name as well as by its modus operandi. I suppose the whole idea is more than a little mysterious to say the least. But it goes deeper than this.

How to Choose the Best Bitcoin Wallet
And of course, you require a crypto or Bitcoin Wallet for storing your digital coins, right? Generally, bitcoin wallets are used to secure the address of private keys, which is vital for exchanging Bitcoin or other cryptographic forms of money. These give a protected place to store your coins by asking for a digital signature to transact coins. These digital wallets are accessible as a device, a software program, an online website, or a service provided by crypto traders.

What are Gas Fees? How to Perform ETH Transactions with Lower Gas Fees
When we talk about cryptocurrency transactions, especially the ones using the Ethereum network, “gas fees” is often one of the most discussed terms. The simplest definition of gas fees would be the transaction fees that users have to pay in order to perform a successful transaction on the network. These fees go towards paying the miners for their efforts in keeping the network running and secure. But, the ever-rising gas fees of Ethereum is a growing concern for the crypto community as it ends up making the transactions costlier for users.
