Starting in crypto can feel overwhelming. This guide breaks the first week into small, safe steps so you don’t have to figure it all out at once.
Day 1–2: Pick a reputable exchange
Choose an established exchange, complete verification, and enable two-factor authentication before depositing anything.
Day 3–4: Make a small first purchase
Buy a small amount to learn the flow end to end. Fees and confirmations behave differently than you expect until you’ve done it once.
Day 5–7: Learn self-custody
Move a portion to a wallet you control. Write your recovery phrase on paper and never store it online.
