Let’s Crack In!
1. Amber.io
Investing in Bitcoin is easy with Amber.io App.
Amber’s founder is leading the #stackingsats movement in Australia, which is the art of slowly accumulating Bitcoin in small amounts. Amber allows you to buy Bitcoin at the swipe of a finger on the sleek app. You can make one-off purchases or set automatic recurring buys (daily, weekly, monthly) at a minimum of $5.
Link Amber to your bank account and set it to buy $5 worth of Bitcoin daily in the background, it’s easy and you can stop the recurring buy at any point by logging into the secure app. Amber makes dollar-cost averaging into Bitcoin a seamless experience for the smartphone investor and helps remove the emotional aspect from the process. Amber is fully compliant and will require you to undergo KYC when you plan to withdraw BTC or convert your holdings back into fiat.
All your BTC is kept in cold storage, also you can connect your own BTC wallet to Amber, making the process of withdrawing that much easier. Amber’s Australian-based team is helpful and quick to respond, making it a great place to start if you want to dip your toes in the Bitcoin waters.
2. Coinstats
While not as gorgeous as Deltas and Blockfolios of the world, I like Coinstats as an alternative, which focuses on providing information, or, dare I say it, “stats”. For efficiency’s sake, it doesn’t require you to plug in your investments.
Coinstats is free and provides up-to-date price movements of the markets plus, the latest news and info on each coin. You can favourite your investments and only receive updates on those in particular. What makes Coinstats unique is the staggering size of its crypto database. It tracks just about every cryptocurrency out there no matter how obscure, and it’s very easy to navigate for the novice. Coinstats also has lots of info – for instance, it details which exchanges the coins can be found and their corresponding volumes, and many other indicators too.
A unique feature of Coinstats is the Converter/calculator in the options section. This is essentially a currency converter between cryptos and fiat – if the coin is listed on Coinstats then you can see how many you can buy with $50, as an example – it’s very helpful when you wish to see how much Bitcoin/Alt you can buy with fiat and vice-versa. It’s particularly fun to see how much BurgerCoin you can buy with X currency at present, compared with 2017…
3. LedgerLive
Ledger Live is the brainchild of the Ledger team who created the magnificent range of hardware wallets bearing the same name. It’s an offline/online desktop application that connects to your Ledger hardware wallet. It’s one of the easiest and safest ways to manage your portfolio anytime anywhere – on mobile too. You can securely send and receive cryptocurrencies from here and see how your portfolio tracks in real time. LedgerLive supports 22 coins and over 1250 ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum network, and they are adding more constantly. It gives you the added functionality of buying Cryptos through the platform as well.
