How to easily buy and use crypto online

  Hello guys and girls and welcome to our guide. You will learn how to easily buy and use crypto online safe for all your activities. You will also learn how to stay relatively private and enjoy the internet in a safe and private way, with as little data harvesting as possible from those pesky online advertisers like Google, Facebook and other big tech that gives you everything free for your soul. Lets get started shall we? 

Prerequisites

  First and formost, before we get started and on our way into the nitty gritty side of opening a cryto wallet and buying crypto, you should use daily, for your protection, a safer browser and a VPN whenever you are browsing the internet, whatever you do on the internet. From online shopping, blogging to just doing research or watching porn, you should always use a browser that doesn’t track your location, that does not feed you advertising, and has an active tracker blocker built in.

  A great example of such a browser is BRAVE and you have a download link below.

Brave Software homeGET BRAVE

  You will have the same experience as using Chrome but it will stop all advertising, cookie tracking across websites and other software that can track you or your preferences such as shopping habits, porn interests or social media preferences. This is you, your life and your online persona. Don’t let it be stolen.

  The second thing you need in order to be safe out there is a VPN. Now there are a lot of VPN providers out there but the top 2 choices are PROTON VPN and NordVPN. These guys don’t keep logs and you can get NordVPN as a free perk with your Revolut Platinum, Premium or Black accounts. Fun fact for you to know. Another fun fact is that ProtonVPN is free as long as you are not picky about which server you’re using to connect to the internet, the installation is easy and the interface is very friendly. You have one big CONNECT button and that’s it. Most of you out there won’t need a dedicated server or a dedicated IP so the free version is great for all you beautiful souls. Links for download below.

  The third and last thing you need is a secure email that will not ask you for your name, phone number or location or any other data that might be personal in nature. Again we have the best service out there for this which is ProtonMAIL, link below. They will not track you anywhere and most importantly, they will not give access to any governmental agency if they request it. They are governed by Swiss privacy laws.

  Without further ado lets get into it. You can buy and hold crypto without all the programs above, but we encourage everyone to have privacy as a top priority in these uncertain times.

  For the purposes of this guide we will use the oldest and most reliable wallet out there, which is obviously METAMASK.

  4. On the next screen you will be prompted to tap to reveal your seed phrase. Its a 12 word sentence that has no meaning other than random words that are stronger than your password and is THE SOLE METHOD of recovering your wallet if you forget the password. 
  5. Tap to reveal the seed phrase and COPY IT on a piece of paper. Yes take the time out of your busy life to find a writing tool and a piece of paper and write the 12 words down on it, make sure you written them down correctly and store that paper where your soul is.
