What is Bitcoin & crypto?
Bitcoin is digital money you can send anywhere without a bank. It runs on a global network (the blockchain) that records every transaction. "Crypto" is the wider family of digital assets — Ethereum, stablecoins and thousands more.
You don't need to buy a whole Bitcoin. You can own a small fraction, so you can start with as little as 10–50 USD to learn how it works.

Frequently asked questions
Is Bitcoin trading safe for beginners?
All trading carries risk of loss. Start small, use a reputable exchange with strong security, enable two-factor authentication, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.

Look for low fees, strong security, deep liquidity, and beginner-friendly tools. Bybit is a popular choice for spot and derivatives, with built-in trading bots.
How much money do I need to start?
Very little. Exchanges let you buy fractions of a Bitcoin, so even 10–50 USD is enough to learn the ropes.
What is a crypto trading bot?
Software that buys and sells automatically based on rules you set (like grid or DCA strategies), so you don't have to watch the market all day.
