I'll dive deeper into this in future updates, but for now, just know that you'll need one.
How to Buy Crypto: Filling the Cookie Jar
So you're ready to buy some crypto? Awesome! You can use exchanges like Coinbase or Kraken. These platforms allow you to buy crypto using your bank account or even a credit card. It's like online shopping but for digital assets. I'll get into the nitty-gritty of this in upcoming posts.

Or you can use a secure cloud solution with two-factor authentication. I'll unpack this more in future content.
