Easy step-by-step guide

If you are going to buy cryptocurrency for the first time, then this post is for you.

Here we will explain in very simple and easy language** how you can get started — without any technical knowledge.

🔹 What is important to know before getting started?

To buy crypto you need:

1. A good and trusted crypto exchange
2. A bank account or UPI
3. KYC documents for your identity (like Aadhaar, PAN)

🔹 Step-by-Step: Complete process of buying crypto

1. Choose a crypto exchange

Some popular and safe exchanges in India are:

• WazirX
• CoinDCX
• ZebPay
• Binance (global exchange)

✅ Recommendation: Beginners can start with WazirX or CoinDCX as they have an easy interface.

2. Create account and complete KYC

• Go to the app or website
• Sign up with mobile number, email
• Complete KYC with Aadhaar and PAN card (very important)
• Your account will now be activated

3. Add bank or UPI

• Link your bank account or UPI to the exchange
• This will allow you to deposit money

4. Add money and buy your first crypto

• Add some money to your wallet (e.g. ₹500 or ₹1000)
• Go to the ‘Buy’ section and choose a coin (e.g. Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Shiba Inu)
• Enter the amount you want to buy and click ‘Buy’

🟢 You have now bought your first crypto!

🔐 Bonus: Keep your crypto safe

• Instead of keeping it in an exchange, you can use a crypto wallet:
• Hot Wallets: mobile apps like Trust Wallet, MetaMask
• Cold Wallets: hardware devices that are not connected to the internet (like Ledger)

❗ Things to keep in mind

• Never share your private keys with anyone
• Avoid scam websites and fake apps
• Invest only what you can afford to lose
