How I Buy Bitcoin

Saturday, February 6th, 2021

I have purchased Bitcoin on a handful of exchanges and two important features I look for are “fees and ease.” I want the lowest fees available since I dollar cost average my Bitcoin position. I want the easiest experience available so the dashboard must be user-friendly and have the ability to automate my Bitcoin buys. The best way to accumulate Bitcoin with automatic recurring buys is with RIVER Financial.  (Use this link to create an account on RIVER Financial and we can both earn up to $100.) RIVER Financial offers the ability to instantly buy Bitcoin but what I like is the ability to setup daily, weekly or monthly automatic recurring Bitcoin buys. Timing the market is hard. Our emotions lead us to buy when the price is rising (greed) and sell when the price is falling (fear). Rather than trading or trying to time the market, I do a daily recurring buy to steadily increase my Bitcoin stack. Dollar-Cost-Averaging (DCA’ing) smooths out the price volatility and removes the headache of trying to time the market. I also like RIVER Financial’s auto-withdrawal feature. Please DO NOT leave your Bitcoin on an exchange. RIVER Financial allows you to set up automatic Bitcoin withdrawals to your secure wallet. I set the threshold for my auto-withdrawal plan and when my Bitcoin accumulation reaches the threshold, it automatically sends my Bitcoin to the wallet I control. I use RIVER Financial to automatically accumulate my Bitcoin stack with low fees and super ease. And, you should too!
