How to Buy Bitcoin with Fiat Money?

Can I buy 0.001 BTC?

Absolutely. Beginners who are interested in investing in bitcoin do not always have to buy 1 BTC. Even though most crypto OTC platforms set a minimum order of at least 5 or even 20 BTC, platforms targeting peer-to-peer crypto trading like CoinCola allow users to trade as little as $1 worth of BTC. As an example, consider a crypto newbie who has a friend willing to sell them a small amount of bitcoin. In this case, it’s possible for the newbie to buy Bitcoin instantly – they just hand over some cash to the friend in exchange for bitcoin sent to their wallet.

Can I trust the sellers online?

Many platforms allow users to directly interact with other users who want to trade their crypto. Some exchanges do not require users to provide any ID document to verify their identities, causing several safety concerns. Requiring KYC procedure does not only protect traders who are buying and selling crypto, but also ensure users are protected from legal risks around the evolving cryptocurrency regulations. On CoinCola, you can only trade after KYC is passed, minimising the possibilities of getting involved with fraudulent transactions, fraud accounts, and even money laundering.
