@SwanBitcoin is the best way to make recurring purchases in bitcoin with ACH transfers of $10-10,000. This lets you build a position amid price movements and within your budget. You can also contact them to wire up to $10MM for a large purchase and instant buys just started! 4/
@RiverFinancial offers instant and recurring purchases. You can link your bank account and buy in just a few short minutes. They accommodate large buys, up to $10MM, with excellent service and dependability. Very clean operation. Operate in these gold states:

@CashApp is part of $SQ and is a great way to buy bitcoin. They make it very easy to buy as little as $1 of bitcoin and as much as $100k of bitcoin instantly within their app. You can also set up recurring purchases. 6/
Retirement and brokerage accounts

$GBTC 🇺🇸 and $QBTC.U 🇨🇦 get you exposure to bitcoin prices in accounts where you cannot buy bitcoin directly.

Great option for tax-advantaged accounts, but should be secondary to owning your own bitcoin through other methods

Buying Tips

You do not have to buy a “whole” bitcoin. You can buy $100 or $100 million of bitcoin. Any amount!

1 #bitcoin   is divisible into 100,000,000 satoshis, which most call “sats”. If you buy 1/4 of a bitcoin, you are buying 25,000,000 sats! Stack sats

All other cryptocurrencies are inferior to #bitcoin (I do not own any except bitcoin). Note: Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin SV (BSV) are unfairly misleading to people that want to buy Bitcoin (BTC). They are not sold on bitcoin platforms but will be on large exchanges

Private Storage

One of the best properties of bitcoin is self-custody. It can be one of the more confusing aspects of buying bitcoin. You can safely buy bitcoin and have it stored for you using the recommended buying methods, but soon after you should withdrawal your bitcoin 17/
Recommended self-custody storage:

Software: @bluewalletio (iOS and android), Aqua Wallet (iOS), @SamouraiWallet (android), @ElectrumWallet (desktop)

Hardware Wallet: ColdCard wallet by @COLDCARDwallet, BitBox02 wallet by @ShiftCryptoHQ

Tip: do not get too caught up in the technicals. Buy bitcoin with a recommended method. Take a breather. They will not disappear while you take time to move them to your chosen wallet. You will find it easy and the wallets guide you through it (with help on their sites).

19/
Corporate Buying and Storage

Companies interested in buying and safely storing #bitcoin   should reach out to:

Unchained Capital @unchainedcap

Avanti Bank @AvantiBT

Node

You should engage with and contribute to the Bitcoin network by running a Bitcoin node! You do not HAVE to do this, and some will ignore it, but it should be a part of everyone’s journey in bitcoin. Check out @mynodebtc @getumbrel @RoninDojoUI

21/
Bitcoin companies to check out

@ln_strike Pay Lightning invoices with your checking account. No spending of your bitcoin

@fold_app Earn bitcoin rewards on debt card purchases with the Fold Card

@trylolli Earn bitcoin-back rewards at select retailers with the Lolli plug-in
