This article explains how to get started with Coinbase, one of the easiest ways to buy Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, and Bitcoin Cash (Bcash). After creating an account on the Coinbase website, users can purchase these cryptocurrencies using their credit card or bank account, much the same way they would make an online purchase on Amazon.
How do I create a Coinbase account?
In your web browser of choice, go to Coinbase.com and click the Register button in the top right corner.
A form will appear with fields for your first and last name, your email address, and a password. Make sure you use your real name as it appears on your passport or driver's license, as using an alias may delay confirmation of your identity later. Also check that your email address is spelled correctly.
Choose your password. Make sure you use a combination of upper and lower case letters, plus at least one number.
