PayPal recently began allowing customers to buy cryptocurrencies as part of a growing movement to make investing in crypto easier. But be careful whose advice you take when investing.

Many people are getting into cryptocurrency, encouraged by rising prices. According to a recent report by Crypto.com, there has been a 15.7% increase in crypto users from December 2020 (92 million) to January 2021 (106 million).
