Bitcoin is not, as it were, a real coin but a digital form of payment known as ‘cryptocurrency’ which is generated, mined by lots of people across the world. Bitcoin supports instant peer-to-peer transactions globally at a fixed cost or fee. 

The identity of the creator of Bitcoin is unknown.

Bitcoin is not supported by any substantial commodity like silver or gold but is traded online as a commodity in itself. This means that you cannot print them into fiat money. It is an open-source product, which means that anyone with an internet connection, email address, and money can get started trading the cryptocurrency to make money.

The buying and selling of this digital currency is perhaps the easiest and fastest way of making cool money as its value rises and falls every day, thus becoming an excellent target for traders. Despite this, however, trading Bitcoins is a high-risk venture, but also super-exciting offering high rewards since no one can accurately predict how low or high the cryptocurrency can go.

Now, if you already own a few Bitcoins, you can start trading immediately. In most cases, you don’t need verification to begin trading. Bitcoin trading is similar to the trading that is carried out in the stock market which involves buying commodities at a low cost and selling off when the price increase. The volatility of Bitcoin can make the rate to rise or fall numerous times daily, you can see a growth or decrease in price of $5000 in only one day.

The following are the steps to take if you want to start trading with cryptocurrencies:

### Become a member of a trading exchange
---

This is the first thing you should do. These trading exchanges are similar to stock exchanges; the only difference is that there is no central Bitcoin exchange. There are a lot of Bitcoin exchanges that operate 24/7 internationally. So go for the one that suits your needs based on:
- Parities;
- Coin/Token that you want to trade;
- Liquidity;
- Fees.

A few of the top cryptocurrencies exchanges are Binance, Bittrex, Bitfinex, Poloniex, Bithumb, Bitstamp. 

### Study the market and develop trading strategies
---

Trading without having any particular strategy or tactics in your mind is a set up for failure. To make a lot of money, you need to study the market shrewdly to minimize your loss. Never rush into trading; research the market, follow its trends, and develop an excellent strategy. Do not be greedy as this is not a get-rich-quick scheme.

### Practice as much as you can
---

The next thing is to practice. You need to have a lot of hands-on experience so that you can become a competent trader. Managing emotions is not easy, but if you start practicing, you will find it easier to stick to your plan or strategy. Pressure will come, but you have to remain focused and stay objective. Be patient, and you will be on your way on making good money trading with cryptocurrencies.
