What is Localcoin?

What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency, meaning it is not controlled by any government or central bank. Bitcoin can be used to buy goods and services online, and can also be held as an investment. Each Bitcoin is like a computer file that is stored in a 'digital wallet' app on a smartphone or computer. People can send Bitcoins to your digital wallet, and you can send Bitcoins to other people. Every single transaction is recorded in a public list called the blockchain.

What is a Bitcoin/Crypto Wallet and how do I get one?
A crypto wallet is a necessary part of holding and transacting crypto coins. To send or receive any kind of coin, you’ll need a secure wallet that’s just for cryptocurrency. These specialized wallets:
1. Exist to keep track of coin ownership
2. Help generate the public addresses you’ll need to make transactions.
3. Don’t hold your coins like a traditional wallet does; instead, your Bitcoin, Ether, Litecoin, etc. all exist on the blockchain — your crypto wallet simply gives you access to them.
You can download a crypto wallet from your app store, some easy-to-use mobile wallets include Trust Wallet and Blue Wallet.
