I just bought $500 of litecoin, as it's the coinbase coin that is the most down in the last few days. I will then buy another $250 of bitcoin when I can and stop there with my coinbase investments, limiting it to $2000 (1000 in bitcoin, 500 each in ethereum and litecoin). I will however invest another $1000 to then purchase other kinds of coins, not sure yet.
@macaroni said that we could link our coinbase accounts to other exchanges.
I also need to setup ID verification on coinbase so that I can withdraw my money at some point, lol.
I won't be getting rich of these small investments. There is a significant risk of losing all of my money. However, if the bulls are right, then one or two years for now I may be able to withdraw those investments and pay for surgical looks-maxing.
