More Resource Lists
Any other resources I forgot to mention?
Hi Jean,
This list is awesome. I’m familiar with the amount of research required to produce such content, and I’m honestly impressed with that article.
I can see that we have something in common: producing world-class content that really helps readers make better decisions. So much content out there today is just fluffy garbage.
Not yours!
Jean, this is a great list. I would like to suggest Bidya.com for crypto prices, research and news.
Hi Jean, thanks for these useful resources, what software would you recommend for trading cryptocurrency
I don’t trade much, but TradingView is the industry standard.
Hi Jean and readers, This is a terrific post with lots of great information. I’d like to add a couple things to the earning section if that is ok? In addition to the Microlancer site you show, how about Coinbase Earn? This is a great way for beginners to get their hands on a few coins and learn at the same time.
Also, I’ve had some good luck with some earning reward sites. They may not be huge amounts of coins, but if you have some time you can make a few bucks a day. Below are a couple of resources for where to earn cryptocurrency that may help your readers.
This is from Time, It gives some good tips on where to earn free crypto. https://time.com/nextadvisor/investing/cryptocurrency/how-to-get-free-crypto/

Thank you for this post, I will be bookmarking for future reference.
Hello there! I just wish to give you a big thumbs up for your excellent information you’ve got right here on this post I will be coming back to your web site for more soon.
Looks like my comment was not sent (no confirmation, page just reloading). I will try one more time ))
It looks like you forgot to add where to find companies accepting Bitcoin/Crypto. BitconWide.com is the most modern and well moderated imo.
They also have a interesting tool to track the exchange prices on OTC and spot exchanges rates.bitcoinwide.com, looks like in beta testing.
..but the list you collected is awesome 👍
“An impressive share! I have just forwarded this onto a coworker who had been doing a little
homework on this. And he actually ordered me dinner simply because
I found it for him… lol. So allow me to reword this….
Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending some time to discuss
this topic here on your blog.”
Would be careful about recommending hardware wallets from Amazon.. can be tampered with
Also, I’m surprised you didn’t mention Exodus wallet, it’s really nice
https://www.exodus.io/
Exodus is a great wallet although unfortunately not open-source. Bluewallet is better for Bitcoiners.
Great article. Readers might also find https://cryptostar.money useful. It is a classified directory of over 7000 crypto businesses and supports user reviews.
