12 best Bitcoin apps for smart investors. coinzodiac.comOne of the most fascinating effects of Coronavirus is its impact on money and financial markets.

What’s wrong with our financial system? If you’re not asking this question yet, you haven’t been paying much attention.

For the first time, many people will grapple with an unfamiliar choice: stay in a monetary system that’s failing and funding corrupt entities; or opt out of the inferior system, and subscribe to a more radical but sound alternative.

The right alternative is one in which empowers the individual to both think for themselves and defend their ideals.

... that ensures you are always in control of your money. Where no one can take part in distorting the value of money as a means of payment and a store of value.

Bitcoin’s ascendancy over the past decade has been anything but impossible to deny, especially with the chaos happening at everyone’s doorstep. But how can you navigate a promising yet nascent industry rife with scams, fraud and deceptive pyramid schemes?

How do you keep track of the market volatility? And most importantly comes the million-dollar question – who can you trust?

Read this report to learn more about the trade-offs of each application and compare the features listed below for yourself.

This is my list of the 12 best cryptocurrency mobile apps to help you find peace of mind and eventual financial liberation.

A. Binance

Binance is the most sought after cryptocurrency exchange for its trading liquidity. It’s a rich ecosystem packed with tons of trading app features like:

While the exchange itself isn’t immune to sophisticated hacks, all funds are protected by an insurance scheme known as SAFU (Secure Asset Fund for Users).

“To protect the future interests of all users, Binance will create a Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU). Starting from 2018/07/14, we will allocate 10% of all trading fees received into SAFU to offer protection to our users and their funds in extreme cases. This fund will be stored in a separate cold wallet.”

B. Blockstream Green

A Bitcoin wallet developed by Blockstream, a company building financial infrastructure based around Bitcoin only. It is led by Dr. Adam Back a developer who invented Hascash, often cited as one of the first two people to receive email from Satoshi Nakamoto himself.

Blockstream’s Green wallet requires no registration or personal details to get started. Simply create your wallet by writing down your mnemonic seed phrases and begin transacting right away!

Other unique features include:

 

C. Blockfolio


A highly popular cryptocurrency portfolio tracker that’s 100% free to use. It’s the easiest way to discover, track and manage your investments at the palm of your hands.

This app tracks down the prices of over 8,000 coins and displays it in over 100+ local currencies.

Other app features include:

 

D. Cash App

This Changes Everything for Bitcoin. This is how you should design an app.

Cash App is the easiest way to buy, sell, deposit, and withdraw Bitcoin. Track the BTC price in real-time in your app and get started by buying as little as $1 of Bitcoin. Your BTC arrives in your app instantly. You can then decide to keep it safe in Cash App or withdraw it to a different wallet.

Cash App is leading the way for Bitcoin mass adoption in America. Unfortunately, it isn’t available elsewhere.

It is a mobile payment giant in the U.S. and is primarily used to send money to friends, family, employees payments, etc. quickly and easily within its borders.

Far from new (it was launched in 2013) Square’s Cash App is an intuitive mobile payment app founded by Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey.

Jack Dorsey sees Bitcoin as the world’s ‘single currency‘ in the next 10 years. He believes Bitcoin is native to internet ideas of neutrality, open and borderless.

In May of this year, Cash App expanded its capabilities for Bitcoin automatic recurring purchases on its app. It includes daily, weekly or every 2 weeks.

This is a boring but very useful and sensible option for dollar cost-averaging (DCA) into Bitcoin.

E. Paxful Bitcoin Wallet

Paxful is the most important Bitcoin company you probably never paid any attention to. It trades over $25 million dollars worth of Bitcoin every week.

It has grown alongside LocalBitcoins as an online peer to peer (P2P) over the counter (OTC) exchange where peers interface with the advertisements of other peers offering to trade Bitcoin using Paypal, gift cards, domestic bank transfers, and others.

Paxful lets you buy and sell bitcoin with your choice of over 300 payment methods. You can:

Use the Paxful Bitcoin wallet to:

Some interesting facts about Paxful:

Gift Card Trading makes up over two thirds of the USD transaction volume.

Paxful does not take custody of your money. They simply act as a supervising authority over peers who use their wallets, accounts or instruments.

Thus, Paxful is able to onboard financially disconnected citizens of developing countries on a level that non-P2P OTC exchanges like Coinbase simply cannot. 

It trades in more than 70 currencies around the world and has made traction in geographic locations that larger exchanges have not.

Interested in earning an income with Paxful?:

  1. Become a Vendor by selling your bitcoin on Paxful using 300+ payment methods.

Don’t store your bitcoins on Mobile Wallets!!!

Just Bought bitcoins on an app? Don’t leave them all there! Leaving bitcoins in hot wallets or exchanges are risky:

Make sure you get yourself a Bitcoin wallet like the Ledger or the Trezor that will securely store your bitcoins.

F. Coinbase

G. Gemini

Gemini Exchange was founded in 2015 by the Winklevoss twins (they rose to fame in 2004 after they sued Mark Zuckerberg over Facebook, accusing him of stealing their idea of a popular social network platform). Since then the Winklevoss brothers have come a long way and are known as prominent bitcoin investors.

Gemini is a fully regulated cryptocurrency exchange and also one of the few Bitcoin exchanges which are regulated by the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYSDFS).

Furthermore, it is the only US exchange that allows crypto-to-crypto and dollar-to-dollar trading. It also enables users to deposit fiat currency to trade Bitcoin and Ethereum across a range of different orders.

The Gemini App is part of the company’s long list of customer request since its inception. Before 2018, mobile users have relied on Gemini’s mobile website to access buying and selling crypto.

Customers have reportedly found the app to be fast and highly intuitive in its design. They can now easily fund their Gemini trading accounts from the convenience of their mobile phone.

This is What the Future of Finance looks like.

With this complete set of Bitcoin apps downloaded onto a mobile phone, anyone can now liberate themselves from the clutches of the banking cartel.

See, as Bitcoin establishes itself as a supreme store of value, people will continually abandon their local currencies for sound money.

In time, fiat money will die, and all the worlds’ wealth will be denominated in bitcoin.

Anyone who had the foresight to accumulate even a few Satoshis would find themselves tremendously rich.

What is the purpose of money if not to increase our odds of financial freedom?

Banking today only serves about 3 billion people on the planet.

What about the other 4 billion people?

Bitcoin isn’t a ponzi scheme, it’s a solution to a larger problem.

This is how the average Palestinian describes his financial system in the country.

“The banking system is trash over here. You can’t open a bank account unless you already have a job. Also, if you deposit or receive more than $4,000, you get a call from the authorities asking you to explain why. I have a sister over in the U.S. and I want to send her $100 for the holidays but it costs $20 with MoneyGram.”

Today, Bitcoin is a huge “utility” for sending value across artificial borders over the internet. It’s saving Palestinians from being exploited by the system.

Of course, as the cryptocurrency market matures, many new and better apps will enter the foray. After all, it has just been 11 years since Bitcoin was born.

Imagine using the internet in the 1990s. Remember the annoying dial-up tones and the snail mail? (If you’re old enough to remember all that.)

Till then I hope you will explore these apps and open your mind to the possibilities.

I think we’re almost there. Live long and HODL. 🖖
