Meet the Troika

Meet the TroikaThis post is especially for those brand new to this Bitcoin world.

You see, one thing we run the risk of over here is moving our focus away from the main story – Bitcoin and the Blockchain are Fundamentally Changing Industries – and more toward those esoteric ones that could scare away most of you.

Our apologies – and we wrote this just for you.

Meet the Troika

Three coins that anyone – and I do mean this…ANYONE – can buy today, hold onto, and potentially watch grow. They’re the Troika. And we’ll show you how to get some of each in just a moment.

Veterans of this space, or of “crypto” in general, will likely be able to guess the three rather easily. And, like our BRED Portfolio, there’s a method to our madness.

Before we walk you through all three, though, if you aren’t a newbie and want to give trading a whirl, be sure to sign up for Altcoin Exchange (REFERRAL LINK over there). And if you are ready for Passive Income Platforms – “PIPs” we call them – check out our post on the subject or just roll right over to two of the lending/investment platforms we use: Control Finance and Bitconnect. (THOSE ARE AFFILIATE LINKS.)

Troika Coin #1: Bitcoin

This should be obvious, and should be part of every portfolio – newbie and experience investor alike.

Bitcoin is now being called “alt-gold” – we think, and other pundits seem to be thinking this, too, that Bitcoin is on its way to becoming that hedge that gold used to be. Will it replace gold altogether? Probably not. But…it does check a few of the boxes (store of value, limited supply) that gold does. And maybe a couple that gold doesn’t (divisible, easily portable, spendable).

Had you bought a little Bitcoin at the beginning of August, you would have realized gains – thanks in part to the Bitcoin Cash “hard fork” – of 193% on September 1.

Troika Coin #2: Ethereum

We’ve been in love with this coin – or “token” – since the beginning of the year, when we bought a *little* at less than $11 each.

It’s now in the $300s. It may go higher before the end of the year, too – it’s the “smart contract” token, and there are tons of applications for its use.

Troika Coin #3: Litecoin

It is supposed to work just like it sounds: as a “light coin,” and that means lower transaction fees when compared to the others. This is good for its becoming a consumer-friendly coin.

Price-wise, it is in the $80 range today – up from high $60s yesterday – and…well, it, too, might have room to grow.

Where to Get These Coins?

We promised above that they’re easy to get – and the common denominator here is that you get a Coinbase account.

Each coin is available elsewhere, sure, but Coinbase is the fastest and easiest way to get your virtual hands on this Troika.

This is a Coinbase REFERRAL LINK and there’s a $10 bonus in it for you – provided you make a qualifying purchase of $100 or more of any combination of these coins. DISCLOSURE: We would also get a $10 bonus for referring you; but once you’re a Coinbase user, you can get your own referral link and introduce your friends and potentially get the $10 for their joining.

Coinbase is Growing

Word is the company added 10 million users last month alone. If you use a credit card, you can potentially have quick access to your coins – otherwise, you may have to wait a couple days.

But I’m telling you…there’s no easier way to get started than with the Troika…and you can get them on Coinbase today.
