Cryptocurrency is the future of global currency. Crypto trading is a very profitable business that could earn you millions in weeks, I also do crypto trading so I’m speaking from experience, one of the best platforms to trade cryptocurrency is binance which is trusted by millions of users globally. However, there is a high risk involved not just in crypto trading, there is risk in every investment, honestly speaking, and I had a colleague who lost $1,200 early this year in crypto. I am not saying that to discourage but to rather encourage and prepare you for the future. The best platform I recommend for crypto trading is binance.
