The whole world is going crazy about crypto, and Brits are no exception. Believe it or not, data show that spending on crypto across the UK has reached £31.8 billion. From cryptocurrency trading to buying clothing, gym membership, and other goods, more and more people are using virtual cash. 

So if you think it’s time to join the crypto sector, here is what any beginner trader in the UK needs to know.

Surprising Tools That Can Help You Manage Your Money

Learn the Basics

While the crypto craze makes many people excited, research shows that one in 20 think that the sector is just a “woke thing that Gen-Z loves”, while 5% think it is a computing language. Surprisingly, even users do not understand crypto well. 

Thus, one should invest in trading education to achieve potential success. From forums to e-books, there are a lot of learning resources online, with big platforms like Kraken and Binance offering free blog posts and guides.

As Benjamin Franklin said, “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.”

Familiarise Yourself with Relevant Crypto Regulations

Talking about financial information, ensure that the resources you use are tailored to your situation. This is particularly important regarding cryptocurrency regulations, which vary between countries. 

Technology is developing at a rapid pace, and authorities are trying to catch up and join this potentially lucrative sector while ensuring consumer protection. We have to note that the FCA has banned the sale and promotion of crypto-based CFDs addressed to UK investors, so make sure that the services you decide to use are regulated in your area. 

On top of that, familiarise yourself with your tax liability. Note that the standard tax-free allowance in the UK is £12,570. Yet, we recommend consulting a licensed financial professional if you are a complete beginner to help you explore your financial options and limit potential losses. 

Choose a Reliable Trading Platform

The appetite for crypto among UK investors is huge, with more than 30% of Brits owning a form of digital money. That said, remember that trading remains risky due to the market’s volatility.

Thus, always make sure you use a reliable platform to get started. Whether you choose a crypto exchange like Gemini or a brokerage service like eToro, some of the main features to look for are a user-friendly interface, a variety of assets, updated market data, ongoing support, and safety. Crypto marketing platforms like Bitcoin Loophole, on the other hand, can help you connect with a reputable broker automatically, based on your location and trading preferences. By connecting with a reputable broker who can execute trades on your behalf, you can access advanced tools, demo trading features, copy trading, and more. 

Remember, though, that trading digital assets is not a get-rich-quick scheme. Even the best trading software or brokerage service cannot guarantee trading success.

Diversify Your Portfolio

While the cryptocurrency market is more than alluring, with thousands of coins in existence, we should know that experts suggest allocating around 5% of your portfolio to crypto. Why? The answer is simple: cryptocurrencies are risk assets and one needs to add different assets to their portfolio to minimise risks. 

Apart from major crypto players like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance Coin, Tether and Ripple, consider forex, stocks, commodities, and even unique investments like classic cars, art, and real estate. Never put all your eggs in one basket, as the saying goes. 

No matter what you choose, though, remember that there is one crucial rule to follow: invest only money you can afford to lose. Simply because you risk losing your entire capital!

Create Positive Trading Habits

With more and more Brits investing in crypto, it’s vital to mention the importance of trading psychology. But first, an interesting fact: did you know that, on average, a UK resident has £473 investing in their digital wallet? Cool, right?! Talking about demographics in the UK, just like the rest of the world, more men invest than women and more young people than older individuals. 

Nevertheless, no matter what experience or background you have, remember that creating positive trading habits is vital. Invest in an effective risk management strategy and avoid trading out of fear of missing out or greed. Be persistent and accept losses. As Sami Abusaad said, “Are you willing to lose money on a trade? If not, then don’t take it. You can only win if you’re not afraid to lose. And you can only do that if you truly accept the risks in front of you.” 

Reconsider your financial goals in the long term if needed, particularly during the economic crisis we are witnessing. Here we should note that apart from the ongoing health and energy crisis and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Brexit also contributed to the increasing inflation in the UK.

Final Тhoughts

The crypto craze is spreading across the globe, so it’s no surprise that Brits are also going wild about cryptocurrency investing. More and more people invest in digital assets and execute payments with crypto. As a result, major retailers in the UK are also willing to accept digital cash.

Nevertheless, beginners should know the basics before they decide to join the sector. Aspects such as trading education, crypto regulations, beginner-friendly trading platforms, diversification and positive trading habits are some of the things traders should consider. 

In the end, while profits are never guaranteed and research is mandatory, we should admit that trading is highly exciting. So kudos to all UK traders willing to take the risk and enjoy the tidal ride crypto investing is.
