Crypto for dummies?

[jordekorn]

I got Coinbase and then exodus wallet. I used my bank card which limits me to 50$ a week, and then PayPal which is 1000 a week, but getting your money into PayPal is the problem. The bank to PayPal holds the money like 5 days. I ended up giving someone cash and they sent me a PayPal which I put on PayPal debt card and then sent to Coinbase, and then transferred out the crypto to exodus wallet.
All that to say, when trying to pay the peptide vendor he said things and used terms I didn’t understand, so I goggled whatever it was and slogged my way through to my first order. I always found an answer, but it took a couple hours, the vendor doesn’t walk you through it.

The most frustrating part was having the right money on the wrong server, then getting it to the right server but not having “coins” to move it or swap it or send it on the new server. If the eth server didn’t tell me invalid address I would have sent the money into the void. I goggled why would the eth server sending address say invalid, and resulting articles told me I was probably on the wrong server, and I was.

It's a good thing you got the warning before sending! Coinbase is happy to send your crypto into oblivion using their "base" network. They've confused the issue further naming their wallet Base as well.

Once PayPal is set up ACH things become more instantaneous. (Depending on your state) You'll look back on this as a learning experience. Exodus is good about preventing incompatible transactions.
