Crypto wallet recommendations?

I had never heard of stablecoins. So (after quick research) are you saying to purchase a stablecoin like Tether (USDT) instead of Bitcoin for less fluctuation in my crypto account? Makes sense, thanks!

Or usdt which is super stable

That's what they said?

BTC fees are way high, and if you're making relatively small purchases, they can be absolutely killer. Not worth in my opinion.

Learning to use stablecoins is only a teeny bit more difficult than learning bitcoin.

btc is simpler than stable coins. but the fees are higher and it's not stable. So unless you're quoted a price in btc you could lose $20-30 before the transaction goes through and then you've got to send more money.

oh screw THAT noise.

So, with tether it depends on the network.

Say the vendor takes USDT-sol. This is on the Solano network. You need a small amount of SOL in whatever wallet you want to send the USDT-sol from.

I'm not aware of any USDT that uses bitcoin for the network.

God this is SO much more helpful than crypto bro Youtube. Thank you!!

It's fine if the price is quoted in BTC though because then you're not responsible for the fluctuations. QSC had this problem so many times they switched to converting the USD to a BTC amount at the time the sale was requested. So they would say something like "Send X BTC within X hours" and then you no longer have to think about it.

Finally set up coinbase to buy then transfer to exodus but I'll be on hold for a week and won't be able to transfer until then. Not ideal. Hopefully that won't last long...

Same here. I bought on Coinbase on Saturday and it shows that my hold will be removed today by 4pm.
