Pages : 80
Book Description
It can be a daunting task to start investing in cryptocurrency because the process seems quite confusing. And with all the rumors that circulate on the news, the internet and around your family's dinner table doubting crypto's validity, you may start to question it yourself. But let's face it, it's all FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt). Cryptocurrency is here to stay, so your patience and persistence will pay off if you get the ball rolling now! Like many others, the FOMO (fear of missing out) has driven you to begin your crypto journey, yet you've remained stagnant after realizing how much work it takes to get started. This frustration is why I wrote this book. I have arranged this book into two main parts: Understanding the basics and Getting started (checklist style). This book is not about trading, investing or how to make money, it is merely a book about getting started in the volatile world of cryptocurrency. Good Luck and HODL!

"Let's scare bear!" says the tiny mouse. But the pint-size bully's plan backfires in this riff on a Japanese folktale. An ALA Notable Children's Book Mouse, Fox, Spider, and Snake all want to scare Bear. But Bear is the bravest animal in the forest--nothing scares Bear. Except, maybe, one thing. Bear says that he's scared of manju cakes. Armed with that knowledge, the animals hatch a plan to scare Bear with manju cakes. . . . lots and lots of them. . . . only to learn that the only scary thing is how much Bear loves to eat them!
