thanks for the advice, is there anywhere you suggest to buy ether with sterling or euros ?


You could try buying from Kraken, I recommend them highly. Since you are in Europe, you can pay with SEPA.Their SEPA deposits are very fast and you don't have to wait forever to have your account credited, most times,  it's done within twenty four hours. You could then trade for ether. At the moment, I wouldn't recommend coinbase,  I have nothing against them, they are good and reputable but their customer services sucks big time and I get the impression they don't care. It's just my opinion.

after you bought the coins you need to store them in a wallet of which you have the privat key. otherwise you just have to trust the owner of the wallet privat key. i don't know coinbase wallet. so you have to check yourself if you can access the privat keys.

Hi if I want to sign up with coinbase and buy ether; it appears coinbase has its own wallet to store the ether so is there anything else I need to do ? I'm a little confused
