even you can get larger from your salary.
I don't think we require the experience to buy the bitcoins because op wish to divide his salary to invest in bitcoin platform.
I noticed 2 years before Dell and some other companies announced that they can give the salary in the form of bitcoins. There a many people do invest on bitcoin to buy the bitcoins that time especially from European country.
Yes if only buy bitcoin we did not need the experience, just buy and hold it. but I think if he wants to invest in other cryptocurrencies, such as altcoins we do need the experience because there are so many coins with different projects.
