I like to add that I'm from the US and do have us bank accounts.  I'm not in the US now but i could use my us bank accounts etc.


I just checked coinbase and i think you could get it there? 


Basically i want to know how easy is it to buy it and sell it.  But most importantly, how do you store it.  Such as do you need to download a wallet on your computer like btc or leave it on blockchain where you dont even need a wallet etc.

Please.. no such thing as leaving on blockchain, I know you mean leaving it on blockchain.info, the two are totally different things.

Technically, there is no need for any wallet at all if you have the private keys. Blockchain.info is what we call a web wallet, using coinbase is both a web wallet as well as an exchange.

Most new users are having problems with Coinbase registration and lots of complains about them scamming, somehow all those never happens to me, have used coinbase for years with no problems.

You can ask inside the alternate cryptocurrency sub board, pretty sure there is a dedicated Ethereum forum too

I know this is a bitcoin forum.  But does anyone know what forum or which subforum i can ask questions about any other cryptocurrency like bitcoin?  I ask this because i notice Ethereum price has gotten way up... its already $225 or so already.  I have heard about this and litecoin previously but didn't think much about it.  I took a look at ethereum and it was around $10 a coin earlier this year.


That means if you had bought say 100 coins, well that $1000 would be already $22500 or so.  If you bought 500 coins, that $5000 would be over $100,000 as of now.


Does anyone know if it was easy/hard to acquire ethereum earlier when it was $10? 


Also where do i buy ethereum?  Also do you need like a wallet for it?  For example with bitcoin, you can leave your bitcoins on blockchain or use a wallet like electrum or armory etc on your computer etc.  From what i heard, bitcoin is much easy to understand than ethereum. 


How would i go about getting ethereum?  Do i need to download a wallet on my computer like electrum?  How long would that take?  Im very interested in this as right now its around $225 or so and the thing is well... of course there is chance it can skyrocket all the way up to a lot more. 


Also does anyone know much about litecoin or anything else?  I read online that there is also zcash, dash, ripper and monero as the other cryptocurrencies etc.  I want to know is it easy to buy/sell like it would similar to bitcoin.  Im also guessing the most important crytocurrency besides bitcoin would be litecoin, ethereum, then zcash?


I ask this since the prices for these seem to be very low and of course it can go all the way up etc.
