<h2>Step 0. See the big picture</h2>

Aim: Understand why bitcoin is for you in &#92;&#92;&#92;\&lt;10 mins

<ol>
<li>Watch <a href="https://bitcointv.com/videos/watch/7ce7e850-3fc9-49e7-aa1b-16165f28f4e5">Bitcoin is for everyone</a> by Hello Bitcoin.</li>
</ol>

<h2>Step 1. Get a Wallet</h2>

Aim: Make and backup a bitcoin wallet

<ol>
<li>Download <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samourai.wallet">Samourai Wallet</a> for Android or <a href="https://itunes.apple.com/app/bluewallet-bitcoin-wallet/id1376878040/">Blue Wallet</a> for iOS.</li>
<li>Make a new wallet and write down the words presented to you using pen and paper. These words act as a key to access your bitcoin.</li>
<li>Make another copy of these words (again, using pen and paper) and put them both somewhere hidden/safe in your house.</li>
<li>In the wallet, click receive and copy the address shown on screen, this can be done by clicking on the QR code.</li>
</ol>

<h2>Step 2. Buy some bitcoin</h2>

Aim: Get a small amount of bitcoin

<ul>
<li>Only buy a small amount of bitcoin to start (in a later step we will improve your backup redundancy).</li>
<li>These recommendations let you buy bitcoin quickly at the cost of reduced privacy, buying privately is detailed in a <a href="https://bitcoin-intro.com/#step-12-buying-privately">later step.</a></li>
<li>Once you have bought, find the ‘Withdraw Bitcoin’ button and paste your first bitcoin address from Step 1.</li>
<li>After requesting a withdrawal you must wait for the funds to appear in your wallet (Samourai or Blue Wallet) which should take &#92;&#92;&#92;\&lt; 24 hrs.</li>
</ul>
