In this post, I will be guiding you on how to buy crypto with Kumo wallet.
Before that, if you are new to crypto space, it will be good that you understand what cryptocurrency is and how it works.
Blockchain and cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrencies are digital assets which are used to power a blockchain.
A blockchain on the other hand is a distributed ledger where transactions are stored.
Every transaction on a blockchain can be seen by anyone as long as it is a public blockchain.
Aside from the misconception about blockchain and cryptocurrency, some people do refer to tokens as coins but they are different.
A coin is a cryptocurrency with its own blockchain. Examples of such coin are bitcoin which runs on the bitcoin blockchain, ether which runs on the ethereum blockchain, algo which runs on the algorand blockchain, matic which runs on the polygon blockchain.
Any cryptocurrency without its own blockchain is referred to as a token.
Currently, Kumo wallet supports coins.
