Just come across this thread, interesting discussion. Have started to get interested in crypto over the last year as I have a friend who has been into it for a while. After starting getting some for free with a few "learn and earn" promotions on Coinbase and some dollar cost averaging in recent months I have a small amount of bitcoin (around $1000) split between 3 different exchanges in interest earning accounts. Don't feel confident enough to try trading the market so just been holding bitcoin and I like the idea of it earning more in interest.
Interest to hear more about the cold storage you use Paul. And is there any cold storage method that allows interest earning too or do you need to be on an exchange for that? So far I've found the Australian owned Swyftx to be easiest to buy from as you can transfer straight from your NZ bank account without the need for a middle man or credit/debit card fees. You can also withdraw straight to an NZ bank account for a flat $10 fee. Not tried that yet but gives me comfort that it's easy to get it out eventually.
Swytfx also have a podcast called 'Tapping into Crypto' roughly twice a week which has been helpful for learning too.
