Bitcoins can be purchased directly through cryptocurrency exchanges, such as Coinbase, GDAX, Kraken, and Gemini. (Gemini was founded by the Winklevoss twins). People sign up for an account online and then buy the bitcoins through a bank account transfer, credit card, wire transfer, or, in come cases, even a PayPal account. (Some don't accept credit cards because the transaction can be reversed with a call to a credit card company). On Coinbase, a person can withdraw money by transferring cash to a bank account or PayPal account. Trading and withdrawal fees vary from exchange to exchange, so it's best to shop around. Keys to the bitcoins are stored in a digital wallet.


Ether can be purchased on such exchanges as Coinbase and GDAX.
