    I understand what your saying, and I agree for the situation you describe, however I don’t think you appreciate my view point. The process I follow when purchasing services is to only purchase the exact amount I require at the time, in fact the check out process only allows me to do just that.

      How does that work though? Do you pick a cryptocurrency at checkout on for example steam, and then it charges your creditcard or bank instantly to the crypto currency and then instantly steam? I do not use crypto currency so i don’t know if that is a thing. Is that what you mean?

        Yes, that’s one way to do it. Another way is to pick some amount you can afford to save and buy bitcoin every month or so. Hold it for a few years and always spend your oldest coins first. For example $20 from 2020 buys $200 worth of stuff now.
