Yes! You can buy as much as you can afford. In this case you will own a piece of Bitcoin and your money will grow as Bitcoin grows.

Question 4

How do I see my money and prevent losing it all?

Accepted Answer

This is a question we have been asked a few times. The best answer to this is to use stable coins. A stable coin is a digital asset that is pegged to the US dollar or other cryptocurrencies. We suggest selling to a stable coin pegged to the US dollar to avoid volatility in the market. Here is a brief example.
 
You have invested $100.00 in Bitcoin and have made 50% profit.
Your Bitcoin is now valued at $200.00
You want to protect your profit from a market crash and losing it.
You sell $100.00 BTC (Bitcoin) to USDT (Tether coin).

Now you have $100.00 in BTC and $100.00 in USDT
If the market were to crash and BTC were to drop by 50% for example.

You will have $50.00 in BTC and $100.00 in USDT.

You have protected your profit and can either use it to buy more BTC at a lower price or withdraw to your bank account when needed.
