Nice to hear success stories. There are probably other people who invested early, pulled out at the right time, and are now millionaires.

When Eddy Zillan first started trading in cryptocurrencies, he was too young to open an account on the trading platform, Coinbase, which requires its users to be at least 18 years old. But at age 15, Zillan glossed over the sites terms of agreement and opened an account on Coinbase and another trading platform called Kraken, cautiously purchasing $US100 worth of the cryptocurrency ethereum.


So... could they fuck him over over this? lol

I think you just withdraw it and spend. The article links to his Instagram. I posted a pic in the OP he does a lot of bragging. So he must have been able to pull out a lot of it.

Yes, places like Newegg let you spend Bitcoin at least at one point. I think they stopped accepting it, though, due to the large price fluctuations and the fees can be stupidly high to spend them.

You buy and sell it for US dollars, just like stocks.

He would have needed atleast a few grand to make millions. Where the hell is a 15 year old getting thousands of dollars to put into this shit?

More likely his parents, pretty rare for 15 year old Americans to have ever had a real job.
