If you're just getting started with cryptocurrency, there are several methods to get your first couple of euro of cryptocurrency to put in your wallet.

Did you know that the Crypto part of Revolut has a section called Learn? You can earn around €10 in free crypto from doing some lessons (and they've recently finally added the option to withdraw your bitcoin from your account to an external wallet address! )
