Suis-je prêt(e) ? Une liste de vérification pour débutants

I understand crypto prices can fall sharply, quickly, and without warning

Not "probably won't" — genuinely can, and has, many times.

I could lose everything I put in and it would not affect my rent, bills, or savings goals

This is the single most important box on this page.

I know the difference between a wallet on an exchange and a wallet only I control

I am in no rush, and I am not being pressured by anyone to act quickly

Urgency is the single most common tool scammers use on beginners.
