What is Cryptocurrency? (The 30-Second Version)
Cryptocurrency is digital money. Just like you have dollars or euros in your bank account, you can have Bitcoin (BTC) or USDT (Tether) in a digital wallet on your phone. You buy crypto with your normal money (credit card or bank transfer), and then send it to QSC to pay for your order. That's it.
QSC Peptides accepts two types of cryptocurrency: Bitcoin (BTC) and USDT (ERC-20). This keeps costs lower for everyone by avoiding credit card processing fees β which is why QSC can price Retatrutide so competitively.
Bitcoin vs USDT β Which Should You Use?
USDT (Recommended for Beginners) β
USDT is a "stablecoin" that always equals exactly $1 USD. No price fluctuation between when you buy it and when you send it. If your order is $230, you send $233 of USDT (a small buffer for fees), and that's exactly what QSC receives. Simple, predictable, no surprises.
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin's price fluctuates constantly. Between the time you buy Bitcoin and the time you send it (usually 10β30 minutes), the price might move slightly. This is why buying a buffer (5β10% extra) is recommended. Works perfectly fine, but slightly more complicated for first-timers.
Our recommendation: Use USDT for your first order. Once you're comfortable with the process, Bitcoin works just as well.
Step 1: Get a Crypto App (2 minutes)
Download one of these trusted apps on your phone. All allow you to buy crypto with a credit card or bank account:
| App | Best For | Countries | Supports |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coinbase β | Easiest for beginners | 100+ countries | BTC + USDT |
| Cash App | Americans (simplest) | USA, UK | BTC only |
| Kraken | Europeans | 190+ countries | BTC + USDT |
| Binance | Asia / Global | Most countries | BTC + USDT |
| Bybit | Global alternative | Most countries | BTC + USDT |
For US researchers: Coinbase or Cash App. Cash App is the absolute simplest if you only need Bitcoin.
For European researchers: Coinbase or Kraken. Both support EUR deposits.
For AU/CA/Global: Binance or Bybit have the widest geographic coverage.
Step 2: Create Your Account (5 minutes)
- Open the app and tap "Sign Up" or "Create Account"
- Enter your email and create a strong password
- Verify your email (check inbox, click the link)
- Verify your identity β all legitimate exchanges require a photo ID (driver's license or passport) and a selfie. This is required by law (KYC β Know Your Customer) and takes 5β30 minutes to approve. It's the same as opening a bank account.
- Once verified, you're ready to buy crypto
Your ID is kept private and secure. This is a legal requirement for all regulated financial services, not something unique to crypto. Coinbase and Kraken are publicly listed companies with billions in customer assets.
Step 3: Add Payment Method (1 minute)
- Go to Settings β Payment Methods
- Tap "Add Payment Method"
- Choose Credit/Debit Card or Bank Transfer
- Enter your card or bank details
Credit/debit card: Instant, but usually 2β3% fee. Bank transfer: Takes 1β3 business days but usually lower or no fee. For a one-time order, credit card is fine. For regular orders, bank transfer saves money.
Step 4: Buy Crypto (1 minute)
- Tap "Buy" in your app
- Select Bitcoin (BTC) or USDT
- Enter the dollar amount β buy slightly more than your order total (add $10β30 to cover network fees)
- Tap "Buy" β confirm
- Crypto appears in your wallet within seconds (for card purchases)
How much extra should you buy? USDT network fees: typically $1β3. Bitcoin network fees: typically $1β5. Buying $10β30 extra is a safe buffer that ensures you can complete the transaction without coming up short.
Step 5: Place Your QSC Order (2 minutes)
- Go to qscpeptide.com β Retatrutide products
- Add your products to cart
- Click "Proceed to Checkout"
- Fill in your shipping details
- Select Bitcoin or USDT ERC-20 as payment method
- QSC will display a wallet address and the exact amount to send
Step 6: Send Payment (2 minutes)
- Open your crypto app (Coinbase, Cash App, etc.)
- Tap "Send"
- Copy-paste the wallet address from QSC checkout β never type it manually
- Enter the exact amount shown on the QSC checkout page
- Double-check address and amount
- Tap "Send" β confirm
β Critical: Always copy-paste the wallet address. Never type it manually. One wrong character sends your payment to the wrong address permanently β crypto transactions are irreversible. QSC's wallet address will appear at checkout β copy it directly from there.
Payment confirms in: USDT: 2β5 minutes. Bitcoin: 10β30 minutes. After confirmation, QSC processes your order within 1β3 business days and sends a tracking number by email.
