Buy Bitcoin for Under $100 in Canada
You don't need thousands of dollars to start buying Bitcoin. Start small!
At 1Bitcoin.ca, you can buy as little as $20 worth of Bitcoin — and start building your position today.
You Don't Need to Buy a Whole Bitcoin
One of the biggest misconceptions: you have to buy a whole Bitcoin (worth tens of thousands of dollars). This is completely false.
Bitcoin is divisible to 8 decimal places. The smallest unit is called a satoshi (or “sat”) — 1 Bitcoin = 100,000,000 satoshis.
Example: If Bitcoin is at $100,000 CAD, a $50 purchase buys you 0.0005 BTC (50,000 satoshis). That’s real Bitcoin — owned by you, sent to your wallet.
