#Using UnoCoin to buy and manage BitCoins for personal purposes

I plan to use UnoCoin to create an SIP for BitCoin. Unocoin | India's Bitcoin Wallet

###Risk There are some things you need to understand before getting started with Bitcoin. Bitcoin transactions are irreversible. The Bitcoins you buy will be sent to your Unocoin wallet or to your own bitcoin address provided. If you lose or delete your own bitcoin wallet, you will lose your Bitcoins in it and we can’t help you to restore them. Remember to backup and secure your wallet. The Bitcoin market is very volatile and prone to bubbles and rapid price swings. The market price changes over time so your Bitcoins may be worth less in the future. In fact, they may even become completely worthless. Bitcoin is not backed by any entity. Neither Unocoin nor anyone else has an obligation to buy back your Bitcoins in the future. Never spend more money on bitcoins than you can afford to lose.

###UnoCoin Terms and Conditions
