these are questions for Matrix for lots of reasons, but here are my 2 cents:
just use BTC, only purchase what you need and when you need it, and IMO the only wallet you should use is a local wallet (using Bitcoin Core, it’s bitcoin’s reference implementation)
Strongly advise against treating crypto like an investment or safe store of value - better to think of it as a short-term currency to facilitate a transaction.

Buy a bit more than you need so you don’t accidentally get screwed over by fluctuating values or the transaction fees and such!
Edit: I personally use the electrum wallet.
that’s good advice, especially since there can be a bit of lag between when you convert fiat currency to BTC and when you’re able to spend the BTC.
