Title: Advise courses or online literature
Post by: MiltonVines on October 14, 2020, 05:01:36 PM
Hi, I am interested in the topic of cryptocurrency and I want to sink more into the study of this topic.
Advise courses or online literature that provides up-to-date and systematic knowledge about cryptocurrencies.

Start with a simple one

Then try reading these books.

Then look at the answers of the interviewees to question 12, and you will find a lot of useful information.

Hi, these links or websites also may help you;

Screw cryptocurrencies, focus on bitcoin and the supplementary topics such as investing and finance. You're just going to mostly waste your time if you're going to focus on cryptocurrencies as a whole.

If you're more of an article guy: https://www.coindesk.com/learn
If you're more of a YouTube video guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1si5ZWLgy0
If you're more of a book guy: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1537000454

Best of luck.

no online courses for bitcoin I guess for this technology is not yet being approved so no one could apply for a an online learning course to teach for the technology but others I think are doing it already in decentralize manner or discreet so that they could not be found out on the teaching process in regard to cryptocurrency.

Yet, there are books already released about bitcoin and that will help you learn by reading. In the world of cryptocurrency all learning usually done by reading even here in the forum we had shared were through text so expect that your learnings will come from the text and somehow image especially to technical discussions that need representation.

This course is free.

https://www.edx.org/course/bitcoin-and-cryptocurrencies

If you want a certificate, you have to pay but if you are only for the course which makes it look formal for you to learn about bitcoin and cryptos then take the course.

Majority of the people here never got into any online course, we just learned through the process and advises of the people who were first before us.

If you're thinking about trading then that's a whole different area of study and mainly about psychology, both yours and the market's. By all means read up about crypto too but the really important stuff regarding trading has little to do with its specific ins and outs.

I think the input and output of capital flow in crypto market are important and it help us to know about the momentum of the market. The strong momentum, the bigger chance to see a trend keeps going up and vice versa. When the price is at low range and momentum suddenly see signal of increases I think it is a good signal for bull run.

When price is at high and momentum see sudden falls it is not a good signal and it it last for a while the bear market comes.
