Are there readily online forums where women are not welcomed, or you wanted to tell us your gender in a mild way.

You have already assisted yourself. The more assistance you will give yourself is to read more and develop your knowledge of this forum and the entire cryptocurrency industry.

Welcome on board Mrs Louce. I hope you have read other members advice. You should read some beginners tips by exploring Help (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=help) and also other thread mentioned by other members. You should post here your own idea wheather someone like or not. Hence it is not customer care chat where you will get only positive reply. You may be criticized here but you have to learned from appreciation and criticism both.

Your main goal here is to learn about crypto currency so my first question is wheather you familiar with btc and other crypto yet or this is your first time you have heard about crypto currency and you have not invested (buy) any crypto before?



Are you joking? Loycev is reputed members and this member is totally newbie.

YouTube seems like a very unusual place to discover the forum through. But thinking about it, there would be a handful of accounts that'll link to this form when talking on historical topics related to Bitcoin and some altcoins.

Welcome to the forum. Good that you've gone through some of the basic posts on the Meta and Beginners & Help board.

You are good to go as it is. For any more specific knowledge you'll need related to any topic, use the search option to look around for it.

they are, but to be honest, no one would really care what gender you are, the main focus here in the forum is to discuss bitcoin, crypto-related things and other stuff that you might be interested in.

all you need is to ask, but don't forget to do your own research first, some questions you might have could easily be answered with just a few quick searches in the forum.

Welcome to the forum!

Why not, this forum allows for both men and women, there's no gender segregation here and we don't discriminate as well.

Hmm, seems like you've enjoyed the warm welcome by many of the forum's reputed members and some of them are still growing (Usually everyone is growing), I won't welcome you at all, haha just kidding I would like to give a good piece of information, you are new to the forum and in the crypto industry as well, make sure to establish basic learning about your fund's security, As after making any deposit you should worry about its custody and security and many users can help you to find a good topic on the forum to seek guidance.

On the other node, you need to establish a basic understanding of the Blockchain networks and their layers to avoid silly deposit mistakes, I won't say use Self Custody or Decentralized exchanges for security because you are new and things are a big hard there and costly as well. You can ask what ever you want to.

Happy learning!

Okay Louce, you’ve received many replies and answers regarding the question you asked on your post. It is very important that you go through them gradually and have an understanding of what each of the reply means and how it can help you through in the forum. What you should be aware of also is that; you can’t become perfect and a better crypto enthusiast without engaging in self-learning after you’ve gone through the forum posts yourself. It will increase you in understanding of what you’ve learnt better. Building yourself in the forum is one thing and understanding how the forum works and building yourself in the forum is also different. Try and do what works best for you as you need a lot of work input in order to become successful (knowledgeable) in cryptocurrency and also a better forum member.

Welcome aboard. Good thing that you already read the stickied threads in meta and in this board. Ask any question related to bitcoin and crypto that you want to understand, but make sure you have made a research first before asking.
Beware of engaging scammers here to avoid getting lured and scammed.
Feel free to read things in this site[1] for your knowledge to grow.

Don’t just learn, but enjoy every new insights that you will gain along your journey here.

Everybody is welcome here not only women. Good to have you in our midst, but what you need is for you to read the rules and regulations guiding the great forum. Try to read more than coment because if you are not familiar with the crypto terms used here, it will be hard for you to comprehend what the forum is all about. When you see merited post you look very closely to wlsee what made it to be merited from there you will know the difference between quality post and shitpost.

The forum is not gender-centric as we are less concern about people's sexes here which is why you could hardly know who's a female or male due to the anonymous system of the forum. The sharing of  knowledge, I mean useful knowledge concerning cryptocurrency and general knowledge is what the community is focused on. Therefore feel free to interact and ask questions without a low feeling as we all of equal rights here.

Things you should avoid while here are:
Plagiarism,
Spamming/shit posting,
Merit fishing,
and fear. Yea fear, avoid the feeling of fear of been criticized by other members based on what you independently want to express as your thoughts, as this has been one of the weakness of many newbies in the forum, etc.

 ;D sorry am not loycev
But if i may ask,who might it be?

Nice try :P

Me.

welcome to the forum my dear mate, Actually most of us don't know much About gender here , rather we only know username and learn from the quality posts the person creates.

However, the forum is comprised with both men and women who are crypto experts and who are knowledgeable enough to guide you to grow to any height that you wish to reach. just like you said knowing the forum rules and regulations will be your first step because it will aid you to know the (do's and don'ts) in the forum. note that for you to grow in the forum,  you must follow the footsteps of the high ranked members and read more of their threads because it will enable you to know how to make quality and reasonable post .

lastly , always have it in mind that any post you make here is subject to correction and don't feel very bad that your post is criticized because criticism is also part of the learning process and it will help you grow faster when it comes to making quality post. Always try and ask questions when necessary  and  feel very free to navigate the forum and visit different boards and see how the higher members make their posts in each of the boards  and know the boards that you are not allowed to contribute and respect it. once again welcome to the forum.

hey sis, we have dozens of women in the forum and the system of anonymity prevents their identity to be demystified, count yourself as not the only woman in the community as we are many here although the men are with the highest number but that is not withstanding as it doesn't change a thing. welcome to the forum brace yourself with all the information that have been provide to you in earlier comments and get familiarized with the forum activities and rules of conduct. Bear the in mind in this forum knowledge is what counts and not gender.

In theory and hopefully also in practice your gender is of no importance. Why do you bring it up anyway? I understand that in men dominated corners of the internet being and exposing yourself as a woman could be a challenge. For me it's of no importance. Just try not to reveal too much of your personal details. There's no need to do it and can harm your anonymity if that's important for you.

Your asking for "any help" is just too general in my opinion. Sounds like request for spoon feeding. Be more specific and you will certainly get input and help here. Just don't be lazy to try to search for answers yourself. Usually you learn more and with more satisfaction when you find and set pieces of a puzzle yourself than just watch others do it for you.

You've got plenty of links already. I'd start with https://learnmeabitcoin.com/ (https://learnmeabitcoin.com/) which is in my opinion easier to digest than Mastering Bitcoin (https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook), but still goes pretty deep if necessary. I use both sources regularly to brush up knowledge that faded away. Go through Beginners (https://learnmeabitcoin.com/beginners/) section and deep dive into Technical (https://learnmeabitcoin.com/technical/) where necessary or you dare.

Questions will arise, I'm sure. If you have those, try to find answers via the forum search (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=search) or use https://ninjastic.space/ (https://ninjastic.space/). Some effort to find solutions yourself is always a nice and appreciated habit. Can't find answers even with some search effort: you're welcome to ask specific questions.

Your welcome OP,  the forum is for everyone, since you said you have already gotten acquitted to the forum rules then no need to be telling you such, before you dive into anything you shoudl understand that crypt space is broad with so many projects and new developments and a lot to learn so you must be specific in what you want to know and start there, then I'll tell you to learn about security cause you know lots of scammers would approach you and try to lure you into investing in shit projects or tell you to send crypto to an unknown address, so it's your job to accept responsibility for your safety here.

Hi @Louce welcome to the bitcoin forum. Since you are new then surely you should spend more time in this forum hope you can learn more. The more time you give, the more you can learn. Remember one thing absolutely no one can ever learn. To learn a man must learn slowly. Remember the seniors the way they make the posts the way they make the replays who remember you make yourself like them hope you grow up very fast too. Also I would like to give you some extra advice never try to cheat in this forum you will die very quickly if you try to cheat.

Welcome to the forum. Every gender is welcome here, nobody cares about anyone’s gender here. That’s why, during registration, you won’t be asked to select your gender, everyone is treated equally here. You are definitely going to learn a lot here, just take your time to go through some posts on the forum. Make use of the search button if there is anything you are searching for. But when you can’t get an answer to your question or there is something you don’t understand, you can create a thread about it, and people are definitely going to help you out.

The OP claims she has gone through the forum rules, and I am sure she will understand all that you posted above. If you commit any offense on the forum here, then you are going to be punished, even if you are a beginner. There is something you didn’t mention above, which is to avoid posting with AI. That’s what lots of members are using to post, and if you are caught, then your account will be tagged.

You are welcome here, and it doesn't matter what gender you identify as because everyone is equally welcome in this forum. No one really cares whether you are male or female unless you specifically mention it. In fact, many people here keep their gender private, and that's perfectly fine. The Bitcoin forum isn't interested in knowing personal details like that; it's more about discussing Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Your privacy is respected here, so feel free to present yourself as any gender you like.

Understanding the rules and guidelines of the forum is essential, and it's great that you've already done that. Now, it would be beneficial for you to start exploring the pinned topics and different sections of the forum to gain knowledge about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. If there's anything you don't understand, don't hesitate to ask questions. Whether you come across here or elsewhere, feel free to inquire about anything related to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Asking questions is how we learn and grow in this community.

Welcome friend to the forum, like always, the seniors here have already given you enough links and thread to go and read up. I will also like to add that the forum is a place that when you are serious you are going to achieve your goals and that's why it's important to stay focus and try and engage in discussion and make sure you read alot and don't relent in asking questions and even if you are corrected don't take it personal because anyone that wants to grow always advice seriously.

To put it simply, crypto industry is an industry of selling big promises without even trying to deliver on them, because you can just abandon the project without any repercussions and start a new one. Crypto is all about talking about the bright future and never doing anything to achieve that. And this is reflected on the market where new coins can increase in price by x1000 when they get momentum and people are buying it just because it's growing fast, causing it to grow even faster, and then it crashes to zero when there's no new buyers and the holders take profits.

If you want to invest in something that has real value, stick with Bitcoin - it has actually useful properties that mean it can't go to zero even if it is overpriced. Unlike all the other cryptocurrencies that are never used and never will be used.
