Bitcoin Forum

Getting into crypto is not as easy as abc, as a newbie you will feel stupid at some point or even look stupid due to the question you ask or how you relate with people. Scammers will try to scam you the moment you ask a noob question in the telegram group. Hackers will also try to steal from you by tricking you into giving them your private keys/ recovery phrase.

This crypto world is a jungle but you're in a forum where you can learn almost everything you need to learn, there are experts here ready to assist you and guide you, all you need to do is ask. But first you must read the rules, it will take awhile to get a hang of most things here as i am still learning the rules too.

Don't give up or feel too stupid, don't be in a hurry to post just to increase activities. Read and learn, study the high rank members posts and threads. Spend time in Beginners section.

Bottom line is crypto is not for the weak, you need to be strong and do alot of research.

It's like many things in life - if you get too greedy or try to run before you can walk, then you will have a lot of problems. It is quite easy for a new person to enter into crypto if they go with a company like Coinbase and buy a fixed amount to just sit on. If you're looking for ways to multiply or get more bitcoin, that's where it becomes a lot more of a grey area. You also have to be more wary of any software you might be installing if you have large amounts of bitcoin, because hackers are increasingly targeting it. The anonymity of bitcoin could be one of its advantages, but makes tracking it down when it's stolen pretty difficult to do. As you say, learn and research as much as possible when starting out - take it very slow because there are a lot of devious people out there trying to get hold of your cash.

How come a noob can be strong if they will not experience being weak?

Let them become stupid and weak during their early days in crypto.

In a matter of time, they will soon graduate at that level, slowly grow up and become knowledgeable. Let their fingers be pulled one by one because of their bad experiences.

Financial markets are not for mental weak investors. They will shake hands and exit with losses. Their losses are big because they are brave when price pumps but are weak when price is dumped or corrected.

Problem is many come into crypto to earn without bringing in any fund while some fomo into a investing and losing alot eventually.

It's true that one must learn to crawl before walking but we could avoid chapped knees while crawling too right?

Not true, there aren't weak people or whatsoever you like it to call but there are only people aren't interested to join in cryptocurrency.  I agree that it is difficult to learn about cryptocurrency and put it into application but this is nothing to worry about because it can be learn. Just like when I was new I had made a lots of confusions but then later on as I tried it I was even gets excited knowing that this technology is new and  that made it even good to learn because of its great features that has been brought or introduce.

There is no strong before weak. There is no master before noob. Crypto is one of the most difficult study areas that can be learned because it is a new thing, not many people go into it, and not many kinds of literature that can explain the theory about it as many as another study areas such as flat money and bank. When you feel weak in crypto but you really wanna be a master on it, don't be worry! Because this is a natural reaction for someone who is learning a new thing and really strange for him. I couldn't agree more, crypto is not for the weak because it needs someone who has the feeling like a fighter.

When you learn about crypto, you will face the advantages and disadvantages. If the loss is found for the first time, all you have to do is evaluate the mistakes yourself. What is the main cause of the problem, and find a solution to the problem? There are many advantages and there are many downsides if we are right or wrong to step into the crypto world. Because those who have high profits will also have a high risk, so only someone who has a warrior spirit can explore this crypto world.

Like a toddler who is just learning to walk, it will be a long process first. He has to learn to move his body, start crawling, start standing, start standing without holding on, start walking, and walking. He will experience many falls and rise again until he can really walk. There are no instant results.

Stay enthusiastic for those of us who are exploring crypto, never give up until we become masters in crypto. Continue to learn and be tough in finding sources of knowledge, both from friends in this forum who are more experienced, reading a lot of literature, and other sources. Quote of the day that I want to share, no results betray efforts :)

Weak people that the OP are talking about are those who are not courageous to invest in cryptocurrency.

Uninterested people is very different from weak people, because they knew what crypto is, how it works, and its benefits but they are not interested or they think that it is a waste of time.

We have nothing to do with them if they chose not to invest on cryptocurrency, but those weak people can be encourage to invest on it. Don't say that bitcoin is not for the weak, bitcoin is free for all who wants to invest on it and it takes a lot of time for it to learned and studied. It takes a matter of time in order for you to know how determined you are in growing your cryptocurrency in the market.

one can be new to cryptocurrency world but not new to life (wasn't born yesterday). majority of crypto related scams are too obvious that it is surprising how some people fall for it. in fact this type of people will never learn, they will just lost a lot of money and then go away.

for example take these investment sites that promise a huge profit per day for just depositing your bitcoin with them. that is an obvious scam! or all these ICO scams that claim they are changing the world and moving mountains just by releasing a garbage token! you don't have to be a cryto-expert to see past their bullshit.

If you do enter with gusto and stick around you will certainly learn a lot about yourself, and the nature of others. The life lessons people have picked up through being involved in this would certainly make for an interesting read.

In general my opinion of humanity has lowered considerably through getting involved in this, and it wasn't all that high to begin with. Greed sure is an overwhelming emotion.

Same thing with every industry you are trying to get into, truth is, you will always feel uneducated when you are starting, no one starts something as a genius. The only thing you should do is to never start learning, and strive to be good. And because you decided to be here, then it is your sole responsibility to improved. I don't want to call them weak, it's better to call them starting. And I may also add that being a newbie isn't a reason for  to be baited in the world of scams, cause scams are also there outside the cryptocurrency. As a newbie, they need to be careful and to be hungry to learn something, not to be hungry going for the money even without learning a single thing.

The hardest part about crypto is that there's too much garbage around. There's a ton of shitcoins that sound good to unqualified people, there's a lot of crappy news sites that produce low value articles every few minutes, there's too much bloggers and wannabe educators/influencers who don't understand themselves and just spread misconception or shill for some shitcoins. Crypto at its core isn't that hard, at least the basics of it, reading one good book, like Mastering Bitcoin, would already put you far ahead of an average "crypto enthusiast".

Well some people are not just weak in Crypto but all they need is to be educated and given healthy orientation about Cryptocurrency. Crypto doesn’t require any muscular advantage as it’s a digitized currency so being weak in Cryptocurrency to my understanding is the lack of knowledge about the activities of crypto. There  are still lots of beginners who are desperate and willing to learn about Cryptocurrency and in their quest for these knowledge and out of curiosity they fall in the hand of scammers and con men.

There is always a starting point in any journey and every professional today was once a novice. It’s all depends on time, determination and the ability to improve on oneself daily. So we should channel our energy in helping newbies in Cryptocurrency and considering them as weak vessels.

Most of the members start with a "newbie", rank, term, or any called as the beginner time by the time they experience a lot of things to do by that they can encourage themselves to learn more and gather more information to make themselves aware on the things happen. Also, it's better to support other members too because sometimes they are good and knowledgeable members but because of the "hierarchy" of ranking some of them are getting set aside, but still, there are few of them are getting out on the box and showing that they are a useful member too those are the one who ranks up immediately because they share all they know.
Pushing yourself to hunt and courage to get more and not to stay weak into the jungle.

Crypto is one of the domains where the main way you learn is through your own mistakes. There are lots of things you simply do not get unless you make them. Unexperienced crypto members who are getting scammed by complete strangers on Telegram should take that as one of the biggest and most important life lessons they seem not to understand yet: do not trust humans, because you are all on your own.

It is not for the weak, but if you are smart enough to get through and take every negative thing as yet another lesson, you will get through successfully and in time, you will become strong as well.

There you go! You nailed it! Before these people became crypto legends, they are stupid and weak in the first place. Not just for a day, or a week, or a month, but it took them a very long while to finally overcome their stupidity and weakness in this industry.

I’ve entered crypto since mid-2017, and I had to admit that until now, I am still stupid and weak. But the difference? I’ve learned a lot and when I take it to the next level, the difficulty also rises and from that new level I became weak and stupid again. But I keep learning and grinding all the way until I’m getting used to it. I never claim myself to be at the top already, because I still made mistakes in terms of trading decisions, etc. I swallowed my pride because I want to be an empty cup to absorb new learning in the crypto, blockchain and DeFi space.

I would say that patience is the most important thing in this crypto story after all  :D
Many who were impatient and sold bitcoin very cheaply now regret it.
Bitcoin and crypto are not for those in a hurry but for those who are willing to wait for the right moment  ;D
I agree that this forum is the best place to learn about crypto.

Being Noob is not a matter of shame. Every expert was a noob at some stage.
What matters is how eager and willingly you want to learn. watch videos on youtube to learn basics, clear your doubts on forum(no matters how stupid it is) and then try to earn, trade or Hodl crypto. I know crypto world is bit tricky, and scammers are there to scam you at every stage. But don't worry, everybody has passed this stage.
Just a tip: Invest less at the beginning, keep calm and check twice before taking a step(like transfer or trading etc.) And when you learn and gain confidence, do it in your style.

Cyrpto is the excessive volatility. The prices of cryptocurrencies on swapping platforms stand up and come down comically over a short period of time. In this matter it demand to have a great extent of knowledge and tolerance is the most significant in cryptocurrency.

This is already given IMO. The first thing first people should know about cryptocurrency is this if ever they want to buy some cryptocurrencies for investment purposes. But if you will get into cryptocurrencies for innovation and technology, you probably learn some basic things first, like how these works, what is the purpose of this or that.

I guess people are not into technology when they buy first their Bitcoin since Im sure they are there to buy and earn since they are informed by the one who introduced it to them that they can possibly get a profit on it. And those technological benefits will just comes next one they explore things and locate those helpful platforms around.

Every investments that Involves our Money of something in similar needs our toughness and Strong character so It is not only in crypto that we need not to be weak but in everything in our life,.
But indeed that Here in this market we must be ready in all obstacles specially when the fall happens and the decision is tougher to Sell or not.
But after we carry to decide rightfully ?then the feeling of success is always been there.

Any type of long term investing is not for the weak really - it's very easy to spend money but very hard to keep money for future needs. I remember being younger and only living for the current day, that was a lot more fun but quite unstable. Nowadays I get enjoyment from building up assets and investments that give me more freedom to choose my future. Saving for a rainy day is a good mentality to build up, although it just means spending less money than you earn. Crypto should really be treated as a segment of a diversified portfolio - which should level out all of the volatility that comes along with it.

we all started our journey in crypto as a newbie, no one started as a professional, as we experience downfall and scam, we gain knowledge and experience, that never to fall in the same mistake twice in our lives and in cryptocurrency, investing in cryptocurrency is a risk that even with years of experience, might make mistakes, same as in our life its a learning process, don't be afraid to make mistakes in cryptocurrency, its a learning process every time, don't be afraid of failures

All we were newbies in crypto. And day by day we are learning about it. Yes, if anybody doesn't understand it after remaining in this forum for a long time then crypto is not for them. Again it also not a tough thing that people can not understand it for a long time learning about it. :)

This is a common misconception that crypto is not for the weak people can learn a lot about crypto even if they want to. For those who have no idea about crypto this forum is more helpful for newcomers to analyze various sites and watch videos on YouTube. They can easily learn about crypto by watching videos blockchain technology is the answer to the world's weaknesses. A competitive opportunity to earn cryptocurrency for the weak worldwide which can liquidate and improve their existing capital.

Just embrace the first rule, not your key not your coins and no hackers or scammers can fool you into giving them your private keys

Not really if you just allocate time and effort into understanding the many things about Cryptocurrency in short, educating yourself


Useless posts will get deleted and if you are spamming you will likely get a ban

Learning Cryptocurrency is an unending process you will be left behind on something new if you stop

It's easier for a crypto newbie to buy top altcoins and hold for many years but when you have a desire of multiplying your altcoins that exactly where things get more complicated, learning should first come to mind before anything else or else you will easily throw away your altcoins before you know it.

This is why there is the need to learn and know who you are talking to.  Crypto is for all including the weak for whatever you mean by weak.
If someone told you something, you just have to ask not just on telegram group. But don't trust everything that is said there. You have to realize that anyone will scam, heck your wife will even tell you lies.

Ask the forum, you will know who tells the truth in a public forum, not on telegram that they can delete messages.

It is not easy and it will never be easy to start, particularly in a matter that has a broad topic. It is okay to feel confused, you are just starting and you can’t expect to understand everything easily and quickly. As for scammers, they take advantage of one’s unawareness, so be vigilant. If a moment came and you end up losing, why give up? When you can improve yourself by making time to reflect on the action you made and learn from it. Don’t let be a hindrance for you to continue, instead, use it. It is okay to start with nothing, as knowledge and experience can be obtained along your journey. In addition, you don’t only need to be strong, you also need to be resourceful, critical, and judicious.

Crypto is not for the weak and lazy person...
knowing and making money from crypto is luck but not everyone can do it, it takes patience and also smart work so you don't take the wrong step. lazy to ask questions and do your own research will only make you go faster away from crypto, especially this forum, therefore don't give up easily and must continue to make good posts.

We have a saying here that you are your own bank, we all know that those working on banks are professional and highly educated people in their fields, they are all very knowledgeable on how to keep bank records and safeguard their client's money, now in Cryptocurrency if you are going to be your own bank you should learn everything you need to know, on how to protect your coin and keep a record of it.

Everything in this world comes with risk, and when there is risk, there are chances of changing your world/ the world. It is your decision if you want to change your world or the world by changing yourself. Nobody is strong from the beginning and they need experience to become strong, and trust me that even when you read high rank member's posts, you will still make a mistake at some point. There is no need to worry about, mistakes are the first step towards success and bring you experience too, so these mistakes are not weakness but your strength if you take them like that.

It's true though, We noobs are often stupid most time's but it's always basically because we don't have any idea about what's going on in the group's though, but we try our best to read and understand the informations been passed to us & from there we try our possible best to give a reasonable reply,

Thanks for the hints

"It is not for the weak."

Those words are true. Newbies who come to seek the opinion of other cryptocurrency enthusiasts and investors and only longing to hear what they want to hear such as easy profit and quick money.

But if they still don't understand that the crypto investments are not for the weak heart, they can't cultivate and stay in this market for long. Swings, plunge, corrections, pumps, dumps, or any term that we use. It's not for the weak-hearted investors.

Learning is part of investing and if a "weak" hearted investor starts to understand the whole thing, he'll eventually become strong in the process.

I believe that every people who joined the crypto world is not a strong hand in their beginning, and that is normal to see if you feel the same because we don't know anything about crypto, and we need to learn from many sources. They need to manage their emotion while staying at the crypto, and they need to manage their money to be used for trading or to invest in crypto.

There is no other way to understand crypto without learning because learning can help us to improve our knowledge and skills that will help us to gain the benefits from crypto. It needs time before we can have that such thing, and that is not for people who don't have passion for the crypto because they can be weak and leave crypto as soon as possible.

So if you want to stay at the crypto, especially in trading and investing, you need to keep learning and don't stop it although you can earn money because if you stop, you will miss something useful for you in the future. We all a Noob for the first time, but we have a choice to grow or stop learning.

They say it takes great courage to admitting errors and that which would reduce your integrity as you've just done and it's projects your caliber of user but then, the forum goes beyond a mare acceptance of what seems to be the reality of your status, it dares you to make moves that would change it and become a useful user to the community and that is what you must do. Learn, fine meaning in between every line and all would be added to you in the process.

Why do you say that it is easier to buy altcoins compared to bitcoin? I would obviously never suggest that newbies buy altcoins, when they probably don't even know and understand how Bitcoin works and what it can be used for. There isn't a single altcoin that can be considered a safer investment than bitcoin. It is important to understand the original concepts and ideas before extending your knowledge to alts.

Crypto isn't for the weak-hearted, but then again, which investment (if you look at bitcoin as an investment) is? You have to be ready to face the ups and downs. It's not that complicated really. Read about the technology, ask questions if you don't understand something, and understand that bitcoin doesn't grow on trees. There is no free money or free bitcoin so be willing to work for it.

You're right. Crypto is not for the feeble minded. There are times you lose, if you're weak you'll wave crypto goodbye forever and jeopardize your chances of winning in the future.

You won't be strong if you don't experience to be weak, just like our seniors here, at first, they also became noob as we are because they are still new and they don't have so much experience but as time goes by, experienced increases and knowledge increases as well. Gaining more knowledge will make you strong but that is not that easy to deal with because cryptocurrency is broad, maybe you have to start first at the basics, know what is a cryptocurrency, know what is blockchain, decentralization, etc.

Don't be so sad about not knowing many things about cryptocurrency, we have here this forum that will help us to understand more about cryptocurrency, we also have the internet, actually we all have the resources to learn, it will depends on on us if we are going to use it.

You don't have to be strong to get involved with crypto, I was once a weak person who knew nothing about crypto and made some unwise decisions but those mistakes are what get me more stronger today, without mistakes there is no room for solutions either..

Very well said. I think you have made a summary here, in the first three paragraphs, of the answers that newbies need to know upon entering and joining this forum. The keywords are there — ask, read, and learn. On point!

However, with regards to this part, I agree with what some members here said — you have to be weak first before you become strong. I mean, isn't that the case for almost everything? Think about it, every expert were once beginners. They were once weak, needed help and assistance from others, but they learned along the way. It didn't happen overnight. It takes time to become strong in anything.

No one comes out strong the first try. Being weak is part of it. But I get your point. If someone wants to last in this industry, in this community, then don't settle for being weak. Choose to be better and choose to be strong.

You can't be an expert the first time you start looking into crypto, many legendary members on this forum are once a weak person but through lessons after mistakes and learning over time they become stronger, this is also for all newbies today, do not be scared of making mistake and always have the zeal to learn more
