In bitcoin 5 years now, still feel like i'm newbie, i'm not, i'm old school

[posternat]

I sometimes feel that i came late to bitcoin because i got in during 2012, then i was late to the show, but now i am like old skool.  Have seen all this shit before and am like ,,,, "what ever"  trust me me newbies , or dont its the bitcoin way.  we have been down this road before, just dont sell or trade into alts you will regret it.    learn from my mistakes.  

Maybe you just made  a wrong choice of coin where you trade on and maybr that is not for you to be in. There were some people around who can prove to you that they have been successful on their altcoins.

Nice thread, OP.   

I sometimes feel that i came late to bitcoin because i got in during 2012, then i was late to the show, but now i am like old skool.  Have seen all this shit before and am like ,,,, "what ever"  trust me me newbies , or dont its the bitcoin way.  we have been down this road before, just dont sell or trade into alts you will regret it.    learn from my mistakes.  

It's a healthy approach IMO.

The whole of the 21st century is probably going to be this way, not just Bitcoin. If you don't keep learning, and learn fast, you'll be left so far behind so quickly that you'll get (figuratively or perhaps even literally) eaten.

And nice insight there, CB.

I got in in late 2013 with essentially no programming skills or experience.  I had to start from scratch, but did have a little help along the way at the beginning from people I did not know.  I agree that individual learning will be very important going forward, but what happens to all those who cannot learn "everything they need to know"?

Or is that when we allow the machines to take over?

I can completely understand you. I'm in Bitcoin since early 2013 and sometimes still get that feeling and thinking that I haven't used all my opportunities right, that I could have learned more that I should have been more successful with Bitcoin. But that it's probably normal, it's in human nature that we always want mor, always want better.
But we are not newbies, we have a lot valuable experiences, don't forget that.

The same feeling as I feel though I'm not that really old with bitcoin since I just knew this last year 2016. And the thing is that we need to had a continuous learning process or else we will feel sorry about it. Good thing that you had some good insights about this and look on what's happening right now, the price seems to be rising again hopefully this will be a positive uphill.

i totally agree with you, Since 2014, I am in bitcoin community, and i feel that i don't know a lot of things in cryptocurrency in general bitcoin. Day by day, I understand that by watching members posts in different domains here and i tried to higher my knowledge.

There will always be people who have been successful trading altcoins, in the same way there will be people who won the lottery.  Altcoin trading can be a good idea if you're really good at it but newbies jump into buying altcoins because they think that that coin will be the future when the chance of it actually happening is near nil like in the case of DASH.
