if people started educating themselves instead of hanging around here...

[LouVandetta]

People are expecting that with bitcoin they could become rich in one night.
No, they cannot. These newbies problems is typical.
They just eat what other people's told them to do.
Without learning how the market goes and all.

[pdpanzer]

People don't educate themselves they expect other people to do it for them. Now Technically when it comes to bitcoin education is comes from forums like this and also this is one of the trusted forms &  the most of the administration is putting out true information but with Bitcoin this is basically the type of education that they're going to have to go with it to get a good base foundation and then go from there.

Do you educate yourself about gamma decay and radioactive isotopes when you plug your phone? Bitcoin is supposed to be for the people, to protect what they own and make it safe. To make it simple, still. Now many people own, and see the nuclear companies threatening to destroy the public utility, or forcing people to choose sides, or choses to be taken by then. But more still, it's like they paid 50 years of electricity, and don't know what to do. Understanding what is really going on is MUCH more complicated than understanding quantum and general relativity-there is no single consensus on what is going on or what will happen.

So if instead of indulging in how you get it, while not explain it for the rest?

i am not trying to turn this into another one of many speculation topics, i just want to point out that if people started educating themselves about bitcoin itself and the market and how price moves instead of hanging around bitcointalk and reddit and waiting for random newbie accounts to tell them "panic this is the end" they would have been a lot more successful in their lives...

People are influenced by other people, no doubt, that is how peer pressure works. You are fine to have your own opinion and I won't bash you on that, and if you think bitcointalk and reddit are useless that is fine. But bitcointalk does educate people, and if you take a look around, you will see heaps of people's questions answered and them being relieved.

Actually, hanging around here is the way to learn more about bitcoin and its market. I was a newbie here and I have learned a lot from each crash and from other people. Some of you think that it is wast of time in here but to me, I believe that this forum is the best place to obtain more knowledge from veteran members. There are many sections around here. Also, you can start talking with other people so that they can teach you more about the bitcoin market

I think I agree, there are so many things that we can learned from this forum, sometimes internet can mislead people with false information and in this forum we can know how Bitcoin works and how to avoid scammer, I can get so many information from this forum and the most important it's the place to share experience

[bs.glory]

People must actually know what they were doing when they joined the signature campaigns, earn bitcoins, mine, and trade. A simple good rule of thumb is to post as if you're not part of any signature campaign, also, they need to explore venture-off-the-beating-path

Yes I agree with what you say, many of them do think they can get rich quickly using bitcoins, what they think is just a fantasy they do not understand how the price goes on whether it is going up or down, and some of the risk that Will arise in it, if want to be rich I think there is effort and struggle to achieve that goal, there is no instant way to get rich

[xhienigat]

I agree, but sad to say there are some who are not open to educating themselves about bitcoin instead are only riding whatever news or any nuisance they could hear or read about it. If everyone would've educated themselves then a lot wouldn't have panicked and sold their bitcoin because of the rumors about August 1.

I think so too. For example people often watch TV and their opinions are formed based on what the media is telling them. It can be a pretty tricky relationship and a lot of people dont realize how easily they are influenced

For me as well, first when I started I was all about Twitter and YouTube and following others. You learn eventually

[eli77]

Yes. We love reading topics that can help educating people especially about Bitcoins.
If we have new informations, we would love to share it in the forum.
Thank you to all generous people here.

I think you have made a troll post, seriously you are a member now and that means you have been here more than months, and you believe that legendary and all the higher ranked members care about some newbie coming here and saying hey folks it's ending and they would like oh shit thanks for the advice. For your records none of the newbies post ate ever considered valid or sat much thought is given, the legendary and high ranked members will only intervene when they feel he's badly informed, and every one been doing his bit, people do not like to listen about Bitcoins and it's a pain, if you missed there were many threads where we had discussed how to get family and others on Bitcoins. But it's not that easy. May I ask you, why you are here and not gone to educate people and realize first hand how bad it gets.

Come on guys just chill. Don’t take the OP too serious, I feel pity for him for raising this type of question or comments. Look at this thing hanging out into bitcointalk, he thinks that we have joined this forum for fun sake.

If it was a gambling website then it might be a hangout anyway let me tell you that I have learned a lot from this forum and today at the position I am and whatever understanding I have about the bitcoin system is due to this forum, I feel blessed being here.

that is true when a person buy some bitcoin he start dreaming for large profit even without maximum amount of bitcoin he thinks like this but I think bitcoin is a name of patience and care if you will remain careful and will spend good time in collecting info about bitcoin then it is beneficial but if a person failed in getting bitcoin it will help you a lot.

lol dude everyone who is here is because this place can educate you the best about bitcoin, there is all the informations you ever need here to understand how bitcoin work, and what are the implications of this upcoming fork or chain split like you want

I think people in this forum is spending so many time doing bitcoin because they know to earn/make money in bitcoin. I think we are all educated here. Someone will not spend to much time on something if they think they will not get anything. They will think and feel that it is just a waste of time. They will rather go to instagram or twitter or facebook. It is quite boring here IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND BITCOIN so why hang out on here? So we are all educated that is why we choose here than any other site.

How many people actually use the forum for that though? I mean, nobody gives a sh*t about what some newbie account says.
Same on Reddit, stupid posts simply get downvoted so nobody sees them.

The majority of people on this forum are here because of sig campaigns and to have a somewhat decent discussion about news that involves Bitcoin.

And most legit* newbies are here to get some help with basic things.

*People who made their first account to ask some questions

Some newbies have been into Bitcoin for a long time, but they have not stumbled onto this site yet. So some of them might talk some sense, if

you take the time to listen to them. A lot of people think forum activity/rank determine someone's status or level of knowledge and that is simply

not true. A lot of accounts are bought by newbies and you can see that when they post. 

[LodisMcguire]

Well some people are using this forum to educate themselves about how bitcoin work
There are people who just waiting the opinion of someone and act based that
Eventually if someone have tried the taste of profit and loss it will make him know about how crypto world work

[Bunsomjelican]

people always want the easy way to do everything. and spending time and learning stuff like learning
what a fork is
if there really is any danger,
what is soft fork and what is hard fork and what are the risks
or generally to learn trading.
...
instead they want to be told what to do, by a friend or worst an stranger on the internet. and they all want to get there in the shortest time possible!

whenever one of my friends ask me about bitcoin these days i tell them  don't bother me unless you are willing to spend time to learn some stuff

But in this kind of business here in bitcoin world, It is true that most often people like an easy way to earn bitcoin big. which is not realistic in the actual scenario. So educating ourselves into bitcoin is a good idea actually especially if the person is very open minded into bitcoin.

I think you are right but still there are many other reasons to came here . Because many types of information from different different places we can get at this single place .
And also every site that is officially better  needed to promote here because this is official place where big big nitcoiners can easily understand about it and take interest .
And also if any newbie that cannot invest a small penny of money then he can start earnings here by join the campaign .
So I think this is best place for information about btc and tarts earnings with zero investment .

Exactly true. This is a tremendous idea to understand the bitcoin and to know how does it works and what are the procedures related to the bitcoin through which bitcoin has to go through. If we were all well educated about the bitcoin then I guess segwit would have not been an issue of such a hot discussion nor would be the hard fork. The truth is that most of the people are unaware of the technological up gradations and procedures which will make bitcoin more powerful.
