It isnt really bad though for you to lean up with others success and steps that they had made.Its just not necessary for you to copy every single step that had been done though.
Creating your own path is a must but you should do all sorts of things and not just having those plans in mind if you havent dont any actions yet.
Basically with achieving your full potential that might lead you to success, you need to figure out who you truly are, I remembered bruce lee from ads way back before saying that you don't need to copy someone to find your self, you just need to be you, and with that, you can develop the best personality you could have and that personality will drive you to have better future, including making your financial status better, having good jobs, and becoming the best which you could use to build business that are crypto related and might as well to gain more profit. Remember, you will not get rich if you stay as an employee.
