New to the Forums, hello everyone!

[urbanmerchant]

Hello fellow BitcoinTalkers,

I've been lurking in the shadows of this forum for quite some time now, soaking up knowledge, gaining insights, and observing the vibrant discussions that unfold here. Today, however, I have finally mustered up the courage to break my silence and create an account. It may seem trivial to some, but joining this community has been a slightly intimidating step for me. Nonetheless, I'm thrilled to be here and eager to contribute to the discussions that I've been silently following.

I must admit, when I first stumbled upon the BitcoinTalk forums, I was immediately captivated by the depth and breadth of the discussions surrounding cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology, and the future of finance. The sheer wealth of knowledge shared by enthusiasts, experts, and skeptics alike is truly remarkable. It is here that I've come to appreciate the power of decentralized systems and the potential they hold to reshape our world.

While browsing the various threads, I couldn't find a dedicated space for introductions, so I decided to take this opportunity to introduce myself in this post. My name is urbanmerchant, and I am a strong believer in crypto economics and the transformative potential of blockchain technology. The idea of a decentralized, transparent, and immutable ledger system has fascinated me for years.

I firmly believe that cryptocurrencies have the ability to redefine how we perceive and interact with money. The ability to buy and sell goods and services using digital assets, instead of relying solely on traditional fiat currencies, presents exciting possibilities. By embracing cryptocurrencies, we have an opportunity to challenge the status quo and promote financial freedom, inclusivity, and economic empowerment on a global scale.

I look forward to engaging in discussions about various cryptocurrencies, exploring innovative blockchain use cases, and sharing valuable insights that can help us collectively navigate the complex world of crypto. I hope to learn from all of you and contribute my perspectives to foster a productive and open-minded community.

Let's remember that the strength of this forum lies in the diversity of its members, their experiences, and their ideas. We may not always agree, but through constructive discourse, we can challenge our assumptions, deepen our understanding, and drive the progress of blockchain technology forward.

Thank you for welcoming me into this vibrant community. I'm excited to embark on this journey with all of you, as we navigate the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology.

From your post it seems you are not new to crypto and the forum as well, the forum will be glad to accept your contribution in any form that will help it to improve. Welcome once again.

[urbanmerchant]

genuinely appreciate the warm welcome extended to me. I am committed to abiding by the rules and guidelines that govern this community. I understand the importance of maintaining a positive and respectful environment for everyone involved. I will make every effort to contribute constructively, engage in meaningful discussions, and adhere to the established guidelines.

Regarding the Marketplace and Altcoin sections of the forum, I kindly request your guidance on how to navigate these sections effectively. In the Marketplace, I would appreciate any advice on proper etiquette when conducting transactions, such as how to negotiate prices, ensure secure transactions, and handle disputes if they arise. Additionally, if there are any specific guidelines or rules pertaining to posting listings or responding to offers, please inform me.

In the Altcoin section, I would be grateful for your assistance in understanding the expectations and norms for discussing and sharing information about alternative cryptocurrencies. If there are any guidelines concerning the presentation of new altcoins, analyzing their potential, or discussing market trends, please let me know. It is important to me that I contribute in a manner that fosters insightful conversations and promotes the growth and knowledge of the cryptocurrency community within this forum.

I guess there is no need to welcome to the forum or provide you with the link to the rules of the forum since it's already obvious that you know them already.

I don't know why, but I feel very confident that this account does not belong to a new user, it might just be the fact that you already know so much about Bitcoin that's why, because in your profile I can see that you already have a vanity address there and it's not something to expect from a newbie account, aside from the fact that you used a vanity address newbies normally don't concern themselves with Bitcoin address setup in the first few hours after their account registration. But I could be totally wrong.

I just hope you are not one of those ban evaders who created a new account and then presented it to look like a newbie when has been lurking around so as not to arouse suspicious about their knowledge of the forum.

If you're interested in doing business, then you should consider learning more about trust feedback so that you don't end up doing business with a scammer and if possible make sure to avoid deals with newbie account as anything could happen and they have nothing to lose not even their account since it has no reputation whatsoever.

urbanmerchant, welcome to this forum!
Your very first post on this forum tells me that your contribution to the quality of the discussion on this forum will probably be greater than that of other newbie members, who usually already in their first post ask how to earn on this forum or get merit.
I agree that a lot can be learned on this forum, but not all discussions are of good quality and useful.
Each of us has our own reasons why we are interested in crypto and why we are on this forum.
Are you only interested in trading or do you want to know more about technology, or crypto mining, or are you interested in something else?
Based on your interests, choose the topics on this forum that you will follow, but do not neglect other sources of information about crypto, such as YouTube channels, social networks, Telegram groups etc.
If you want to invest in crypto, be aware that it is a high-risk investment and be well informed and analyze the crypto market in detail before making such a decision.
It is always important to have concrete investment goals and a clear exit strategy.

From your presentation above if I notice you are fast and smart in reading and understanding it. this is evident from the places you have visited and read the rules of the game. I think it's very good even though it seems that you are a beginner but your thinking and language are quite good, knowledgeable and educated. keep going guys and I'm sure you will quickly move up the class.

Such a lengthy post! Can't believe this is coming from a newbie.

I swear, the way the newbie twist grammar Jesus. This is a PhD in Bitcointalk newbie. The guy will do well if really the thread is from his whitepaper. As the op said he has been observing the forum from afar and reading the post day and night so he has acquitted himself well with the forum activities. Op even though you are a grammarian, you still need to equip yourself with the forum rules and regulations. I also join other reputation users to welcome you.

Op has the knowledge, despite of his/her rank which is he /she is a newbie being an Observer to this community will gave him knowledge about cryptocurrencies which pretty good and for sure we can learn a new things from her/him.  Also I am agree with the Comment above that Op must understand and follow the rules and regulations here in our community in order to prevent such loss.

I've been lurking in the shadows of this forum for quite some time now, soaking up knowledge, gaining insights, and observing the vibrant discussions that unfold here. Today, however, I have finally mustered up the courage to break my silence and create an account.

You've done well for atleast having the first victory over your fear and doubts and you've just unlocked the journey on bitcointalk, your posting enough is well composed unlike how some newbies post without you getting their particular point of direction, i don't know if actually this should be on bitcoin discussion board or beginner and help section but the main idea is to get you well informed about what's expected of you, which is the beginning of your learning of bitcoin and the forum, remain active and have a better experience ahead. Welcome to bitcointalk.org

[nakamura12]

Even though you are lurking in the forum for quite some time as you have explained but I would still welcome you to this forum for having an account after all this time. I also agree that I won't give some links or insights as you have been learning in the shadows and don't worry about such things or the reason why you didn't create an account here in this forum. Well, good luck in learning more and the courage to create an account here and one more thing, never be afraid to create an account because having an account will lead you to learn more and also have some access yo boards that you can't access.

[urbanmerchant]

I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the warm welcome and words of encouragement I have received thus far. In light of this, I would like to extend an invitation to crypto casinos, games, and betting platforms to promote and advertise their services free of charge on an external website, as well as through dedicated WhatsApp and Telegram groups. This opportunity aims to assist these platforms in expanding their user base and attracting new subscribers to their services.

I kindly request your assistance in identifying the appropriate forum thread where I can publish my post. I am considering two options: the Gambling boards available at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=56.0, or the Service Announcement Boards accessible at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=84.0.

Thank you for your guidance in this matter.

Menhn this Newbie really tried dam... I can't recall I wrote anything when I first came in Bitcointalk... It's all good please @ NEWSBIES take your time to enjoy the forum I bet with such long post, you will definitely be of good help to clearify many other newbies who love to read... 

[BIT-BENDER]

I would not say welcome rather I would say congratulations for finding the forum, you have really giving yourself a good boost of your aim was to learn more about Crypto-currency generally, but don't think you would be served it on a plate.

There are rules and regulations that guides the fourm.i believe you would do yourself a favor looking through it if you haven't already done that. also try to take you time, you aren't pressured to make a post, I think the stage you are requires you to give yourself time to learn basics.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

What it is now is newbie enthusiasm, and I hope you keep it up. You said you had already learned quite a lot before you decided to break your silence, so I hope you can find your way around more easily. If there's one thing I have to say, it's that you should avoid forum drama since you are yet a newbie; otherwise, even if you have a clear intention, it could be easily misunderstood for something else.
Enjoy your stay, and I'll see you around.


cheers 🥂

When you said your name is urbanmerchant i thought what! Then i looked at your username so i was like oh you are talking about your username. Or your real name ks also urban merchant. Because that's quit a name. And welcome abroad i welcome you from the core of my heart ( ). There is a thread where you can share you achievements but i dont think that thread is the right place for self introduction so let's just leave the decision for moderators
 

Such a lengthy post! Can't believe this is coming from a newbie.

you are right, but being a newbie on this forum doesn't mean you must be a dumb too. No offense but as OP mentioned he/she observing the topics and sections on BTT for quite some time. So i think that might be the reason of such long post. Well against i meant no disrespect i totally agree with your point because many other newbies are making long posts and the funny thing is they as a newbie make posts on how to stay active on this forum for life or how to earn money or etc.

Why do higher rank members of this  forum  actually feel that every newbie must lack the skills at first to actually make tangible post, like the OP said he has been lurking around and in so he might gather enough knowledge on how to actuall construct a good post seeing that they are lots of such here so far as you can read and understand its actually not quite hard to follow up here.

and again some newbie must have been part of other forum before so posting wouldn't be much of a problem plus they must have gained knowledge elsewhere about crypto so I don't feel all newbie are actually limited like the actual newcomers to a place.

When you have been around for a long time, you tend to recognize patterns and make your  assessment using those patterns as a reference. In my not so long time here, I have noticed that new accounts who address themselves as “newbies” turn out to be alt accounts. It’s not that newbies cannot make a sensible post, afterall there are newbies who quickly rose across the ranks and on the forum.

OP welcome to the forum, your first post is well drafted and impressive. It’s nice to see threads by beginners that aren’t about merits and how to earn.

[urbanmerchant]

BitcoinTalk is undeniably an incredible platform; I cannot believe I didn't join sooner.  From now on, I'm excited to actively engage in discussions, contribute my thoughts, and continue learning.

All this is great—your exclamations and delight. But I would like to warn you that the use of AI tools is frowned upon in the forum. Here, people communicate with people and do not welcome the robot's speech at all.
So stop using AI and start writing on your own. Do not pretend to be knowledgeable when, apparently, you are not yet literate.
