A humble newbie in need of exploring guidelines.

[Cryptohygenic]

Hello everyone, i respectfully acknowledge every one of you in this platform as i depend on you all to guide my path on the primary aim of being among you!
This is my first post after having couple of days reading through the platform.
i have desires to invest on cryptocurrency but bitcoin precisely. Actually, i met a neighbor friend of mine who deals on bitcoin and told him my desires but he referred me here that i should explore myself by engaging of crypto discussions with newbies like me and also with the experts far ahead of me.
He said i should always make research whether i feel satisfied or confused while learning to grow my knowledge and has warned me not to come to him on regular basis.
So where do i start please?

Thank you, i do appreciate. Maybe YouTube would be preferable for better understanding on the visual mode because it would be more comfortable for me to follow up.

We can give you the entire links and path through how you can be successful from this forum but if you did not take responsibility for your own self in making more other discoveries, you may not achieve up to expectations and you may see this place as being trimmed towards the experienced fellows alone, but the truth is that we all started from somewhere and till become whom we are, we have always been making learning a consistent habits and if you can also do this, it doesn't matter how you have started, you can always achieve any of your targets when active and determined.

He did well telling you that to encourage you to learrn certain things on your own and not feel lazy and ask questions about every single thing you want to know about. Carrying out your own research will help you more as grabbing things on your own makes you understand it better. Make research and try to understand it then ask questions when it’s proving too difficult to understand.

So where do i start please?

There are similar threads created by newbies asking for help on where to start and if you have gone through the forum properly you must have come across one of them but now that you have asked let me refer you to one of them here you can get useful information there.

I would recommend these website/book as a starting point,
https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook
https://learnmeabitcoin.com/

You may find the answers to any questions you may encounter on this forum or at https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/

So you can try using https://ninjastic.space/search to carry out search on this forum instead of using the default search tool.

Well you are in the right forum where we have experienced users here that can guide you through so you just have to ask questions more especially in this beginner and help section of the forum that is where all your questions will be answered on what you wish to know or understand. This line I bolded is where I can tell you that the person who introduced you to this forum wants you to learn and make research on your own which is a very good step because if he keeps on guiding you it will be difficult for you to take things seriously but sometimes when you can't  be able to get help from him it will enable you to have the zeal to know all by yourself.

Since materials have already been shared to you Op, I will simply add that to protect your account and not get banned follow the forum rules, read before posting, avoid plagiarism, avoid the use of AI because we want discussion here organic and devoid of pretense of any form of ego. If you follow these rules, you will enjoy your stay here and violation of these steps might get your account banned and you will not be required to open a new one else you will be committing an offense called ban eversion.

Thank you. I have been indebted to reading in the platform now but it feels too broad to go all through and my eyes burns already. Although I am enjoying the networking and interacting in the platform despite all that.
While I am not being panicked with you all here on my slowing learning capacity, i am feel more comfortable with you all because he will always raise voices at me for every unimpressive move of me.
Infact this self learning seems to build me with more passions on my desires on bitcoin investments .

We're upright in our doing because the forum wouldn't hesitate to punish one when apprehended. The forum will not condole any form of plagiarism which is the number one rule to consider when it comes to making posts. I know how dangerous it can become when caught and trust me when I say the consequences that follows are not friendly. You already lined out the crucial piece of information and this will definitely go a long way for OP.

[Ojima-ojo]

I think the best form of preparation is to read the rules of the forum and after that you read all the guides already posted by other members, because that way you are going to expand your knowledge about Bitcoin and the forum together with general cryptocurrency.


Keep in mind that by asking questions you stand a chance of getting diverse opinion which help you more than just reading articles, this is what makes you grounded in the knowledge and experience, take a few practical steps and hodle more Bitcoin as an asset for long term base.

Thank you, i do appreciate. Maybe YouTube would be preferable for better understanding on the visual mode because it would be more comfortable for me to follow up.

Not all YouTube channels will be able to provide you with the correct information. If you are familiar with the fact that on YouTube channels some people prefer to just make money, you should understand that the owner is primarily interested in money.

All the links provided to you on the forum will contain similar information, and you mistakenly think that you cannot cope with it. Consistent reading and communication on the forum will give you the correct understanding.

However, I would like to warn you to be careful when trusting those people who may offer their assistance in investing your money. Do not try to communicate through personal messages, as you can sometimes meet unscrupulous people who are willing to deceive you.

Thank you. I actually watched on the YouTube channels and most of the presenters in the video are basically talking about Invest Invest quickly before the market price increases.
Some of them are giving links and referer codes on where to invest and have your funds secured. I have most of the channels suspected because they don't really emphasize more on the risk sides. Maybe that is a market strategy or want to rebel me unlike this forum that everyone talk more about the risks and that means to me that people in this platform cares about my fund safety without being selfish.

YouTube seems to show something that makes it easy for the desired needs. We admit that learning something virtually that can be seen like on YouTube is different from learning while reading.
Careful attitudes are needed when receiving information from the YouTube channel because not all content delivery contains accurate levels of truth.

It would be better if the reinforcement was done after getting information on YouTube by actively involving yourself to read every discussion in the forum related to what you want to learn and you will get it better.

Actually, he's right. There are no sweet words and shilling but he just directed you to the right place for you to learn. But still, be careful with people that might shill you the projects that they are working with or what's in their bag. If you want to start rightly, there's no need to go far away from the discussion, you're in the Bitcoin forum and as what the name of this forum is, you should start buying Bitcoin. Don't get it wrong about buying Bitcoin because it's not required to buy a whole of it if you can't afford, you can do the 'dollar cost averaging' by doing a series of purchase continuously with how much you can afford. So, there you go and start with buying Bitcoin.

You’re right there. First and foremost, know the rules and policies first so that you will be aware what to do and what to avoid while you are inside the forum. Read and explore everything that catches your attention, that way you will gain a limitless knowledge and will continue to grow more by not stopping to read and learn everyday. And always keep in mind that learning takes a lot of time, so just be patient and be consistent in your goal while you tend to follow every link that was given already ahead of this post.

I feel this neighbor of yours did well by referring you to this Forum, you coming here is the number one step and as a newbie that wants to learn don't expect everything to be done for you, is like a path to success has been shown to you but is up to you to keep up the pace. Remember the Forum members will guide you on what you want to learn but the rules still implies, for your neighbor to say not to come to him always it means you have to start the journey alone. Secondly ask yourself which you want to engage in, is it trading or to be an investors? Nobody's going to decide for you, is up to you OP.

[Cryptohygenic]

Just thinking! Is it possible for someone to know everything about this platform and also everything about bitcoin?
I have been reading through the platform for days now and I have recently been watching on YouTube about how I can build my bitcoin carrier knowledge. To an extend it feels encouraging as I have engaged on the platform rules, being studious on the risk factors on my bitcoin carriers including some terms to buy bitcoin and keep it in the wallet for a long time so that I can make profits.
At the other hand, it feels discouraging like I have not even started learning because things to learn about on this quest seems unending.
So does it mean you all in this platform are professional to the extend of knowing everything about this platform and bitcoin as a whole before you invested?

First of all I welcome you to this great bitcoin forum. It is very difficult for a common man to know everything about Bitcoin, blockchain technology and this platform. But I think it is not necessary to know everything. A little bit of knowledge will get you going. The more time you spend on this forum the more you will learn. And if you need help in any matter, ask questions, many forum members will help you.
