What other way are preferable to learn about Bitcoin as a newbie?

[Nuel0717]

This question has been on my mind for a while because, as a beginner with no past experience with Bitcoin or how it works, the Satoshi white paper is still hard for me to fully understand due to the grammar, terms, and technical writing.

I thought of using AI or even meeting a Bitcoin pro to teach me, but I'm confused about the best approach.

Also, I really want to learn Bitcoin properly because I’ve noticed that in the Naija board, most of the valuable discussions and the posts that earn merit come from members who understand Bitcoin deeply. I want to develop myself too and grow to the level of my senior members here.

What other learning methods would you recommend for someone like me?

 According to the forum rules, to make research about certain things relating to Bitcoin wey you no understand them give your opinion about wetin you learn no be bad idea, and if you choose to use AI as your research tool that one na your problem so far say you no plagiarise or paraphrase with am but brotherly using AI as your research tool get em own risk, Ai dey mostly summarise things then give you feedback so you fit no get broader information of wetin dey find, also eh fit refer you to links wey go expose you to cryptocurrency scam, since you still be newbie for the space.
 Therefore my honest advice to you na to learn about Bitcoin related terms here from the forum, then follow threads wey dey teach about Bitcoin, infact no need to go outside the forum to research about Bitcoin, here na the best place if you wan learn anything whether technical aspect of Bitcoin or so, just take your time waka for Beginners and help or Bitcoin Discussion you go see better topics where you fit learn the basics of Bitcoin for a start.

This forum has enough information that can increase your knowledge about Bitcoin. If you use the search option, you would find information about anything about Bitcoin. Watching videos could also be helpful in your learning process. Some people can easily through audiovisual materials. Just do a quick search on YouTube, and you will get results of good videos about Bitcoin. You should be pleased you are in Bitcointalk because it was this forum that educated many people, as they knew absolutely nothing about Bitcoin before they joined.

You don’t need to be technically sound in bitcoin before you can contribute well to the discussion in the local board that will earn you merits. Some older members you have seen here that have moved up in ranks do not have in-depth technical knowledge about bitcoin and they’re still doing very well. Bitcoin white paper is large, you just need to focus on which of the parts of it you want to learn best and be better in it after getting to know about the niche.

The whole of bitcoin concept is very interesting as you get to learn more about it. I’ll advise you take the learning gradually, as you’re actively here also, you’ll get to learn more about it and how to communicate here and move yourself up like other members. Focus more on learning than ranking up, it’ll come naturally when you do the right things. Learnmeabitcoin.com is a good website I’ll also like you to look into, it’ll help guide you as a beginner.

Well as for the Satoshi white paper, I don't really know about it because it's been long I go through that stuff and I didn't take my time to read to understand it but honestly speaking, I don't know much about it but the little I know about crypto currency has helped me a lot. To be honest, you don't need to understand 100% of crypto currency before you can start to contribute in the crypto forum, I would advise you just do the best thing can, little by little you will understand majority of the crypto space. This is a good crypto forum where you can learn anything you don't understand about crypto currency but you can also check Reddit too for more informations.

Are you the type who likes learning while watching videos? Because I actually just came across a YouTube video right now who teaches about Bitcoin and crypto in general in a simple and understandable manner for every Beginner who literally had zero or no knowledge about Bitcoin. Because you actually can't understand Bitcoin if you don't start learning from its root cause, which is crypto. And I'm 80% sure the value and teaching given in this 16 minutes YouTube video is actually worth it for a complete beginner you dey so.
Secondly, if you are the type who likes learning while listening to audio, then you can make your research on Spotify and look for Bitcoin or crypto related podcast that you will learn about Bitcoin.
While thirdly, this forum is also the best place you can learn about Bitcoin simply because it has the most experience people in the Bitcoin space, who could give you your their best advice.

So here is the screenshot of the YouTube video, channel and title. You can search for the channel yourself.

A number of people that knows about Bitcoin very well highly recommend this forum as a place where experienced people discuss it and newbies learn from them. Since I have been in this forum I can say that it is very interactive about Bitcoin and any newbie that is serious to learn will gain a lot. But we shouldn't depend only on discussions among experienced people here to grow our knowledge about Bitcoin. We can research online to learn and make input in in the forum, also we can ask questions and experienced people in the forum will give us guidance.

[PremiumcryptoHub]

Honestly, there is a lot of information to learn about Bitcoin on this forum, but I still recommend some learning methods, but first, know its definition, I am saying it is electronic currency and enables peer to peer transactions. Even we still believe that this electronic currency is introduced to the general public by anonymous developers. However, you can also learn a lot about Bitcoin theoretically by observing articles, watching videos and reading the writings of experts on our local board. Are you the kind of person who can gain knowledge about Bitcoin by reading articles or reading the writings of experts on our naija local board, because OP, notice that Bitcoin is taught here in a very general easy and understandable manner.

However, there is many way to learn bitcoin, you don’t have to use AI, other ways are also available and I won’t advise you to use AI either, but used your own research and learn about bitcoin is the best way. Furthermore, this forum is a safe place, and you can ask any question if there is anything you don’t understand you bring it up here, the forum members will help you out. You can use the link below, to learn some few things also.

the Satoshi white paper is still hard for me to fully understand due to the grammar, terms, and technical writing.

Trying to understand new grammars and terms in something new you are trying to learn can be very difficult because of the confusion those terms will initially present to you. This is the same for most persons, this is why some people write these terms out separately so they can refer to it easily when this confusion arises. That should be something you try to practice. After a while of learning, you will notice you will become more conversant with those terms and they will no longer confuse you as much as before. This is  how the learning process is.

Welcome, there are many resources where you can learn bitcoin, no need of using AI because it might give you wrong information.

AI hardly gives you wrong information. Use the right prompt, ask the right question, and it will give you the right answer.

AI responses come from various sources on the internet. It scrapes the internet to find the most relevant answer for you, because on your own, it will take you more time to find the best resources. IMO AI can be a very big tool to learn about Bitcoin, especially what looks complicated in the Bitcoin whitepaper.

There are no special learning method when it comes to learning about bitcoin, and yeah, as a newbie, you can learn little to nothing reading the bitcoin white paper alone due to complexity understanding most of the terms Satoshi used in writing the  whitepaper; except you have been a technical person with good talent to understand technical terms easily, then maybe you can understand and learn a bit from the whitepaper.

Like I said before, there is no special way to learn about bitcoin aside participating in discussions about it and asking questions about it, specially in areas you do not understand.
And from time to time, try also to search out some things/infomation your self as well through search engines like Google search, it helps you learn a bit faster.

[Wiwo]

AI should the last option when it comes to getting right information on some certain thing's and bitcoin is one of such things,  AI will give a relatively bad outlook to bitcoin,  but the best place to get information is to be active in thos forum, and in as much as we have seen technical and theoretical knowledge being shared in the forum, just reading through the righ discussions will expose your mind to alot of things that helps you understand bitcoin better.

So welcome and feel free to ask whatever questions that have not been asked before and we will gladly guide you through.

Most importantly,  aside from being active wirh discussions innthe localboard,  try also as much as possible to visit and engage with the global boards also, bitcoin discussions board and even the technical board.

[Josefjix]

You want to rank up or you want to understand Bitcoin, you just have to understand what you want exactly.

If you want to understand Bitcoin, then you join the forum and read through consistently, while joining others with the same feather.

If there is any case, you can possibly get to trying it yourself by applying the experiment yourself and start acting on it like you already known it.

A lot of the members here have given you links and materials that will help you on your journey. But first you have to decide what your motivation is. Do you want to learn how bitcoin works so you can make post and earn merits or you want to learn bitcoin so you can take advantage of the opportunities in the space? Do not limit yourself to signature campaigns and the forum. There are lots of opportunities in the crypto industry that a person with knowledge can exploit.

[adultcrypto]

A lot of people already share useful educational links that can help you learn about bitcoin but I want to add that you make good use of Youtube if you like audiovisual method of learning. Youtube have a lot of videos explaining everything you might possibly want to learn about Bitcoin including the technical aspect of it and even mining. You can support that with the posts in the technical aspect of this forum and that will help you learn faster. I'm also doing the same thing to sharpen my understanding of bitcoin and the technology that powers it.
