I don't really blame beginners who don't have the security mindset in Bitcoin while purchasing Bitcoin because most beginners think about or know only the Bitcoin value, and their main concern is to make a profit from Bitcoin.

Should we put this blame now on those introduce this newbies to bitcoin because one of the biggest problems that we have is how narrative given about bitcoin and how the newbies are introduced into bitcoin. Most people that introduce them only give them focus on how they will make profit by investing or trading but certainly they don’t get the exposure to how to secure their assets or how not to even lose them. For me securit should be paramount to every investor either old investor or new investor, either large holder or small hodler too.
I think so because, from my own experience, when I was introduced to Bitcoin investment, I was only told about how Bitcoin was valuable and knew nothing about the risks in Bitcoin.

The blame shouldn't be solely put on those who introduced Bitcoin, but also on every individual who never did their research to know better after the introduction. People are quick to jump into investments to make fast money and are often carried away and unaware of the risky aspects of the investment.

Therefore, before buying your first bitcoin it is important to understand that you are entering into a system where you are fully responsible of your funds, the bitcoin system is not like the traditional bank where we have customers support that can reverse transactions or recover stolen funds. ones your bitcoin is gone it is likely gone forever.
The most important thing to do when someone comes to buying his first Bitcoin is to seek for knowledge and comprehend how the Bitcoin system operates.

That why anything someone is intended to do either in cryptocurrency space or even in real life journey, try and acquire a little knowledge before jumping into it or cryptocurrency aspects, because knowledge gives you power to act and wisdom to succeed. In fact, having knowledge on how Bitcoin works has given you a full confidence to approach it purchases already, so there's no special mindset in buying bitcoin, but knowledge on what you are buying, how valuable it is and how has the already investors succeed. Knowing all these actually gives you a full confidence in purchasing bitcoin at first.

Quote
But some people take Bitcoin like physical goods that if they buy and take it to the market if the market is not doing well the way they expect they will bring everything back home, whereby Bitcoin is not that is a place where you can get lose of your money at any time, which is why having the background before everything is very important for each an everyone. So that he/she will be prevented from falling into any kind of trap that they will not be able to escape.

In a nutshell, people don't actually need to viewed it that way, but it should be treated digitally. Bitcoin is volatile in nature, price can comes down and up, as such when the bitcoin price drops no one can bring it back, one can either holding it or sell it at lose or they waite and holding it for long-term growths.

Before embarking on any investment journey, security of that investment is the number one thing you should consider even before engaging yourself in that investing. Now as a newbie who picks interest to invest in bitcoin, your success is highly dependent on the security of your wallet. You need a secured wallet, every security details should be kept very secured without compromising it.
Initially when I started bitcoin investing, I made lots of mistakes that cost me my investment. I invested in ponzi schemes with my bitcoin, and I even converted my bitcoin to other altcoins thinking I would make more money there, but Instead of making profit, I incured total lost.
So, while securing your wallet, avoiding these errors I have mentioned will also help to protect your bitcoin.

That's the number one lesson that a lot of people skip until they learn the hard way before they realized themselves. And that's the one reason most people becomes a victim of scammers or suffer constant losses is that they only care about hearing the positive side of it, going further by explaining the risks will become boring for them to hear,  as their brains won't comprehend that and instead of first doing proper research about what they just heard, they will look for a way to earn money to start investing immediately with little or no knowledge about it and that desperation often leads them to poor decisions that might completely ruin their plans.

Security is the first important thing when you have Bitcoin in your wallet because if you lose your security, then your assets are in the control of other people. Many people want to get your assets, and you have to be mentally active if you want to save your assets. I know many people who gave their seed phrases to other people, and people got access, and they withdraw his assets, and people were crying after that. That is not a solution, and you have to think that there are most of the people want to destroy you because you want to achieve something big in life, and people want you to give them access to your assets. I always advise my brothers and friends: don't blindly trust anyone with your financial security.

Yes, it's undeniable that currently, some so-called influencers who introduce Bitcoin to the public rarely explain in detail how to secure their Bitcoins. They focus solely on explaining that Bitcoin is incredibly profitable, even though that's generally true. However, it's still not always easy. There's a process where we need to understand Bitcoin in depth, learn how to manage our finances, and secure the Bitcoins we already own. So, with things like this, it's clear that we, as Bitcoin investors, must find out for ourselves. Essentially, we must be able to think more deeply and critically about what we're doing. Because if we don't dig deeper and find out for ourselves, I think it will be very difficult for us to understand how to safely invest in Bitcoin. So, that's the conclusion for now, and especially for beginners who are just starting out, don't forget to learn about the Bitcoin you're currently exploring, because it's crucial.
