First of all, I’m very sorry if this is not the correct section for this topic.
I wish I had at least a little technical background because I feel like I’m learning everything from zero. You cannot learn functions in mathematics without first understanding equations, and before that, you need to know how to multiply and divide numbers. That is exactly how I feel at the moment.
Sometimes I read something about Bitcoin, and it suddenly starts talking about nodes, but I have no idea what a node is. Then I need to stop and learn that first before I can understand the original topic. This takes a lot of time, and sometimes it makes me feel frustrated. I often think that if I had some technical background, I would understand these things much more easily.
For example, I only learned about cold wallets a few months ago. It is a very basic and important concept, but I did not know anything about it. After buying one, it still took me some time to move my sats to the cold wallet because mentally, I was not ready to try it. After I finally did it, I felt very good, by the way.
I’m just wondering whether this is a normal part of the learning process. I’m the kind of person who likes to dig deeper and understand something properly when I become interested in it. However, sometimes Bitcoin becomes too technical for me.
I’m still DCAing every month, by the way. The way I feel does not change my behaviour. I can also see the progress I’m making. It just seems to take me more time compared with other people. I know I’m still new to this, but I often get annoyed with myself.
