Topic: As a newbie, be careful of the Bitcoin information you process (Read 723 times)

I would like to think that one of the reliable places you are talking about will be this community, because the knowledge and directions this community holds is beyond comprehension.when you have low insight about a particular thing or project then the results you will get when you have decided to take part on this is just going to be negative and also just like you said even if the information is from the wrong source the likely possible results will all be false and the social media is a perfect place for such misinformations.

The crypto space happens to be a very busy place with lots of information surrounding it. Digital form of money like Bitcoin happens to be the most popular among other coins. Interestingly, we've had series of video clips, written books, online materials and people's opinion that all explains every piece of information surrounding Bitcoin. Most of this information are generated from different source, but are meant to interpret same thing, i.e, every information about Bitcoin should be consistent regardless of whosoever is writing/documenting it.

When a none Bitcoin ethusiast is eager to learn about Bitcoin, it's is important for he/she to make proper research as a newbie. By making research, he/she would definitely come across online materials, videos and also people's opinion. At that early stage, it's very difficult to identify false information about Bitcoin due to unfamiliarity with certain terminologies. Sadly, this misinformation can stick and become part of the person. Misinformation can sometimes be difficult to erase especially when we've become top members in the Bitcoin community.

We sometimes come across altercation or counterattacks in the comment section of a particular post. we often see how crypto ethusiast tends to object to other people's ideology concerning Bitcoin. Certainly, one person is usually wrong during this every altercation. The tendency to keep arguing even when one party is wrong is as a result of the wrong information that has been processed overtime.

In conclusion, it's very important that we gather enough information by making our own research and also learning from others especially in a community like BTT. let's not be too quick to jumping into conclusion especially in topics that we are not familiar with. Your contributions are greatly appreciated.

You can only get wrong information about bitcoin when you do your research from unreliable sources (website, social media, YouTube pages etc). When you research from a reliable source you don’t have to worry about a wrong information being given to you and you will be grounded with that information anywhere you go without having alteration with others. It is good to go for extensive research but by doing so, make sure you don’t collect information from unreliable sources, compare them with others to be sure that what you’re learning is legit.

I think as a newbie if one is a regular on bitcoin forum he will not be influenced by such fake news and will find a clean and reliable platform to learn about bitcoin.

The best suggestion is referring your friends to Bitcointalk forum if they really want to learn about Bitcoin with zero false information exposure, there are too many fake information online and some are even targeting the audience, for scam reasons and email spamming.

Whenever anyone new ask me about where they can start learning about Bitcoin, the first thing that comes to mind is this forum, nowhere else, I started using search engine back in the days, but I still lacked a lot of information then which cost me some money, as I made unnecessary mistakes that I could have avoided if I started learning through this forum instead.

You are actually correct. I think misinformation amongs newbies is as a result of social media. Like Twitter, telegram, Facebook and YouTube. Thats why they say that people should be awear of social media influencer promoting fake project. When we have been deceived a long time ago and we have been growing with that mentality and when you see someone who is correcting you, you think the person is trying to convince you of what you know, where as you are the one who have been fooling around all the while. I have learnt alot in this forum. When I came here I was so sceptical about what was going on here compeard to what I have learnt outside and decided to mellow down to learn instead of ague. The best way of learning is to keep quiet and listen and add more knowledge to the one you have otherwise you will not learn anything.

Newbies can be easily lured with fake and wrong information as they have not gained adequate knowledge on bitcoin and on the forum. Hence, having an extensive research is crucial so that one can process carefully the information that he receives and ignore those that belong to too good to be true as they are certainly scams.

However, regardless how knowledgeable a  newbie becomes, he is not excuse from losses. Bitcoin is not just all about profits but losses as well, so newbies should also be smarter on how to minimize their losses when they decide to invest or trade with bitcoin.

I agree with you, misinformation can Leed to wrong mentality or false information which make some people ignorant of the way they communicate about Bitcoin. And this your explanation is being practiced in this forum. If you check the rate at which most newbies ague, you will know that this set of people has been misinformed. So my advice for this set of people is to calm down and and pay attention to what people are saying in other to learn. Nobody is an island of knowledge. It is important for the newbies to sublet themselves for Higher people to teach them  what they don't know sothat it will help in bringing them up from the wrong mentality to the Wright mentality.

This may seem simple to the newbies, but it has quite a lot of significance. Naturally a newbie will be interested to know about Bitcoin but he may be confused to get authentic Bitcoin news as there is a lot of fake news in the online world. But this forum can be a safe haven for those who want to know correct and authentic news about Bitcoin. He will learn about the right suggestions of others as well as he can make himself an expert. I think as a newbie if one is a regular on bitcoin forum he will not be influenced by such fake news and will find a clean and reliable platform to learn about bitcoin.

Well theres a saying a lot of talks out there arent real. If you have found some information its quite natural that tou verified it first cause even the one who said it is even the President of the United States sometimes its not credible or maybe the one that tells that got hacked or whatever. Bitcoin has a lot of resources and you could check it yourself whether the data or info is indeed correct.

Not only just bitcoin information every information which related you should be secure. I see many newbies while they doing bounty campaigns they gives their personal data also for a few bucks. So I also include these thing on besides securing Bitcoin information process. Don't get into the trap if phishing and scammers.
