There are plenty of good tutorials on YouTube, but, from my perspective learning, "crypto" isn't something that can be done just by watching, just dawdle in the forum and read the things that catch your attention or topics you are interested in. Not all crypto are equal in the end.
Like other markets you have to spend time to understand and learn cryptocurrency. Bitcointalk.org is best place for new comers to learn what's happening in crypto world. Deeply study new projects and price variation of different CC over the years. If you remain steady, you will slowly but surely.

I first started as a bounty hunter here and learned a lot about crypto/blockchain since then. I wouldn't say I am an expert but probably knows some basic stuff. It took me a while though because I was distracted before and not really serious.

I would suggest that you start here as well but you have to be specific on what you want to know first and stick to the boards that discusses those topics. If you want to learn technical matters about bitcoin blockchain, focus on boards like Development & Technical Discussion and Bitcoin Technical Support. Do not read any other boards yet. If it's mining or trading, do the same, focus.

Do not rush and take it one step at a time.

Use a google search engine, there are a lot of articles about the crypto trading tutorials and tips for beginners.
To OP, just be careful when you search on google. It's true that you can find many guides/tutorial but those sites might also lead you to installing some malware or visit some phishing sites.
I believe it's possible to learn a lot being bounty hunter, tried it but didn't like it much.
I'm not really interested in technical matters of blockchain, strictly cryptocurrencies and trading.
Step by step, yes!

I've been watching videos on yt and found them very educational and cool explained. Agree with the part crypto can't be learned just by reading and looking. This forums helps a lot also!

1. Basic about crypto (articles, books, crypto education sites)
2. Trading Simulators (like Altcoin Fantasy, i thin etoro also offers one) + trading tools for beginners (get familiar with charts, portfolio management, participating in aidrops etc.)
3. Start with small money (which you can afford to lose)

The best way to learn about crypto is to start using it.
Agreed with this. For example, if you don't try to ride on cycle you could not know how to ride by only reading books. So, crypto also like that. If you don't try to use it you can not learn more about it. So,

1. At first try to use crypto
2. Then discover your problems and ask here, google, youtube and other place where you can get appropriate answer. But I recommended Google, and youtube if you face basic problems. Then if you don't find the answer on google or youtube then ask in this forum. Hope you will get valuable answer from from lots of valuable members here.

3.  Keep in mind that if you have not curiosity  or ability of making question in your mind then you can not learn more about crypto or anything  in your life.

I think in this bitcointalk forum a lot of information about how to learn crypto, even in this forum you can also earn income, the most important thing in my opinion is there must be strong in reading and never be bored to do it because it takes time to process.
In addition to Google, Youtube, Articles, Social Medias can also be additional information about more knowledge about crypto.

It is difficult to say which one is the best to start learning about crypto but if I have to recommend you something to start with. Yes, it is the site: https://bitcoin.org/en/ and the Bitcoin's whitepaper (you can choose relevant translations of the Whitepaper for your interests).

Why I recommend them first for you?

Because cryptography has a very very long history but bitcoin is the first one that actually made a revolution for cryptography and brought it to the world population on massive scale.

If you want to move further, from basic to advanced, you can find what you need here: Available courses on Bitcoin and Blockchain Technology from colleges and Universities. Remember to learn how to use keywords to search newest courses on those given sites in my thread (I could miss some newest courses).

In crypto, as the saying goes "Not your private keys, not your bitcoin; not your seeds, not your coins". Hence I emphasize the importance of managing basic (basic, not advanced) to install crypto wallets (bitcoin or altcoins), backup (private keys, seeds, etc.), recover wallets from backups.
Storing your coins on exchanges is the worst thing to do in crypto. Relates to crypto exchanges, you have to manage to activate 2-factor authentication, backup 2FA code, and recover your 2FA code on your other phones.

Passwords are very important in crypto, so let learn it in your very early days in crypto: [GUIDE] How to Create a Strong/Secure Password

Temporary emails [1] are good (and you should use them) if you want to register on newborn sites or ones you don't sure it is a legit and reliable one.
There are more advanced and private emails, like Proton mails (but sure you have to pay cost for them). Proton mail has till discounted 50%. [2]

[2] ProtonMail black friday is on!

Phishing attacks are the next ones you must learn to protect your funds, so read: [LEARN] Phishing Quizzes - Beginners & Experts.

Scam: List of (un)known methods scammers user to scam users with honorable mention

Don't instantly download anything you see: Guide and advice for new Users before you Download anything from the Forum ! (and outside the forum too).

If you need to find something, find them here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=search
Read that one too: A Complete Guideline to use forum search button properly

Lastly, I congratulate you for choosing the right forum to begin your interesting journey with crypto.

I believe I gave you enough sources to start off, from them you can find more related things if you want.

It seems pretty daunting sometimes, so much to cover..
It is daunting because you try to cover a lot of topics in a short time. You cannot do that and I believe no one has mastered everything when it comes to trading. That is also why you see different types of traders. They excel using their own set of indicators. If you read some books, they would even admit that they suck using many indicators.

With that said, I guess you have to determine first what kind of a trader you want to be. To achieve that, you may have to do a lot of trial and errors. Experience is still the best teacher.

If you wanted to learn about alt coins trading and other related aspects  you would get the acknowledgment in you tube and google i think the most you will do practical related stuff in alt coins trading the greatest knowledge you accommodate and being able to gather useful information & you would able to get a huge benefits.

Totally agree! Also, I think that the best strategy to learn about crypto is to learn it in theory and at the same time, we have to practice what we learned! So in other words, we must do hands on activity as much as we could on our crypto endeavor!

Remember, "there is no substitute for experience!"  Smiley

The best way to learn about something is to start experimenting in practical.
You can learn the basics from literally anywhere, whether it be google, youtube or this forum itself.

Start by thinking about the questions you want to know the answers to related to cryptocurrencies, then the learning curve begins.
Whenever you bump into something that you cannot understand, you can definitely raise a question in the forum and many will assist you for the same.

Also, this book is the holy grail to understand cryptocurrencies - Mastering Bitcoin by Andreas M. Antonopoulos

I may sound biased but THB, I learned mostly about crypto in this forum and up to this day, I  still continue to learn new things around this platform!

But of course, I have to supplement this learning process by reading crypto related articles, ebooks, videos, interacting with different social media platforms, crypto project websites and more. Just keep it in mind that learning should be fun! Smiley

This forum is still good but troll and spam is more than the news we need. Twitter looks to be top on the list IMO, and spend more time there lately, all crypto movers and whales are very active there, predictions and update,sometime leakage of some inside information if you are attentive to the right people. I think more focus should be giving to twitter campaign than other social media, more consideration should be giving to twitter handles with good cryto presence and followers.
This forum is way good, just search topics you wanted to know with crypto in Google and includes Bitcointalk in the search bar, topics will appear. I usually just read 1st page when I want to learn and read something on a certain alt here in crypto as most in the 1st page says it with sense and useful. I'm reading more here in forum than in other websites and social media sites even ICO ratings as those platform can be paid so we can't trust what they really say.

Lot of reading will give you lot of learning and at some stage when you know the things you can use it and get active into the cryptoworld .

Bitcointalk forum is your best option to start a learning journey about crypto, as you already have an account here.
Bitcoin.org is also a great alternative.
Last advice, do not follow any paid courses. Knowledge is free, and never think that anything is impossible for you to understand or to learn & never hesitate to use this board to ask about whatever issue you may face. I wish you the best luck.
