The meaning and understanding of Bitcoin or crypto can be interpreted broadly and variously, depending on what activities you use Bitcoin for and what purpose.
If you look at the transaction method, of course what you are asking is correct, but there are other insights into Bitcoin activities that can be done.
For example: trading, investing and so on, if that's what you're doing, of course you need to learn a lot about trading methods or market analysis and you have to learn more deeply and in detail about Bitcoin, so that you don't lose.

My understanding is that studying this is highly recommended, as is the title of your topic.

Before starting anything that has to do with crypto investment, we must make sure that we have already secured a certain learning ground for ourself, this will help us have various ideas in knowing what next to do and what to avoid doing, but its a pity that many of the newbies does not go through the required learning process before investing, and such occurs along the line that they cant withstand any market challenge, while some often fall a victim to scam because they don't understand how to prevent such from happening.

Knowledge is very important before going into BTC investment, and if you lack the knowledge as a newbies, you will lose everything you have invest in BTC, which is the mistake some newbies use to make in their investment.

You will come across two seasons, which newbies need to know in their learning ground which are bear and bull season, and newbies must know how to use the tool to buy and sell from the market because if you want to buy from the market ensure bear run is on ground before you can buy, and if you want to sell your coins ensure the bull run is on ground before you can sell to make good profits.

Learn how to carry out research before investing in BTC, because you can confirm the information about the market price through your research, before you can take a final decision because there are some newbies who use to follow the information of social media to sell without carry out any research to know if it time to sell or not before marketing your coins.

Before starting any new Bitcoin investment, one of the most important things they need to do is to do a proper analysis of the market. You need to have the confidence to make the investment last, as you will see the price go up and down at times in the Bitcoin market. The more patience you have, the more successful you will be. Not only should you invest in bitcoins, but you also need to keep your bitcoin wallets safe. You will go to a point where you will find that you are very profitable from Bitcoin investment, but suddenly when you can't login to your wallet all the money will go to waste. So I would say for new investors, first of all keep your wallet secure so that you can recover it later, then start investing.

The point that you shared is good to understand for the newbies so that they can avoid the miner mistakes in the crypto space.

Perhaps you could help expansiate on what the miners mistake is about, just to keep our newbies and myself well informed too.
If ones country of residence gets to accept and regulate BTC and other cryptos, they may have no better choice than to use it to enable they transact efficiently.

Even many recent movies, bother along the subject of cryptocurrency and wallets and anyone who is a newbie here, has already been a step ahead of others who are still struggling to understand the concept of cryptocurrency out there.

Crypto currency investment is a kind of investment that one has a choice on the mode to adopt to earn their profits. As it is gaining weight, so also it's knowledge becomes available and easily understood to use.

Everything you say is the first thing we have to know about bitcoin investment, because bitcoin investment is something that is very risky if you do not have adequate knowledge, especially about wallet security, this transaction error is a fatal error that can make your assets disappear instantly.

Additionally, perhaps you should add that since Bitcoin investments have high risks, you need to use cold hard cash. What is meant by cold money is money that will not be used in the near future or for daily needs. Because the purpose of using cold money is so that you do not increase the risk of investing when asset prices are falling. When the price goes down, don't panic and rush to sell because there is still a chance it will go up again. That way you can be more patient and not rush when making decisions

Bitcoin does not guarantee security for you, as long as you are able to maintain the seed phrase properly and store it in a safe place, the Bitcoin stored in your wallet will be safe. So the security of Bitcoin stored in your wallet is your responsibility.

You're right. Bitcoin never guarantees security, it also never guarantees for profits. For the security reason, we must understand how to manage the key phrase of the wallets and know where the best place to store Bitcoin. So far, non-custodial wallet is a better place for storing Bitcoin because we have a control of the wallet. But if we can't manage the private keys in a proper way, we also can lose the Bitcoin if we lose the private keys data.

As far as I know, El Salvador has adopted bitcoin as a legal means of payment and became the first country to officially accept Bitcoin as a means of payment since September 2021. El Salvador policies made them the richest country, this is a significant change for Bitcoin's reputation since it was launched to the public.

Bitcoin is a legal tender in El Salvador. Sure, it can be a payment tool in El Salvador. However, it doesn't mean Bitcoin is the only payment tool there, El Salvador still uses Dollars for the payment tool. Anyway, I think we can't claim El Salvador be a rich country when we have no data about this. Also, we don't if they succeed or not in Bitcoin investment.

2. You should know that bitcoin transactions are irreversible once confirmed unless the receiver decides to send it back.

And the possibility that the recipient will return it back to the initial wallet sent the BTC is very small. Because sometimes, we may not realize how much BTC we have in that wallet at that time. Unless it is a large amount, then it will be a really confusing one, whether to keep it without caring about the sender's feelings or immediately return it with a transaction fee deducted. So I thought, what would happen to us if we experienced the same thing, receiving transfers from unknown wallets for quite large amounts?

So, this is clear, whoever, we must be careful when sending Bitcoin or even altcoins to certain wallet. doing double check to the wallet address several time before clicking the transaction is a must. no need to hurry up in careless ways.

4. You should know that despite bitcoin not been any countries currency, some countries might still attach tax and other commissions.

Just like on my enagra. Honestly, Bitcon is indeed legal as an asset commodity, but illegal if used as a payment transaction tool. However, if it is related to taxes, yes, we cannot escape taxes. and we are even obliged to pay taxes directly when we trade on local exchanges which are under the regulations of our government.

From my little experience, I must confess that Bitcoin transaction is actually reversible, but that is if only the transaction fee is not enough so as to enable it have a slot in the next consecutive blocks, because I have had a transaction which got reverse before, after staying pending for over a week and on the 7th day It was cancelled due to low fee to grant it's space in the Bitcoin blocks.

That transaction was not confirmed, Bitcoin transactions is not reversible once it has been confirmed and added into a block, but if it is still unconfirmed and in the mempool, then you can double spend the transaction by using the same input in another transaction that pays a higher fee, and send it back into your address.

Bitcoin unconfirmed transactions can also be purged out of the mempool if numerous nodes drop the transaction or it can turn "Local" if the node/server you are connected to drops the transaction, then you can be able to spend it again in another transaction.

That is because your transaction was not confirmed, it was pending for 7days because no enough transaction fee and it didn’t go through, once your payment goes through it cannot be reversed unless the receiver is a good person and decides to send it back. This is to say that carefulness should be considered when inputting addresses,in order to avoid been in such situations.

I think there are ways to recover coins mistakenly sent to a wrong address and also stollen coins but I actually don't know how legit those services are. The best thing is to be very careful when sending out coins by checking and reconfirming the address. Even with our traditional banking system, if you mistakenly send money to a wrong account number, you can not just get it recovered without the consent of the person. In crypto, you can hardly know the person behind the wrong address you send your coins to before thinking of talking to them for reversal. Only few people will be considerate to return such coins.

I think Bitcoin is a very good cryptocurrency. Bitcoin does not compare to other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is very valuable to everyone whether you are new or old. Those who managed to hold on to Bitcoin around 2012-13 are now profiting. Many may be regretting now. Because the price of Bitcoin is increasing day by day.

Price of bitcoin does not increase day by day, it's a mixture of both downtrend and uptrend market on a daily basis. If it only increases day by day, Bitcoin price would have reach millions of dollars by now. Don't FOMO and end up investing in bitcoin blindly just because you think it price increases daily. There things to know about it before you choose to invest your money in order to avoid regrets in the end. Bitcoin is actually a good investment for those who understand the risk involved and ready for it.

Adequate knowledge of Bitcoin is very important before a person will embark on it's investment or trading, because as some members have noted on this thread, many people believe that Bitcoin is a get rich quick scheme, and that is why they're scammed into buying shitcoins, thinking that all cryptocurrency is Bitcoin. I've seen adverts on social media in my country advertising Bitcoin mining gadgets that if you want to become a millionaire within months that you should contact them, and these scammers are scamming people that don't have Bitcoin knowledge everyday. Knowledge is power to achieving greatness.
