Just think about that you have spent more time on your PC/phone for a very important reason, not just because you are wasting your time.

For health concerns, this was not a healthy practice especially if you are too focused on the monitor and having sleepless nights. But if you still have enough time to relax especially your eyes, I guess we have nothing to worry about. You need to manage your time wisely. I think to have 5 hours straight on the computer is enough for learning, we don't need to do it over time.

Prior to learning about crypto and joining this forum, I never was the type to be inclined to digital devices like my phone and personal computer, recently after finding out that a big determinant to one's financial success will soon depend on the amount of information one possesses. I find bitcointalk very informative, and since my time here, I have noticed an increased time spent on both my phone and computer... is this a good habit that I'm about to begin? Or should I continue to regulate the time I spend with my phone and computer.

It will be a good habit if you gain something in return on what you do while using your phone or computer, but if this will not take you to anywhere and instead you gain you lose, also if your patience is not high then crypto will be bad for you so decide if spending a lot of time on your phone really worths to you. If you are not into this and then follow what your mind saying to you since this will give you a piece of mind.

There is advantages and Disadvantages of everything one does. Yes, really base on the country I came from, there is no constant light for me to login to Bitcointalk anytime I want, so I managed to buy mini Solar system to power my devices.

Since I have this system, my navigating on the internet for information has increased. But that does not mean that I should super glue the internet with the device. If you marry (gum) your phone or PC for a very period of time. The screen will affect your eyes. Which will cause you another expensive. Therefore, you have to schedule your time which you will use to enter and navigate the internet. Really, Bitcointalk is informative, yet you have to rest and relax your brain to accumulate what you have read from other people post if not it affect your brain IQ.

So you have to modirate your reading ability to have good health and sound body system.

I do agree, that spending a lot of time with phone and PC might cause health issues, but as long as one could practice healthy living habits, spending time with gadgets can be taken care of.
And yes, I do agree, you are fascinated to explore more about Bitcoins, so you going on exploring, but I would suggest having regular hours for work designated to make each day useful and also pleasant at the same time.
Happy exploring!!!

The time spent being glued to a phone or p.c, all in the name of trading crypto or bitcoin should be of immense benefits. Otherwise, one wouldnt spend so much time in there.  Habits have thier consequences, one must not smoke or drink before that is considered detrimental to health. Living in the social media space for long hours uninterrupted is not real living, as there is a life happening outside, which is the real world.
I understand the need to earn or increase earnings, but so much money with none to share it with is not really a good idea.

Obviously phone, pc, or any devices have a radiation and doesn't good for your health. But due to technology, everyone getting forced to use it and it also help your activities. You should limit your time to use a device, regularly exercise, eat healthy food and find an active hobby.

Nowadays, the use of various kinds of gadgets has become a priority for many people. But you must understand that by straining your eyes, you risk harming your vision. If you regularly look at your phone without a break, your eyesight will definitely deteriorate. In addition, while reading the forum, you need to take breaks, otherwise, all the information ceases to be properly assimilated. Do not rush, because it is clear that many users who come to the forum mistakenly think that the more they read the information, the faster they will understand all the intricacies of cryptocurrencies. But do not forget that there are people around you who want your attention as well as an offline life, which many people forget, and turn into some kind of zombie, living their life on the Internet.

You need to properly spend your resources so that you do not have to regret anything later.

For me, it's not all about how much time you spend on the phone that matters but how productive you were able to use the few minutes or hours spent on the device that actually matters because come to think of it, had it been you never used your phone, how would you have found out that a forum like this exists? Never... Because I'm here to tell you that there is so much information on the internet that can transform your life to whatever you choose to be, but rather what the majority of people do is prefer to waste away time on social media chatting, gossipping snd following careless hashtags on Twitter and Instagram that adds no value to there lives.
So it's left for you to choose now between frequent use of your phone and you get to access information online or keeping away from phones and missing out on online opportunities that could change your life for good both financially and knowledge-wise.

There's definitely a certain amount of time that will have to be allocated towards spending on the internet, and it will definitely be more than it was before that, but, you don't have to compromise. You could just decrease your leisure time spent on your phone. And I am sure you do have those periods Smiley All in all, don't stress too much about it. If you are thinking about it, that in itself is a positive step forward.

To be truthful, spending a huge time on your phone and pc is surely a bad habit and it can be a reason for your health issues. Because we know that it can cause headache, eye problem and many more. When spending a lot of time on your phone and laptop it will be a bad habit and then you will feel how much dangerous it is.

It depends on your general outcome of your habits. Again, these habits are linked with the stuff that you do (e.g. spending time on your computer/phone playing games, etc.). There is nothing wrong with spending or using your computer/phone if it allows you to learn from the stuff that you do. Since you mentioned that this allows you to learn more about the forum, then you do not have to worry about developing this habit too much.

What makes it negative is when you channel this kind of habit into several stuff that does not equate to any productivity. For example, there are people who spend countless hours using the computer, just casually browsing through social medias, etc.

if you are worried about spending a lot of time on your devices it would be best to regulate the time you spent on your phone or computer. but in my opinion, if spending your time on your devices is productive enough and doesn't affect much of your daily routine or your health, I say go for it.

Or should I continue to regulate the time I spend with my phone and computer.
You need to reset your time for this forum. There are certain times where you can absorb information well based on the ability of the human brain (please google it), in this case digging for information all the time is not really recommended.
And one important thing, you are a social being who needs to interact with the outside world (not just with family).

Bitcoin talk is the best forum it contains knowledge about bitcoins and other related crypto currencies and If you are here you will learn a lot of things all you need is read and understand what the text is then you can share it with your relatives an friends.
I think you need to control your self you need to maintain your health condition, cause phones or PC can give you an not healthy eye when you are abusing it.

Newer smartphones of today come with eye care features like reading mode that somehow reduce the strain on the eye when looking at your screen for a long period of time, you can find these features in the quick menu on android phones, mine has it and it's an android 12.

No, it's not a good habit. Sitting behind a computer screen all day or using a mobile phone for long hours isn't good for your health especially for your eyes.
Besides, spending many hours a day reading about a subject doesn't mean you will understand it or learn more about it faster. At the contrary, your mind won't be able to absorb and process all that new information.
At least, use a desktop computer rather than a mobile device and try to get a good monitor with large screen size and a high resolution.

Our daily lives have become increasingly dependent on the Internet, but it has also brought many dangers. Internet addiction is becoming an increasingly common problem without us even being aware of it. Defining how many hours one should spend online as "normal" is difficult, but certain behaviors can indicate excessive use. As a result of daily or long-term engagement in online activities, you may neglect your other activities, such as everyday tasks and chores, time with family and friends, or the requirements of your job or education. Whenever excessive time is spent online, it can reduce the quality of your life, which then can affect the quality of your work and your relationships.

For many people, excessive use of the Internet is a lifestyle, not just a habit. If you feel you are using the Internet excessively, you should consult your physician to find out if this behavior might be a symptom of a more serious health problem. Seek professional help to understand the possible causes and treatment options of excessive Internet use and other online or digital addiction. Excessive Internet can be linked to other problems. The presence of a mental health disorder may increase the risk of excessive Internet use. Other risk factors include social isolation, depression, stress, and addiction to online gambling, or online social networking.

It depends on perspective, I think you believe that this is becoming addictive for you. In the OP your reason for spending most of time online is this “after finding out that a big determinant to one's financial success will soon depend on the amount of information one possesses” I beg to differ, you can also get information from reading books, knowledge is not limited to the forum. Also how many hours in a day do you spend on the forum and how does it affect your productivity in the day? If you’re the sort that sits on the couch all day, drinking beer and lives on the internet then there may be risk factors for your health.

You need to spend more time elsewhere than on digital technologies. If it is necessary then only spend time on the forum or cryptocurrency related website. Mental health is one of the most serious issue in today's internet based lifestyle. Keep yourself as much away from the internet as you can. There are a lot of activities that you can do outside that will help you in increasing your productivity.
