When we talked about earning a crypto currency, it’s better to teach a man how to earn from it than giving him a currency, because like what the quote said giving them is just for one day of uses,but teaching them is for a lifetime.

'If you give a man a fish, he will eat for a day. Teach him how to fish and he eats for a lifetime"

This quote for me sums ups the best strategy for succeeding in cryptocurrency. Too many people trawl through forums, articles and youtube videos looking for what people say will be the next big coin. All you are doing here is accepting free metaphorical fish of people. A better strategy would be to learn about blockchain, distributed ledgers, distributed consensus and immutability. Then look into geopolitical events, then look into other economic markets outside of cryptocurrency for macro trends and then you will be able to make decisions on solid projects for yourself. This whole movement is about becoming independent so relying on other peoples opinions to form your own is a very dangerous game

It is good to receive anything from others but the best thing that can others can give and share to us is a lifetime knowledge that we can use for a lifetime. There is a facts that it's our pressure to receive the things that are ready to use than to need to working on it first before we can use it. But the worst thing is you can only have this for ones. It is much better to give or share the things that can be much useful for a long period of time.

It is better to teach him how to fish than to give him a fish. It is better for him to learn to know how to earn so that in the near future he can stand on his own.

First you need to dedicate a lot of time to understand how things work, which is hard even for a tech person. Also not eveyone has time for that and nobody is paying you for learning.

I think it is on those people (with reputation) who understand technology, to share insights and benefits of using it.
Like using internet. Most people dont know how it works but benefits are clear and useful ( same can be said for car, cell phone, pills, monetary systems...)

Cryptocurrency is a gambling. There's no assurance, but we have to do it by our own, so that there will be no regrets. If you just wait, well at the end, it will not be worth it.

Definitely, I agree with the author's comments on how an individual should do with regards to learning in cryptocurrency. I think it would be better also that you should have to do your own research and perform self study through Google and You tube and not just rely on asking many questions on the forum which is sometimes redundant with the other early threads. It doesn't mean that all the comments will be beneficial to your end but there are some comments also that you may consider applicable to your understanding and preference.

Learning all the superficials about bitcoin is indeed useful, but in the long run, it is really ideal to get to the bottom of what really makes bitcoin successful so far, and what improvements can be made in order for it to be an undisputed cryptocurrency. Going with the flow is not really going to be very beneficial in the long run. Seeing things ahead requires a deeper understanding of the technology and I believe that this will be the major driving force for one to succeed in this community.

Yes just totally relying on others opinion would not be helpful all the time.It would be like taking risks blindly.Spending time to learn about the basics of cryptos,their price histories and the future developments in the crypto industry only would help anyone to sustain in this new industry for a long time.

There is one slight difference though. You can't just connect to the Blockchain and start receiving free Bitcoins. You would need a stick and a cord and some grubs to start fishing. For Bitcoin, mining equipment aka the fishing equipment equivalent would run you several ten or hundred thousand dollars easily. If you want to work in the crypto space, you would need to get a degree or learn skills and get paid like any common day job out there. Bitcoin doesn't provide free riches to everyone.
It's good that this topic has been brought up on this forum. Better teach a person and let him do it for himself, than to do it for him. In this way, it would test his productivity, skill, and being wise to deal difficult situations. In relation to cryptocurrency, I believe one should seek more information inorder to learn and grow and is aware of the difference between knowing and doing. As much as possible enriching our knowledge and educating ourselves are very important because once we acquired these, it will never be taken or stolen away from us, it would prepare us on board anytime.

I totally agree with that. Spoon-feeding will not do a thing. With regards to crypto, the forum is a good medium for learning. This serves an interactive guide to everyone. However, we can execute our own strategy to further learn on our own.

Let me add the quote of Abraham Lincoln "Give me 6 hours to cut down a tree and I will spend the first hour sharpening the axe" it is a great quote for the beginners who are entering the world of cryptocurrency, If you will enter the world of cryptocurrency you must first have some knowledge and you must do some preparations about it. mostly this is the mistakes that are done by the beginners.

first, give him a fish, that is essential otherwise the man will die, and after that off course you will have a time to teach him how to fish for the rest of his life, both actions are good and acceptable depending on situation.

skill is definitely more valuable than money. Smart people spend money in order to learn something. The most embarrassing investment, this investment in their education and skills

Lol this reminds me of Bitconnect (BCC) they also made some promises like this and told people that BCC coin is going to be the next bitcoin and those people kept giving these newbies or hungry people profit for a temporary time and after they invested their most of the money they've earned or Lifesaving they ran away. If someone had taught them how to avoid such websites rather than referring those people to them then it wouldn't have been such a big disaster.

Teaching someone hoe to fish is very important considering the fact that when he's taught how to fish he wont be always asking from you. I remember when I knew nothing about Crypto. It took me 2 weeks to know how to fish for cryptos and thanks to the one who taught me how to fish on my own because it has made me who I'm today. So you need to teach how fish and to give always.

I agree with your statement. It's better to tell the way than we give him a result. Because everyone has their own way to develop a way to get results. As in this cryptocurrency.

yeah the reasons mentioned are very logical but when people don`t want to be taught and have closed themselves into new things and wait for some "analysts" to predict the market you can`t teach them anything.

First crypto index traded as a token!
Of course it's better to learn all ins and outs about crypto, to know what's going on in the world, especially the financial world. If you have a clear overall view on world economics, you could make wiser decisions. And to get all this, reading about other people's opinions, going through forums, articles etcetera, is very helpful.

That is an obvious thing. Once you yourself are clear with the entire system, and you possess the necessary facts n figures, you need not ask anyone or be dependent on anybody. That is why it is very clear that one should be equipped with the required knowledge well before investing, trading and posting on this forum.

But bitcoin talk forum is a platform where people with some knowledge and others who are newbies interact with each other and share their point of views. So I don't think there is anything wrong in doing that. if someone has a query may clarify it here on this forum. that does not mean, you will be judged. But of course stupid questions are just a waste of time.
