Topic: I just kick off my bitcoin journey (Read 347 times)

Marykeller, thanks for a very inspiring post, one of the best I’ve read lately.
What you wrote touched me a lot because as a sponsor through an NGO I financially help a girl in Africa to be able to go to school regularly and have a better future through education.
She unfortunately doesn't have a computer and a cell phone, and Internet access, so I still can't teach her about bitcoin and crypto but I'm planning to do it later and change her life.
So, you are really doing what I want to teach her when she is ready and I wish you a lot of success on your crypto journey.
Even if you don't currently have the finances to buy cryptocurrencies in the services under market (on this forum), you have some opportunities to earn bitcoin through various paid projects. Maybe a good place to start.

Wow, this is a huge step you've taken, I know must west African countries let me just say Africa as a whole, does not support women In all this kind of stuffs, well I'm also new year but from the little time I have spent here I know we'll assured that you have came to the right place and you will receive alot love, attention and also be carried along if you are willing to learn. So once again you are welcome to this amazing forum.

You are welcome to bitcointalk, you've made the best decision to buy bitcoin (the magic internet money) a decision you would look back and beat your chest and be proud of what you did. But you must pay attention to the rules of the forum before your bitcoin journey is cut short before even starting. You are guilty of the rules quoted above. I wish you the best on your journey.

Not only been a great woman in cryptocurrency. I also want my fellow community women to join me to benefit from it. Awareness and knowledge of cryptocurrency shouldn't restrain from others. It's a wide exposure for others to grab and learn from cos we're into the digital era where cryptocurrency is the only leading way

Am taking my whole time to go through every single board  I need more good knowledge about crypto before I could kick-off my journey fully.
There's so much to discover here. Am so much happy to be in the crypto sphere. It's a roller coaster journey

Welcome Mary, the future is very bright for you, you will not regret being on this forum, you will do great, you might just end up being another great woman cryptocurrency.

Feel free here and learn as much as you can. you can grab even free tokens which they call Airdrop. just participate in some campaigns if you care capable and ready to handle the task. it is a great community we have here and also remember there are scammers everywhere looking for newbies to scam from them. be careful out there.

Welcome to Bitcointalk, we are glad that you're now engaging with the community. For now, it is best to become more familiarized to our dear forum, read those pinned messages on every board especially the posting guidelines and the rules here on our forum. Explore. Engage with various discussions that you wanted to join or start. There are lots of things that you can learn here. You can also try offering your services on this section. Enjoy yourself

A huge welcome to you hope to see your coins rise in the near future and ensure you DYOR on each coin you intend to buy so as to understand the purpose behind the developer. Not every cheap coin would see the break light of market capitalization. Most of them will die off in a short while. Ensure you do proper research before making investments

It's a wonderful feeling getting to know that we have Africans in here. We Africans are changing the lives and well-being of our society and community at large. ''We are representing". Am here to explore more knowledge I can from different boards and angles. I can't keep this eye-opening forum site (bitcointalk.org) about crypto to myself alone

Thanks for finding me worthy for your encouragement (the merit). Am eagerly ready and willing to learn what crypto is all about. My sole aim and desire is for my community women to be financially free and grab the everlasting changing career of crypto cos we're in a digital era where women suppose to utilize their given potential to learn and explore more than being caged on traditionally believe that women supposed work is to be in the kitchen

Am already having a more exciting journey here. There is much knowledge about crypto to learn from this forum. Am already exploring the best knowledge I can that will enable me to be a good educator to fellow women and my community at large that lack knowledge about crypto

I think not in developed countries, but still women tends to fear technical side of bitcoin am just saying also does men, but it still about individuals and not gender, but in places where women has limitations then I think the rumors you talked about stands, but if they can have access to as little as a phone with working internet then their desires of learning will be their breakthrough.

There's being a rumours about women not being participative in bitcoin, not like there aren't women but, it seems to be very little compared to the men. How true is this claim? No one really knows for sure following the anonymity that all crypto investors carry about. So, the claim is another perception from spoken words but then, seeing a woman from a part of the world where women suffer from unjust policies and custom of the old world, coming out with a vision that extends to the liberation of other women, its an admired and embraced act.

Its nice and I really hope you don't give up as your ideas don't end with you, your local community stands to gain a lot too and that's what history wants to remember.

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your time while you learn bitcoin from this forum.
It is enough to search for everything about bitcoin and altcoins from here, and I am sure you will like it while you want to know more about bitcoin and altcoins.
My advice will be careful if you want to buy bitcoin for your investment, and if you decide to buy bitcoin, just make sure you buy a low price.
Besides that, you should be careful about free giveaways that you might see out there, and if that program offers to give you big money in the short term, but you need to send money to them, just skip it because that is fake. Many new people are not aware of that, and they send the money to them but suddenly, they lose that money because that is a scam.
I hope you can learn more from this forum, so you can find what you want.

It is indeed changing, with the incessant printing of more and more Fiat currencies, definitely the repercussions of it all being Inflation is going to 'come back home to roost' sooner than later and that's going to cause major discomfort, especially for the common people, Bitcoin can be put to good use as a hedge against devaluing/changing fiat currencies and the traditional system; there's already an influx of traditional institutions into the network for almost the same reason, if you believe in the network, then you can go for it.

Having said that, before you 'kick off', there are a couple of hassles associated with being your own bank in the Bitcoin network, and that's the fact that you have to learn all the security protocols inherent in the network, there are risks concerns, but if you learn about them all, and how scammers operate in the network, then you are 'good to go', also remember that 'whatever is too good to be true, is actually not true'.

You are welcome to the site and already you have a good start, you show a real
hunger to learn and make your life better and also the people around you.

There are some really top African members here on the forum, Charles-Tim who
posted above is one top newcomer and CryptopreneurBrainboss is another who is very active both on the forum and on the ground.

Good day everyone, I am Marykeller from a west African country. I just stumbled on cryptocurrency. Am always to learn every day but my background where I came from, the society has put on an embargo on women in my area but I have taken a bold step today by making my first post and this my first post, I believe will lead to much more fruitful post for me and much much knowledge acquired. Am not just here to invest in bitcoin, no no no, I don't even have the financial capability to buy bitcoin now. But I believe that bitcoin will be something for the future and will liberate women like me from a community that is still backward. Now, why do I want to learn bitcoin? Before I start enumerating why I want to learn more about bitcoin. As I said before, I am ever willing to learn type. I have gone to some workshops with the money I have saved from farming. In some of the workshops and seminars, I have been to, in between the talks, bitcointalk.org came up and this is me registering. Am not here just for any other purpose but am here for one

1. To improve my cryptocurrency knowledge. While even improving my knowledge,   to make every other woman that I can reach benefit from what I have. Because I am seen as a leader and I have finished secondary school. And I have the vision to still further my education in a region where female education is encouraged.
2. To be able to sustain in this ever-changing financial system.
3. I just believed bitcoin is the future.

I think my stay here is going to impact not just me alone but to the less minimum of 50 women's life and change some children's futures as well.
As they say "women are the backbone of the family''
