Thanks but I’ll like to ask if this platform is all about bitcoins and it’s advantages, uses to us and it’s help financially
Welcome to the forum!
This platform is indeed a great place to learn about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. It’s not just about the financial aspect, but also about understanding the technology behind it, the blockchain. Bitcoin, as the first cryptocurrency, has paved the way for a new kind of financial system, one that operates independently of traditional banking structures. It offers a decentralized system, meaning no single entity has control over the entire network. It provides a level of transparency that isn’t typically found in traditional financial systems, and it can be a hedge against inflation in certain economies. The value of Bitcoin can be quite volatile, and it’s possible to lose your investment. That’s why it’s crucial to do your research and understand what you’re investing in. Happy learning!

Follow the discussions going on here and read up the definitions of terms you do not understand. Also pay attention to what some experts like those who understand blockchain technology have to say. You won't miss the experts when you read their posts. They're your greatest resource here. Also learn from the experience of other members, Bear in mind never to part with your bitcoins especially since there are projects and scammers working hard to steal them from you if you have some.

Hi there,
I would recommend these website/book as starting point
https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook
https://learnmeabitcoin.com/

In case you have specific question, you might find the answer either on https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/ or this forum. You could use https://ninjastic.space/search to perform search on this forum, which is IMO better than default search function on this forum.

Make your self busy if you really want to learn about bitcoin. disregard all stories you hear about people making money from bitcoin and Understand that bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme so learning should be your focus as a newbie.


Thanks but I’ll like to ask if this platform is all about bitcoins and it’s advantages, uses to us and it’s help financially
Yes, the forum focuses on everything related to bitcoin, it’s technical aspects like wallets to use, new bitcoin improve proposals, political aspects and lots. But you can also discuss other cryptocurrencies too.

If you have even services to render related to bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency, the forum is also here for That.

The forum is also full of experts who have both the technical and fundamental knowledge of cryptocurrency and will help with troubles with you having to pay for anything. Scam projects or phishing wallets or scam sites are also been exposed.

Just stick around and follow discussion topics here and you will learn a lot about bitcoin, it’s advantages and concepts. Make sure to read and make more research then ask questions about what you don’t understand.

You are in the right place to learn about bitcoin but learning can be easy for you if you are ready and can be focused and can be also consistent in learning. Bitcoin is not something that you can learn everything at a time , learning bitcoin is a gradual process,  take your time and learn so that you will be able to do things right. Learning is the first step in bitcoin which will really help your investment to be productive.

Do we always have to make links available for these newbies for easy access on the forum? I mean I don't think they asked for such guidelines when trying to register on the forum which means they can as well find their way round these rules!. The problem is no matter how much help you proffer, some newbie will come up tomorrow and still repeat the process and I begin to wonder how they'd manage to survive here if they can't research or simply surf the boards. Roll Eyes

Yes. It does seem silly that they expect so much hand-holding through every step though.  If taking a couple minutes to search and read is too much trouble for them, no wonder they keep repeating the same errors!

We all started clueless once and  as long as they're willing to put in the effort to learn, I don't mind giving a few pointers.  But they gotta meet us halfway! We cant spoon feed everything or waste time reexplaining what's easily searchable.

You get my drift, bruh. It's not like I'm against encouraging them to feel comfortable on the space but it seems most newbies are more interested in making their first post than anything else. I just wish we can have less "I'm a newbie" posts and get something more. For me that line is getting quite old.

Welcome to bitcointalk. There are lots of solid materials here to get you started on your crypto journey. May I suggest you start with the pinned threads on this board. If you get tired of reading and want to watch videos. I recommend you visit Andreas Antonopoulos YouTube channel.
He is one of the few people out there with useful content. His book “ Mastering Bitcoin” is also a good place to start.


I’ll like to ask if this platform is all about bitcoins and it’s advantages, uses to us and it’s help financially

This is a bitcoin forum. The primary reason this forum was created was/is for bitcoin enthusiasts and developers to share their ideas and opinions on the project. The forum has evolved from when it first started, there’s been several changes to the forum. Signature campaigns, art contests amongst others are ways members can earn here. If I were you, I wouldn’t think too much about the financial benefits of the forum for now, the currency you can earn on the forum is Bitcoin. You need to first learn how Bitcoin works before you can make a living off it.

I will suggest you start reading information from the forum. The forum has enough materials about Bitcoin that can enlighten any newbie. You should also consider reading the Bitcoin Whitepaper to enable you to get a foundation knowledge about Bitcoin. Andreas Antonopoulos is a good educator on Bitcoin, his educational books and videos will be helpful in your path to learn about Bitcoin. His book Mastering Bitcoin: Programming the Open Blockchain can be downloaded freely on some websites.

Also, the internet is filled with information on the crypto space, do your research. But ensure you verify the information you get from reliable sources. If you have any relevant questions, you can ask them in the forum and you will quality answers.
