I don't think you should force yourself to do either.

If you're more comfortable focusing on one thing for a while then you should do that, if not it'll be useless.

If you're a newbie here I think trying to get a broad sense of everything is a good start. If you're focusing on one thing you'll have to keep going from widening your content exposure to reducing it (repeatedly) and I don't think that's a good way to start unless you don't know how to find other things or only have one specific interest at the time you started here.

If you're interested in crypto you'll do much better being interested in that on here than you will be by having interest in the forum (a lot of users a skeptical of newer users who try to police the forum too as soon as they arrive via reputation topics and trust).
It will be best if a newbie starts to familiarize everything in the market first before he goes specific and chose his own specialization. That way, he will be knowledgeable in all areas in the crypto market as that would be his edge so he can be successful later on. And eventually, he may find and settle on his own niche as time goes by. Because I believe at the end of the day, any newbie will discover his strengths and weaknesses in time that will push him to do his best and excel on his own chosen niche.

It's not news that specialization in a particular area brings out a lot of quality in people's works. But do you guys think that a newbie should focus on developing a niche to thrive in or diversify his/her interests as much as possible
Before you begin to diversify your niche, it can be beneficial to first develop yourself and specialise in an area while you observe and learn about other areas you would like to try out before you go and contribute there. Rushing to contribute everywhere even before you have an idea of the subject, thinking it is a good strategy to learn will only result in you being labelled as a shitty poster and most likely ignored by some forum members since they have noticed that you have no idea of what you are saying.

When we referring to newbie in this forum, we are mistaking something at the same time to the word called newbie. The reality talking regarding to newbie is that there are some already experienced before finding this platform or other means that may be they are already reading here or have account here but if genuinely newbie that have no knowledge at all before having a account, that kind of newbie referred to a "virgin newbie", it is better for such kind of newbie to developing a niche and grow init. Developing a niche is out of what area you have the passion and you start to develop in it fast than forcing yourself in area you are struggling. That is why there is many boards in the forum, you can concentrate on the boards you can contribute very well and add value to it and as you get more experience you can diversify to other aspect. I think diversification is also depending on areas you will do better based on the interest and capacity you have.

That depends on why you are here. Personally, I think it’s good to have a niche as this helps you understand one thing at a one time, otherwise it gets too messy. But for nebiew, it’s good to have a general view before selecting their niche.

Apart from the beginners& help section, is there any other board or childboard you could recommend for a newbie?
Don't limit yourself in that way when the forum and its administration haven't restricted your from browsing all subs except for a few less important sections. Start at the top and make your way down. Every sub has a few explanatory sentences about the type of discussions you can expect to find there. Read those and consider if that is something that seems interesting to you. If not, find something else.

That's the best way to understand what this forum has to offer, unless you have a clear idea in your mind of what you want to do here. If that's the case, speak up so we can provide more info.
The forum is housed with many sections of interesting topics one can make input on or grab information from. What is most important is to firstly identify your reason and what information you aim to grab and explore others as your insight expands.
So many boards with many discussions exist, but only someone with clear understanding after going through the posts can make intelligent comment. If you seem to like a particular section in the forum, stick around much longer while exploring others.

I think you should follow your interests and what interests you.
Each of the forum members is different and is interested in a different aspect of the crypto industry.
Are you more interested in technology, business, or maybe you just want to meet crypto enthusiasts from your local area?
Only you know the answer to these questions, and accordingly you will choose the part of the forum that suits your interests.
Personally, I believe that investments should be diversified, not personal interests  Grin
No one can follow all areas and be an expert in everything.
No one may be doing something without the interest on it. So definitely, there should be high interest and focus on the things that keep you growing. Like in crypto forum, if you think you are good in gambling discussion, then go for it because that will develop you skills in gambling too. However, if I were to suggest, once you enter the forum, you should be knowledgeable in all aspects of the forum, like in bitcoin discussion, trading discussion, or even in gambling discussion. That way, whatever task you are given, you will never be left behind.

No, it is not necessarily important to have a niche in this forum as you can still make your point or it can be discredited.  Establishing a niche doesn't hurt and is more beneficial if there are areas you hang out or specialize in.

Hundred percent true. This is why I do not really look towards the forum ranking that much when I answer someone else's question. I sometimes visit Mining section and knowing that some lower "forum rank" users ask something that I do not even know what is it all about just tells that the forum ranking just means nothing.

A user could be a newbie rank by chances due to the forum system, but the knowledge of the user might say otherwise.

Specialization depends on the individuals you could be comfortable with the current state (Section) you are which needed an advancement or an enhancement. There are many people who have been specialized on a particular areas but have not enhances their skills and mode of operations, so for you to be a specialist you need to go for information to be active on your field of studying or workplace and even marketplace, particularly area of concern towards the forum.

Diversification is good amd import but dont start any yet until tou have the confidence to be able to run one, what would be the essence of making diversity and having nothing to show for it, if you're talking about being diversified onbthis forum then you must have acquired a knowledge at a very reasonable convincing standard in that particular area in other not to make your post off topic or shit post that will end up been deleted, so when the time comes, you yourself will have the urge to diversify, its a natural flow that comes along with your progress in learning things.

If someone is Newbie on this forum, it does not mean that he is completely ignorant. forum rank only shows the length of presence on this forum, and every newbie should first start from his interests and what he knows best until he gets to know the forum.
Any board or child board is fine for Newbies, as long as they participate in the discussion on the topic.

We have a number of different discussions that are going on in the forum. In addition to a number of general topics, we also have sections for alternative cryptocurrencies as well as sections that are based on other interests, such as technology, gambling and more.

In the end, I think it boils down to this: In this ever-changing world of cryptocurrencies and blockchain technologies, where new discoveries are being made every month, there is no shortage of interested people around the globe. Whether you want to talk with fellow enthusiasts about your newest investment, get help with an issue you're having online, or try and figure out the philosophy behind this technology that possesses so many millions of global users, you'll have a great place to start in our forum community.

So, if you are interested in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, I think you have a lot to gain from joining this forum. You will not only learn a lot about cryptocurrency in general but you will also find new friends and make connections that can prove to be valuable in the future. It is well worth your while.

For someone who truly wants to learn bitcoin it will be good to concentrate more on bitcoin first. Giving time to other board that doesn't relate to bitcoin may cause one to lose focus. Having a niche in the forum is not bad, if people decides to make bitcoin discussion board a niche it is a good one because the forum is to learn about bitcoin.

I recall this figure of speech when I was learning programming back in the days.

Quote
"Jack of all trades, master of none."

Just learn what you wanted to learn in Bitcoin through this forum. Fancy general Bitcoin discussion? We got Bitcoin Discussion board there. Just general economics in crypto? We got Economics.
Oh you wanted to learn more about Mining? Mining section is for you there.
How about trading in crypto? See that "Trading Discussion" board, feel free to read around and join discussions there.

You do not need to learn everything in this forum, OP. Just pick a niche and stick with it.

It all depends on what your interests are. Take your time to learn some things about the forum first (I personally read this forum for months before even registering)  and feel free to be active where you think that you can either learn something new or share your knowledge.


You cant like 2 different things the same way. The best way to go far is to specialize in a particular area that you know you like the most and also good at first. After that, you can move to the next if you have the capacity to thrive in it but you have to keep in mind my first statement.
OP is talking about forum here, not about specialization if the professional sense.

If we're talking about specialization in cryptocurrency, I will advise you to hold onto a particular area like Blockchain Developer, Security Architect, or Software Engineer there's always an available job in this specialization and they're paid an awesome salary.

I think it is rather backwards. People must seek and know their own interests first, and also be able to see what curiosity that drives themselves instead of directly pointing out which niche to thrive in. To be able to specialise within a niche, some people require a broad interest and knowledge on the first hand to see what "works" in that particular niche. Nevertheless, if what you trying to ask is the classic specialist vs generalist problem, then it has no meaning at all since there is no urgency or any responsibility demand on this forum.

It depends on what you are planning to do because if you are here to focus on a single thing, whether it's about Bitcoin Development, Altcoin development, Gambling, or any other topic that you are interested in, it can help a lot of people who are interested in it as well. It will be praised if it's not yet posted or is a duplicate of an old one. You can post a new one, and make sure to reference the old thread if that's what you want. As long as you contribute to the community, it will be a job well done.

What is your goal exactly? It sounds like you are treating this forum as a career, like getting a high rank and then joining a campaign. Because otherwise there's no responsibilities here, you don't need a high rank to use all the valuable features of this forum, it's simply a place to discuss Bitcoin.

If you want to earn a lot of merit, then it's better to specialize in something as a beginner - the inner workings of Bitcoin, trading, economics, altcoins and so on. Because generally you need to show some good insight to earn merit, and as a beginner it's simply not possible to learn everything about all topics in short time.
