It's not so easy but it's achievable. First thing is to cool off the excitement of making huge returns or doubling your investment and potrayed by scam individuals or projects. However you will still need to take risks but risking what you can afford to lose is very important.
Forget about quick benefits since that only gives you as higher risk of losing your money, focus with how will you learn deeper and how this venue of investment will gives you a good returned. Start aiming for long term engagement and always focus with knowledge that you'll be able to get each time you deal with trading.

From this longest bear market learned we learned a lot, we see that nothing can´t grow forever without any deep correction, we see that altcoins are not stable and they are not recommended for long term. Look at top 100 altcoins now and compare them with year 2016 or 2017. In the next bull run we have to better manage our earnings and not succumb to the fomo effect.  Roll Eyes

Honestly If anyone just come into crypto space through a link or online ads it's easier to get lost and fall victim to scams, i never get hacked for once or lost money to scam projects simply because I favoured learning things I don't know anything about, why can't people be like this either? This will easily safe you from money doubling schemes and Ponzi schemes, please newcomers and members, be more willing to learn.
Yup, that's so right! Learning never ends. There is no level that you will reach and learning would end. As you keep learning, the more you will get to know about things that you never knew before. When I started cryptocurrency, and not just cryptocurrencies alone, including other online investments, I don't rush into anything I see.

There are some sites I will see, no matter how good they look, I will still go to Google and search for reviews about them to know what others think about them and whether they are scammers or not. This is very important, especially when you're a newbie, because you're still new and you don't understand how things works here. So you need to rely on doing research to help yourself out.

Usually investors who are falling in this trap are newbies or greedy investors who want to earn easy money and not thinking about the risk of getting scam.

Its a must to learn before entering in any kind of investment opportunity. If you know the necessary things then you wont end up joining/investing in scam projects.

Totally true. Learning is a continuous process and we learn from the experience we got from every situation we have gone through. Well, with regards on cryptocurrency, since it lies on the modern technology which is continuously upgrading or improving wherein lots of modifications are being made, learning and keep on learning will be a best tool to be able not to get fooled into schemes of scams because users and investors are not the only one that are getting wiser because even scammers and hackers do find new way to took advantage of any people so being updated and knowledgeable will be a great key to avoid being victimized by those kind of people. Continuously learning new things will save you from future harm like scams and hacks that is the main risks here in the crypto industry so better learn more to become more aware of not being fallen into their traps.

If we want improvement then we should focus more on how we will learn more, we should focus on read and watch informative materials that can help us to become a better investor or trader. Investing in learning should be our first priority before we make investment in trading or any investment vehicle.

We can lessen the risks if we have prior knowledge about it. We should continue to study because it is the bridge for us to become successful. We should not also afraid to make mistake because mistakes can become help us to become better person. Mistakes are good as long as we find the lesson from it.

Many of us making a mistake, but we can learn from that mistake, and that makes us improve our knowledge and skills to be better than before. We keep learning to get more information that will be useful for us in the future, so we have more experience from what we did before. That will help us to get better things that we want, and I think that will make us close to what we want.
Indeed. But it is much better to learn from the mistakes of other people, so that you won't commit the same mistake that other people have experienced. We should be really keeping ourselves to learn everyday because our knowledge is the only thing that no one can't take us from us, that is why you should never be afraid to fail and to commit mistakes because it means you are continuously learning.

almost every day I learn about crypto, especially now that the world is haunted by a corona outbreak so people can't be active out there and can only stay indoors until the situation is conducive. on the other hand, of course I will not remain silent to continue researching what crypto is, offering freelance services and finding out more about what I don't know about crypto. as the saying goes time is money.

i like you man . you use the situation to study hard on crypto and related to it but i guess many people are like that because they are looking for ways to earn income so search results can give them cryptos like what i did before when i was searching the same thing  .  crypto was even popular now so results should go out easily    . aside from earning potential , cryptos can also be useful on other ways especially that many payment solutions are unavailable due to the crisis  . learning and continue learning is important as this makes us smart in the long run because many fraudster and scamers  do also exist on this industry

Because people are very greedy that is why many are losing their money easily, newbie are taking the easiest path to earn money which is very opposite to the real world. There is no easy money in crypto especially if you are still a newbie as you didn't know yet how to play the market correctly in order to profit.

Learning is the best solution for it and I agree with you, our daily experience are very important learning that we should keep on growing if we like to avoid any foul play or tactics from scammers just to rob our hard earned money.

Absolutely correct, I could vividly remember when I newly get into the cryptocurrency community, things were actually very strange in my own sight and later get note exposure to the world of cryptocurrency. Backed in these days, the ideas of be a bitcoiner wasn't there because of my altitude towards the technology but later started learning and still learning til date.

This has been my best experience so far, and am still enjoying the mode of learning when it comes to cryptocurrency. Getting the knowledge for me, is the very best anyone can get out of this technology and not the financial freedom only.

Yes, crypto is a crucial asset we need to research and keep on going through articles to avoid mistakes, to overcome this we need to learn and observe the market situation only then we have to Invest.

Panic and Greedy are two bad habits in crypto, whoever has these two, they will surely lose a good amount of money and profits! But if you learn things well and you know what to do with the different situations, you will be safe anytime, bull or bear market will not be a major fact for you!
Yes, panic and greedy could be overcome by experience and by learning lots of practices for it. I believe these habits are more dangerous for traders and gamblers and usually all crypto adopters also getting affected by these habits because they are reacting based on these things which will affect the entire crypto ecosystem as well. This is the reason many people are suggesting about not listening to FUDs and FOMO.

to achieve this knowledge you have to read, practice and learn! OP, I agree with your view! Learning can safe a crypto enthusiast from foul plays!
I also agree that learning must be important part of being successful crypto adopter. Because, this space requires continuous learning to update our knowledge about securing our crypto savings and making it grow by investing in reliable resources. people who forget about learning may lose their position and may become a common man in rest of world.

Smile! Is good to be learning day by day but  this  can only  minimize the chance of been scamed not to eradicate scam. No matter how you learn or make a research, you will still for victim at times.
Because scammers are also growing but if you keep your mins equip with the right knowledge, then they will not succeed on you. I do believe on continuous learning especially on trading and investing, cryptocurrency is very volatile and if you don’t have knowledge on that, then expect to lose money.

That is the right thought. One thing about life is that learning never stops. It is more like a necessity in this journey of life. The day a man stops learning, that day is when he starts to become vulnerable.
also, learning can either be conscious or unconsciously and do not assume you know it all, maybe through materials that you read. You can also learn from a fellow human whom on a normal ground might seem to know nothing.

Never stop learning, this is so simple to say yet its hard to follow this one. Sometimes the best lesson are come from a failure so I think this is normal now to a newbie and I’m sure they will learn easily if they got scam. Knowing the best project is a must, and of course if you’re on a shit project better not to expect too much from that.

We should never stop learning because in the future it can be our best asset to earn and make more profit. I know the struggle to learn more new things especially in this field, and it's not easy just like that but if you have a determination to learn, I'm sure in the end you will become knowledgeable. Most of the newbies have difficulty finding the best projects, and right now the market is now full of scam and shit project plus, sometimes the decent project that we find turns into a shit project. We should always exert more effort and time to learn new things and having various knowledge in cryptocurrency will totally help you determine which project will have potential in the future. That's right mate, don't expect too much on shit projects and it's better to avoid them than risk your money to it.

But, this time I have a lot of time to learn more things because we are on enhanced community quarantine and somehow reading more articles/books about cryptocurrency and blockchain helps me to reduce my boredom in our house, and at the same time improving my knowledge.

When you simply look into the core reason why most people are getting hacked is, clicking anonymous links and installing software without bothering the checksum. Yes, it is all about knowledge which is possible only if we keep on learning new things and getting ourselves aware on various recent incidents with respect to online security and other related things.

I believe into this forum whenever I'm not sure about something I will straightly come here to open in a new topic to get answers for my doubts. This community is always awesome to get me what I am exactly looking for. Without help from this community, I would have turned a victim some long time back itself.

It is just because most people here who fell to the scheme are they who just focus on the profit only. They are too focus the profit and forget to find the basic thing before spend their money. Maybe I will understand if there is many people who get scammed when they come to crypto at 2010-2013 ago because at that time there was no one who give an advice to start to invest. But if compare with the current situation, I feel they are fool to be scammed. Because if you try to googling an advice starting to invest then it will be much people who provide it and you just only read it and understood it and I will bet you will never fall to the scammer.

The reason I think why people can't be like you is either they are eager to earn by trying everything than learning things,

This is something that people should realize that learning will never stop and it will continue every day, this is the most important part to avoid scams, investment schemes and other types of hacks that everyone had experienced.

In addition to all you have said which is of course true, most people hardly tell newbies or those showing interest of joining the crypto space the truth or rather the reality of things on ground.  They might have different reasons but that doesn't cut the fact that, the risks etc that exists within the crypto space must be told. Most people join with different expectations and when it is not met are quick to say funny things which points to the fact, they lacked adequate knowledge. So at every point in time, in our own little ways lets make sure the risks etc of the crypto space is being explained this will go a long way in keeping them safe from scams, pump and dump coins etc. Lastly explaining what exists in the crypto space will increase their urge to learn more thus leading to more learning.

Foul play aside, it is said that knowledge is power in most aspects of life.
In crypto currency, either as a trader or an investor or a bounty hunter, there is a need to keep learning, and i mean learning daily if not, you will be left behind.

Alot of projects copying 2017 projects mode of conducting crowdfunding and road-map are no where today, while traders who do not learn by doing proper research activities find themselves in rekt.

Always do your own research, that way you learn even more.

A wise man said, "scientia potentia est" which is a Latin aphorism meaning "knowledge is power" (Francis Bacon). Indeed knowledge is power, that is to say, you need to learn in order to have power over what you want because it is through learning that you will understand how best to guide yourself. You have clearly distinguished it all, most people failed to understand that lies in the crypto space and that's the reason why most always fell for scams, hacks or makes mistakes like losing their keys etc. Therefore I agree with you, until we start learning what is obtainable here, we might keep falling for the wrong things such Ponzi etc.

Well, it is good that you are pretty much aware into your surroundings keeping yourself safe and away from such schemes to avoid being hacked or getting scammed. It is really in need that we must educate ourselves into anything that is new from us to be able to easily adapt and manage to get into such thing properly to avoid doing mistakes that we might regret in the end. But, even if you have already learned the basics and do every precautionary measures needed to avoid unnecessary things to happen, still there can be instances that unexpected things do really happen which we cannot control. But being educated on the thing we do is decreasing the probability for bad things to happen because we are being aware and getting ourselves ready from it. Learning do also involve experiencing mistakes because we learn from our bad experiences as well so that when the same thing happens once again, we can be able to know what to do or if we will think about avoiding doing mistakes, then we will be more careful on our every moves to avoid regrets and doing mistakes. Learning must always be continuous because a lot more information and learnings will soon to come in front of us.

Good for you that you never experienced being hacked. You see, just as I thought I know enough learnings about crypto but I remembered my account was hacked before. Reason? I signed up in mining site. Never thought that upon signing up some of my account will get hacked.

I agreed upon your beliefs but hackers and scammers finds all the way to get some victims. It is our responsibility to think our actions. Regardless all the learnings, "awareness" is one of the important thing to consider.

My research was wrong several times in year 2028-2019 to select legit project. Now I think after learning and losing time, now i can select over 80-90 percent of legit project. Time also a problem last year or 2018, people didn't trust new projects, some legit project also dead. As new investor can easily trust new projects, new hunters can trust all new projects.

I have learned a lot from the experience of crypto and will not fall into a second time. When ICO lending was a trend I was too greedy and believed that investing in a project like that would bring big profits in a short time, but all of that was just a trick so that I fell into it and now I have understood about good investment.
I'm also dealing with a lot of investment opportunity that time, knowing that a lot of people have already gained money with only a small amount of time. But I hesitate to grab it and make some research. Being a newbie in this industry makes a big factor how this crypto investment scam are still out there. The target is the one who had slight awareness about cryptocurrency. There traps had already set to encourage their victim to invest.
Its all right to failed at the beginning but try to learn and overcome this obstacle and make it motivation to learn new things about crypto. Its essential to know things works to be able to success. Don't be lazy and grab every opportunities we had here.

There is really a learning curve here in crypto and as the market is still evolving as it is still fairly young as compare to other traditional markets. And one thing that those scammers are taking advantage is that crypto is supposedly (pseudo) anonymous. That's why they have the audacity to pull that stunt because they know that no one can track them down. And that is why the only weapon we can have against them is to educate ourselves so that we won't fall for their trick.

I agree, but you can't really blame people for being gullible enough to invest on crypto and lost money, specially if you're a beginner. I personally lost some, not in ICO, but on a bitcoin double years ago. I was just a newbie then, and I thought why not? so I invest and it's good because I was able to get a pay. But then I re-invested it again. And sadly, the scammers pull an exit scam.

It was really an eye opener for me and I have learn my lessons very expensive one. Anyways, I move forward never trust anyone with my precious cryptos.

Greediness, ignorance and lack of patience is usually the cause of many newbies falling victims to this ponzi schemes, claiming to be money doublers either via investment, mining or trading which are obviously false claims then promise paying certain percentage based on time period stated on their sites. The problem isn't that these warning aren't clear for those who want to be safe to get rescued but the gullible Investors are just after the profit without wanting to learn first.

The error must be there and everyone will experience it and therefore we must learn more about the knowledge of cryptocurrency and as a result of this forum there are many benefits that we know if we keep reading and seeing it.
Still we already know from experience that a double ponzi scheme is not a good investment, you have to look in more detail at what to learn.
There are a lot of new potential projects around so if you just grab them without further analysis and thorough studies, you will definitely fall into being scammed. Smart investors take their time in learning and came out sucessful but for those newcomers who never mind learning first, they will really fall into lots of foul play.

I have also been trapped in an ICO project when it was popular in 2017. That became an important lesson for me to be more thorough and not FOMO.

We must be more careful in analyzing a project, whether as an investor or bounty hunter, we must conduct a deep analysis and not be easily influenced by marketing advertisements that promise huge profits. Anything can happen, especially since the crypto world is very volatile, make sure you understand the risks, and never invest in something you don't understand

I second that. People out there, especially the newbies fall for those scams due to their ignorance. They see something, they just jumps into it without make further analysis. The more they learn, the more they will know how the whole crypto market works. They will eventually be able to distinguish between whats fake and whats real.
But, yeah, if they have made mistakes, then let those mistakes be a lesson to them. Let them learn from those mistakes so that they don't repeat it anymore in the future.

Anyone that is not greedy will not lose when introduced into a new promising Investment. Wise people do take their time to learn how it works first before they invest not minding any Level of ROI offered.

Honestly If anyone just come into crypto space through a link or online ads it's easier to get lost and fall victim to scams, i never get hacked for once or lost money to scam projects simply because I favoured learning things I don't know anything about, why can't people be like this either? This will easily safe you from money doubling schemes and Ponzi schemes, please newcomers and members, be more willing to learn.

This should be a normal part of human life.
Any day anyone stops learning, whether consciously or unconsciously, then it means such a person is dead.
Life itself is full of lessons, but sometimes we need to push ourselves to learn somethings because if we refuse, we would be forced to learn from our mistakes, which is not the best.
This forum is full of knowledge and knowledgeable ones. therefore, you can tap from them.

I have learned a lot from the experience of crypto and will not fall into a second time. When ICO lending was a trend I was too greedy and believed that investing in a project like that would bring big profits in a short time, but all of that was just a trick so that I fell into it and now I have understood about good investment.

The error must be there and everyone will experience it and therefore we must learn more about the knowledge of cryptocurrency and as a result of this forum there are many benefits that we know if we keep reading and seeing it.
Still we already know from experience that a double ponzi scheme is not a good investment, you have to look in more detail at what to learn.

There is no way you can avoid mistakes and trust me if you want to go forward in not just crypto space but in real life too you have to be ready to fail over again, do not be scared of failing, if you don't fail you can't learn anything

Knowledge is the most essential thing here in cryptocurrency. If you don't have the knowledge to understand what is going on or what is happening here in the cryptocurrency then probably this will become a huge problem for all of them who are unknowledgeable especially with the newbies who are very prone in different foul play.

Every lessons that takes one to higher step comes with failure for start, you can't move forward without failure, if you pray for 'no failure' in your life it's like praying for no achievements in your life, failure is what open doors to success

Good thing you know how to deal with it, buddy. But people aren't like that, and that is the unfortunate reality. People tend to fall easily in such schemes because they want an easy money, they lack of such knowledge about clickbaits and more, they are perhaps an easy to get thing. Nevertheless, stuff like that for first timers are a good thing, IMO. Since it would open up their eyes and minds on worse reality crypto space has. Thus, whenever they go out and see something similar again, the mechanism, is that they would get reminded of a signal that they do have to check things out properly before engaging up again.

Both greed and wanted to get easy ways to earn, it should not be the proper practice when you are working from this kind of industry. One single mistake
will lead you to suffer a lot, especially when you are not aware on how to protect yourself and your asset from those hackers and scammers around. Learn and keep enhancing your knowledge it will save you from any possible bad things to happen with you.

This is the truth, no man is an island of knowledge, and thats why i am very grateful for this forum, it gives an avenue to learn and also to contribute to discussions
And that way i have learned alot, and also contributed my quota.

It also applies to trading, if you can learn to curb greed and anxiousness, you could be a great trader.

Exactly bro, in life learning never stops, everyday we continue to learn more and understand better that is the only way to have the necessary information to survive, if you don't learn, you can easily get cheated, so very necessary to read and learn to have good knowledge of things happening around us or around the world.
It also save us from falling victim easily,  if you have good knowledge of things you can easily spot a scam from miles away.

Until now the ponzi scheme still continues, even the scamer is now promoting through the telegram channel, it might be effective for them to find victims, while we must be more careful with the ponzi scheme by doubling because it is an unnatural investment because it is true that such investments are really not legitimate.
Do not rush to make investments, always use research first before investing, including ICO, IEO as well.

   We learn all the time, in crypto-currencies there's something new everyday, learning process never ends. Sometimes we make a mistake,
that shouldn't affect you too much, learn from mistakes and learn to never try something with all the money you have, learn how much you can
risk and not be damaged if something goes wrong. Only when you checked something you can try to invest more money, but be careful as much
as you can, and if you are not completely sure in something don't invest.
   And one more thing, if sounds too good to be truth, it's probably not! Don't get trapped with big letters and promises, do your homework,
do some research, ask others before you make a move!

Of course. Ponzi schemes are currently widely used to get money faster than having to cheat through the deposit steps as before. Ponzi scheme is a scheme created to create a stealing strategy or we will be stolen. therefore first understand how the scheme is used when following a trading program. do not until you become the last user because your money will only be stolen.

Ponzi scheme is another form of scam where people are cheated in a smart way, while launching their coin they will show you heaven in hand by stating false promises also they will make you more addict to it, At the end of the day you will be cheated and all your investment or effort will go in vain..

That is some bold words there. Never get hacked.

But I do agree with you that learning deeply about the project you plan to invest is really important. No matter how many people say and advertise that crypto activities get you easy money, always do your research first. About the practicality of the project, the credibility of the team behind it, and its support to investors. With these, you somehow minimized the chance of being scammed.

Apart from doubling schemes and ponzi schemes there are many tokensales, icos and stos that are scams and the problem is that they look real and it is often very hard to decide if it is real or fake project so many people invest in hope of profits but they end up loosing their money, unless there is some market mechanism or some regulator we will keep seeing people being scammed.

Oh really, kinda coincidence went i see this xD.

The only ICO i invested 150$ in this year is miracle tele project simply because on confused how good the project is ,very real with great idea ,better than bubbletone project ,I will only keep invest in any project if its worth it

The scam assumption about miracle tele : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/miracle-tele-scam-5178853 you already in the scam project dude xD.

Come one, not everyone can be learning faster than other people. Every person has their own capacity learning something news, could be fast also could be slowed. You can't expect everyone can faster learning like other people who already know the crypto itself. Learning not just reading, also they can get from the experience went everyone falling the scam and he already realized he falling to the scam. He can be learning from thats, and more be carefully at the future remember the best learning you can get is from your experience.
its also part of his experience so its not bad to experience this things since you will learn for every failure you made.
Miracle tele is an ICO that promise a good potential earning every month they believe that it can be true.
since this project has a lot of supporters and have more community if you check thier channel when they are running thier ICO you will see how good those team member response for every questions.

Most of us also experience invest in ICO its the same to what happen to him.

Everyone knows very well about the type of the ponzi scheme and it looks like this method is not effective again to be used by scammers. People are very well educated these days. What we should do to learn more about what kind of scheme that will be used by the scammer again in the future. People must always avoid dealing with suspicious project or platform.

You know even the most advanced individual can be swindled at some point. What should be talked about more is the act of self discipline not to follow any project or trend that pops up. Learning is important because it helps to filter what we know but learning the right thing is the most important. You can be learning but the wrong things which ain't useful to your improvement. In learning, acquire the right knowledge.

The whole secret to avoid being involved in ponzi is to totally avoid it. You don't eat with devil at all or you use a long spoon. I rather stay away than using a long spoon because there is no guarantee that it might not break.

Never stop learning, this is so simple to say yet its hard to follow this one. Sometimes the best lesson are come from a failure so I think this is normal now to a newbie and I’m sure they will learn easily if they got scam. Knowing the best project is a must, and of course if you’re on a shit project better not to expect too much from that.
Let yourself learn the lesson from your experiences and mistakes because it's the best instrument that guide you as you choose to continue your journey. It will make a person think the things that they need to examine before investing into a project. It's difficult to recover and start again after you get victimized, but it's never too late to apply your knowledge. People should be aware that scammers will tempt them with money so they shouldn't let their greed to influence their perspective on finding a good project.

Learning could make a difference if the one applying it. Most of the problem occured on many newbies. Ponzi scheme is a good example of a typical scam. How many got by the bitconnect scam? I know everyone here is familiar with that, and we cant forget the scheme they plot connecting cryptocurrency on their objective.

What make me relief is that most token free giveaway are now easily be distinguished from fake and legit. Now, bounty campaign on this section is dying, but it will never be extinguished.

The fact is that knowledge can never be too much.  You get to know more about what you seek knowledge on.  This is not also different in term of crypto.  Adequate studying of anything you want to dabble into would definitely save you a lot of stress and regrets.

Most people get scammed out of greed and you know it is basic human nature and even the experienced members also fall prey to scams just because of greed, even if someone has complete knowledge about how these scammers deal and also keep alerting others about potential scams even such person can be scammed that is why these clever scammers are also called as con artists.

Let us just say the best and perfect way to learn, is to unlearn and relearn always.

How do you relearn ? You relearn by taking the negatives from a scenario and ensures it never happens again.
You also relearn when you put the positives and negatives of a circumstance to a proper use on next attempt.

That way, you excel either in bounty hunting, trading, or token investment.
