Topic: Learning resources for a Newbie - page 3. (Read 3571 times)

I will keep updating the post with the resources I find in the internet and the ones you guys post.
If beginners find more, you should also share them and make this a little wiki  

This is a great help. Extra efforts are needed though in reading and understanding. Another effort should also be devoted to Google for some terms, ideas, and explanations that remain confusing and hazy. But I wonder why there are so few who post here?

This is very helpful for me since I am new in this world. Thank you guys

Thanks a lot guys! I will actually put all the useful info in the first post so it becomes a useful resource itself 

there's a lot of members that are very helpful and share knowledge about bitcoins.
nevertheless, always remember to read and self study tho.

That site is a news site for cryptocurrency even though it might give some source of knowledge, It is still useless once newbie read this without a proper basic orientation about bitcoin. Bitcoin wiki is the best guide for a newbie for starting up on bitcoin. 

Thanks for its reference material,
will be a learning material for my newbie

Didn't know about the Bitcoin Book. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you so much!!!!! Great resources! 

Andreas Antonopoulos' Bitcoin book:

You can buy it or read for free. I don't know if there's an English PDF format of it, but it can be read here at least: https://github.com/bitcoinbook/bitcoinbook/blob/develop/ch01.asciidoc

Translations in PDF format: https://www.bitcoinbook.info/translations-of-mastering-bitcoin/

In addition to this, Bitcoin Wiki is a great source of basic and deep knowledge: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Main_Page

you have to read a lot, any thing you get in your hand read it it's a huge world getting bigger and bigger every day. first learn the basics of economy, technology and get an idea how bitcoin works and always ask about what you dont understand.

resources are nice and will take time to review. thanks for sharing.

Thank you guys, I really appreciate it. I hope I can come back in 6 months and say "Thank you guys, I've been making profits thanks to your resources"
I'm new to all this, so literally EVERYTHING is useful
More recommendations very welcome!! 

Hi! welcome to the crypto world. Anyway, I know a site that has a good size of compilation of guides.

Link: http://www.coindesk.com/information/

from that site you can learn about general bitcoin knowledge (how transactions work, mining, legalities, the blockchain, all those stuff). I suggest you go through all those stuff first before going into trading/markets. The basics are VERY necessary.

Also, if you like watching instead, look up crypt0 on youtube, link: https://www.youtube.com/user/obham001 ; videos might be long, yes, but they have very good insight. Easily one of the best crypto youtubers in my opinion.

By reading your posts, I think what you are looking for is book about stock analysis*. If you are using Bitcoin/altcoins as just stocks, I recommend you to first study about stock marketing and then invest. Even understanding basics maybe time consuming, but if stock marketing is worth for you, then time spent will be worth too! Don't go for immediate gains just to loose everything later. Once you have studied stock marketing, next thing is to know which cryptocurrency should you invest. Altcoins value can be calculated by seeing who's behind it and what it offers. Compare stocks/altcoins to a product and when you buy a product, you will consider
  • what is it?
  • why buy it?
  • what does it offer?
  • what makes it better than its contemporaries?
  • how and where to buy it?
  • who's behind it?
  • easy and cheap way to buy it.

Take your time and decide which to invest *carefully*. TBH, I am not an expert in stock marketing. So I can only answer some basic questions.

ORGINAL POST:
-----------------------------

Hi all!
I'm new in this crypto-world and still get lost in so many concepts, words, charts, coins...
I´d like to ask you:
  -  Is there any website / book / online resource that I can study to learn?  

I'd like to be able to analyze the market and be able to make informed decisions about new investments.
At the moment I'm already using youtube, bitcointalk, google and telegram to learn, but more specific resources would be VERY USEFUL!
Thanks a million in advance, guys  
I just want to be part of the community while we all make nice profits
