I have run into several Bitcoin "newbies" over the last couple of months, that are spreading the wrong information on forums and/or in person. Their intentions is good, but the results is bad, because they did not do proper research.

Some of these people are selling themselves as experts, because they have been in the scene for a few months. I have been in the scene for years and I still know very little about EVERY aspect of this technology.

I think you should rather admit it, when you do not know something about the technology, than selling your little knowledge as facts. I will regularly tell people that I am not clued up with every aspect of this technology, but I always try to do proper research, when I encounter something that I am not 100% clued up on.

~ Ask, if you not sure.
~ Do not lie, if you are unsure.
~ Do proper research, before you educate other people.
~ Accept that you will not know it all.
~ Fact check what you already know.
~ Do not argue, if you not sure about your facts.

Let's agree that we all learn something new about this great technology almost every day, so only a small amount of us are experts.  Wink
you do not actually have to be in crypto world for too long to be considered "expert". Different people have different strategies and they differ on levels of knowledge. Even a newbie that reads a lot can beat my knowledge in crypto even if I have been here for 1 year.

I agree with you, newbies are quite dangerous dangerous when it comes to cryptocurrency and they are the tools that is been used to spread FUD. Some people ventured into bitcoin and cryptocurrency because of what they heard . Many believe that bitcoin is an avenue for easy money and they careless about doing their own research. This resulted to them losing their faults and they have no option to believe it's all scam and those still in it spreads FUD whenever the market is going down.

My exact sentiments man,I feel you. the newbies nowadays more often that not would caused more harm than good in the community. Yes we all started as a newbie, but hey the newbies now are different, most of them would not even research the facts and would tell some misinformation about Bitcoin and the crypto currency technology. They feel that they invested on it for several months, they already know it all, the ins and outs of the industry. They feel like they are the experts but when the going gets tough, they are the first to sell worse, they will even spread FUDs and be the reason why the prices will go down further.

We could call them newbie specialists and they are dangerous because they do not know about electronic money market, never study appropriately.

Yes because they are the one who have least experience in btc. They are the more hackable person.


Well I guess this is true cause if you are not aware of a certain thing and withoud further researching, I think you are getting yourself into trouble in which you might be hack or even pooled by the people who you may encounter and I guess this makes a lot of bad influence in this community in which the things that was not cause by this forum is now being induced to this forum, and it's a minus in its reputation.

I guess a person will never learned unless he will experienced failures. Based on my experienced because of my eagerness to have a good business in crypto I have encountered multiple scam sites and I have scammed until I have found this forum whom I have found the one I am looking for.

The nature of inferiority and willingness to accept criticism is the key to success in life, I am also here still feeling the lack of knowledge, and I learned a lot from my seniors. I agree with you. And there is something I want to add. It's about topic titles. Issues that are irrelevant and weak in content. I find these issues unnecessary. It's just a link sharing issue. But looking into it, it's empty. I think they're doing it to earn merit.

My goodness, this! I'm probably at 2 years+(not that much, but still) but I always feel like an idiot when listening to someone like Andreas Antonopoulos speak. When listening to someone like him I feel like a total newbie(though I probably still am 🤔). I've come to terms with it though, that there's still a lot I have to learn. We never stop learning I guess.
YAS! im totally agrree with you. We never stop to learning. I think the reson behind why many newbies can be so dangerous is because they can easily feel know everything and feeling so superior because can entering the crypto world. but in reality their knowledge is still very little, and they don't have any intention to learn more, and easily being satisfied.

If you are a newbie you can invest in bitcoin or altcoin but you have no experience as well as if you do not have much knowledge you should invest in the market less capital then increase the population to capital investment

Here there on this forum we may see the negative spreading thread every section. Actually I want moderators to trashcanned these kind of fake information sharing thread. If they want to exhibit the right information which is negative means no one will never say anything about it.
I strongly say to every newbie want to invest on cryptocurrencies. If you have all your money in your hand means also you need to invest that into bitcoin or ethreum. With in few months that money doubled equal to fiat cash.

Now there are so many new people creating new topics without knowing the truth and not researching beforehand. It's really dangerous because if the news is fake it can make all investors afraid of investing again.

Experts don't brag and share advice just for the purpose of sharing. And those who want to help, often don't have bad intentions, but they also don't have enough knowledge. Reading is the mother of all advice, I put my hopes into that. Cheesy

I think it can not be dangerous to newbie to join here in bitcoin because there are so many people that can support them to make a research about this. Actually it is easy to understand bitcoin when you focus on it.

so not necessarily all the information is true yes,
maybe I also never believe in such news because I do not know and I often read in this forum and maybe it's fake news or opinion of someone they spread in this forum.

I do have the same opinion and perspective that it can be dangerous for them. Bitcoin is not just only a simple thing that you can manage right away. You need to have a broad knowlede about it so it may lessen the risk from getting mistakes in involving with bitcoin.

I agreed with this topic some newbies are talking as if they already knew alot on this crypto world.. neither do ive been trading for year or two yet so many things i still dont know about trading i still consider myself as newbie..  But im continiosly learning each day.. 
Yes, newbie can be dangerous if they are not aware of what they are posting and since they don't know much of the Do's and Don'ts of the forum then there is a possibility that they can do against the rule, therefore to play safe a newbie in crypto must take some research and observed the proper regulation of the bitcoin talk forum to avoid such consequences.
