As it stands now,the best for any newbie is appropriate due diligence.To jump into cryptos without appropriate research is something newbies should avoid.BCH has created a lot of confusion but some blame must be laid on the newbies too.

What you say is true. As much as it hurts to say it but newbies are going to have these teething problems because of Bitcoin Cash confusion on the bitcoin.com website. Once upon a time many people ended up with "zombie" wallets because they mined bitcoins and well, lost the hard drives, reformatted them or lost their encryption passwords.

Learning process is one thing but navigating around the Bitcoin Cash farce claiming it is the real Bitcoin, well that is pathetic propoganda which does not help newbies.

Unfortunately since bitcoin is a decentralised currency,no action could be taken against bitcoin.com.Instead we should create awareness among the bitcoin community so that newbies would not get scammed.

Bitcoin was never easy concept to grasp - if you wanted to learn a bit more than average Joe then it always required a certain amount of time and effort.
With Bitcoin cash and other forks of bitcoin we simply reached the next level of confusion - but do we really can do something about it?
The only way for people to grasp the situation is to read and learn, google for Bitcoin-related terms and concepts, visit forums, and build up their own opinion.

I agree, proper research will reduce the number of transactions leading to lost coins and wallet/chain confusions. Bitcoin cash on their website are hardly helping the situation by the confusion they are creating.

well the website is trying to lure newbies to invest in shitcoin bitcoin cash by not putting the original abbreviation of bitcoin the website put BCH instead of BTC (very cheap tactic) since the website owner is bitcoin cash supporter. i suggest that to all newbies research very carefully read the bitcoin wiki and visit the one and only bitcoin's website which is bitcoin.org

For that the newbies like me who are interested in this ecosystem are here, reading publications and comments that help us to avoid and learn from mistakes that at some time previous newbies committed and clear up doubts that arise every time we dive deeper and deeper into this world

So, some newbies go to bitcoin.com and see BTC and BCH plastered all over the website.

In some places on the bitcoin.com website the words "Bitcoin" and letters "BCH" are conflated, in other places they are not. In some places mentions specific to "Bitcoin" are being made and in other places "Bitcoin" and "BCH" are mentioned as one and the same. In other places "Bitcoin" and "BTC" are used.

Stands to reason newbies wanting to learn about Bitcoin will go to bitcoin.org or bitcoin.com and those wanting to learn about Bitcoin Cash will go to bitcoincash.org

How are newbies supposed to navigate the disaster created by Bitcoin Cash team?
