One of my favorite Bitcoin books to read is “Mastering Bitcoin” by Andreas Antonopoulos. The author has a good reputation in the Bitcoin community and his ability to breakdown complex concepts into simple layman terms makes his work a staple in every newbie’s journey in the crypto space.

Antonopoulos has some books and Mastering Bitcoin is one of his book. It is available for reading, free access on Github too.

your title doesn't connect with what you said, it's better to learn how to write properly then you can create a thread to educate other people. because your title sounds like you are warning people to get to know bitcoin, even though what you are saying is more about correct education in bitcoin investment.

and what's more, any investment definitely has risks and you don't need to emphasize that investing in bitcoin is risky because if you don't sell at a loss then you won't lose your money. and diversification is also not really needed for people who don't have much investment. they can do dca to start with and then they can consistently do it until their goal is achieved.

- Educating yourself on Bitcoin and its risks
- Setting clear investment goals and strategies

We should enlighten ourselves with bitcoin and cryptocurrency because coming out alive comes with sacrifices and consistent learnings. Bitcoin in the picture, we ought to be very strategic with the system because slight mistakes will lead to losses. These strategies will definitely go a long way for investors and I'm hoping to set measures for excellent results.

Well it's essential to be aware of these warnings and take a necessary precautions, Such as:

- Educating yourself on Bitcoin and its risks
- Setting clear investment goals and strategies
- Using reputable and secure exchanges, wallets, and services
- Diversifying your investments
- Staying up-to-date with market trends and regulatory changes

What the Bitcoin Investment deserves is knowledge and once you have educated your about the Bitcoin I think you're going to aware of all the risks that are involved in Bitcoin, and One thing about the Bitcoin is that once you've go through the all the skills of Bitcoin every thing will become easier, nothing you can find difficult again.

Quote

And remember , investing in Bitcoin is risky and could lose some or all of your investment. Always do your research, set clear goals, and never invest more than you can afford to lose.

I disagree with this your statement there's know any way a person can definitely lose all his Bitcoin investment, accept the person didn't educate is well about the Bitcoin investment. Because their some people's that they only have a knowledge about the Bitcoin investment, but there lack of experience they don't know how to avoid to the risks that are involved.

Bro I really don't think it is 100% right asking someone to be educated in Bitcoin and it's risk. I think that your statement is right but should be recommended to investment. Yes an investor must stay updated always investment has a lot of risk to be aware of more than Bitcoin itself I think you can only be at risk in Bitcoin if you are always exposing your account but in investment you can't point at all the mistakes and risk and sometimes it happens that it must happen to you before you know how to handle the situation.

Saying Bitcoin can make you lose all your investment is not true, you can only lose your investment in Bitcoin when you don't have the knowledge I mean when you dive into it cause others are also doing it.

Some of your points are good while some of them are off point especially when talking about Bitcoin itself and not altcoins.

Using exchange for your Bitcoin investment is no advisable because Bitcoin is decentralized currency while exchanges are centralized market where you can buy your Bitcoin if you couldn’t use p2p, exchanges have their wallets but leaving your Bitcoin under their custody is risky it is better you save your Bitcoin in your personal wallet after buying from exchanges.

If you want to trade, then you can talk of reputable exchanges, it if you are to invest in Bitcoin, you should avoid leaving your assets on exchanges.

All that you have mentioned is quite essential for us take measures so that we don't finally lose our due to little mistakes that could have been avoided. It is very important for us to know what we need to do and what we don't need to do. The cryptocurrency market is red now and we need to take a good approach for us to keep making money from the market. I have noticed that there are people that don't follow the rules that is why they used to end up losing money or get scammed because they feel that they have known it all. Crypto is not for those that are not ready to learn and adjust their wallet security.

- Diversifying your investments

Newbies, stick to only Bitcoin. Limit your investments in altcoins to a minimum as much as possible. Spreading your investments amongst various altcoins will not increase your chances of making profit rather it can prove counterproductive and you may lose everything.

Op you wrote well, except the part where you said diversifying your investment. This is not a basic idea for newbies to set up a good Bitcoin investment. Without having an intermediate knowledge about crypto, it's impossible to diversify without running at huge loss. The best advice for a newbie is to focus on Bitcoin investment and learn wholly from it, so at the right time he can go into diversification of his investment if he wants to.

Well, these are good practices for ANY investment, not exactly groundbreaking stuff for Bitcoin.

We all know the whole "invest wisely" spiel. The real question is, what makes Bitcoin so risky compared to other investments?

Well, that's the key and that is to DYOR. Many new comers invest in Bitcoin without knowing any of those factors that you've mentioned. It might be funny but you will hear investors that they've bought Bitcoin just because someone told them to do so. The advantage is on them because they've bought but the emotion is there and we'll never know how long they're going to endure severe bloody markets. Compared to someone who has done his homework, when the painful times of the market comes, they won't be easily moved. Anyway, investing in Bitcoin is the same as other investments that has risk that we also need to absorb.

Your thread topic and how you began this thread made me be an expectant that you'd make mention of harmful terms on bitcoin and how we could take note of them and be cautious of them. You ruined it all. Maybe you should think a better way to classify those mentioned as they may be necessary in other diverts in bitcoin.

What kind of harmful terms? I concur on the aspect that OP's post is shabby and only contains redundant information that everyone (or most users) already know, but what "harmful terms" were you expecting to read. What you should or shouldn't do in the network and how to protect your stash is quite easy to learn in this forum and quite a lot of threads/topics have been previously made about it.

Here we go again with a narrative that seems to paint Bitcoin as though it's the same as shitcoin or a Ponzi scheme. Why then do you call it investment when you're putting an amount you're hoping to lose? Isn't the concept of investing more about putting your funds into something you're at least 70% certain of its future outcome and that's why you can invest big in it?

Investing in Bitcoin indeed has its own risk just like every other investment option but the extent of the risk isn't too much that you should be too focused on investing an amount you can afford to lose. Except you're investing for the short term that's the only time when you will be bothered that at the time you might likely need your money back that it could be bearish and selling at that price could place you in loss. If you're a long-term investor which is what is expected of most investors, the thought of investing an amount you can afford to lose should be far from you.

"Diversifying" is really overrated when it comes to investment, as long as you understand and know what you invest will not make you regret, you can go all in. I, myself choose to all in Bitcoin, I never regret what I did.

I ever invest $100 in stock since 2019, now my investment worth $1.

I think we are on same boat here, i think the word diversification is not used well in crypto investment. To me diversification is when the two assets are not more like pegged together which is not the case with cryptocurrencies or rather let me say Altcoins. If you have an investment in bitcoin and wants to diversify then it should be on other assets not related to bitcoin or cryptocurrency again.

You see people buying Altcoins as diversification to bitcoin whereas the market trend of all the Altcoins follow the that of bitcoin, should we say it collapses today I don’t think any of the Altcoins will also survive it. The only thing one is doing when we buy other Altcoins is trying to see maybe we can maximize profit which has its high risk. You can only diversify in different Altcoins themselves but Altcoins are not diversification assets to bitcoin

Well that information you listed is good indicators to look after before they invest with bitcoin. Since aside for getting hyped for promising profits to get people must also know each risk that they could possibly encounter. And at least those people now will have something to follow then try to get more information about it.

Bitcoin is really a risky investment since aside from scamming, there is a phising attempts and lose from market volatility they could experience. By acknowledging the risk and try to learn on how to avoid it will result into something great for them. Since they will never get fool if someone attempts to scam them or confuse them on situation which result them to lose then convert those information to positive then gain a profit from it.

You could diversify and still not get the goal you want, diversification is not always the answer to increased profit, when you are very focused on diversification, you could make wrong investment choices in a bid to diversify.

It is only an inexperienced person that would be a victim of diversification. One of the ancient philosophers said, "man know yourself". It includes knowing your strengths and weaknesses. Before embarking on the journey of diversification, it means, sitting down, counting the cost, doing your research, having plan A, B, C... I believe that those who do not achieve their goal of diversification are those who "didn't know themselves". It is possible that they diversified too early and some didn't even need to diversify at all. Anyways, I hope those who noticed their diversification mistakes are humble enough to go back and focus on one investments until they feel ready enough to explore other arears.

The only way you can lose in Bitcoin is you're using fake or scam wallets, exchanges or services, but if you keep invest in Bitcoin, you're in profit now

Being phished by fake wallets, fake exchange applications, fake exchange websites, can cause loss of bitcoin. It's phishing scam.

There is another way to lose bitcoin, is through trading, buy high, sell low; FOMO with purchase and panic with sell, this way, people who consider themselves as traders will lose their bitcoin gradually with time. With them, they lose bitcoin by their trading activities, not by scammers.

21 ways to lose your bitcoin. Trading is one of 21 ways and it is mentioned at the first bullet point.

The idea that one has to accept risk in doing business only with crypto platform is wrong but as far as I understand about business, in all types of business the trader has to accept risk of money. Every investor should consider the pros and cons before investing. Investing will only result in profit and investing will only result in loss and cannot be invested with this type of thinking. How much we need to understand about the market to invest or how much risk of money should we take before investing, but we need to know in advance and then buy Bitcoin. I won't say that investing in bitcoin is risk free and money is absolutely safe to invest here but comparing to other coins bitcoin is a perfect coin to invest. The amount of risk in this coin is very low. I said as much as I can from my point of view that the investor knows more about buying bitcoins because the money risk is taken by the investor.
