Around six months ago I decided that I was tired of kicking myself for not investing in it and just hodling.
If you hold Bitcoin you're already investing in it.
So I set out to learn everything I could about cryptocurrency, the blockchain, and altcoin trading. Everything I've learned has been self taught. Now I feel like I need some mentoring, a big brother, an instructor. What should I do next?
Basics about investing would be good. Understanding economics would help you understand how the play between supply and demand affect the price. Finally, you could do some work to learn about the money supply in the traditional sense (e.g., fractional lending, deflation of currency) and how it can be manipulated. This will help you learn why Bitcoin has such high prospects for appreciation.
This will also help you walk carefully around the numerous ICOs out there...most are smoke and mirrors.
