Please stop your whining here if your friend dont know nothing about blockchain and crypto then teach him so he can be independent
Don't let them invest in what they don't know about
how can you invest into somthing if you have no clue about what are you investing in at first place or is just about 21st century beg??
This is the main reason why people especially newbies are getting nowhere but losing money in cryptocurrency.
That is true, you should never invest to anything with out your own knowledge (even no in cryptocurrency but investment)
Go get more people and friend but never ask them to invest but let them learn first.
I was once become this type of person too, investing without knowing everything at all, as I don't know at that time how to check legit, so I invested $10 only, and there's so many hype in the community, so I added again to $60 thinking they are all real that even my friends invested on it, so , although I am a noob, I was very expecting that this a great one, then turned out to be a scam after few months. Anyway, this has been a morale lesson for me and to my friend.
