Why?! What is better than learning new things, met new people and be in touch with the new tech everyday... and on top of it ot make some money in the process too.
I don't think there's anything better if we already want to learn new things and new technology, just to deal with new people we have to be more careful, because most of the deception happens through too much trust in new people.
Since we are in crypto, expect that there are scammers and in reality, those who are smart makes money in crypto.
They are risk takers, and they deserve to get a high reward too, and while some makes money, it's normal that some will also lose money, but as investors, our main purpose is to make money so let's make sure that we are at the right side and we can do that with proper knowledge and skills.
Scammers are not only in this industry rather they are in every market for investment whether it is real estate, gold and so on. But yes digital scamming is hard to trace and this gives leverage to scammers. I am of view that investors can avoid scamming by doing research about project before making an investment. The issue is that people dont like doing hard work, they simply need big results in the form of money which eventually gets them scammed.
