Bitcoin user is making bitcoin complicated for a newbie
I discover that bitcoin is becoming more and more complicated not because it is really hard to understand
but instead those who are not new in bitcoin are making it complicated. (Even Myself
)
as I think a little bit deeper I realized it and plan to change my approach to the newbie as a self-reflection.
I want to learn more how can i make bitcoin newbie friendly as simplest as possible.
Example:
If a newbie asks what is a good wallet to use?
Bitcoin User will answer the hardware wallet which is not free. Yes it is safest but not a newbie-friendly
Instead of a web wallet that is free and easy to use. Every wallet has its own flaws in order to secure your bitcoin you have to learn how to use it and make it secure.
If a newbie asks how to earn bitcoin?
Bitcoin user will say Signature campaign which is also not newbie friendly because you cant join the signature campaign now if you are a newbie.until they discover the altcoin campaign where they can join but will be disappointed sooner or later because of not getting paid and leave bitcoin and tell that it is a scam.
Instead, teach them one of the basic ways to earn bitcoin which is micro earning where they can earn small amount of bitcoin like faucets for them to test bitcoin
If a newbie asks what good thing about bitcoin? anonymity?
Bitcoin user wants to teach about one the good thing about bitcoin which is anonymity but for a newbie point of view, it will also make confusion because if im the newbie why do I need to become anonymous if im not planning to do bad things.
instead, teach them the basic about bitcoin which is a payment method where they can use online or they can do a person to person transaction
If a person just wants to use Bitcoin, then there's no need to dive into the issues of how Blockchain works and stuff like that. As for wallets, buying it when you're just getting to know Bitcoin doesn't make sense, but Electrum is a fine wallet which is free to use and quite safe. Apart from this, a newbie should be informed about scams and how to stay protected as well as common mistakes like making the fee too low or sending BTC to an LTC address or something like this. Regarding anonymity, it's important to point out that Bitcoin does not guarantee full anonymity and was never meant to guarantee it. And speaking of whether Bitcoin is good or bad, I'd say it's neutral itself, but can be used for various purposes (just like other forms of money).I discover that bitcoin is becoming more and more complicated not because it is really hard to understand
