Lack of knowledge is the reason why crypto enthusiasts keep losing their crypto-asset or getting hacked. And sometimes greediness is also a reason why people get hacked, joining airdrop or the recent hacks just like a HIYP that promised you to have a double profit after a week or a month. But the fact, you are already prone to scams.
I suggest those newbies who want to own their own bitcoin is also to study how to store bitcoin, how to keep safe bitcoin and you will able to continue holding until you will get profit.
