The thing I've noticed most about new entrants into the crypto sphere is this...

They hope that they're going to earn some Bitcoin and get rich.

The reality is that they spend it on shitcoins and go broke.

I say this tongue in cheek, but seriously, I can't tell you how many friends I have that I've been trying to get into Bitcoin since it was $2. They'll literally buy any $0.02 shitcoin they can find hoping that by some miracle it goes up to being worth thousands, market cap be damned... I think part of it is education and the other part is thinking that getting rich in crypto is easy. It isn't. Most of the time it involves a lot of hard work, or a lot of luck. If you're going the luck route, know there's an extremely high chance you are not going to make it.

I can understand your sentiments here but by now, those friends of yours should already know how to spot a crappy coins.
Once these newbies got screwed or something, they will learn their lesson well.
For those who will not give up, they will educate themselves. But for don't, and get out fast, usually they are the ones spreading misinformation.
They are only basing from their experience and usually they are emotionally ruined by their past experience.
