In addition to the OP's plagiarism, one could offer him a link to the Virus Total service that checked his PDF file. I have read so many times that it is not recommended to open files of this type. Therefore, even if I wanted to teach my grandmother the basics of cryptocurrency, I would not risk opening this file.

Yeah i also don't want to open these files but you know we can scan for them first of all and then after we have done it properly we can open these files to have a look at it.But as you said about virus there are recently cases of pdf phising scams that can drain your wallets like Metamask through the browser extension and when you click on them they wi redirect you to some fake websites injecting malware in your device.So it's good to stay away from it.

So is twitter account @JustTechGuy mentioned in this pdf document actually you or not?
It could be for him as the account has been setup only few weeks back in March 2022 and have the same post mentioned in the @OP :

https://twitter.com/JustTechGuy/status/1522555294991142912?t=ZIiEFSu1ILDLvSe56HppKQ&s=19

The last tweet is also 5 days back only with normal post and we know it's easy to setup Twitter account not a hard one.


I would focus on Bitcoin first, instead of adding altcoins in mix that will just confuse grandmas even more, and take some time to make updates and simplify it as much as possible.
Right because most of the altcoins are shitcoins trying to copy bitcoin but have failed miserably with different mechanisms like POS,POH and others but true decentralisation is with only bitcoin that has made this revolutionary step in financial market so giving them exposure to the right coin is the thing we can do.

I accept your hate

At the end it doesn't matter, I'm not selling it. It's just a simple PDF that I wrote, nothing more, nothing less. I don't expect anything from it, I don't plan to sell it, I'm not even crypto enthusiast or fan. I just wrote that while educating myself
Citing out that you have copied the article from someone else is not hate at all but only showing the reality to the readers that you are not the rightful publisher of the article and appraisal should be given to him not you.Moreover you are on the forum and it's highly against the rules to plagiarise without the source what you have done.

Suppose you have made some projects as you are devloper from from your Twitter profile but some company is using it without paying you or mentioning in the credits and you complain about it will it be hate of you towards company?
