Cyber security is advanced. People who use Bitcoin don't need that advanced knowledge to hold Bitcoin, the basics of security and privacy are enough, but sadly a lot of people don't even adhere to the basics, so when you don't follow the basics how then can you follow the advanced and more complex?
Many people don't even know the basics of privacy and security so they end up being scammed. I think OP is trying to draw the attention of members to place more importance on protecting their assets. Common sense is not always common because many people neglect basic knowledge.

You're a good fellow sir
And thanks for seeing things from same perspective  I'm seeing them because yes it is of no doubt that getting a cyber-security course is good but doing so considering the cost of the course  just fir the sake of holding  bitcoin  isn't worth it and that's bad.

The lessons are very clear, don't hold on exchanges,  don't be too greedy and don't click on every random links.
I also share your thoughts that it is not necessary to pay and enroll in a course in cybersecurity because you can learn most of the ways of securing your assets. But many free online courses on cybersecurity can be impactful. You might also think that you are well informed about security but you should also know that these hackers and scammers are also finding new ways of exploiting loopholes in the security systems. So there is a need to upgrade your knowledge periodically on cybersecurity. I also think that there is a need to learn and relearn to hold Bitcoin because some people worked very hard for years to accumulate their coins.
