I would agree to this by a hundred percent. We know it, most newbies tend to think that bitcoin investment is a rich-quick-scheme even though it is not. My hunch is that Bitcoin, for them, are hyped. So they tend to think more positive with this investment.
it's because there are quite a number of videos or marketing posts or campaigns from local exchange platforms in a given country. they campaign crypto investment or trading. even made snippets regarding some of the traders who have had success with crypto trading. indirectly it creates a perception in beginners that crypto trading and investment can be an alternative to get rich quickly in a short time.
many beginners don't get proper education for crypto assets and trading. what they are more interested in is short trades with quick profits they can feel.
That's hella true, Awaklara and this is why I never tend to believe almost all of the success story with crypto trading. There's a lot more than what meets the eye in those stories like nobody would want to share their struggles with those success story. There's just no such thing as quick earnings here in crypto.
What people may call it "short term" might be "long term" for other people. Screw those influencers that just gives the false hope for beginners. They just can't admit that their success was contributed by plenty of luck and some variables that people will never get.
