That's right. Without this forum, my perspective on Bitcoin would've been like an ordinary person on the street. I can say that my biggest advantage is to discover this place in the earliest period. When I look at the people around me, their perspective on Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is very different than users of this forum.
There are many people who see Bitcoin only as a get-rich quick scheme or think like only gambling or the stock market. Not many people look at the technological side of things. If they had researched this, they would've adjusted their investment preferences according to that.
This is very true. I have not been on the forum for up to a year and even a blind person can spot the difference between me before this forum and now.
I have always known about Bitcoin, it was not an alien concept to me, but my perception of Bitcoin is so different than what it used to be before I joined this forum.
To be honest, I understand how lucky I am to have found this forum. I know I still have a huge way to go to get to where I want to be but looking back at how much this forum has improved me I have to count myself lucky.
I have a friend that has been a crypto trader long before I owned Bitcoin, today thanks to this forum it's as if I was in the industry before him. One good thing about this forum is that it helps me research more.
