How can anyone invest in something without knowing anything about it first? that's ridiculous in my opinion. For me now it would be better to invest and hold Bitcoin 2 years later than to not know everything in advance.
The 2 articles above don't specifically discuss Bitcoin but crypto in general, in the first article it was found that more than 1 in 3 investors in crypto don't know about crypto then the second is about the story of an amateur who was only tempted by the profits but didn't know anything that resulted in her investment in crypto is destroyed.
The moral message that can be taken from those two articles is that as an amateur you should have knowledge first before actually holding whether it is Bitcoin or other coins or tokens.
