So when you see a newbie ask for advice on how to start up on their journey in Bitcoin trading, don't try to discourage them, rather give them the advice on how they can start, and also let them be aware of the risks and how to avoid it. If we must grow the community, then we have to learn to encourage everyone to get along, and not try to discourage them.
Well that's how forums work, you ask something and people answer you, based on what they think is right. And it is a fact that vast majorify of people would have more bitcoin if they just hold what they have, instead of trying to increase it by trading. To be a successful trader you need years of practice and a lot of money spent and that's not something that an average trader is willing to do. Instead, they try trading for few months, lose money and probably never come back so why even start at the first place?
Bitcoin is for everyone, and no one should be left behind.
What trading has to do with it?
