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.

That's a warning isn't it limiting beginners from getting involved in trading, you have to separate advice from limiting beginners' interest? They try to say something that happened according to reality that beginners are not advised to get involved in trading when they have not mastered technical or other basic things. There is nothing wrong with that reminder and for me reminding each other is an effort to maintain a level of sanity because we cannot live alone without listening to the advice of other people who are more experienced.

No one is born as a professional trader and that is why reminding each other is an effort to look after each other. Make criticism an effort for us to become more developed and in this online forum we must have thicker skin to respond to every person's criticism. If a person is not ready to accept criticism then this place is not suitable for him and I don't think there is anything wrong with such criticism.

Really now? We drag beginners back with "well-intentioned" advice every time they start Bitcoin? We know its risky and fickle. Isnt that the point of trading? If a newbie shouldnt trade without technical knowledge, how will they learn? Learning involves experience, mistakes, and losses. Bitcoin is a passion and future for many.

But this annoying issue continues recurring. Genuine advice is sometimes misinterpreted as discouragement. As you indicated, this site may not suit those who can't take criticism. Let's distinguish criticism from overprotection. The world of Bitcoin is huge, intriguing, and occasionally scary. But lets stop treating newcomers like fragile and let them experience Bitcoin trading's roller coaster.

But then again those are just advice and our own take, the final decision is still in their hands. If they are really determine to invest or hold then they will continue to do so no matter what we say. It's not that we are treating newbies like they're fragile individuals, it's more like we're just being honest based on what we know and our experiences that answers their inquiries and questions, if they take that as a discouragement and take it to heart so much so that it pushes them to stop their Bitcoin journey then that's on them.
