so my brother, knowledge is key, even in this crypto space.
Hopefully you are not fucking around with shitcoins or considering that there is some kind of value in studying them prior to making sure you understand what you are doing in regards to bitcoin... anyhow talking about "crypto" makes you sound like a distracted shitcoin who does not know how to properly talk about bitcoin or to figure out your focus, because if you feel some kind of need to talk about shitcoins while we are talking about bitcoin, then there should be some kind of a context to that rather than using dumbass-vague terms to refer to bitcoin as if it were part of some shitcoin space, and you don't even say, you just lump it in as if you are trying to sound smart by saying crypto rather than bitcoin, if you might have been wanting to talk about bitcoin.
Whenever your hear about the emphasis on knowledge, look closely and you will see a supposed expert analyst who knows the perfect shitcoin to buy and the perfect entry and exit strategy but at the end, it usually end in tears. You will never hear a long term Bitcoin invest stress this knowledge of a thing because there is practically no need for that.
I have noticed that most Bitcoin investor spend more energy learning about how to secure and preserve their assets, than worrying about entry point... with key interest in wallets, privacy and knowledge about latest innovations in Bitcoin.
