As a member of the forum and you're not growing in knowledge of the main purpose for which the forum was created for then it's a waste of time and energy for you. The forum is not just about earnings so if your growth in the forum is focused in ranks you are basically not growing.
In otherwords, if you are lucky enough to scale through the ranks without proportional growth in knowledge of bitcoin then such growth is no good growth at all. A newbie in bitcoin knowledge but an old member by rank you just like a container without a content. So it would be nice of us if we can from time to time take a quiet moment and examine ourselves in relation to the idea behind the forum, ask ourselves necessary questions regarding our timeline with our level of knowledge to the actual purpose of the forum (bitcoin knowledge).
Is it even possible to grow here without knowledge? I know there are different sections in the forum and everyone has the one they are best good at but in one way or the other, crypto must be involved. As far as you are here and growing up, even if you don't have depth knowledge of crypto you'll at least know the basics. Earning here is another discussion and you can not achieve that without having crypto knowledge. At least you will need to have a wallet set up before you think of earning. One thing I know is that even if you are here for earning specifically, that mindset will change if you continue to explore the forum.
No area anyone can grow without proper knowledge of the basics within such field before advancing to the top. And crypto isn't anything that's too hard to learn and understand provided you're determined to , you just have to decide what area you to dive into either for technical knowledge or fundamental aspects and you'll still make some bulks from it both in and outside the forum.
