As a newbie in bitcoin investment, what you need is only a basic knowledge of what you have decided to go into which include, choosing a wallet, knowing how to buy, having a discretionary income and aiming at long-term (initial 4 to 10 years). This would allow you kick off your bitcoin investment while also learning the details as you progress. Bitcoin is a complicated asset which you cannot study enough due to its characteristics, ranging from it's limited supply to its Volatility. This would allow you not to waste more time waiting while opportunities pass by.
Sometimes newbies are confused about questions like; if I don't learn everything about bitcoin investment, how will I be sure that I am not going to loose all my money? In that case I think the necessary initial confidence is to come from the person who is about introducing them. I would like to chip in something here, when introducing bitcoin investment to someone who's a novice or have had some Ponzi schemes scam experience, it is important to not that at first he may not want to admit that bitcoin is not a Ponzi scheme. So it's advisable to remind him that you gain nothing for introducing him neither would you loose anything for not introducing him. I have tried this format and I can tell you that it saved me some energy and delivered the information faster.
Sometimes people believe that you are only introducing them because of what you stand to gain which is not true.I frequently tell people that I don't give any shits if they buy bitcoin or not, yet I am letting them know for their own good, and they can choose to look further into bitcoin and/or to get started or they can just wait until later (or not at all). People tend to be reluctant, even when given them sufficient information and even being somewhat available for them to ask questions.. yet at the same time, they have to do the work, and I am not going to sit down for several hours with anyone because there is a lot of necessity for self-directed investigations into the bitcoin matter and even into just figuring out how to get started.
Anyone who invested in Bitcoin is for their good and themselves, you can’t force yourself or do something good just to make sure people believe in Bitcoin, not everything will be learned before deciding to invest in Bitcoin, when they believe in Bitcoin they will decide if they will invest or not, people are very difficult to understand and no matter how much you try to explain something to them there will still be people who don’t believe you, it looks like wasting of time sometimes when you are about to you want to introduce something very valuable to people because they see it as someone wants to use the opportunity to gain something from them. I have said it many times before that it will be very difficult for me to introduce someone to Bitcoin because those who don’t know about it always think negatively about it. There are many ways to learn Bitcoin.
I agree with you because sometimes one will be trying to prove or make someone to invest Bitcoin and make a very big mistake in their own investment, so it is pointless trying to prove anything to anyone and everybody must not be a Bitcoin investor because it is a thing of choice or interest. It is not actually all the people that don't know Bitcoin think negative about it, some have heard about it somehow and some of them are eager to learn and know more about it while some don't give a shit about it and so if you see someone who is willing or show some level of enthusiasm in Bitcoin, please teach the person and don't use some people mindset or way of thinking to judge others.
Bitcoin investment is for everyone and everyone can invest in Bitcoin, but the main thing is that not everyone can benefit from Bitcoin investment, because not everyone can hold Bitcoin correctly and effectively. Bitcoin investment is a long-term journey, where in order to achieve big and significant success, you must hold it for the long term, and it is important to prepare your mentality accordingly to hold it for the long term.
But can everyone hold it for the long term? And at this stage, many investors face failure, because firstly, their patience is low and secondly, they cannot hold their mentality during volatility, they panic and make wrong decisions, and because of this, they do not benefit from Bitcoin investment but face more losses.
And at this stage, a real long-term investor and a short-term trader are different. Where a long-term investor continues his investment in any situation, and he achieves success in the long term. And a short-term investor panics and sells his holdings during times of uncertainty, and he faces losses and failure.
