an average newbie is just interested in waht will fetch him quick money with little stress and not what will continue to fetch him money not just at the present but also in the future. that is why they prefer altcoin to bitcoin because from what they know, altcoin can easily yield them fast returns but they fail to understand that same altcoin can also lead them to masssive lossbecause of the short term potential that is associated with it.

even on the forum, knowledge is what keeps a newbie and helps him stay longer than just being at the entry level of the forum. there is no substitute for getting the right knowledge and like the proverb says, teach me how to fish, do not give me the fish, it is when newbies get the right knowledge about bitcoin that they can stay relevant in the ecosystem for long while earning and growing themselves through it.
