- Learn the basics
You don’t need to become a developer, but it helps to know:
What is a wallet?
What’s the blockchain actually doing?
What is mempool?
Trust me it makes everything less intimidating
https://mempool.space/
This is the first thing any beginner should start with, which is the basics that he should be familiar with and the common terms that he will read a lot in this field. Indeed, this will make him more open-minded and more flexible in understanding.

- Ignore any Email related to update your Wallet
 most of people lost their bitcoin by clicking malware links or phishing

We should be cautious with emails and never click on any links or download any attachments without conducting the necessary research and verification. No open source wallet will require you to update it by sending you a message, as most of them do not have customer support. Also, you should never enter your secret phrases into any of these email-linked pages.

- Be careful from Drainers
there are website that ask you to connect your wallet to get an Airdrop (free coins of an project) 99% them are scam
once u connect your wallet your Coins will be gone ( even if you have 0$  but you add balance to that wallet after few months they will be gone )
This is absolutely true. Therefore, if someone is interested in airdrops, they should use a new alternative wallet instead of their primary wallet. They should always make sure to interact only with the original and official links. Once a wallet is connected and a transaction is signed, it may be drained by scammers, and many people have lost their funds through this type of scam.
