I just finished a lesson on coursera that I think could benefit some beginners here. One of the key point was that before deciding to invest on cryptocurrency, it’s important to seek professional investment advice and take time to understand how the market works for the fact that crypto is volatile and considering the fact that cryptocurrency can be confusing from the early time.

Good one Buddy. It's also good that you've identified Coursera as one of your foundational learning platforms. What I can tell you is that in Coursera you are going to learn more about the fundamentals and the technical terms and understanding some basic setups when it comes to investments or trading of bitcoin but most of the information you will be filled with by Coursera, consider them as your first learning rope but don't get excited yet because just learning from Coursera alone doesn't make you a trader nor investor, it only gives you the fundamental knowledge guide on the basics. Now if you are ready to learn how to invest trade or grow your portfolio, you will need to go into the practical aspect of it and thank God you're here now. You can learn from the powerful discussions led here and ask questions to get hands-on responses like you will do if you're a programmer with stackoverflow.
