Good to be here. Read and observed the forum since I joined and must say I like how detailed the discussions here are compared to social media platforms. As a beginner I noticed some topics are mentioned a lot like wallets, security nd scams but I still feel there are always new perspectives. For instance my first impression of bitcoin is that it is more about personal responsibility than anything else. If you loose your keys, you loose your coins and that feels different from banks. For those who have been in the game longer, what was your first impression when you realized how it actually works?
Agreed with you. Note your keys, not your crypto. Is that your first impression? Because if it’s me, when I first heard about Bitcoin, my first impression was how it works: you, as the owner of the Bitcoin, will be the one who is in charge of your money, no third party, and no one will know what you sent out or you send in, and that is freedom, I think. Freedom was also another thing that made me believe in Bitcoin and made me get into it.
