Five Don’ts in Crypto (Newbie Guide)

If you’re a noob to crypto, I’m sure you have so much on information to overload your plate. The one beautiful thing about crypto is how much attributes it has to life. If you’re patient and willing, you could learn enough to make a killing at some time in your later years. If not, you could be rekt of what little you have.

I’ll enumerate five things every noob should avoid when venturing Crypto. These are basic principles you might want to start with…

Do not START with crypto

If you have decided that you want to go into crypto, you must understand that crypto is a gamble. In other words, don’t put all your eggs into one basket expecting to make millions the next day. That’s not how crypto works.

I’d say, have something you’re doing. Only release to crypto what you can afford to lose, if not, don’t invest at all. Platforms like Hive are good for raising starting capital. You can start by growing something here and then looking to expand outside.

Hive is the best place for every noob. You’re taken at a slow and easier pace. If you’re genuinely interested, you can get the help you need to get going through community.

Do NOT put money somewhere until you’ve researched it

Do your own research. Can I say it enough? I know many of the noobs are mostly led by their emotions (FOMO) than they are by their heads. While it may seem like a good deal, and what is trending at the moment, you want to settle down and take apart the pieces.

You should be interested in what’s happening behind the coin rather than what you see or what you’ve been told. Simple questions like ‘who are the founders and what are their track records’ can save you from a lot of heart ache.

Do not believe the HYPE

What I was saying in the point above. You want to DYOR and not take what you’re given at face value. Hype is as dangerous as its influence.

I can pay a couple of influencers to shill my shitcoin just to attract the right people and then send them under. I believe we remember what happened with the Squid coin? Many people bought into the hype. No idea where the source was from, who they are and it was just easy for these guys to up and run away with huge amounts of money.

You might want to bear in mind that people (influencers) shilling stuff to you already got paid. So if it tanks, they don’t have a problem.

Do not get involved in TOO MANY projects

I see this happen even on Hive. Noobs are so anxious to get caught up and make that money they see we have in our wallets. They want to get with everything and then become frustrated when it’s not working like it’s “supposed” to.

Crypto is not a Get-Rich-Quick-Scheme. It’s quite the opposite and getting involved in tons of things doesn’t mean you’d eventually get paid. If anything, it’s just information overload and more anxiety added to your drawer. You might want to lay off making such a mistake.

Do NOT CLICK links

How many newbies on Hive have fallen prey to phishing attacks? They are told they’d win 1000 Leo tokens and they don’t think to check its validity. That’s another point. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. You may want to double check.

I’d say, be sure of the source of that link and ask around. It’s so easy to fall prey to scammers on the other side if we are not careful enough.

I’d like to add that crypto will test you. Many things you’d experience along the way, we have and we did not die. If anything, we learned from our mistakes and made sure NOT to REPEAT them. The deeper you go, the more you learn, the better you become.

Looking at Hive from the outside, it looks like trash let just be honest there are issues. Not many people would be interested in coming to Hive to read blogs let's be honest

GET HELP STOP CRYING

WE CAN NOT HELP YOU

ARE YOU OK

Hello Marky, are you ok do you need help, are you facing mental health challenges?

It's crucial to seek help. Continual dishonesty can erode trust and your mental health. Downvotes do not have an impact on us, but our consistent sharing of accurate information is key to us.

Marky stop getting butt fucked LOL.

Farming? Show me where I am farming, I post like one post a month at this point, and all buildawhale is burned. As you say transactions don’t lie. And don't say curation rewards, I'd get those no matter what I vote on and if you expect I will be the only person on this blockchain to forfeit curation rewards, you are dumber than we know you are.

Just going to leave my response to the one out of thousand previous comments you left today.

People only tolerate you for the votes
Interesting, considering I don't vote anyone.

You vote on you're own spam comments every day @buildawhale to earn curation rewards. There are many authors on Hive whom you could support, but you choose not to you keep it to yourself don't you Marcus? You are no good Marcus.

I used to vote over 200 unique authors a day, many of which my vote was their only significant vote, and for over a year every post and every vote I would make would get downvoted for $50 because someone was sad I stopped the abuse they were voting on. I lost my ability to choose what I vote on years ago. It has finally stopped, so I started the burn posts to reduce the inflation due to the wreckless DHF spending. Of course I earn curation rewards, like every single person on Hive. I will not be the only person on Hive to forfeit curation rewards, and to expect that is ridiculous. You are one to talk about spam comments, you are spamming hundreds if not thousands of comments a day.

Can't you see the problems on Hive?

LOL

It seems like THEMARKYMARK is dealing with some personal drama and mental issues, which might be causing them to spam us and others with baby pics, GIFs, and questionable content he's been doing the same for years. The fun doesn't stop there, as this seems to be a recurring theme with multiple online personas. The real question is, do we want to trust these drama-magnets with our hard-earned funds or any significant influence on Hive?

On Hive a significant issue exists with automatic upvotes consistently rewarding the same individuals day in and day out

We want to address the issue of downvoting. It has caused pain to many people, and we want to make sure it doesn't happen again reply to @jacobtothe

We hope that those who genuinely care about Hive will reconsider their actions, as continuing down this path could inadvertently harm innocent users who are unaware of these issues

No.

I downvote spammers, you are a spammer, you get no monies. It’s very simple.

In the meantime go get some help. You obviously have some issues going on.

Many bots on Hive aim to combat spam, scams, and other inappropriate content. However, these bots inadvertently downvote legitimate content. It's important to note that the individuals operating these bots are scammers and abusers themselves, which undermines the effectiveness of this system LOL.
