As I said, I didn't have any idea about what a blockchain was, and even less about how one works. In fact, I didn't have any idea about crypto at all and didn't actually know I was joining a crypto community. Do your own research fail.
I've been comfortably sitting on this bench for a while. Meeting people to explain, they do so on the surface.
I joined Hive via a friend and honestly, I couldn't comprehend the posts on LeoFinance but with the buzz about crypto, I've been Keen to understand.
Yesterday, I bought my first coin ever with my first payout from the platform and I got guide and help from my friend and you don't know how much joy I feel. It may be little but I feel I'm gradually getting off the ignorance bench.
I came into the platform with the thought of doing just what I know how to; write.
But with each day that passes, I'm exposed to more things, more curiosity and thankful for people who are willing to put me through, where I lack understanding.
And this is why I think people who are interested in improving their experience here should start to learn about it too, rather than just rely on what they know and assume. Everyone acts on what they know, so knowing a little more can make quite a big difference in how we approach and walk our path - perhaps even finding like I did, a lot of new ways that I didn't know existed, and there are even more now.
Yes, I agree.
As said, time matters and being on the blockchain a long time doesn't mean that a great deal is known, as there is the possibility to stay very narrow and not roam wide. This can mean that there is the feeling of knowing, but there is no visibility on what isn't known.
This is why it's good to have someone who has gone ahead guide to understand beyond the surface.
I'm getting around to knowing a few more things than I'd always known.
And I'm just learning of the block chain time.
There's a lot to know and you have a way of imparting so much knowledge with your posts.
Thank you.
I am glad more people are giving it a go and giving it a chance. There is a long way for crypto to grow, yet many act as if this is near mass adoption level. There are 7 billion more people to go before that happens :)
It takes some time to learn, but don't just focus on the promise of money - generally that is nonsense :)
Thank you, I'll keep this in mind.
