So I consider myself completely new to the space. I've only been dabbling in digital assets for a few months and have learned a great deal, especially from Cryptocoinnewz and the Coinigy team like Brian Beamish. Zach the creator of the youtube channel and steemit channel Crypto coin newz is super informative doing 3 to 5 videos a day. Some good analisis and basic market comparison. Brian is a trading genius.
What I've learned so far is:
- Only put in what you're willing to lose
- Patience, if you don't have any don't bother
- Don't be weak, sometimes you just have to HOLD
- Do your own research, Do not fall for pump and dumps. you will see them and you will get excited. It will pass
Look into the charts, look into their social medias, read the white papers, and read the comments. As far as platforms, if you're new this is where patience comes in for one example. Here in USA you have to jump through some hoops to get verified to actually use USD. I started with Coinbase. The verification process was easy with them and somewhat quick. From thereIi used it to transfer Ethereum or Bitcoin to my other exchanges. It's been fun but also time consuming doing research and learning as I go. I still have a lot to learn as I have barely scratched the surface yet coming into this totally green.
I welcome any information and input I can get as should anyone coming into the space. Knowledge is power.
I've gotten comfortable using
