For those who are new to the Crypto world, here are some of the things you should bear in mind. Please note that I'm sharing this from personal experience and you should always do your own research (Dyor)
First of all, filter what you consume online. When I started trading , I would come online to see a lot of post regarding which coin to buy and what projects to venture into. As a newbie, I didn't even investigate. I was just buying a lot of them without doing any proper research and in doing so l, I made a lot of bad decisions that I could have easily avoided.
Another very important advice is to always invest what you can afford to lose. it's very easy to get carried away by other people's success story and this may spur you to invest an amount you can't afford to lose. This happens more than 50% of the time. Remember crypto has very high volatility and there's always a 50/50 chance of you either gaining or losing from it.
Next, Always do your own research! I cannot emphasize this enough. Don't just take a leap of faith and invest in a crypto project without doing your due diligence. it might cost you. There are a lot of tools at your disposal, use them and make researches before diving into that project or investment.
The last but not the least important, always be cautious. Don't throw caution to the wind when venturing into the crypto world.
Always remember not to be greedy.
This is my own little way of helping and I hope you found this little piece to be helpful.
