1. Never trust anyone's price predictions.

2. Don't "diversify" into other cryptocurrencies; none of them are actually decentralized, everything except bitcoin is shitcoin (yes, really) and it's all gambling. The purpose of Bitcoin is not gambling, but to end modern slavery (fiat currency).

3. When everyone you know is talking about Bitcoin, you are on top of a bull market. However, you will probably be too exuberant to realize this. This will be obvious in hindsight.

4. Don't "trade a few altcoins on the side to get more bitcoins." You're not that smart and there's a huge chance you'll get wrecked.

5. DCA on bitcoin. Ignore your emotions. Don't try to monitor the market over time. Just stack as much as you can on each paycheck.

6. Don't get too excited about Bitcoin; people will feel like you are cheating them even though you are just trying to help them.

7. Go to meetings and conferences. Don't be isolated. Bitcoiners are generally very amazing people.

8. When people ask you how to buy Bitcoin, send them to a BITCOIN ONLY company. Example: My cousin bought Bitcoin (on Coinbase) during the bull market, then sold it for Shiba on the same platform and now she has almost lost everything. Bitcoin-only companies are the safest option to keep newcomers from doing new things.

9. Stay on Twitter#bitcoininostr. Of course, if you're reading this, you're already here... but I only joined Twitter in 2020, and I can say that keeping your bitcoins alone is much less noticeable when you see so many other people on this platform experiencing the same things that You are.

10. Be skeptical of influencers. Even me (I'm not a big account guy, but still). Some are good, some are bad. Even if they have good intentions, their judgment can be clouded by bad incentives.
