I agree with your "Guru" sentiment, it's a word which has been tarnished by idiots.

I kinda stumbled upon Steemit because I took a course on Crypto's from there I stumbled across Superiorcoin. I'm now mining the coin with some oldish kit and will be building a rig in the coming months after learning how it all works.

So, learn, research and apply, that's my way, as we continue this "Crypto's & Blockchain" journey. :)

Upvoted, Comment & Resteemed task from kryptonia @stevehuggett

Neatly summed up thanks @stevejhuggett learning never stops, @kryptonia has made this easier for most.

Yeah I agree :)

Haha. I became a certified blockchain expert, primarily to give me a bit more credibility in my business as I teach blockchain courses, but you're right, I'm less of an expert than many people on Steemit. I know enough to teach the general concepts, but 'Expert' - not sure about that.

Can totally relate I did A+ years ago, love software, hated hardware side but everything changes so quickly how can anyone be an expert in technology today.

This is true, a lot of these so called professional certifications are just money spinners for the organisations that invent them.

I like the adoption graph. All I would say is that I think we're leaning a little bit closer to early adopters, there are still many innovators but a lot of people with zero knowledge of cryptocurrencies are also benefiting from its technology. And that's fine, because you only need a people who know what they're doing to uphold of widespread use. Have you ever heard of the V50 lectures?

No I have not heard about V50 lectures @impatientoptim it is good to keep inquiring and learning.

The V-50 lectures are a large set lectures created back in the 1980s by Andrew J. Galambos on the subject of volitional science. They're probably one of the best libertarian expositions I ever witnessed, and it really redefined my frame of reference about freedom, especially Financial Freedom.
I highly recommend them to any thinking person like yourself, although now they're are only on audio tapes.
Have a lovely day.

I will hunt that down and go through them thanks @impatientoptim

My thinking started to deviate during 2008, Alan Moore made more sense to me than most and I still follow his ideas http://www.no-straight-lines.com/ life is definitely changing in more ways than one.

Awesome! Thanks for the recommendation. You have a great day!

For steady and sustainable presence in crypto market, we should forget "get rich quick" slogan as you mentioned.
Examining each claim's truthfulness takes effort and time. Everyone saw what happened to ZLC lasr week. Bitconnect etc
we need to focus on fundamentals more than technical indicators and rhat takes time for reading and understanding

Nothing in life is free, education and learning take time before actually earning. Finding the right place and community to share and learn in, to me are of the utmost importance.

Thanks for your comment, appreciated @honarparvar

Reteemed and great post!

Great to have you visiting @ianstevenson

Enjoying your articles @sanitizemylife informative and fun.

A good message Joan, and one that needs to constantly put out there. Do your own research before making a judgement. Make sure you look at both sides of any question, even if you don't agree, you may still learn something.

I don't think I have ever posted without giving the same warning!

We hear of too many being duped into believing crypto is a 'gravy train', no warnings as fast as you make, you can lose @berolena

So true @joanstewart ..so many people predicting all sorts of things on cryptocurrency around here!

Doing one's own due diligence is better in the long run, and the final decisions do not rest on other's hearsay. :)

No one to blame but oneself when things go wrong, best to do your own homework always @dianadee

I personally bliv there is not guru in this crypto space .....kryptonia (ezekiel)

Debates, ideas but no guru, you are right @eastyga

Hey Joan, returning the favor from Kryptonia.

I agree that crypto has a steep learning curve, but well worth it!
