Instead of spreading the values, ethics and promises that the right applications of the blockchain and cryptographic technologies could bring to society, there is an eruption on how one get easily get rich without putting in hard work and commitment.
One of the comparisons of this technology to the current situation is “Blockchain is to Bitcoin as Internet is to Facebook”. So today very many people are making money on the internet and the internet is being used to do very many things, yes the early adopters made money but who says you cannot make money today, Apps are being developed each and every other day and money is being made, look at Facebook, Whatsapp, Uber, Safeboda etc.
Usually, I see various posts on many social media platforms promising people immediate profits for a life time after investing a given amount. Please ignore them and do your research.
People who have lost their entire savings to fraudulent bitcoin investment schemes advertised on Facebook as posts are turning suicidal , please take note.
Some of these include;
FREE BTC the most reliable and proven sites per day to earn from 0.001 to 0.01 BTC and one time a week to win 2 - 5 BTC. 3000 $ payments directly to the bitcoin wallet, and pay well. Reff programm – 15 – 25 %
Please take my warning. This is not one of your usual get rich schemes that you keep hearing.
There is belief that the early adopters will get rich and given the fact this has been around for less than 20 year people are being duped to invest their money even with minimal research.
Yes, true some of the earlier adopters made money; some even didn’t know that they were investing but only to find out that were sitting on huge sums of money in Bitcoin. Read story https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/dec/09/bitcoin-forgotten-
Here are my suggestions on what you need to do get to get yourself started.
- Do not invest what you cannot afford to lose
- Research, and have interest.
- Do not be influenced by anyone. Let it be passion.
- Look at all the cryptocurrences, not only Bitcoin.
My friends stop listening to crypto success stories and take this opportunity to do research and establish the potential this technology has to the entire universe
