Greetings Dylan and welcome to the community.

Yeah, I wouldn't trust any of those Youtube vids and FB adds. One of the best places to learn about crypto would be right here on this platform.

As per Hive account@braaiboy's comment feel free to come and join us on Discord :) There are always people around that can help you with any queries you may have. Whether it be the Steemit platform itself or crypto's. There's plenty of knowledge available there :)
