I’ll go first.
I’m older than the average crypto buyer. I became interested in the topic by accident. I canceled a boat trip last April after a family member broke an ankle, so I used the unexpected free time to buy and read a few bitcoin, blockchain and Ethereum books and articles.
Shortly after, I had verified exchange accounts, and I bought bitcoin, ether, litecoin and sent bitcoin to other exchanges to buy altcoins.
I read everything I could find on the internet. I realized I didn’t like bitcointalk’s outdated interface. No matter how I set my browser’s fonts, posts were hard to read. And altcoins are lumped into one large node that is difficult to sort and search.
YouTube videos often take 20 mins to provide info that I can read in 6 mins or less. And you can’t easily refer back to specific portions of a YouTube video.
Reddit’s post ranking system often left good info hard to find while memes, GIFs and fake or misleading titles became popular. I was reading and answering the same questions over and over and over...
Thorough easy to read info was hard to find, and no site had an extensive resource library. Most sites maintain a curated list of other site links. Many didn’t approach the topic from the perspective of an investor familiar with other asset classes but new to crypto.
So I set down to create a plan, revised it, reviewed it, tried to set up a couple of sites on my own, revised the plan with more features, and finally hired a designer to get it done right using optimized content management and delivery, mobile friendly interface, and experienced troubleshooting experts.
Along the way I continued to buy several cryptos and survived several market rises and precipitous drops.
In crypto and Jimi Hendrix terms, I am experienced. And verbose.
How about the rest of you?
