a prime example of this is:
if a trader is just influencer following via copying trading signals. the naive trader learns nothing. but if the naive trader learns the economics of bitcoin, such as looking at the electrical costs of the planet and (with hardware costs added in) calculating minimum and maximum mining costs across the planet.

he can then see the value-premium window which bitcoin markets can then potentially speculate within during certain periods and can then see the market price within that window to see if its trading nearer to value or premium to know whens best to buy or sell without a need of an influencer

We have so many of those coaches on YouTube, they will tell you " oh don't worry, just follow my signal and you will be cashing out big time, you just have to subscribe to my private channel and I will be dropping the signals there ". Trust me there are millions of gullible one's among us that will easily fall for those trick, you know why, most people are just too lazy to think with their own head, so they believe somebody else can help them do the thinking and at the end, they become another victim.

Crypto is knowledge base, whatever urge your having in terms of making profit  on the immediate should be channelled in the knowledge part, the key to survival in a volatile environment as that of the crypto is knowledge, so seek yeh knowledge first and every other thing will be added onto you.

Acquiring sufficient amount of knowledge is a must do before you try to enter the market. Invest in yourself first before going in a real risky investment. That will be your weapon not to fall against scams, and that will be your asset so you won't be investing at a loss, but make sure profits are waiting ahead. And lastly, turn your crypto knowledge into skills, and that's where passive income starts.

Knowledge is essential for success in any business or financial endeavor. If you understand the market and gain knowledge about it, you will avoid being a victim of online scammers. Probably I know someone who is into crypto trading, has a good understanding of crypto, and has made a lot of money from it. And he uses his skills to teach others how to trade by collecting funds and conducting online classes with beginners to guide them through the trading process. And everything is going fine, what I'm trying to emphasize here is that not all mentors in online classes are scammers, some are willing to help others reach their goals. But some are scared to learn because anything in this life you need to sacrifice before you can achieve your goals.  

if you think you won't spend money to learn you will never satisfied and you won't understand all about it. Some people spend a lot of money learning so that they can educate others and make money from it. If you have acquired information about cryptocurrency, anyone who attempts to con you will be caught, thus we should be learning every day and becoming more experienced.

You are right, without having knowledge about cryptocurrency it is impossible to succeed even if you don't want to be a trader and you decide to be a long term Bitcoin investor you still need to have knowledge about Bitcoin investment at least the basic knowledge which is knowing how to create your own wallet and protect it and how to start accumulating and you can start however after starting you still need to acquire more knowledge about Bitcoin like knowing different strategy of accumulating Bitcoin and knowing the history of Bitcoin investment.
In what ever business you want to go into you need to have knowledge about that particular business if you want to succeed in it, for example you can't just go into real estate business without acquiring knowledge about real estate, a lot of people that fail in business are because they lack proper knowledge about that business, so if you want to start crypto investment you need to acquire the basic knowledge needed then you can start then along the line you will be knowing more about it, don't allow people to do things for you when it comes to crypto investment learn and do it yourself to avoid being scammed.

If you have knowledge - you would never look for said signals, that's a given.
These can only be perceived from the lenses that it's a tip, not a guideline on what to do. Other than that, your way of things will always be better than somebody else's simply because you can learn on your own mistakes.

It is not an easy process to acquire knowledge, and many people are not ready to commit to this long process that involves learning, becoming frustrated at not assimilating or understanding, and then finally understanding. It is an easier process for some people to just follow the signals or copy the trade of other people who have more knowledge. This is mostly because these people are more focused on making money in the short term and they have no long-term goals.

For those who have also acquired knowledge, you should know that knowledge is a responsibility and that what you know can simply quickly become outdated if you do not commit to refreshing the information. As an individual who already has knowledge, you have to now make sure it is up to date.

To be successful in cryptocurrency, more knowledge is needed and more experience is needed. For example, if someone wants to trade and invest, they need to gain a lot of experience in both areas. As you mentioned, you cannot become rich overnight without proper knowledge of the crypto market. Even if someone gains proper knowledge about the crypto market, they may never be able to say for sure that they will become rich overnight.
If someone is able to gain complete experiences about the crypto market, even if that person wants to be a successful investor and trader, he should not rely on his online or others people signal, because they are completely fraudulent.

There are some things in life you can just try and see how it goes, and just learn along the way through experience. Dancing, riding a bike, many cases of cooking fall under this category. But there are other things, which entail certain risks, and where it's better to be informed before moving forward. Medicine, employment contracts are examples of this. To me, Bitcoin is also closer to this second category, as it is a volatile currency, there are tons of scams around it, a lot of misinformation, and it is fairly easy to make very big mistakes (like losing a password or sending money to the wrong address).
So knowledge is indeed important and empowering.

Knowledge is everything that is so important and one needs to acquire it before going into crypto. When Knowledge is been neglected and people rush ìnto crypto,  it will end as lose at last. There is no need rush go into crypto,  I think getting crypto knowledge is what people needs to take time to grab.

Some of the people we consider to be crypto coach don't really know  enough,  some just disguise to claim what they don't know because of what they will benefit. Even if there are crypto coach that are knowledgeable you can still just depend on their own know because crypto is a personal journey which people needs to understand it well.
