Selling Shovels in the Cryptocurrencies Gold Rush - Paid courses are, mostly, scams.

Greetings from Portugal.

During the California Gold Rush of 1849, very few prospectors became wealthy. The majority of individuals who made money back then were those who "sold shovels" to the prospectors who led hard lives panning for gold, along with jeans, tents, pickaxes, and other goods and services.

In contrast, the crypto bitcoin markets are examples of recent gold rushes. But crypto changes a lot, haves lot of different paths and takes some work to learn the diferent concepts. Tools and shortcuts that promisse profits with little work became appetizing.

With that, there are a lot of people that Sell courses rather than buying Bitcoin. Build a tool to enable users mint NFTs rather than speculating on the cryptocurrency market. Some of them really good. Most of them is not.

And I say most of them are scams because of the simple fact that nodoby can predict the future and there are too many factors that can change the prices.

There is excellent free and paid content available. There is dreadful paid and unpaid content available. I've seen several extremely well-done courses that are excellent for beginning investors. A course is likely to be awful if it makes any kind of return on investment.

Good free courses are offered by many CEXs.

I would love to ear the community thoughts!

Thanks!
