So over the last few weeks I've become the friend that everyone turns to for advice when it came to getting introduced to cryptocurrency. I was inspired by a couple new posts I saw within steemit that showed a lot of interest from people who wanted to get involved but didn't know where to start.

I think it's a good idea to get some reasons as to what stopped you from investing and why to help make the transition into investing into cryptocurrency a lot easier for newbies. So comment below and let me know!

Probably when the day everyone get into market?i mean people around me, most of the people still are not interested in this. Even i just started now, i would consider myself aa beginning of the group. Maybe i just wish i am right :)

It's currently at the point where it could either be early or preparing for a dip then recovering. But the truth is you should never invest more than you can afford. Put an amount you're willing to lose and it could be worth something later!

I kept putting it off, but I was listening to Rogue money (they're on Steem now too) they were talking about etherium at 30 bucks and two weeks late it was at 80 bucks, I finely said what a minute, I'm sitting on stocks doing nothing, so set about learning crypto's, and it took a while to get set up in exchanges-, now I'm a believer. The people I hear that think it's "big brother" the government etc...they usually hold metals too and think bitcoin is the only cypto out there. May be hard to find Non-cyrpto people around Steem!!

Yeah you really need to be in either tech or tech related circles to be hearing a lot of talk around cryptocurrencies. But the good thing is thanks to some of the bigger currencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple it's started to spark a lot of interest in people who otherwise did not hear much about crypto.
