Hello, I researched d2jsp and could not find any threads on Cryptocurrency. This is simply resources I think would be useful to anyone starting out.

Guides:
https://www.tradingheroes.com/cryptocurrency-trading-guide-beginners/#Exchanges (beginner's guide)
https://blockgeeks.com/cryptocurrency-investing/ (beginner's guide)
https://blockgeeks.com/guides/cryptocurrency-wallet-guide/ (wallet guide, much important)
https://www.lifewire.com/cryptocoin-mining-for-beginners-2483064 (cryptocurrency mining guide)

Trading Platforms (USD/EU -> Crypto)
https://www.coinbase.com/join/5a1f8594036e9302ab466d65 (easy to use, best place to start, only has three coins) (referral link, we each get $10 when you buy $100 worth of Bitcoin)
https://www.gdax.com/ (owned by Coinbase, lower fees, more advanced platform)
https://gemini.com/ (owned by Winklevoss twins, lower fees, fewer coins)
https://www.kraken.com/ (accepts multiple currencies [USD/EU etc], seems to have quite a bit of downtime though)
https://shapeshift.io/#/coins (never used)

Trading Platforms (Crypto -> Crypto, used to buy "alt coins", there are dozens of these)
https://bittrex.com/
https://www.binance.com/
https://www.bitfinex.com/

Reddits:
https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/
https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoMarkets/

Youtube (the ones I found to be most unbiased):
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTKyJALgd09WxZBuWVbZzXQ/videos
https://www.youtube.com/user/chrisdunntv/videos

Other useful links:
https://www.coindesk.com/ (cryptocurrency news)
https://coinmarketcap.com/ (tracks cryptocurrency)
https://www.tradingview.com/markets/cryptocurrencies/ (advanced technical analysis tool for cryptocurrency)
https://www.investopedia.com/ (great for any financial terms)

Terms:
"HODL" = Hold (reddit joke)
"Fiat" = currency that a government has declared to be legal tender, but it is not backed by a physical commodity
"Ponzi scheme"" = scam
"FOMO" = Fear Of Missing Out
"FUD" = Fear, uncertainty, doubt
"Shill" = Attempting to increase hype over something
"Bagholder" = Someone who has been holding too long
"Moon/mooning" = Expectancy of something to rise very quickly
"Bear" = Market is going down
"Bull" = Market is going up
"Whale" = Someone who owns a lot of "x"
"Pump and Dump" = To increase hype over something that you already hold to increase value, then to sell after it spikes, mostly done by people with large followings.
"2FA" = Two factor authentication

Podcasts:
Unchained
The Cryptoverse

Books:
Digital Gold by Nathaniel Popper

Apps:
Google Authenticator (or similar)
Coinbase
Bitcoin Ticker (has individual widgets for each cryptocurrency)

What are some end of year expectations?
What does your portfolio look like?
What is your stance on Bitconnect? Ponzi or nah?

Let me know if I missed anything!

Touche, that's why I created the topic tbh, I didn't see an active thread for it yet.

I searched "cryptocurrency" which resulted in a couple 1-2 page threads which seemed to die out. Didn't search bitcoin strictly.

Well, hopefully some people can get use out of this :thumbsup:
