Great post! It is always important for anybody who is looking to get into crypto or investing/trading in general to remember that there is no such thing as a guaranteed (Anyone remember Paycoin's outlandish $20 guarantee, that fell flat on its face?) as things change as new issues arise, new competitors form, and other things which are out of one's control.
Finally I'd also like to remind everyone that you should only invest what you can afford to lose. I know that I personally don't want to see posts down the line saying "X made me lose my house," or "I'm broke thanks to X."
