crypto is so new and unusual and unfathomable , since it is " a perfect storm " others just get caught out. a perfect storm is where three or more massive events coincide in time and space.
like a ocean weather storm travelling north west. the location where this active severe weather system meets another is often a severe danger to ships etc. but where three such weather systems collide obviously the risk of sinking is greatly magnified . . .
cryptocurrency is unknown secure internet type programs, but whereas the internet focuses on communications ; crypto focuses on MONEY then you add in the final ingredient such as massive profits and busy, distracted people are ripe for falling for scams ! ! !
remember if it sounds to good to be true then it is most likely not true :) always keep safe and consult different sources , that is what i like about steemit ; multiple independent sources . . .
remember you have an agenda, to have a fun interest / diversion and to make a bit of money or whatever your aims and goals are. and everyone in crypto has their own agenda , all you got to do is work out what their motivators are ! ! !
