A good read: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/what-makes-bitcoin-different-from-crypto
Long story short, BTC is different as:
-
Bitcoin is a leaderless system of rules, not rulers
-
Bitcoin Is actually decentralized (unlike many which just "look decentralized")
-
Bitcoin Is censorship-resistant (like even if the government legally bans it, you can still use btc)
-
Bitcoin Is seizure resistant (this is if you keep your pkey safe!)
-
Bitcoin had a fair launch
-
Bitcoin is issued based on proof-of-work (crypto like eth are based on proof-of-stake)
-
Bitcoin is scarce
Hope that helps :)
I personally found that I can't post or follow on primal despite being logged in and all. Probably just me, I don't know. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I personally use a tool called TextSniper. It does various things including scanning QR codes on your screen.

It isn't a free service but it is well worth it. You pay to get lifetime licenses.
I very much agree with you on that. That's why I've recently have been trying out Cryptosteel's seed signer. It is worth a look:

Just think of it like a physical engraving seed signer. Just do what Obelix does with his menhirs in a way (:
Yes, the technical side is definitely something I want to focus heavily on. Thanks for all the project ideas, it will certainly help me learn a lot :)

That's certainly good to know. Do you feel there are any risks however in starting early in some cases?
