Read a lot, talk to friends or family who own crypto (but don’t take their advice )

Really one of the best things for me was opening a wallet and joining an airdrop or 2 so I could get familiar with keys and seed phrases etc.

Also if it’s a good project the telegram community can be helpful.

Then the next step , besides researching and podcasts etc, is to buy a tiny bit of ETH ( for me it is usefull tobhave some gas, even for getting free items).

My biggest advice is to go join Intelligent Cryptocurrency
