If Bitcoin can't be explained here and promoted with enthusiasm, then that is a huge red flag for me and any other potential investor.

Frankly,it does not matter to me where you want to learn. The point I made, is that not all the info posted here is correct. I only suggested another forum that is specific to Bitcoin so that any person becomes well informed of the subject at hand...especially if they are thinking of venturing into it.

To me this is no different then this forum. I am currently shopping for a certain brand of truck. Although I could post here for perhaps some general info. Instead I am posting on a specific related truck forum where people have purchased the brand of truck and can inform me what they like about the truck and also tell what they don't like about the truck. I would rather interact with that forum in order to make the most informed decision when and if I purchase.
