It's funny what is considered an expert by people.. It shows how little people _really_ know. Even within the cryptocurrency scene you'll find many self-proclaimed cryptocurrency experts who often times aren't _really_ on the forefront. 

It's funny, but I sometimes get my best info from the most scrawny and unprofessional looking nerdy teenage guys who record their youtube videos in some downtrodden bedroom. You'd be tempted to dismiss them but often they're the ones who find cryptocurrencies that are about to explode first before everybody else gets in. By the time the 'experts' finally get to informing the world, there's at most 30% gain left to be had. So far, sticking with the nerdy guys has been far better than listening to the 'experts'. 

It's good that Bitcoin is discussed so much though! With all these altcoins doing so great, it's easy to forget about Bitcoin and how it still has to gain mainstream acceptance.
