Bitcoin investors know that they will have to wait a long time if they get caught in a bear season. If you enter the bull season prepared, you can make a lot of profit from Bitcoin. As you said, there are risks and if the Bitcoin price starts to fall and this drop happens suddenly, it may be necessary to wait for a long time.

Every investor knows that there is a risk factor and invests accordingly. One of the advantages of Bitcoin is that it always makes a profit in the long run. The hard part is waiting as long as necessary.

When taking up some position and planning to have that long term hold then it would really be that best that you shouldnt really be waiting for some huge dump or crash in the market because it would really be that eventually be going up, but somehow we cant blame those people who would really be having those kind of views considering that maximum profitability would really be the main reason on why they would really be having such approach on which this is something that they will really be that targeting or prioritizing on which it will really be just that normal. It doesnt matter on what are the decisions that we are making, just make it sure
that you are really just that investing into the amount that it wont really be that affecting your finances on the moment that crypto investment would really be that going south.

It would really be just that depending on you whether you would be making investment as of this moment or waiting up for the right opportunity. It would really be always your own choice
and it would really be always your decision on where you would really be making yourself having that entry or would really be waiting up further.

If someone intends to invest in 1 bitcoin now, then it is quite risky, but when the price reaches $100k, it will make the investor very happy. However, if you are hesitant about investing a large amount at once, then someone can use the DCA method, or buy it little by little but consistently.
Many people are hesitant to buy bitcoin because they are afraid of the volatile prices that occur. yeah, I feel that way. However, if one is confident about the future development of bitcoin prices, I think doing the DCA method is the best.

Because they don't want small fishes to become bigger and eat any of their profits by selling out, this is repeating behavior for years now.
They pump the price up so people buy in FOMO then dump it all and wait few years, then repeat at higher levels with the money they have obtained to get more people fish on board.

It's practically a legal scam to pump and dump, manipulate the market as they like by colluding with other sharks on their meetings.
You can call it a conspiracy theory but I've seen it first hand in different markets.
They don't care about Bitcoin, all they want is to eat small fishes who think they can make it - and most of them can't because life is full of surprises.


This sharks have been doing this type of manipulations long before we were alive, 10 years is nothing.
Their knowledge and techniques are far more sophisticated that you can imagine and compared to them we're nothing more than wishful gamblers and we can't do nothing about it, just watch the show and hope for the best.

The technology behind Bitcoin is pure and honest but the big money and some people involved in it are very dirty, evil to the bone and clever.

tl;dr; Just holding is the best option but not everyone can afford another 10, 15 years and due to the gambling nature of the space some people will try to time the market and that's where they will lose.

It is important that every investor understands risk and can control emotions when prices fall, because Bitcoin is very volatile if we do not understand our risks will be trapped even with panic so that we sell it when the price falls. Because basically investing in bitcoin will not suffer losses if we do not sell it even if the price goes down we only need to hold and be patient until the price rises again.

The average investor that produces significant profits for those who are patient. In addition, we entered Bull Run after a few months ago there was a halving bitcoin, at this time bitcoin had not yet fully risen and usually bitcoin would reach the highest peak a few months after this halving occurred, we can see from the history of the previous halving. Although the time is different, but I believe the pattern will remain the same.

What makes them hesitate is that on the moment that they've seen the price is already that high then they would really be having those thoughts that they should wait for the price to go down or having those crashes
and this is the main reason on why there would really be those people who do get left behind on the moment that the price would really be moving upwards and this is where regret would really be tending to kick in
and making those regrets that they should have invested or entered on that particular time on the moment that they have seen it.  Its never been too late for Bitcoin investment, although you should really be that making yourself wary that when it comes to potential profits that you could possibly get then it would really be just that depending on how much that you have invested and also dont expect for something easy x2 or x3 with the price because basing up on the current price of Bitcoin now and its marketcap then it wont really be that easy on achieving those high prices but well it would really be just that depending on you whether you could
really be able to handle out such thing or you would really be opting out on investing with altcoins.

That's the problem, Bitcoin is mostly "used" for holding so it's not being used.
The transactions we see on the blockchain are mostly bots trading back and forth between themself.

Bitcoin is losing the biggest market of them all, being Money - and has been reduced to a real estate investment thanks to Saylor and other idiots.

If the "digital gold real estate" narration was ditched and Bitcoin got back to it's roots being digital cash it could sky rocket in price but first protocol would need to be updated to scale more (dynamic block size).

Instead the evil people that are behind the scenes are pushing the promise of L2 fixing everything to earn money from fees on LN that is a big failure.
Even one of the main devs ditched the project because current exploitable behavior can't be fixed without changing Bitcoin protocol, on top of that it's getting more and more centralized and when Bitcoin is overloaded with transactions it doesn't work at all - nice scaling solution lol.

People need to realize one thing: Bitcoin is digital cash first, if it fails at it - it has no reason to exist.
But the main reason people get into Bitcoin is to become "rich" in FIAT terms by just holding it, and they are the reason it's failing.

I talked about it in my little funny (but not funny) topic here:

Doubt is the mother of all fuck ups.

Never doubt. Better be sorry for doing it than not doing it. Gold has a history of multiple thousand years as money. Bitcoin has been around a little more than a decade. That means we are still the early adopters. Imagine the price of a bitcoin 10 years from now… It will be around a million usd probably. I don’t know about you but $1m is something people can retire on.

Think for the long term and you’ll be fine. If you get caught in the short term price actions you won’t achieve anything. People who made the most money from bitcoin did nothing but hodling. This is the way.

Your right that we have to take the risks into account but don't you think that the safest coin to invest into the world of crypto is Bitcoin?

We have seen in the past that coin have dumped so many people but Bitcoin had make people to wait for profits but it never dumped it's investors. I think the safest one to invest is Bitcoin.
