To some people is just all about the profit. They try as much as they can to grab whatever opportunities they can. There intense is purely based on there motive...
You should not deceive yourself, we are all gathered here for this purpose to make a profit. And there is nothing shameful in this, we do not steal or cheat, but use the already proven DCA method in order to further ensure financial independence not only for ourselves, but also for our children.
We hold Bitcoin for the future, because I will earn more benefits from the amount of Bitcoin I deposit after a long time. But this Bitcoin investment should also be made for the sake of my children, the longer the Bitcoin investment, the more benefits will be earned. Therefore, Bitcoin should be invested in a long-term manner and to eliminate future financial shortages.
You (Glen Hoddle) seem to still be framing your motivation to invest in bitcoin in terms of "profits" like tvplus006 proclaims "everyone" to be doing.
I think making profits the driving motive of our investment sometimes leads to unnecessary pressure and panicking, especially when the price is not going your wish, which sometimes makes some investors take wrong decision about there investment, either to sell or tap from it since they are no longer sure of what next will happen. This of course makes them not to achieve there intended plan of increasing there portfolio and HODL for long.
Sure we know that we anticipate an increase or profit from our investments, but making it out driving motive for investing might make one begin to think or reason like a trader who is not relaxed when there is a decline but always wanting the price to climbing, acting as if he never knew that bitcoin fluctuates, and that's a whole lot of pressure.
Perhaps, we should approach our investment with the long term mentality, just accumulating and HODLing, after all, we should be investing from our discretionary, and so, we shouldn't be pressured by some declines we see since thats part of bitcoin characteristics
These are fair points Bigjoe33 since even if we invest into bitcoin based on a presumption that in the long term we expect that the odds are pretty decent that the BTC prices will be inclined towards going up rather than down, yet it may well be the case that in the first 4 years and perhaps even longer (10 years or longer) guys may well be buying their bitcoin on a regular basis (such as weekly) no matter what is the price, and they are largely just focused on ongoingly building their bitcoin holdings without looking at the price, and surely there may well be some expectation that ongoingly buying the bitcoin has good chances of getting into profits, yet they likely realize that something like bitcoin is quite volatile and even under attack from different angles, so they are not guaranteed to be profitable from their bitcoin investment, yet if they measure how much they put into bitcoin (and they don't use any kind of leverage) then the most that they could lose would be up to 100% - yet since bitcoin seems to be a pretty decent asymmetric bet to the upside, so even if they could lose 100%, there are various upside possibilities that go much higher than 100%, so then whether they get profits or not, there are decent chances of even great upside performance - yet they still might not be directly motivated by monitoring profits but instead perhaps just considering by the time they get to the point that they are going to need their investment, then they will have options in regards to such investment.
So if they start investing when they are around 50 years old, then maybe they are tentatively thinking that whatever the bitcoin is going to be worth in 15 years (when they are around 65 years old), then they will start to cash out of their bitcoin (perhaps sustainable withdrawal) starting around when they are 65 years old. Ideas of profits are in there, yet they are still not centrally motivated by profits as tvplus006 seems to want to simplify and denigrate motives and to suggest that we are all motivated by the same narrow ways of thinking about our investment into bitcoin. .and yeah, I get the sense that guys who try to frame everything as transactional are the traders who might not even have any abilities to think about buying something (like bitcoin) and say that they are willing to ride it to zero... I recall early in my forum experiences, coming across some guys who were ongoingly proclaiming that "everyone needs to establish their exit criteria," and that is the same kind of narrow and inadequate trader mentality in which some of these traders think that they have all these matters of when to get in and when to get out figured out (as if investment fits into those same narrow frames)..

This is overly emotional talk. Set a specific time frame for accumulating Bitcoin like as 4-10 years. Bitcoin is not a fixed asset. The price of Bitcoin is volatile and can go up or down. Holding Bitcoin for the long term without a specific goal is just an emotional talk. You need to build physical assets and accumulate Bitcoin over the same period through discretionary income.
Investing in Bitcoin for the long term can result in high profits if the value of your holdings increases. But it is not guaranteed that the value of Bitcoin will continue to increase indefinitely. If you can hold down a risk tolerant fund you can holding Bitcoin for 10 years.
You are the one who seems to be impractical, cocadalcan.
When guys get started investing in bitcoin, they may well not have specific goals. Specifics of the goals do not necessarily need to be established in advance.
They might start out by considering themselves to be investing $100 per week and also to build up his back up funds to be 3 months of his expenses.. so then maybe they have tentative plans to potentially increase their weekly investment amount, yet when they start, they feel like they don't know much if anything about bitcoin, so they feel they are going to need to study bitcoin and also to solidify aspect of their cashflow management within the context of their
9 personal factors (that they have not figured out exactly, either). Guys do not have to have all their specifics figured out when they get started investing in bitcoin. In order to get started, all the newbie bitcoin investor needs to figure out is whether or not they have discretionary funds. If they have discretionary funds they can get started and they can figure out various details as they go.
