What I think, even as a huge fan of bitcoin, is that the past is not a reliable indicator of what's going to happen in the future.  Yep, I could've been richer than I'd ever want to be had I pounced on $200 BTC about 10 years ago (and I hate to even think about that), but with something as groundbreaking--but new--as bitcoin is, there's just no telling if it'll continue upward toward $500k, $1M, or higher.

Now having just voiced my skepticism about what amounts to technical analysis, I happen to be pretty bullish on bitcoin and if you can afford to buy a single BTC and hold it for years, you're probably going to be thanking yourself that you did.  And if you can't afford the $86k to buy 1BTC, there's no reason not to buy what you can afford, assuming you're also bullish.  I'd say most people around here wouldn't be able to invest that kind of money without taking out a loan, because it's a lot of money.

*Going to stop thinking about 2015 now*

to a lot of people, this is their ultimate goal. but i do not think we should just stop to 1 bitcoin if we could. if anything this is only the start because once we have this much money there is so much we can do

we can continue investing in bitcoin or we can maybe start a business or so
yup seems pretty reasonable strategy to me

some people can make accumulating bitcoin quite complicated but it is really not as long as your plan involves being in here for the long term

1 Bitcoin is possible for many but even half a Bitcoin i think is a great goal to have for those looking to hold it till 2030 at least as by then Bitcoin should be worth $500k at least, some even say closer to $1m.

I don't have any Bitcoin currently, but plan to sell all of my altcoins later this year peak bull run and then reinvest all my profits into Bitcoin in the next bear market which should be 2026/2027.

I am not sure how much BTC that will get me , but I am hoping to have somewhere between half and 1 full Bitcoin by 2030.

Accumulating 1 Bitcoin is a nice goal to achieve because the value can make pretty anyone financially comfortable few years from now in any part of the world. Depending on the country of residence the value of 1 Bitcoin now can even place some individual in the elite class of the country but in some country, it is just average, this is why I believe in the future, when Bitcoin would have risen to $500k or $1 million, then the 1 Bitcoin is just all you need to be settle for life. The only problem is accumulating 1 Bitcoin as it has appeared extremely difficult for a lot of people except few who are doing the elite jobs or running good businesses.

It is a nice goal, but it is not easy to achieve. The possibility of reaching the goal all depends on the local currency, financial capability, and investor mindset. I know people sell their homes, cars, and businesses to buy bitcoin in some area. Owning a whole bitcoin is like owning real estate in some part of the world, especially in underdeveloped countries. IMO, I will always say it all depends on the investor to choose where he feels is sutiable to save wealth. If he chooses bitcoin, then fine.

I told people between 10 and 15 years ago to spend the money and get a few bitcoins.  Few did.  They heard the same nonsense then as now that included the words: ponzi, tulips, hacked, not safe, not backed etc.  

To your "21 bitcoins", back in 2011 or 2012 there was the "Vladimir club" - get to 2100 bitcoins.  Then I recall people wanting 210.  Or 100 etc.  Time flies and the fiat price has continued to go up.  (edit: had to look for one of the links: https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/98239.0)

I suspect very few people held on since then.  I suspect many sold a lot of coins since then.

There are two options in that case to grow. You could either take a loan against it, and try to grow it, which means you will slowly pay it back and grow it, or you could just keep on buying after you reach 1 bitcoin as well. I remember when having a few bitcoins wasn't a big deal, it was just couple hundred bucks, now it's nearly 90, peaked at 108k. Being here, seeing that happen, and missing that chance all the same makes me really question my brain, sometimes I feel like a moron. It just happened and I can't reverse history so I have to accept it.

What we need to achieve however is not forget about this in the future, if this happened already, then saving and accumulating more bitcoin for a future increase is still very important so keep buying after 1 bitcoin is a smart move.

It's easier said than done. Building a Bitcoin arsenal is now more difficult than ever, and it will take forever for some people, to be fair. It was easy when Bitcoin was still very cheap and that price is the best descriptor of "hedge against inflation," not when the price is now hitting the roof top.

Motivation here and there, but the more the price increases, the less the potential gains and even the more you would have to wait to gain anything reasonable from it. And I tell you, someone who invested elsewhere might have made multiple turnovers before your Bitcoin can give you 2x if not strategically bought.

This is the first I am hearing of this slogan and I've paid keen attention in the space for some time, I am already loving it and I couldn't agree with this wanka any more. Talk about a Bitcoin Banka Wanka!!! Love it! Owning one whole bitcoin is what most men only dream of now a days and if they don't have it already then surely they had better start stacking those chips because nobody isn't going to stack it for them! I mean unless their parents already did are are doing so now for their future or alive kids right this very second!
