A nice advice for all those who want to invest in bitcoin that you won't get rich overnight as no one has ever become in most cases but you need to think about safeguarding your future like you take insurance policies and plans for your kids and old age.So it is better not to regret at that time making same false and lame excuses.Be part of it now.

Interesting how the sheeple sit on the sidelines watching bitcoin do a 5X since pre-Covid, and do nothing, while also watching inflation reek havoc on the food/goods/services that they buy daily during the same timeframe and feel no way to escape it.

How many people ever really benefit from the obvious multipliers we are fortunate enough to see this time? In the future many, many, many will say, I should have seen it all along it is so obvious now.

But this has astonished me the entire time.

And I know I am not the only one who has been saying to many of his friends and even acquaintances that Bitcoin is going to change the world, and it has a long way to go (including the obligatory risk assessment, even catastrophic risks).

And the responses all fall into a predictable range:

It's a bubble/tulips.
It's the MySpace of crypto.
It's too late.
It will be made illegal.

And the contrarian in me comforts myself because if it were so obvious to everyone I would not have been afforded the extraordinary chance I have had.

But it is just as hard to convince someone that there is still, today, a chance to get in early.

I have boiled it down to this:

Quote from: My Pitch

If Bitcoin continues to survive, and only takes an amount of value held in, for example, gold, we still have a 10x left That's the minimum. Why would you not hedge the possibility by at least downloading the Cash App, or Strike and just put 0.5% of your savings in it? It's still a binary bet!

That's my current pitch. I think it works about 3% of the time.

The mind boggles.

China proved that if Bitcoin is made illegal it will have little affect of the usage.
