if you want to invest and trade I don't think it's too late to invest because Bitcoin is in the correction stage and has not yet reached ath above 65k$
if you only for the short term it is not a problem but you will only get a profit of 10-30% for each trade,
It may be their different choice to buy or wait for the Bitcoin price to experience a very bad decline. some people will also regret not making a decision last year by keeping Bitcoins. you can see the current price of Bitcoin which is very surprising. maybe next year will surprise others with the latest prices.
If they can get bitcoin at $56k, they will not worry because the price is lower and is good to hold for some time to wait for the price to rise again. But even if the price is down for more, that price is still good to buy and as usual, after the price reaches a lower price, it will bounce for a while to the high price. The next year could be the time for bitcoin to explode and rise higher but bitcoin still have time until the end of this year to increase. It is good to see bitcoin price now can moves for a little price and hopefully, it will still continue.
