We are not talking about trading in this thread, so trading may well not be a way to have any honeypot with bitcoin especially since the vast majority of traders suck and historically buying and holding bitcoin has proven to be a quite lucrative approach to bitcoin and there is no real evidence that buying/holding has changed as a good approach to bitcoin.. which you seem to somewhat understand from the contents of your post... in which you are recognizing the current period as a likely dip period.

I agree with 99% of your opinions, but 1 percent of them don't. I mean, it should be a profitable approach for investors or holders instead of bitcoin. I certainly know what you mean, but sometimes small mistakes can raise questions and lead to invalid understanding.

So far I have avoided trading as much as I can, it is the reason why I was able to invest and become a holder. From experience, trading sucks and it has dashed many of my dreams just because of lack of emotional control. Of course I don't want to discuss further about trading, that's just a discussion that is not good in this thread. Come back to the topic. Wink

I don't mind if you disagree with me.

We have more interesting discussions if people do not necessarily agree and if they are trying to make points that they really believe to be true.. so which part of what I said is disagreeable?

I know that mistakes can be made.. so if someone buys BTC and tries to secure BTC for the long run and they are in bitcoin for several years, maybe even a couple of cycles, so they have a lot of money, maybe even 20x profits, but if such longer term BTC HODLer/accumulator person does not know what they are doing, then they may not end up making any money from their having had been in BTC because they screwed up their ways of securing their bitcoin.. is that where you are disagreeing with me? or something else?

Another thing could be that past results does not guarantee future results, so I know that, even though I did not say it.. but frequently we cannot necessarily say all things inside of each post, even though from time to time, I try.
