I was born in 2004. A few days ago, I happened to know about bitcoin. In fact, the concept of cryptocurrency existed even before bitcoin came out. But now bitcoin has become the king of cryptocurrency. Which means investing in cryptocurrency is no longer an early investor. Now I can't buy even 0.1 bitcoins for $100, but in the past someone bought a few hundred bitcoins for $100. This makes me very hopeless. In the past, when bitcoin was $1,100x means a hundred dollars for bitcoin, but it's hard to imagine a 100x from current price. it's very depressing because I think it's too late to invest in a great invention that comes out maybe once in a thousand years.
You know one of the biggest mistakes that I have in my mind when it comes to Bitcoin?
This exact question you have OP.I have regretted until today about not getting into Bitcoin last 2014 when I had the chance to just spare at least some few extra money when it was still under $600 USD per BTC. I was broke that time and I am afraid to spend money in something that I did not understand back then.
When I came back and then BTC skyrocketed like crazy, I said to myself that it was now too late to get into Bitcoin. It was still sitting around $12k that time, but I regretted not buying when it jumped like crazy around $30k and up to almost $70k when I am mostly betting into memecoins (a.k.a. shitcoins) and low cap gems.
Last year, I started doing DCA with my extra “not beer” money to Bitcoin and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I have accumulated the time it was around $19k to $23k range, and by the looks of it I am at least x2 of my investment.
There is no “too late” in getting to Bitcoin. If you really believe that BTC will go much higher no matter how long will it take, then “too late” should be taken out of the crypto dictionary.
