I don't know why so many members suggest that they are agreeing with me and then substituting their idea of best for 2023 from my idea of good... and the original topic was more about whether 2024 would be better than 2023, and sure there can be a lot of reasons why 2023 was good for bitcoin and bitcoiners, and is there any need to say it was the best, unless merely comparing 2022 with 2023, so that would be a pretty short timeline, even though we also might say that 2021 was good for bitcoin and bitcoiners, but not even sure if it could be described as "the best" either, unless we merely want to suggest that BTC just keeps moving along, and even though 2017 and 2013 were better price performance years than 2021, there still likely is some value in merely having bitcoin lasting longer and longer, so by that standard, any dates that are further into the future would by definition be better than dates farther back into the past.
For me, it's not that important, but what is happening now is that there are a lot of regrets for those who often postpone purchases in 2023.Therefore, some of those who are successful in accumulating bitcoin in 2023 will consider it the best year for their investment journey in 1 last year because they were able to buy at a cheaper price when btc dropped to $16k. Some regret not buying because of their doubts and it makes them think that 2023 will not go according to their plans.
I think every year is always the best for those who continue to buy Bitcoin on a DCA basis because they continue to buy and don't care about news or bad news. That's probably why some people don't organize their initial planning carefully so they always assume that there will be a future time that will be much better than now. I think postponing it is not a good thing because doubt is certainly a regret that will haunt their minds.
