I admire guys who have podcasts and who pull off good content on a regular basis.. It would be a lot of work.
I suggest to go for it. You will defiantly be as good as Michael J. Saylor in Podcast.
You have a lot of confidence. Of course, people have their specialities.. and Saylor is pretty damned gifted in the gab department.. Someone might call it "the gift of gab" .. ..
It is difficult to completely flesh out the circumstances, but it seems that at least Hypos 1, 2 and 4 have come to BTC with enough capital and had invested somewhat aggressively and have had a sufficient amount of time pass in their investment, so it starts to seem that they may well have enough BTC in light of their own situations at the time that they came into bitcoin. Each person has to assess, but I am describing situations in which they may well reasonably come to conclusions that they have enough BTC and they may well not need to accumulate any more BTC....
Of course there are going to be guys that do not need that many coins, especially if they might live in a lower cost of living area, or they might have expectations in which they might ONLY want to spend around $40k per year rather than $100k per year.. or whatever their monthly/annual budget might be.
Hypo-1. 300 BTC (10 years)
Hypo-2. 115 BTC (10 years)
Hypo-4. 150 BTC (5 years)
Above is just a quick summery of these 3 Hypo's and you are right in saying that they have adequate number of Bitcoins at the disposal but they are in Bitcoin for quite a while. If you spend your time with right strategy in Bitcoin then after sometimes your portfolio is like that. One has to keep that in mind.
We look at the quantity of BTC and we look at how long that they have been in, but then they may also be considering various aspects of their personal situation that include
the 9 factors.
They also may not be ready to move into something that involves sustainable withdrawal or maintenance, even though they may well consider that they have accumulated enough based on their own circumstances.
Yep.. if you are able to lump sum and/or front load your BTC investment, there are likely going to be advantages in that. The ability to supplement with DCA and buying on dips surely helps if the BTC price runs against you after you have made your lump sum buys.
I think this is key take away from what we are discussing for quite a while now i.e. Lump Sum and DCA are best combo.
Fair enough.. though I hate to take away various kinds of individualization.., and the many times that I have suggested that lump sum frequently is not really available.. .. but there could be times in which someone is investing for a while, and then he receives a bonus or maybe some kind of extra payment (income) and then all of a sudden he has a lump sum opportunity, so then what is he going to do? Perhaps consider lump sum, buying on the dips and DCA.. and so how he goes about it may well also include other things going on, including how many BTC he had already accumulated, so buying on dips can be another tool, especially for someone who has already bought a decent amount of BTC within a certain price range... so if we are striving to accumulate bitcoin, then we sometimes will want to consider buying on the dip, along side with lump sum and DCA... and various other financial management strategies that help us to conclude the extent to which we might be getting overallocated in bitcoin at any given time.
It can be very difficult to get back your principle if you lose it.. especially if you think about any of the guys Hypo 1 through 6. They had 10 and 5 years investing into bitcoin respectively, and if they lost their BTC, they may well not be able to get them back anywhere close to the prices that they bought them.
If you go 10 years back then there is massive difference in price with what we have right now. So yes if you lost those coins then you wont be able to get back to that position.
Those who investing now should keep this thing in mind that it will take years before you get into good position into Bitcoin.
Preservation of capital does become more and more important when you build up your holdings, and historically in bitcoin there have been times when the price shot up so much that some guys might not have had known how to handle the situation and/or to improve their security of their wallets and/or their storage locations in order to account for the increased value of the coins.
