OP, having maximum Bitcoin never guarantees you that you'll end up with the most efficient returns but it supports the newbies with reliability that they won't end up in a rug pull.
Yes, but investing has never been about having the most returns anyway; it's making bets with great risk:reward profiles.
The interesting thing is that Bitcoin has already reached a certain level from which x2 or x3 will take a much longer time. If we take this into consideration, is it not, then, worth it to risk on altcoins today more than the previous years? The catch, however, is that it was much easier back then to make gains from altcoins. Today, it's much harder.
I also used to risk on altcoins. I've made money. I've made Sats. But I think I would have been more profitable had I focused only on Bitcoin. I was into it when Bitcoin still had so much potential in terms of price growth. I got the wrong timing. I lacked foresight, just like many of us, and failed to concentrate on it while it was still so cheap.
While hitting that x100 prospect today is like looking for a needle in a haystack, since Bitcoin can hardly even double, will it be a reasonable venture? Today, I'm lazier in terms of altcoin hunting. I'm also a little bit contented of what I've reached so far. It seems I'm already good adding a few more Sats every now and then.
Yep. People were totally underestimating how hard it is to pick the right altcoins back then, and it is even significantly harder now.
The problem with most people is they want to just get rich off bitcoin/crypto. Whereas the best thing to do for most people is to just have a normal job/business and use the earnings to stack bitcoin to boost their wealth.
