For me in practice, I hardly have made any serious gains from Bitcoin, Yeah, apart from using it as a payment medium for jobs I do for clients. Are there other ways people like us who are late adopters benefit from Bitcoin?
Yea you can make gain or profit from bitcoin, all you need is to buy bitcoin with all investment strategy which are buying the dip and HODL, DCA strategy, and lump sum. And you must have a long term goal, not just thinking of short term investment. Although most people prefer Trading for making profit from small dip in Bitcoin price and sell when it's high, but I doubt if people really makes money from it.
