Of course, everyone is at a different stage of their BTC accumulation journey, so if you have recognized bitcoin as a good investment, it could still take you years and years and years to establish your position, especially if you don't already have an investment portfolio or other places in which you can draw value in order to attempt to front-load your BTC investment.
Exactly, some people just feels that as soon as they are able to acquire some amount of Bitcoin that they are now true investors when they haven't even made any reasonable amount of it in their portfolio. Bitcoin investments is not a kind of backwards and forward investment where you will begin to relent at some point in your accumulating stages that is why it requires preparedness so that you don't even miss out in your accumulating stages and your commitment in making accumulations will determine how sizeable your portfolio will become, so for anyone who is not consistently accumulating it is going to take so many years before owning a huge portfolio and the portfolio of someone who just invested at once and the person that does continuous accumulations cannot be the same so also for someone who is making little accumulations and the other who is making huge accumulation so for the fact one own an investment in Bitcoin doesn't mean they would own huge portfolio except they act upon by making steady accumulations. Basically, anyone who have sources to front load their Bitcoin investments will actually own better portfolio faster than other that just depends on their regular accumulations.
I don't think there is any known quantity of Bitcoin that should make one a true investor, so I do not understand what you are driving at with your terminology. Remember that people financial capacity differs so what 1BTC will mean to investor A may be what 0.001BTC may mean to investor B and in the end both investors are true investors provided they invested with the intention of holding for long. In other words, as long as someone have the right mindset which is being part of Bitcoin HODLers, he is a true investor and the quantity of Bitcoin in his possession is immaterial.
We even encourage people to start with as little amount as they comfortably put in Bitcoin without panicking and from their build towards larger holding. If you want to have all the money in the world before starting investment, you will never achieve that so it is better to start small and watch how it grows and continue to add more so long as you have a bigger picture that you are committed to achieving.
Yeah you are right, some people feels that accumulating Bitcoin little by little is a waste of time so they feel saving up and buying in a lump sum is the best but one thing is that one can't have money in his or her bank account and be free from little financial problems that will eat up little of that saved money.
Some feels dey can't accumulate Bitcoin again because no matter how they accumulate it will never account to any reason Bitcoin.
People that has this mindset don't know anything about Bitcoin, they don't understand how far Bitcoin will go, now for me I know in the next 10 to 15 years Bitcoin will hit $500k to a million dollar or even more so me starting my accumulation now and continue be consistent will amount to a very good Bitcoin.
So accumulating little by little since one don't have funds for a lump sum is a very good strategy and that strategy can change your life in time to come.
Those who still don't believe in the growth of Bitcoin will regret like those that had opportunity to invest in Bitcoin 10 years ago but refused Because of there mindset.
