I have known about Bitcoin for a long time, I did not want to give importance to it. I thought that maybe the price of Bitcoin would go down further and I would be able to buy from the dip. But after waiting, now in 2025, I understand that maybe if I could have bought Bitcoin at that time in 2024, I would have been able to buy it for 70 thousand per Bitcoin. But as time goes by, the price of Bitcoin is increasing. Moreover, the money that I had put aside has decreased slightly due to inflation. That is why I have now been able to realize that if I buy Bitcoin and hold it, then even if the price of Bitcoin decreases, I am safe because I want to accumulate Bitcoin there for a long time. If I make a bank or any other investment, my chances of loss may increase rather than profit. But Bitcoin is now becoming more attractive than other valuable assets. If i want to keep myself in this competition, I think it is better to accumulate it without waiting any longer.
First of all you acted like a fool because dips in bitcoin market are unpredictable, many people miss their investment by waiting for the dip time. Second, you made the wrong decision because you didn't buy Bitcoin even though you had the opportunity to buy Bitcoin. A person who has money should always think that the price of Bitcoin is low in the market right now so that he is interested in buying Bitcoin immediately, this means he should never wait for a specific dip time. Waiting for the dip period means later regret for not being able to invest, as per your mentioned statement you regret now because you missed the opportunity to buy bitcoins and miss the opportunity to invest. So
maybe you still have enough time, i.e. still enough opportunity to invest in Bitcoin. Of course anyone who has a disposable income can invest into bitcoin, and if he was not able to buy yesterday, then he would need to buy today, since we cannot go back to yesterday.
There is an overwhelming quantity of the world's population that does not have any bitcoin or ONLY has small amounts of bitcoin, so surely a guy who had not invested yesterday would still be advantaged by investing into bitcoin today rather than waiting further.
By telling the part of my post that you bolded, I tried to convince him that you still have an opportunity to invest in Bitcoin ie you can start investing today, there is still an opportunity to buy and invest in Bitcoin immediately.
In fact there is no need to wait to invest in Bitcoin or buy Bitcoin if the person has the income. The longer one waits for the dip period to invest in Bitcoin, he will fall further more behind. It is completely unpredictable when the market dips, so buy bitcoin immediately if you have the money without wasting precious investment time. We have seen in the last few days that Bitcoin price was low in the market but now it is back above $100k dollar, So those will delay buying Bitcoin, meaning they will definitely regret it later if they miss any opportunity to buy Bitcoin.
This is just one of the mistake most Bitcoin investors usually do because they feels like the value of Bitcoin has gone too up and they feel cheated if they buy now, not knowing that we are still in the early days of Bitcoin, so as such, it's still very cheap comparing to how much it might get up to in the future, and just as you rightfully said, the more they wait for it to dip so that they can buy, the more the value goes up and they missed out on that buying opportunity, so it's very important that as a Bitcoin investor that has the intention of holding Bitcoin for a very long period of time, he has to buy Bitcoin continuously regardless of it current price and accumulate a very good stash of it, so that it can change his or her financial status forever when Bitcoin has gone above a million dollar in the future, not by waiting for a dip that may never come again an, which might make them miss a whole lot of buying opportunities that they would been very much beneficial if it was taken, so buying Bitcoin regardless of it current price is very much important if you really want to have a very good stash of Bitcoin in your possession.
very true, when Bitcoin was still at it's lowest. So many people refused to buy because the lacked the trust and also the habited doubts about Bitcoin, saying it doesn't look trustworthy and all that.
Then when Bitcoin began to Appreciate or increase to a point they could no longer easily afford one BTC, they excuse was that either the where now late or maybe, they should wait a little longer for it drop to a level that they could cope with.
Bitcoin hasn't started yet, to me this is just a tip of the iceberg, Bitcoin still has a long way to go.
Buying BTC now is still the smartest move you'll appreciate yourself for latter.
