I definitely agree with you because you don't need to wait for a dip period to invest into Bitcoin because deley could be dangerous the best time you need to invest in Bitcoin is now so when it gets to the dip period you can actually get your return on investment

One thing we need to know that Bitcoin is that it grows in value over time so in terms of investing you don't need to wait till the price of Bitcoin gets to a million dollars before investing now is the best time to invest into Bitcoin

Delays are not dangerous, it's the ignorance and greed that are, in my opinion.
Nothing wrong with buying Bitcoin later - even if the price would differ, if you would apply hodling it appropriately, everything would still be fine.

Delay by definition is not doing what you are supposed to do at the right time. In business, most delays attract what is called demurrage which is like a penalty paid for such delays and paid by the party that caused the delay. In Bitcoin investment, delay can be liken to a situation where an investor have the money to buy Bitcoin but might still be delaying to do that thereby missing the opportunity to buy at lower prices or buying at all because something might happen and make him spend the money on things he never would have bothered to buy when there is no such funds in his hands. This is the price he paid for delays and it also confirm that for every delay in a thing, there is always a cost.

Make no mistakes, delay is not the same thing as waiting for market to correct so you you buy at the dip, this is different in every aspect you view it. Buying the dip means you are just waiting for the right time to buy at the right price and never the same thing as delay.

In other words delay still means trying to do a different thing when you know what to do and how to do it but you keep procrastinating on when to take the right steps to do it.

Or better still delay can mean not doing the right thing at the right time and this included not buying bitcoin when bitcoin is low in price due to procrastination, and since our topic of discussion mainly emphasises on bitcoin, then i will say delay in bitcoin surely mean not buying bitcoin when we ought to have bought it, and later buy it high.

Long term investor should not be bordered about what the market is looking like because at every moment where there is a missed buying opportunity the Bitcoin investor will find it difficult to recover that moment because it will e difficult to meet the market at the same price level the next moment you decides to make the decision to buy.

Surely i agree with you to an extent. although long term investors should not bother about the market and what it looks like because they have a long term goal. but not every missed opportunity is difficult to recover. surely there are times investors slacks in term of accumulating more bitcoin stash when bitcoin is low and this reduce the level or amount of bitcoin he may have held. but then this depends on how long, if this missed opportunity is just like not have been able to buy bitcoin maybe when it was around $90k and it hit $100k then there is still high chance that it may fall back to $90k where such opportunity can be utilized again, but will be problematic when an investor slacks in his strategy perhaps being wimpy not to have been accumulative since bitcoin was around $50k and hoping and or waiting for it to fall for him to buy more, then probably bitcoin hit $108k of course it will be too expensive for him and this shows that he has missed the opportunity to buy it when it was way cheaper due to procrastination. and of course such people can not be classified as a good investor rather a no coiner.
