I came to understand that, many people jump into bitcoin investment, because they heard bitcoin investment is more profitable and less risky than trading, without knowing that as trading requires funds, and some techniques, bitcoin investment requires even more, bitcoin investment requires funds, patience, strategies, time, knowledge, understanding, emotion control and many more.
If you don't understand bitcoin you will panic and sell in looses. before investing in bitcoin it is very essential to take your time to understand the risks involved, underlying technology and market dynamics, by understanding this three factors you will invest in bitcoin without fear and panic, because fear and panic has hindered many investors from making good profits from bitcoin.
Though many will say since you have the funds you can start investing in bitcoin along the line you will start understanding and adopting to the system, but less face reality bitcoin investment is not all about how you start, is how you can be able to hold your bitcoin investment for a long period of time, because starting may not be a problem but holding may be a problem, because you are to hold bitcoin for a long period of time 4 to 10 years or more.
It is true that if we learn about Bitcoin or anything we want to invest in, then we must learn and know what we are going to invest in, otherwise, what happens is the same as gambling. Basically, I also believe that if someone understands Bitcoin, then he will feel confident to keep holding it, even if there is a decrease in its value. So the point is to learn about whatever we are going to invest in, and when you are sure and comfortable, then there will be no panic that will occur as you mentioned.
