Personally, I consider it to be not very helpful to be focused on profits, even though we might well presume that our odds of being in profits will be quite good after 4-10 years or more... but at the same time, our focus should be on ongoingly growing our BTC stash.. sure no problem to buy dips from time to time if we think that we are able to do that within reason, yet the more important part if just realizing that we continue to have little to no clue regarding short-to-medium term BTC price movements and we should largely be ongoingly accumulating bitcoin rather than trying to figure out whether or not there might be a dip, unless some kind of impending dip seems obvious and it is not going to distract us from our accumulation to merely wait a few days or some reasonably short period of time, and hopefully we are not delaying investing by several weeks, if we had been tending to be in the habit of buying bitcoin every week.
There is every tendency that anyone who is investing in Bitcoin with the mindset of profit making will definitely not go far in his or her investment because they will sell of their investment whenever they see a little profit due to market value appreciation,I don't agree with this. Every investor wants to profit you can't say expecting to take profit automatically means someone won’t go far. The real problem is not taking profit but how they want to take the Proft. Some folks are ready for quick gains and yeah, they will surely miss out for the big profit if they have left it for long term. Since we all understand Bitcoin is a long-term game the real benefit of Bitcoin is investing reveals itself after holding for 6 to years. That is where the real-life changing profit are.
No investor will want to invest without the mindset of a getting a profit at the end, if the reverse is the case what is the essence of investing. Of course, some folks will claim they are buying Bitcoin as a store of value, deep down we all know they want profit too. But hey, whatever is the reason why we choosing to invest into Bitcoin we should understand that impatience will trigger us to take quick gains. Patience for long term is vital.
Its bad generalization for that matters since who doesn't like to get profit? Investor aims to get that but the difference is traders usually end up dumping their Bitcoin early, but long term holders usually sell later on and they are just happy to see that the market is pumping. Bitcoin is really intended or good for long term and unfortunately that there are still people caught up with the hype about short term richest that's why they fall on trap and earn bad faith for deciding to sell their Bitcoins.
No investors would not think about profit since what's the point of being here if we didn't aim that right? Its just common for long term holder to have long patience and they didn't think everything easy since most of experience holders know that there are better future and what we called good time to take their profit especially if they hit their target long term time line which usually last 5 - 10 years.
