Yes, that's right. It's better to invest than to trade, besides having low risk, it also means we don't have to bother to monitor the market every day. Trading does provide more benefits, but these benefits are also commensurate with the risks that will be faced.
Investing or trading is a choice, neither is bad and both are equally good. Everyone has their own choices and we cannot compare the risk of investment with trading. Because, both have the same risk and let them choose their own risks and we remain focused on investing.
So indeed when buying bitcoin it would be better to make it an asset for the long term because bitcoin has shown extraordinary resilience even amidst the uncertainty of global economic conditions. Just look even though other markets such as stocks and other commodities experience quite significant volatility due to the policies of a large country such as raising tariffs. However, this is different with bitcoin, bitcoin can get through this well. Although there are price fluctuations, that is the characteristic of Bitcoin that makes it increasingly proven to be a solid investment choice for the long term.
What you said is absolutely true, even during the pandemic, Bitcoin still held strong and gave an ATH price at that time. This power that Bitcoin has is what makes us all believe that BTC will become more valuable and it is never too late for us to continue adding to our portfolio even though sometimes the cycle is a little different but Bitcoin always provides good profits in the long term.
