Many individuals, especially newbies, usually say they are waiting for a dip, but in my opinion, they are just using it as an excuse not to start. The fact is that no one can predict the right moment for the dip, and waiting for it without investing is just a waste of time. Instead of relaxing and waiting, we should start with whatever we can afford and be consistent in our accumulation, even if it's just buying gradually with DCA.
At this point there's no excuse for procrastination, all I can say is that they should keep waiting while the numbers keep doing otherwise, maybe it would take until Bitcoin adds another $100k to it's figures before they start investing, it's even better to open up as one of the Bitcoin critics than claim to be waiting for the dip cause that excuse is an expired one, makes no sense anymore cause someone who claim they're interested and have taken their time to get basic knowledge of what Bitcoin investment is all about wouldn't hesitate to invest but jump into it ASAP, so far that discretionary fund is available regardless of how low it is.
We know that investing can be started with prudent funds and relevant and achievable goals are added there. However many of these people may have low discretionary income, but they can still think carefully and determine the amount for DCA from there. It is true that it is better to start now than to get tired of waiting for the decline and weaken your willpower, meaning that it will definitely be an optimistic and positive expression. A wise person said that after buying Bitcoin in 2014, it took three years to reach the new ATH which is now a small fraction. So even at this price, many can get excited and enjoy the new ATH which will be a small fraction even in a few years.
If anyone is waiting for when they'll increase their discretionary funds before starting then they'll miss out on lots of opportunities don't you think it's same as waiting for the dip cause I see it as waiting for the price to drop to a point that would suit their discretionary which is almost not possible asides the halving period. Instead of that why won't they invest with the little they can start with and increase their accumulation gradually when their discretionary increases. Bitcoin works with time and most people might not get this current opportunity to buy cheap if they don't invest now.
