As I check Bitcoin's price and see that it has surged to another ALL TIME HIGH, I feel both happy and SAD.
Why?
Because the more it surges higher and higher from here, the higher possibility that we may never have the opportunity to buy Bitcoin below $100,000 again.
My next major Bitcoin purchase will be below $100,000 IF we are lucky to see it there again.
You should have regrets for waiting rather than buying, yet of course, when to wait and when to buy are personal choices.. and hopefully you were not sitting on too much cash waiting for a dip that did not end up happening.
Haha. Ser, I have ZERO regrets because my major purchase for HODLing was made when Bitcoin was still under $5,000. My post was more of making a point that having another chance of buying Bitcoin below $100,000 is a BIG opportunity, especially for those who haven't actually started their Bitcoin journey.

But again if we're lucky to see another crash below $100,000, everyone should be VERY bullish for the opportunity.

Sure it has all worked out for you, yet when you first registered on the forum in May 2016, bitcoin was right around $420, and it spent much of the remainder of 2016 between $500 and $700.. but instead, you waited to buy bitcoin until it went up to $19,666 in 2017 and then it crashed down to $3,124 in 2018, and then when it was recovering in April/May-ish of 2019, you finally decided to get started...nearly 3 years after you registered on the forum.

Even though I don't know your details, you still seem to be blinded by your own  rationalizing that it is better to buy bitcoin at 10x higher prices because you were buying on a dip.  And, I went through the numbers previously, so it is not like I need to go through the numbers again, right?
Yeah your analysis of him is spot on…. @Wind_Fury has emphasised he buys on dip, which is a good time to buy but my only concern is if he only buys the dip and it seems so as he keeps exclaiming as the price rockets. He has wasted an opportunity he could have accumulated more to the stash he has, and this is bad practice for someone who’s been that long in bitcoin, he still chooses to maintain this stand.
Sure we’re all responsible for how we manage our finances and investments, we choose what works best for us but  Sir @windFury you’ll have to adjust your mindset and strategy. If you had used that money you were holding waiting for dip to invest you would have been in more profits and happier now, it’s cos you missed that opportunity and you still have that money at hand that you feel sad now.
