A lot of people don’t talk about enough, Timing the market is a gamble, and most of the time, emotions get the best of us either FOMO or panic selling. I totally agree with you patience is key. Let the market breathe and correct. The goal is to enter smart, not fast. It's better to be late and right than early and wrong.

I totally agree to this, it's not how early an investor started but how well they understand what investing on bitcoin is all about, how patient they can be and how determined they're to reach their target, most folks who started early even made mistakes of selling after they saw pump not knowing that Bitcoin has the potential of going higher some sold out of panic during several halfing period without knowing it's an opportunity to buy more, so it's not how early but how well an investor understands Bitcoin investment.

Exactly. Without fully assimilating the cyclic nature of Bitcoin, starting early might have negligible or little impact. The study of Bitcoin halving mechanics, long-period potential and volatility is the key to true success. Holders are distinguished from impatient sellers by their patience during pumps and conviction during corrections, such as those halving dips.

Is it really about #when you started#, for sure not but how you go through each cycle wisely. How well or how deep an investor understands is greater than how early they started.

Patience is very important as long as long term investment is concerned. Investing in bitcoin for a longer term requires patience in other to be able to hold and to avoid making impulsive decisions based on market fluctuation. Just like you said timing the market is gambling and it is mostly those that are into bitcoin for short term goals that prioritise waiting for the price to dips.sometimes during bearish season most investors used to sell there bitcoin at loss.

Asides Bitcoin investment any other investment or business that wants to yield better profits in the future must require patience, it's the key to a successful investment and anyone that wants to enter the market without having patience to build their portfolio and watch it grow on the long run is wasting their time, they could only enjoy the quick profits they'll gain and miss out on better profits in the future, the market would always do it's thing and cause week hands to panic but a real investor would hold on knowing there would definitely be corrections and keep adding to their portfolio instead of selling at loss.

This means nailing the fundamental: patience cannot be compromised. Beyond Bitcoin, patience is inevitable for building wealth in any asset, including real estate, stocks, and starting a business. Some people sacrifices compounding over a long period in the pursuit of quick gains. Panic or emotional selling goes in losses and destroys future buildup.
Knowing that corrections are normal, volatility is used by disciplined investors strategically by steadily accumulating high-quality assets and undermining baseless or short-term noise. Definitely, resilience and commitment to the long game is what separates sustainable profits from fleeting wins.
Time is the ultimate gain.
