they may miss the opportunity, like some people lost it before 2020 and 2022. Many people expected the price to fall, but the price continued to increase.
I believe those that missed out the opportunity to buy in the Year 2020 have now learnt thier lesson in the following Year while those that also missed out the opportunity to invest in bitcoin in the year 2022 will now have to learn thier lesson the following Year the more the price of bitcoin is moving that's the More people are becoming wiser but those who can't learn from thier past mistake Will remain coinless in the rest of thier life.
It’s best to start now, even if it is just a small amount. We don't need to buy everything at once, you may buy a little when you have the money. It's just a matter of starting somewhere, because some people will not start at all, and the future may be more difficult. When Bitcoin becomes too expensive, we may not be able to buy it again. So, earlier is better, even if it is small, rather than waiting and regretting later.
You're right, the amount we start with does not matter, rather your consistancy towards your accumulating journey is what matters. if you're consistant in your accumulating journey the amount which you feel like is not enough for you to start with can turn into something reasonable, we are not supposed to use amount as an excuse, so Long as bitcoin investment is concern there is no amount that is too small or too big to start with.
