What Bitcoin Taught Me About Patience and Risk

When I first heard about Bitcoin in 2021, I hesitated. It felt too volatile and unpredictable. I kept saying, “I’ll buy some soon.”

In 2022, I finally bought a small amount — but after a short price dip, I panicked and sold. Weeks later, the price recovered and went beyond my original entry point. That moment made me realise:

♤Bitcoin doesn’t reward panic

♤Timing the market perfectly is a myth

♤Long-term thinking beats quick emotional reactions

I’ve since started using Bitcoin more as a long-term store of value than a get-rich-quick tool.
