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.
That is very great of you to have build that understanding with Bitcoin along the way and with the time, all what you mentioned above are all good was to maximize Bitcoin potentials in this time and in the future, panic have been one of the major reasons why some Bitcoin holders sell their assets at loses, and for that we should build the knowledge around it to make it safer for upcoming newbie so as to be able to make something different out of the future Bitcoin holdings.
