In addition to my earlier post, the OP seems to have given up on this account Paddy man account because he received a neutral tag for being an AI spammer. The story he gave in the OP about slowing selling his Bitcoin was total nonsense but he had no incentive to stop because of the sheer number of posts sympathising with him.

The members of this forum have to take responsibility for their part in the number of accounts farms there are here. Instead of being sceptical of newbies boasts they applaud and encourage them because many of they themselves find it a convenient excuse to add to their signature campaign post count.

I have seen these sorts of threads created by newbies before. It is usually created to be part of a larger account farm with the ultimate goal to participate in signature campaigns (and eventually infiltrate DT).

The manner in which the OP created the thread seems to have the hallmarks of more than meets the eye. He was seeking attention by creating a pointless thread and now he has the attention he wanted.

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.
