As a newbie that has joined Bitcoin newly should never have the mindset of making a quick profit at the earliest stage of his Bitcoin journey than to remain focused on how he can build up his Bitcoin portfolio, because bitcoin required enough patient, time and hard working in order not to be discourage when you think you are not making a quality post like others,
Sorry for the interuption please. Because at this point it seems you are getting me confused, because if I may ask
Did you meant Bitcointalk account? (i.e feeling discourage simply because you thought you are not making quality post to get enough merits to rank up) Or
Do you mean Bitcoin in general as a decentralized digital currency? Because if you actually meant Bitcoin in general as a decentralized digital currency, then I absolutely see no reason why building a portfolio has to do with making quality posts. Because building a portfolio as regards to Bitcoin simply means the process of investing in it bit by bit, which could be either through the means of Dollar Cost Averaging method or any other. Because on the contrary, there is a huge difference between "Bitcoin" and "Bitcointalk". Because while Bitcoin is the digital currency, Bitcointalk on the other hand the online forum where discussions regarding Bitcoin is been made.
Sincerely, I had wanted to ask the same question too but you already did, and we still hope for more clarifications with his answer so we can actually know the exact contribution to make rightly.
But then, let me just chip in a bit with the ''ASSUMPTION'' that he is talking about Bitcoin generally. Going into Bitcoin accumulation or investment with the mindset of quick gains is already preparing you to failing. This is because Bitcoin investment requires 'TIME', in capital letters for the sake of emphasis. Time, I mean quality time backed with financial decisions, plus discipline and persistence. Time because Bitcoin will yield much profit in the long run(4-10+ yrs), proper financial decisions because you will be needing to make right decisions in the use of your discretionary income in funding your Bitcoin investment. You must have to be disciplined while in this process as you ensure proper allocation of resources to ensure the continuity of the accumulation process. Persistence helps you to keep pushing, even in the face of dips, you keep on accumulating with the mindset that the future is brighter with Bitcoin in your possession.
Even in am ordinary or Normal business of buying and selling let's say in the market, who starts a market today and begins to reap gains instantly? Unless you are not out for a great output and growth in that area. Great business men all over the world would tell you to invest in your business and forget about gains for at least 3-6 years as the case maybe depending on your kind of business. So any newbie with the mindset of quick gains while investing in Bitcoin is not investing rightly or with the right mindset. He should ask questions and think twice..
