I find it very awkward that even in this day and time, most Investors are still buying only when the market is green, they buys at the top and when the market starts retrace they sell at a loss in panic, without knowing that when trading the spot market, where the profit is, is where you buy, if you buy when the price is down, their is a higher probability that you will win that trade by selling when the market is green, but if you are buying at the top when it's not Bitcoin, their is a higher probability that you may sell in a loss if the asset you bought fails to recover in an extended period of time, so the earlier most spots trader understand that buying and selling has their own time the better.

As for senior Bitcoin investors who wait for the price to drop to make purchases, I think it's perfectly reasonable for them to do so. Their Bitcoin portfolios are already quite substantial and may have already reached their Bitcoin accumulation targets. Therefore, with this in mind, DIP is not a problem for them, as their Bitcoin portfolios are already quite substantial. However, for beginners or investors with small Bitcoin portfolios, I personally strongly discourage waiting for a price drop to buy Bitcoin.
Waiting for a dip before buying is never a good way to go about your Bitcoin accumulation wether you a veteran investor or not, because by doing so you may miss a whole lot of buying opportunities, if you have gotten to that over accumulation status and you feels like their is no need for consistent investment in Bitcoin, then it's ok, but if you haven't gotten up to that level of over accumulation stage, you have no reason to wait for the dip because you will be wasting valuable opportunities to add up to your stash that has been stagnant due to waiting, so in my own opinion, waiting for the dip before buying is never a good way for any Bitcoin Investor that hasn't gotten up to that over accumulation status.

Yes, you are right. Bitcoin accumulation have become a fun topic for investors, but what we need to remember is that it may or may not fall in price, but what we should focus on is to continue accumulation. There is no doubt that Bitcoin is a store of value. Since the US election earlier this year, several ATH have been crossed or broken the price record, which indicates a positive trend in our future price. After crossing 100k during the US election, the selling price dropped to around 80k and then started to rise again. We need to be ready for every stage of Bitcoin price whether it is an upward or downward price trend. Therefore, regardless of the price we should accumulation continuously through discretionary income.
It is only traders or those that lacks knowledge about Bitcoin and it potential that will not take notice that Bitcoin is on the rise, that's why buying and accumulating Bitcoin now that it's very cheap is the ideal way to go about your Bitcoin investment plan, some Investors might think that $118k is too expensive, but that was how it seems like when it was just $100k, now $100k looks like a big bargain, so buying now regardless of it current price is the best decision an investor will ever make because in like 10 to 20 years time from now, getting Bitcoin at $500k might looks like a big steal if care is not taken, so it's best to act now that it's still pretty cheap. Chelsea must play the bus and wait for a penalty shootout 
It seems the weather will not be on their side (hotter weather would probably be to their advantage), but the rain will probably also help them defend.
PSG looks like a team without weaknesses, but who knows, maybe on Sunday there will be the same game as with Liverpool in Paris, when PSG should have won 3-0 but lost 0-1.
This PSG team isn't the type of team Chelsea should play the bus and wait for a penalty shootout because the PSG team knows how to break and penetrate their opponents defense, and if Chelsea adopts that strategy, PSG will beat Chelsea easily. Attack is the best form of defense, so I expect Chelsea to play attacking football against PSG so that all the pressure will not be on them.It seems the weather will not be on their side (hotter weather would probably be to their advantage), but the rain will probably also help them defend.

It's true that psg are in a better form than Chelsea but the way most people are talking about this game it's as if they will trash Chelsea up to ten nil , forgetting that they succeeded in trashing real Madrid because real Madrid was the one that gifted them the first two goals that kills their morals entirely in that contest, so they should take away that illusion in their head that Chelsea will make it easier for this psg side by gifting them another two goals like real madrid did.
PSG has beaten all the English teams that they have faced this past season and the next club is going to be Chelsea that they'll be facing ok Sunday. Chelsea isn't a small club and they aren't new to finals therefore I think, we'll get to see a very interesting finals but not a final that'll be full of many goals. PSG will be coming into the game to try and rush Chelsea into conceding very fast so that they can put pressure on Chelsea. Chelsea winning PSG has to do with mind games and defending excessively well because PSG are good with attacking their opponents. Chelsea has to be defensive on Sunday and take all their chances to be able to win.
If Chelsea defends more like park the bus against PSG, it'll be tough for the Champions of Europe to get a goal quickly, but if they try to play their normal game that brought them to this stage, they'll be fvcked hard in the butthole during the first 30 minutes of the game. I'm not hating, I'm not underestimating nobody, it should be a 1:0 win for PSG, possibly a 2:0. The signs are all over. Talks of Chelsea being underdogs and winning are not relevant in this game.
Or you think that Chelsea is a small team that can be trashed easily?
Just take a look at Chelsea's record in finals especially in international stage, you will understand that psg also need to be worried because Chelsea are a different animal to the type's of teams they have faced.
Additionally, this game is an open game and besides this is football, nothing is impossible, this was how Chelsea were not even given a chance against Bayern Munich in 2012 champions league final in alliance arena, but they proved everyone wrong and won, so just don't be too confident on your prediction that Chelsea is going to lose, and also take note that Chelsea also have the type of players that can hurt this psg side so badly, so don't be too confident because anything can happen.
The memecoin boom was also big in 2021. Millions were lost on these schemes and some became very rich doing it.
Prior to this we had seen similar patterns. ICOS in 2017 and the shitcoin boom in 2013 and onwards with altcoins.
Less than 2% of these survive. Historically it's been exactly the same with no exceptions. But with memecoin it lasted longer due to the extended bull market. Wait till the next best market and you'll see it dies out.
One terrible mistake most Investors make with meme coin or shit coin as we usually calls it is that they sees it as an investment, which is wrong, meme coin are meant for gambling purpose, so if you wish to gamble with it, it is best to use an amount you can afford to lose so that if things doesn't goes as planned, you wouldn't be that bothered by the losses.Prior to this we had seen similar patterns.

Till today meme are still making people millionaires, and it's also wrecking investors financially, so it's an asset that should be treated as gambling, not a real asset like Bitcoin.
Funny enough those who've been waiting for the right time, procrastinating or waiting for the dip would begin to rush into the market, some would even buy with funds that's not discretionary, take loans to buy or even spend all that got just to buy now that the market is pumping cause of FOMO, such situation would've been avoided if they took their time to prepare before now and did the right things so situations like this won't cause FOMO and force them to invest the wrong way.
Buy Buy buy is not just a slogan for every true Bitcoin investor, it should be a lifestyle most especially for those who recently started. And for the procrastinator and buy dip advocates, those that want Bitcoin yo drop drastically before they find it right to invest on it, I hope they're taking note of the market, retrace their steps and join the buy buy buy movement and hodl for as long as possible.
Such people clearly misunderstand the concept of investment and don't fully grasp Bitcoin's potential. Their only concern is how to make a significant profit in a short time. I believe most investors who wait for Bitcoin's price to drop and then buy have this mindset. However, this is an incorrect mindset, as investing in Bitcoin, when we talk about potential, is certainly different from other investment assets like stocks or other assets. Bitcoin has the potential to continue to rise in price, as its limited supply of coins will cause its price to soar. Furthermore, Bitcoin's security has been proven to be excellent, making it arguably the king of digital assets today. The factors that will drive Bitcoin's price to rise are due to the changing times. Bitcoin is a digital asset, and it aligns with the modern era. Most importantly, Bitcoin is an excellent store of value. Therefore, many people will be interested in and invest in Bitcoin. Therefore, its price will likely continue to rise.Buy Buy buy is not just a slogan for every true Bitcoin investor, it should be a lifestyle most especially for those who recently started.

Real Madrid didn't even get the ball In the first half not to talk of pressing. Is it not when you have the ball that you will press and PSG totally denied them that in the first half. Go back and watch the game again, Real Madrid had less that 100 completed passes in the entire first half, how would a team have pressed with that kind of nonsense stats?
Lol. What have you just typed?! You've just shown you're just yet another poster with little or zero football knowledge. You're typical example of poster who listen to 92.3FM to get insight on how to post. You can press your opponents with the ball and also without the ball. I can write a full page and you may never get to comprehend whatever I'm saying. I don't just watch football but also play, so take it from me when I tell you.
Noni Madueke has signed for Arsenal. Fee agreed in excess of £50m with add-ons included, green light from Chelsea.
Madueke already agreed five year deal at Arsenal days ago and he’s now set to complete the move.
The gunners are very active in the windows. Truly Mikel Arteta said he wants all the players to available in the pre season training.
https://x.com/FabrizioRomano/status/1943422099802198167
Arsenal are very active to get in players that Chelsea have no use for, if Arteta have planned for a better team I don't see why he should be celebrating at getting a players that lack confidence in himself and the Gunners don't know what good they have done to keep such player of the Chelsea first eleven and even on the driver's seat. To me I think the Gunners are not serious because if they do they would happen gone for a better winger like Rodrygo but it seems they only want weak materials.
But then, if you are talking about the ability of madueke on the wings, I can confidently tell you that he is a better winger that Rodrygo, Rodrygo flourish more in the middle than in the wing, and a pure winger is what Mikel arteta is looking for.
Then as for the striker position, that is where they are seriously in need the most, I don't know how close their chase of Gyokeres is, but the earlier they sign him the better, or if they feel that he is overpriced, they should go for someone else than wasting all their time on a single player.
It's a depressing state of affairs at United. Are they trying to sell those on loan first who don't fit into Amorim's plans (Rashford, Anthony)? But there are 5 weeks left until the start of the season and even if United suddenly make a chain of deals, how will Amorim have time to prepare the team for the season (even though the whole of last season was sacrificed for this haha)? At the moment it looks like United have nothing to hope for. Even getting into the European cups would be a success.
Yes, the Premier League season will restart in just over a month, so Manchester United should have everything they need by now, including any new players they might need to bring in. But in reality, Manchester United hasn't made many changes to their squad, only bringing in a few players so far. Furthermore, Manchester United hasn't made any moves regarding player sales. Manchester United should act quickly and not waste too much time. If Manchester United continues like this, I think they'll be in a very difficult situation. At this point, Manchester United really doesn't seem to have a well-organized preparation. If Manchester United had a well-organized plan, I think they would have made significant improvements.But strangely, Manchester United still seems relaxed, as if they have no problems. In fact, they are currently facing quite a big problem. If their performance continues to be poor next season, I think they will return to being a bottom-tier team. Even if Manchester United's team performance were much worse, I think they could be relegated next season. So, looking at that, Manchester United's problems are truly serious right now. They need to realize this now and start preparing better if they want to compete well again next season.
The only person am feeling pity for is Ruben Amorin because he left a sporting Lisbon team that gives him peace of mind to a team that has taken away his peace since he moves to the club, and let's not be surprised if he is sacked next season when things has started going ugly.
I'm not so sure that Rodrygo will stay at Real Madrid because until now, under Xabi Alonso's management he barely played, and next year there is the World Cup. Of course Ancelotti has a high opinion of Rodrygo and he knows him very well but he must play otherwise he may not be called. The problem is that Rodrygo is a good player but not a star, he's kept in very high consideration because he is Brazilian and plays for Real Madrid, so he gets overestimated. I have no idea how much money Real Madrid could ask for him but I'm pretty sure it would be way more than 100 million euros and, I don't know about you guys but I would never spend that amount of money for a player like Rodrygo.
Why not? Rodrygo is underrated. His market value is 100 Million Euros and his salary in Real Madrid is 12 Million Euros annually, with his performance, it's a good deal. There are many players having higher salary but not as good as Rodrygo.
But, not many teams can afford such amount, high likely Premier League teams would sign him, probably Arsenal or Aston Villa.
Looking at the speculation surrounding his future, right now no top team in Europe are serious in acquiring him, so by the look of things, if he has finally makes his mind to move, he must take a pay cut to remain in Europe or Saudi Arabia is his potential destination.
Unfortunately, i didn’t watch the match . I only checked the results afterward...I still can’t believe that Real didn’t manage to score at least one goal. I understand that PSG is a very strong team right now, but i didn’t expect them to beat Real like that.In my opinion, the final should be routine and without much struggle for PSG. I don’t want to underestimate Chelsea, but PSG is playing magical football this season.
You just missed seeing one of the most extraordinary semifinal braces. PSG is was really nice. Literally, they smashed the Real Madrid team very nastily. Bro, 4-0 🥴 🤣 this sounds humiliating.... I never expected this from the PSG side, but honestly, they banged the entire team.Yes it's true that real madrid was hammered, but it was their own doing that cost them, their defense was a shambles that day, and we shouldn't expect Chelsea to look psg and fear them because this Chelsea team are a different animal altogether.
Re: The regret of early Investors or the regret you get for procrastinating
Most times as humans we feel more regret for the action we didn't take than the ones we took.
If you think it's a natural occurrence, why do most people still dont take good use of the opportunity when it comes again to them?
You may be right but I dont agree with you. Every man or woman can actually feel regrets because they mixed a good opportunity, the same person is expected to grab the opportunity if another chance is giving, but few people wont, the question is why? It simply shows that we humans are very good at procrastinating a lot, only few people are willing to take bold steps.
Am saying this because their was an opportunity I miss when I was a teenager, though it's not about money, but I still feels the regret of not taking the risk up till now.
Additionally I have also heard of peoples story and their regret, that is why I came with the conclusion that we feel more regret for the actions we didn't take, than the ones we took.
If an investor is strictly investing in bitcoin with his discretionary income, he is free to invest in bitcoin with all his discretionary income if he chooses to do that,
No, I don't think it's a good idea to invest all of your discretionary income because their are so many things we spend money on that are not part of our basic needs, but are very important, so like 60% is ok, anything more than that might put you into a difficult state in sorting out those expense that is not part of our basic needs. Quote
Any financial crisis that happens after you have paid for your monthly expenses should be treated as an emergency because you don't plan for it,
No I disagree with this statement here, when we are talking of emergencies, we are talking about real life emergency situation that threatens your holdings, not minor expenses that can be sorted out with our reserves funds or a fraction of our discretionary income, that's why it's not good to invest with all your discretionary income so that you wouldn't have to act in such a manner at a point. I think that there are a lot of us here, who are active in this thread, who consider buying on dip to be inferior to DCA and also problematic for newbies to get overly caught up about BTRC price rather than just ongoingly buying bitcoin regularly, persistently, consistently and perhaps even aggressively, which is quite a bit more difficult to accomplish with a buying a dip strategy, unless the buying the dip strategy merely supplements the DCA and/or even lump sum buying approach.
Even buying the dip strategy isn’t so easily overcomes especially for those that are new into Bitcoin. You tend to face 2 type of challenges which are,1. Knowing that this is the dip and price wouldn’t further dip from this point
2. Having faith in Bitcoin to go up as it usually does (you often find newbies in Bitcoin fighting within themselves speculatively).
That’s why, the ‘I don’t care’ what the price is which is usually the attitude about the DCA strategy always works best and is usually achieved rather easily. In fact in a way, it keeps your greed in check because, you look forward to a long term goal rather than short term.
Yesterday I was almost sure of the result, congratulations to Fluminense who behaved like a great opponent, they were really good and behaved like true sportsmen, but Chelsea was really a much stronger team, and as I told you the final will be all about Europe.
The result was completely expected. Although Fluminense played well and qualified for the semi-finals, it is still difficult for Fluminense when they face a strong club from the Europa League in an important match like the semi-finals. Fluminense was a really good team and they deserved to win against Chelsea. But Fluminense is less capable of withstanding the pressure of a big match than Chelsea. Chelsea is much better at withstanding pressure and winning important matches. Even after losing yesterday, I will not forget to give credit to Fluminense. Because they played well in the tournament and they showed their strength in the last match.Why would you be saying that fluminense deserves to win the game, check the statistics of the match, the ball possession, numbers of Conner kicks shot on target and short off target Chelsea dominated them all round, they were just lucky that the high temperature in the Us is not what most of this top European side are used to, if not they would have concede more goals and they wouldn't have gone this far, yes it's true that Chelsea defense was quite good on the day, but the attacking players of fluminense did very little to threatens them that much comparing to the constant pressure their own defense went through, so their is no way you should be saying that fluminense deserves to win in this game.
Then talking about the game yesterday, as expected Chelsea were just too strong for them, and if not for the masterclass of Thiago Silva and the wastefulness of Nicolas Jackson they would have gotten up to four goals in the game.
Then as for the new guy Joao Pedro, that guy is good, this is the type of attacker Chelsea have been craving for a very long time, not someone as wasteful as Nicholas Jackson.
Re: The regret of early Investors or the regret you get for procrastinating
I got to know BTC in 2017 and obviously, like almost everyone else, I wish I had gotten to know it and invested earlier, in 2011 or 2013 who knows
But even when I did, I couldn't understand 100% what Bitcoin was and my first satoshis were bought with a lot of fear of losing money
I bought something around 20 USD the first time and I was afraid it would devalue and I would lose money. At the time, that was a significant amount for me
In my case, it wasn't even a question of procrastination, but rather my process of understanding BTC, getting some experience and then investing more and better
You are actually not alone in this bro, though I heard of Bitcoin in 2011 when I was still in high school, but I payed no attention to it because I thought that it's one of those ponzi scheme out there, in 2016 I got the opportunity to invest in it through a friend that works in the same company with me, but I refused to take the risk because I still sees it at a ponzi scheme, and that was after MMM has scam my fellow nationals of the money they invested, so when the opportunity came, and I wasn't given a proper explanation on how it works, to me it was another way to get at us, another ponzi scheme in disguise 🤣 🤣 🤣 so I stay off completely till 2020 that I got a clear understanding on how it works when I started the forex market. But even when I did, I couldn't understand 100% what Bitcoin was and my first satoshis were bought with a lot of fear of losing money

Truly knowledge is power.
Yes.. Sure. I have largely been proclaiming that it is up to each one of us to determine how aggressive or whimpy that we want to be within our budget, and even within an attempt to follow a more straight-forward DCA'ing approach guys are able to figure out their level of aggressiveness within such DCAing approach.
So there could be situations to compare guys who largely have similar levels of discretionary income.. let's say $200 per week.
1) a guy might choose to invest fairly aggressively and consistently at $180 per week (90%) into BTC.
2) a second guy might choose to invest fairly whimpily and consistently at $20 per week (10%) into BTC.
3) a third guy might choose to vary his investment between whimpy and aggressive , so maybe minimally he is investing $20 per week no matter what, but some weeks he might invest up to $180 into bitcoin depending on other things going on in his life.
These allocation styles are somewhat personal choices, and they may relate to other kinds of things going on in their lives.. and perhaps even how much they prioritize bitcoin over the other things going on in their lives. Each of these guys are likely going to do better 10 years down the road as compared with the guy who did not accumulate any bitcoin.
Not waiting for the dip or not investing is the biggest risk. Small investments in a consistent manner can give us real results at some point. Fall is in everything, so the most important thing for the newbie is to start now and invest regularly without stopping it in this mindset. Excessive caution will often become an additional risk. Small investments at a time, keeping up with time, risk-taking mentality, and being patient for the right time can bring success. It is impossible to determine the right time for the market. If we dip in the form of DCA, we can get our assets as real assets in the future.So there could be situations to compare guys who largely have similar levels of discretionary income.. let's say $200 per week.

I feel like we are very lucky to be in the era when Bitcoin is still pretty cheap, because in years to come, the current value of Bitcoin might be a bargain.
I posted an op post yesterday on the Bitcoin board where an investor was feeling regretful for not investing in Bitcoin when he had the chance,The regret of early Investors or the regret you get for procrastinating so not investing or taking action when we should, comes with the biggest regret, than the ones we took.
He'll make a good upgrade to Madrid's midfield but I don't think they'll convince PSG enough to sign him, not at this point, Vitinha is one of PSG's powerhouse so I don't think they'll allow one of their major Champions League rival to get him, PSG gave already lost a world class player in person of Kylian Mbappé to Real Madrid they can't afford giving them another quality player, can Camavinga do what Vitinha is doing if he joins PSG? The right answer is NO.
This is just speculation as far as am concern because their is no possibility of vitinha moving to real madrid considering the sour relationship that exist between psg and real madrid due to Kyler mbape moving to real madrid, but if Madrid press harder, the only thing they will be successfully in doing, is to get into the head of the player, but that will not be enough for psg to let him go because he still has few more years in his contract unlike Kyler mbape that was having one year left on his contract then.So instead of real madrid to waste that valuable time on vitinha, they should use that opportunity to go for someone else that can replace Toni Kross in the heart of this real Madrid team, because his absence is the major cause of their struggling especially against a ball playing team.
