The best time for buying is at low price and I think if you sell your coins with profit then you should not regret after Fluctuations in coin price because you have already taken your profit so ready to make another step instead of regret about past.

If you are in doubt about other coin then just buy bitcoin now and don't sell until you achieved your target. This time is not suitable for selling but if someone is in huge profit and he cannot hold longer then selling should be preferred. Understand the market and accept your profit but I think if someone is selling their bitcoin without waiting more so he will miss the opportunity of having huge profit in Bull season.
for me the time you buy doesn't really matters but when you sell, if you have a plan of selling when the value is higher then no matter what you spent during your purchase you are sure of making some profit because you already have a plan and you are committed to this plan not minding what the prevailing circumstances are, and then when it is convenient for you then you carryout your transactions, perhaps this is where the long term approach comes in.


It's actually not about when to buy or when to sell it about why you buy it. If your main goal to make money only I suggest you avoid BTC now. buy if your main goal is to secure your fund then you are welcome.

When i first brought Bitcoin i didn't think about investment instead I was thinking "After all the hard work, I finally own a piece of Bitcoin." From the very beginning when i start earning I was thinking of a way to secure my fund that will not be control by third party. And thats how i come to know about bitcoin. Now maximum people buy btc for gaining profit some win, some lose But those who truly understand Bitcoin neither win nor lose, they simply achieve freedom.

Insted of buy and hold btc for 2 or 5 year I suggest people buy btc for financial freedom.
Your words have nothing to do with reality. In real life, such a mind-boggling imagination does not work. Bitcoin is decentralized and there is no third party interference. This is the feature of Bitcoin. Due to which the popularity of Bitcoin has increased, but these are not the purpose of Bitcoin. All those who invest in Bitcoin invest for profit. You bought Bitcoin to protect your wealth. If you wanted, you could have bought gold and kept it safe, and no one would have interfered there. Everyone else could have done this, who wants freedom of their own wealth like you. But why do they invest in Bitcoin? Because if you invest in Bitcoin properly for a long time, you will get more profit than any other type of investment. We can see this from past statistics.

Bitcoin is a means of security for a person and his family in the future. If anyone follow DCA and invest regularly with discretionary income, and can continue to invest. If that time lasts more than 4 to 10 years, then his deposited Bitcoins will become a very big asset in the future. So Bitcoin does not just give freedom. Bitcoin gives people security for their future.
If you look at the information below, you can see that Bitcoin is much more profitable than any other type of investment. Where once the whole world depended on gold, even today many people convert their wealth into gold. Those who have held Bitcoin for a long time have given many times more profit than gold.

I had said earlier in my post that Israel wants to destabilize not only Palestine but the entire Middle East and take control of it. And the USA is the one behind this. Today they have completely destroyed the entire Gaza city. Now they have launched an attack on various countries in the Middle East. So that a war takes place, various economic and political problems are created in that country. People are harmed. And with this aim, America wants to take the entire area of ​​Israel in the Middle East under their control and they can take oil and other valuable resources from there to develop their economy. As a result, they have attacked the leader of Hamas in Doha, Qatar. They have no right to attack another country for their interests. This threatens the sovereignty of a country. They have been talking about this Hamas attack for so many years and have killed  many of innocent Palestinians. Now they will do the same with Qatar and other countries and will take it to a war level. And the USA will help there.

The Journey of bitcoin investment is not a one way ticket, it involves a continuous process and this involves STUDYING to know more about bitcoin and it’s technicalities,  LEARNING new ways of investing (improving on the initial knowledge you started on), You PRACTICE (that’s investing) what you’ve learnt, practice is the only way you know for sure if you have the right knowledge and strategies or not, You PLAN your Finances and make out enough discretionary for your investment purposes (creation of emergency and reserve funds, percentage of discretionary money that goes into bitcoin), from time to time you check out how well you’ve accumulated and what you can improve about your strategy you RE-STRATEGISE if need be and that’s how you grow in this space, and at the end you must have known by experience what works best for you. As you increase and grow in your accumulation, you adapt new strategies, how a newbie is investing isn’t same as an oldie who’s almost close to his over accumulation.
I hope this is more clearer to your understanding.

People like you are the ones that makes it difficult for newbies to kickstart their investment. You have paint investing of Bitcoin to be one difficult and impossible thing to do. You dont need to know the practical and technical part of Bitcoin before you can start investing. From the basic things I have know, it didn't take me long to start buying and now I am doing god with my accumulation. The technical part of Bitcoin are meant for miners, developers and other individual who wish to expand their knowledge. As an actual investor, what you need to know is how to buy, how to secure your Bitcoin with the right wallet, how to keep your seed phrase safe. Keeping it away from scammers and online theft.


You don't need to be an explorer of being technically knowledgeable about bitcoin before you can catch it tons of being successful in the investment. You just need to understand that it is not a get rich quick, understand risk management, storing your assets in a safety of more advanced security such as hardware wallets since you will be holding for the long term and then, picture an accumulating strategy through your discretionary incomes and keep buying as much you can afford not to panic when price is going down but Instead you buy at the Dip and hodl.  So it is not compulsory even if necessary that you should the technical aspects of it.
The technical subject of Bitcoin is very extensive and it takes a lot of time to learn about it, and investing in Bitcoin does not require such deep knowledge. If someone wants to invest after learning about Bitcoin's technical aspects and other topics, then he will waste a lot of time and will miss many good investment opportunities. As a result, if the person who wants to invest only knows the basic aspects of BTC and has an idea about the right investment method including security, then he will be able to invest in Bitcoin correctly and the chances of success are very high.

And you said another thing, that is buy DIP and hold. Actually, I do not agree with your words. The best way to invest regularly by following the DCA method than buy Bitcoin at DIP. It is not bad to buy Bitcoin at DIP  it can yield several times more profit .But  Many people do not invest in the hope of buying it when the price of Bitcoin drops, but it turns out that the price of Bitcoin continues to increase, as a result of which they miss the opportunity to invest.  On the other hand sometime price of Bitcoin has decreased relatively. At that time, someone invested, but later it turned out that the price of Bitcoin has decreased much more, as a result, they missed the opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a relatively lower price. Therefore, we should follow the DCA method and invest with discretionary income. As a result, there is no need to worry about whether the price is low or high. If you invest for 4 to 10 years, there is a high possibility of getting a lot of profit.

That being said, trying to concentrate solely on Bitcoin does carry a degree of risk, and having a smaller portion in other reliable assets can provide an added layer of safety. The big lesson here is to invest consistently, be patient and don't fret over short term price movements.
Dareo I don’t understand this advice or suggestion you’re trying to make here, Are you hinting on investing in Altcoins and shitcoins as a way of providing safety to your bitcoin investments?. Concentrating solely on bitcoin isn’t such a bad thing and the risk is still minimal at worst so Long as it’s a long term investment. You make it sound like bitcoin investment can’t stand on its own and needs other investments to balance it and this idea is totally wrong, you don’t need any additional investments to act as your safety net while investing in bitcoin so long as you’re doing it right ,and if you’ve been following this thread you’ll know how best to go about your bitcoin investments.

I'm with you, because Bitcoin may not be as risky as you think it is to invest in because its value can increase drastically even two hours after you invest, then will you sell? That will not be a big gain for you because the value of Bitcoin which may be higher than we fear in the future, so it is very important to keep your long-term perspective when investing.
You gave an example of Bitcoin's price increasing or decreasing just two hours after investing in Bitcoin. and you also said that  better to invest for a long time. In fact, for those who consider investing for two hours as a short-term investment, a long-term investment would be maybe 1 or 2 months for them . If you follow the example of short-term or long-term investment for 1 or 2 hours, then people will be in a dilemma about the actual time period of long-term or short-term investment. If someone continues to invest for less than 4 years, we call it short-term investment. Investing in Bitcoin for at least 4 to 10 years or more is called long-term investment. If you invest for 4 to 10 years with regular discretionary income and follow DCA, then you can get proper profit from Bitcoin.

It's unwise to invest in Bitcoin with our savings because that's not the right way to go about Bitcoin investment and any investor who indulge in such practice won't last long in Bitcoin investment since there's a big possibility we will use the money meant for our expenses to invest in Bitcoin, and when it's time for us to solve our expenses, we won't have enough money to take care of our expenses and we will completely depend on our Bitcoin investment to sort ourselves out. It's always wise we invest in Bitcoin with our discretionary income so that we will always be fit to solve our expenses, and it will help us to remain in the game for a very long time.

I agree with you but Investing with discretionary income won't help us to be fit to solve our problem and if I may ask what problem are you talking about? Do you mean financial problem? If you are referring to financial problem then our discretionary won't or can not help us to solve it because our discretionary is only meant for buying or accumulating Bitcoin in order to grow our portfolio. What will help us as an investor to be fit to solve problems is our emergency funds, because after discretionary funds comes emergency funds because that is what we need to offset any problem that will rise or come up and so it is very necessary for an Investor to always have an emergency funds and not just an emergency funds but a good one.
You seem to think that discretionary income and emergency funds are widely different, you emergency funds comes from your discretionary income the same way your investment comes from it as well, discretionary income isn't necessarily meant only for investment, the amount of discretionary income you decide to use to invest depends on how aggressively you want to buy bitcoin and after investing you can always put what's left from your discretionary income into your emergency funds, this is because an emergency fund isn't a part of your daily, weekly or monthly necessity, so you can only save for emergencies after you have taken care of what's necessary and once you have taken care of what's necessary you are left with your discretionary income which you then split between investing in bitcoin and saving up for emergency. Also, you don't save up for emergency indefinitely, after saving up for a few months worth of emergency funds you can decide to put the rest of your discretionary income into building up your portfolio and you can rise from investing on a medium level to becoming an aggressive investor, you should know that buying aggressively doesn't necessarily depend on how big your investment is compared to what others are investing but how big your investment is compared to your total discretionary income so the more of your discretionary income you invest in bitcoin the more aggressively you are buying bitcoin.
It seems that you have not explained your fund management and investment process in a clear manner. If someone's discretionary income is $400, then if he wants, he can invest $200 in Bitcoin. And in addition, he spends $100 from that discretionary income on social and entertainment activities. And after that, he will form an emergency fund with the remaining $100. When the emergency fund for 3 to 6 months of expenses is completed, he can invest the extra money in Bitcoin if he wants. Or he can form a reserve fund with that. This seems to me to be the easiest way to invest. If you explain the investment process in a simple way, then there will be no misunderstanding.

Your monthly income depends on a specific period of time. Even if your monthly income is low, if you can create a budget from there, you can plan your investment. Even if your income is low, investing in stages will yield good results. Whether your income is low or high, you must have an interest in investing. You can invest if you understand your income and spend it wisely. The price of Bitcoin always fluctuates. People are hired with the hope of profit.
Investing in Bitcoin does not depend on income. If someone wants to invest in Bitcoin properly, there are some things that must be in it. He must have a basic understanding of Bitcoin, he must have desire and patience, and he must have discretionary income. Let's say a person's income is very high but after his own and family's expenses, he does not have much money left. This means that he does not have discretionary income, so it would not be right for him to invest in Bitcoin. On the other hand, if a person earns very little money but it turns out that after spending all his expenses, he has some money left at the end of the day, then he can invest with that money. Whether the discretionary income can be more or less will depend on the person's income and expenses. If it is less, he will invest with a small amount of money following DCA and if it is more, he will start investing with more money according to his position. However, he must invest with discretionary income. This will allow him to continue his investment activities for a long time and the possibility of making profits in the future will be much higher.

Over time now, I've got to learn on so many things regarding investment, we should not be influenced by our decision base on what others are doing , instead we should sit more tight to discover on how we could also adopt a strategy that may best fit in for our investment and then work on it until we made it a reality, many have been so entangled by what others are doing and they don't seem to understand what is ahead of them or expected of them to do at some point while investing.

That is why before we can invest, we have to learn more and more, understand the nature of the markets and have the ability to hold and make right decisions that could contribute more to our interest than being on losses, we may think all these don't count, but at last, they do, since the decisions made by us today will always be a reflection of what we see tomorrow, because there is no magic in what we do, but we have to be intended for making the right choice investing.
If someone wants to invest, then it is imperative that they have an idea about Bitcoin. But don't take too much time to gain this knowledge. Because the content of Bitcoin is very vast. There is no end to learning here. With time, new things are coming, people are researching and working on them. So if you spend too much time learning all this, then many more opportunities to invest in Bitcoin will be missed. You must have a basic idea about Bitcoin and its security.

You have talked about understanding the nature of the Bitcoin market, in fact, no one can say exactly when the price of Bitcoin will increase or decrease and how much it will decrease. However, after a long time, the price of Bitcoin has increased many times, we can understand this by looking at the statistics of the past. And it is clear to us that if one can hold Bitcoin for a long time, he can get a lot of profit from Bitcoin. The easiest way to invest in Bitcoin for a long time is to follow the DCA and invest with discretionary income. In addition, if create an emergency fund reserve fund, that can solve any strategic problem without having to sell Bitcoin... In fact, instead of using Bitcoin as trading or gambling, we should see it as a means of future security for ourselves and our families.

If a person has a reasonable source of income and is willing to invest, then he should never delay investing. It is best to start investing first. You can do everything after investing. If you want to learn everything beforehand, then it will be too late to invest, it will never be the right decision. You have to start investing first and then you can learn a lot.
I don't think an investor needs a reasonable source of income to start investing in bitcoin, what an investor needs in other to start investing consistently is a discretionary funds, because their are so many folks out there that are earning quite a lot of money or a reasonable source of income as you claim that still can't invest in bitcoin because they they can't sorts out their discretionary funds, so in my own opinion, what a newbies investor needs in other to start investing in bitcoin is discretionary funds and the basic knowledge on Bitcoin and how to go about your Bitcoin investment.
If a person does not have any source of income, how will his discretionary fund be created? If someone wants to invest in Bitcoin, then he must first have an income source. After that, he must have discretionary income. Which will survive after all the expenses of his family. He will invest with that extra money. If someone does not have income, then he will not have a discretionary fund and if he does not have it, it will not be right for him to invest. Without discretionary income, if you use your own needed money or borrow money from somewhere and invest in Bitcoin, it will be trading or gambling. If you invest in Bitcoin and continue to invest for a long time without selling Bitcoin, then it is possible to get a lot of profit.

Of course, each of us is responsible for our own level of aggressiveness, and we should not let pressure from online or groups affect our choices in that there is nothing wrong with being aggressive as long as we do not end up overdoing it.  If we overdo it, then we have to suffer the consequences, and it might be 10 years down the road that we realize that we cannot turn back the clock an hopefully we did what we were able to do without overdoing it and taking ourselves out of the game due to our own overly aggressive screw up(s).
if I may ask, how does someone really decide where to draw the line between being aggressive enough to see good gains and being too aggressive to the point it turns risky?
one thing you should understand is that there is nothing like been "aggressive enough to see good gains" when it comes to long term holding of bitcoin, just be consistence in buying bitcoin with your discretionary income you will reach your accumulating target and then hold it for 4 to 10 years or longer. Been "too aggressive to the point it turn risky" is when you start accumulating bitcoin with the funds made for handling your basic needs and expenses or when you start buying bitcoin with your emergency fund after you must have exusted your back up all the name of buying the dips, so no matter aggressive you want don't overdo it just as JJG had said earlier only buy bitcoin aggressively within your level don't go above your level.
Aggressive buying in Bitcoin accumulation is when you exceed your regular amount for buying Bitcoin in your DCA strategy. The rate of aggressiveness depends on the amount that you can be able to top up your DCA buying and this is where investors that doesn't understand financial management gets it wrong. In aggressive buying investors need to be smart, they should know if they can afford to buy aggressively, if it will affect their planned budget for their other expenses it is better to stick to their regular DCA accumulation. But if they can pull funds from their other expenses to buy the dip without affecting them negatively then it's a smart move.
Investors doesn't need to "exceed their regular amount for buying Bitcoin in their DCA strategy before they could be seen as investors who are buying aggressively. If you are consistent and persistent in accumulating Bitcoin and even if you don't exceed your regular amount for buying Bitcoin in your DCA strategy, you are accumulating Bitcoin aggressively because you are always active in accumulating Bitcoin, and you can never be compared to investors who aren't consistent and persistent in accumulating Bitcoin. The concept of aggressive buy in Bitcoin investment is all about accumulating Bitcoin consistently and persistent, so if you are accumulating Bitcoin with $5 every week, you are aggressively investing in Bitcoin because that is your own level of aggressively. It's when you increase your regular $5 for buying Bitcoin to $10; that's when you are being over aggressive, and it will take you out of the game if you don't stop it early.
I don't understand what you mean by aggressive investing. Actually, what I mean by aggressive investing is that if someone is investing more than 70% of their discretionary income, then they can be called aggressive investors. And if someone is investing 90% or more of their discretionary income, they can be called over-aggressive investors. Now, who is investing aggressively will depend on their income. So it is a personal decision. The person who is investing will understand for himself whether he is actually investing aggressively or investing normally  with discretionary income by DCA  .

However, I think that in the beginning of investing in Bitcoin, one should invest a little aggressively. So that Bitcoin can be bought with money equal to one year's income in 4 years. This will make it easier to reach the over-accumulation stage. Along with this investment, it is necessary to form an emergency fund and a reserve fund. This way, the Bitcoins that he has accumulated can be retained. And after investing for a long time like this, if he thinks that now I will use this Bitcoin to live my next life, then he can quit his job and through sustainable withdrawal, he can gradually sell Bitcoin and leave for the rest of his life.

There is a saying in our native language, from whatever you earn, keep some part for basic needs and save the rest for the future. Maybe one day you will fall ill and you will be able to remove your illness and lack and basic needs through savings. Exactly, I want to add something more to your words, because a daily wage earner earns some income. And he must keep some part of the income aside for the future, exactly what I want to say is that it is most important to connect those saved money with Bitcoin. Because the more you deposit in Bitcoin, the better you will be able to move forward economically, it is possible to achieve multiple benefits.
If you are a low-income person, you should not invest all your savings. Because as you mentioned, you need to save for the future, but if you invest all your savings, we know that if you invest in Bitcoin, you should hold it for a long time. Now if you invest all your savings, how will you get treatment if you get sick? So after meeting your needs with your income, you should not invest the entire amount, you should keep a fund for emergencies.
No matter how low or high a person's income is, he should always invest in Bitcoin with his discretionary income. If he invests in Bitcoin with his necessities or household expenses, it will not be an investment. It will be trading or gambling. If he invests in this way, he will not be able to keep it for a long time, and if he invests for a short period of time, he will make relatively small profits or he will have a high chance of losing money. However, if someone earns relatively little money but still has some money as discretionary income at the end of the month, then he can invest from there if he wants. If he wants, he can get to a much better position by investing just $10 per week. If he develops the mindset of making investment for a long time, he will be in a better position even if he invests less money. If someone followed DCA weekly for $10 four years ago and invested in Bitcoin. Then he would have an investment of  $2,090.00 and his total Bitcoin would be 0.054902 and his current profit return would be 188.50%. Currently, his Bitcoin value would be $ $6,030.21 which is much more profitable than any other investment.
So even if a person has a low income, if he can invest in the right way and follow DCA method with discretionary income, then he will be in a good position in the future. However, to run the investment for a long time, he must form an emergency fund and reserve fund. As a result, if he faces any financial problem in the future, like you said, if he needs a large amount of money for treatment, he can get his emergency or take that money from the fund and solve any kind of financial problem.

Yeah you are right, because the way I see it, just saying I’ve been holding Bitcoin for years doesn’t really paint the full picture if the stack itself is too small to make a real difference. There are people who have been holding since 2018, but when you check, it is barely a few hundred or may be thousands dollars worth, and in reality the profit is nice but not life changing.   
Meanwhile, someone who entered just 3 or 4 years ago with a solid stack ends up way ahead of them. That is why I agree that size and time must go hand in hand, you can’t focus on only one and ignore the other. The smart play is to combine patience with consistent stacking, because that way even if you start small, over time your bag grows into something meaningful, and when the bull run comes, the rewards will actually feel worth the wait…

One major mistake some investors make is that they only think about short term profit, some focus on what they might gain in the next two or three months. They forget that the real value of investing is in the future. The sacrifices we put in today are what to bring the true rewards. Bitcoin is along term investment, that needs patience and a clear mind above quick profits.

Many people have been holding Bitcoin for years, but some still don’t see huge profits because their accumulation has been small or inconsistent. On the other hand, someone who started just two years ago could be holding more than a guy who has been in the journey for 7 years, just because their plan was not different. That’s why consistency in accumulation always matters more than how long you have been in the market.
Only the size of your stack and the regular accumulation does make a difference in your gains over time; over time doesn't necessarily mean big gains. Note that many early holders actually end up making modest profits but only because they didn't purchase enough eventually. The key is to be patient while making small regular purchases steadily so that your position is built up over years of time. In the end, caution that's too short-term will cost you in missed opportunities, and disciplined long-term thinking will let you enjoy the benefits once the market inevitably lets steam out. In the Crypto game, seniority means nothing if it is not consistently applied.
Success doesn't depend on how much you know about Bitcoin or how many years ago you invested. Bitcoin's success depends on the right way of investing and at the right time. Let's say a person has been thinking about Bitcoin for a long time. He was able to buy Bitcoin at a very low price in 2017, but he didn't hold it for a long time or continue investing for a long time. After a few days, when he saw that he had made some profit, he sold the entire BTC. But later, he couldn't buy Bitcoin at a relatively low price. So I think it was his wrong decision to sell Bitcoin after a few days. If he wanted to invest and hold Bitcoin for a long time, he would have owned a relatively large amount of Bitcoin, which would have been several times more than his previous profit.

Let's give another example: a person invested in Bitcoin in April 2021 and his investment was a large sum of money at once. At that time, the price of BTC relatively high. As a result of investing a lot of money at once, he had no money in his hand. But it turned out that later the price of Bitcoin had decreased a lot. Here, if that person had not invested a lot of money at once in the lump sum method, but had followed the DCA method and bought it monthly or weekly with a fixed amount of money, then he would have been able to buy Bitcoin for less money in 2023 when the price of Bitcoin had dropped to twenty thousand. Therefore, his average purchase price of Bitcoin would have been relatively much lower. Therefore, it is most important to invest in the right way. There are many people, but they do not invest. As a result, despite being quite knowledgeable and senior in Bitcoin, they have made relatively little profit or many have faced losses due to not investing in the right way. Therefore, investing in Bitcoin is a long-term investment and patience is very important here.
