Bitcoin Forum

There are many types of Bitcoin investors, some invest for long-term holdings, while others invest for short-term holdings. But one thing is true, those who invest in Bitcoin for short term are never able to achieve anything big. On the contrary, they face more losses.

every Bitcoin investment should be long-term. Because we have seen that even at the end of 2023 the price of bitcoin was 42k and as the year 2024 falls, the price of bitcoin has crossed 50k and currently the price of bitcoin is 52k. So now consider that those who invested in Bitcoin in 2023, when the price of Bitcoin was hovering between 26k and 27k, have already received double returns. So those who have been patiently holding Bitcoin since then have already reaped double the return on their investment.

Now another big opportunity is going to come in front of us. When the price of Bitcoin will increase much more than that. So I would say, those who haven't invested in Bitcoin yet, make a final decision to invest in Bitcoin for lone time Holding now and hold until the next ATH. You invest in Bitcoin and keep your Bitcoin holdings safe, because the next bull market is going to have the power to change your life. So just Hold bitcoin for long time.

Bitcoin was created as an alternative currency to fiat but due to the potential of bitcoin, the value of bitcoin increases with time line, and this has made people to use it more as an investment than using it for daily transactions.

Bitcoin investment is like a physical investment that needs time to grow before you can start reaping the profit, but is you just started a business and the business is in it's baby state, and you decide to start using the investment to take care of some bills, it means that the investment will crash.

This is the same with bitcoin, and this is why you must invest in a long term so that you can limit the risk and be sure of some profit in the long run. The investors that are in good profit are those that bottom during 2022 bottom line of 16k, and those that are hodling for up to two cycles now. However, it is not still late to benefit from bitcoin if you start now.

Some investors may need the profit right away. While bitcoin is a great source of profit, everyone should bear in mind that it might not be advisable to treat bitcoin as your main source of income. It is called an investment for a reason. You are meant to buy and let it grow.

Altcoins are typically more recommended for short-term tradings. You can easily get profit for a really short amount of time albeit quite riskier than bitcoin. Maybe some investors want the safety and security bitcoin has but they need the money right now. If you really want to do that, just make sure to invest some and leave it alone and you can continue your short-term trading activities.

Bitcoin is meant to increase more as time goes so it is essential that we keep holding.

To each his own, as much as we wanted to HODL for long term, but just imagine what kind of market will be for Bitcoin if everyone is just buying and there's no seller in the market? Right, and so this is why the market is very volatile, one of it's nature that most of us take advantage of it, some sellers and then others waiting to scope that BTC and fill their bags. For those who are holding it though, not the right time to sell, unless it's necessary (there is an emergency and you needed more money). But the best selling time is near the top of the bull run, you just have to time the market, or just sell in small portions, in my opinion. Anyhow, still plenty of time to accumulate sats before the halving in April.

Are you a God who know everything in the future? how you can be completely sure if Bitcoin will make new ATH and change someone life?

I hope people are not blindly trusting someone else predictions instead try to learn what's Bitcoin, why you want to buy Bitcoin and know the limit of risk of investing in Bitcoin.

If not, they will use all of their savings, sell their property or assets, or taking out a loan in order to invest in Bitcoin because they believe Bitcoin will change their lives!

This post should have been on Bear market not now on Bull market

For short investor the best way for now its ALT SEASON Like if u remember on last bull run that Shiba gained 350.000% within 1 year

see more for Alt SEASON

Yes, if someone really wants to earn good returns from Bitcoin investment then that person has to hold his investment for at least 2 to 4 years in order to earn some good profits. For better profits I believe an investor needs to hold that investment for at least a decade.

It's expected that in future Bitcoin will gain value of at least $1M a coin and the ones who invested in Bitcoin during last bear market would reap so good profits by holding their investment for a decade. I would also suggest all the investors to hold your Bitcoin investment if you really want good returns from your investment.

I personally also only invest in bitcoin for the long term. Because we can't expect much in short-term bitcoin investments. Because bitcoin price movements tend to have the same cycle for every bitcoin halving. So it becomes more profitable if stored for the long term. In the short term, I think we can still hope for far more from altcoins even though they have the same big risks. But in the long term Bitcoin has proven that loyal holders always have a profit as long as they hold strong until the target price is reached.

There is no need for a god to convince someone that BTC will reach its ATH again, @OP didn't say anything about the exact time frame, he just said that long-term BTC investors have more to gain than short-term investors. Remember that BTC has a limited supply, and with this, the level of scarcity will increase over time. That's what makes @OP believe that long-term investors benefit more than short-term investors.

Z.H.I.E.N.D

That's not really a long-term investment, that's only 1-2 years and long-term is like 5-10 years. Day trading is a very bad idea, and trying to predict weekly or monthly trends is not much better, but betting on the halvening cycles isn't bad even for beginners. Most important is not getting too greedy and actually sell during the bull run, and then not get too greedy in the bear market and buy before the price starts bouncing back.

We do know that not all would really be having that holding kind of thinking or target and this is why they would really be that deciding that they will really be that to actively trading it out.
Actually it would really be that just with your own choice since not all would really be having that kind of perceptions in their investment on which there are ones who are really that go for long term hold
and there are ones who dont have the patience on long time holding and this is why they've decided to deal up with short term holds.

Invest on Bitcoin but only on the money on which you can afford to lose. Dont make yourself invest with loan money or life savings so that whenever the price
would really be going down then you wont really be having that kind of panic mode. You would really just that easily be able to move on and wont really be
that impulsive.

Bitcoin wasn't designed for short term investment, more typically it was created as an alternate currency against the shortcomings of fiat currency with it's proneness to inflation and centralized regulations that takes financial freedom and privacy out of the  hands of the ordinary man. Gradually with the value bitcoin started to gain investors rather now saw it as an hedge to profit making through a long time holding duration of the coins. Bitcoin is nothing like altcoins and if anyone would make tangible profit it's only through a long time holding strategy and you can do that through DCAing and lump sum buying.

There is no certainty that bitcoin will make a new ATH and bring profits to many bitcoin holders. But as a bitcoin investor, we have the right to be optimistic and believe that history will repeat itself, bitcoin will increase in price and create a higher ATH. But you are right, we can be optimistic but not subjective, we should still have a backup plan if bitcoin fails to create a new ATH, history does not repeat itself. The future is something no one can predict or be certain of, so there must always be a backup plan for every situation.

OP may be predicting the price based on the history of Bitcoin. We all know that we cannot accurately predict the future price of Bitcoin but the currency has a cycle that it has always followed. Even with the current price, Bitcoin has already started changing the financial lives of many people.  


The price of altcoins might grow higher within a short period but one also needs to be concerned with the risk of investing in these altcoins. One also needs some skills or experience to be able to navigate the altcoin sector, which makes it a highly risky area for newbies.

We've been reminding a lot of people that every time we're approaching the halving, they should buy. And even there's no halving, as long as the market is on the dip, we also tell them to buy.

Honestly, we've been telling them to buy at any season that they can buy. Because no matter what happens, all we have to do is to wait and patiently buy.

The reward and profit is there at the end of the long wait but whoever loses his patience won't get the most from holding Bitcoin.

Your perspective on long-term Bitcoin investment is insightful, emphasizing the historical trends and the potential for significant returns. While the idea of holding for the long term has proven beneficial for many, it's crucial for every investor to approach cryptocurrency with careful consideration. The market's volatility and unpredictable nature require thorough research, risk assessment, and an understanding of individual financial goals. Diversification and staying informed about market dynamics are key elements in navigating the cryptocurrency landscape. Your advice to potential investors to make informed decisions and prepare for market fluctuations is well-noted. As always, it's recommended to seek professional advice and stay updated on market trends before making any investment decisions.

In other words, actually everyone can invest in Bitcoin without exception as long as they have a basic knowledge first so that they are more confident about putting money into it. But apart from that, of course investing wisely has its own rules and methods. DCA is friendly for everyone if they already have a consistent income from their work, ideally like that but that doesn't mean people who don't have passive income can't invest, it's just that there are fundamental differences when faced with a situation of urgent need. Therefore investing in Bitcoin is better to ensure that the income of funds is consistent and also gets maximum returns. Investment in Bitcoin is indeed long term because now the market capitalization is very large.

Everyone has different plans and strategies in treating Bitcoin and all of them aim to make a profit, and this is the beauty and freedom of Bitcoin's existence.
However, we will never know for those who use Bitcoin for trading, short, medium and long term whether they use Bitcoin for transactions because we know that Bitcoin was created as an alternative currency.
And I think they will definitely use it if they have to use Bitcoin for transactions and both parties use Bitcoin and have Bitcoin wallets, and the right reason is probably because Bitcoin is still not allowed to be used as a transaction tool. And it may only be used for individual transactions if Bitcoin is prohibited from being used as a means of transaction, and if it is allowed, perhaps only a few shops or sellers will accept Bitcoin as a means of payment.
So in my opinion, even though Bitcoin is better used as an asset or investment, that doesn't mean they don't use it for transactions because we don't know about it even if it's only in small amounts. And I'm sure that eventually Bitcoin will work for transactions and investments and it's just a matter of time.

To be honest, although I use Bitcoin for long-term investment. However, I have also used Bitcoin several times as a means of private transactions between Bitcoin users because of its convenience, speed and distance.

Those of us who discuss Bitcoin and investment always say that Bitcoin is one of the best digital currencies to invest in and an investor who holds his Bitcoin for a long period of time will surely make a substantial profit over time. The more bitcoins you hold, the more profit you can make. Many hold their investments for different periods of time. There are some investors who hold their investment for five to six years after investing and they hold their investment for that period regardless of the fluctuations in the market. We have to hold it in such a way that we don't sell prematurely. I invested in Bitcoin and planned to hold it for long term but after some time the market rose a bit and I got some profit then if I sell my investment then it is not a long term investment at all.

When it comes to investing in bitcoin I prefer to invest for the long term. Long term investment gives good returns while in short term its profit is less. We all know that cryptocurrency Bitcoin is a strong long term investment opportunity but before diving into this world it is wise to exercise caution and be clear with yourself about your intentions and expectations for entering the market. Bitcoin is good at long term thinking but like crypto can go up and down so quickly that many people may be disappointed that they have to wait patiently without any thought.

I am also into the benefits of long-term holding until it reaches again or surpasses the current ATH, I know this will give me a substantial return that patiently holds onto my investment. I am excited for the successful journey that will bring positive changes. But of course, I am aware of the risks involved that we can also experience the other way around and I consider those before accumulating as much as possible. I believe I am in a successful strategy. I know some frequent traders take advantage of price fluctuations to generate returns and that’s the other approach that it’s not my forte now.

I am not a god but, Everyone knows that Bitcoin will create new ATH. It's not just me alone, it's known by everyone on this forum and everyone believes that Bitcoin will create the new ATH. Also I have not mentioned any specific time frame there, I have only mentioned long term investment. Moreover, long-term investment in Bitcoin definitely has a higher potential for profit. And if an investor invests long-term in Bitcoin from now and holds it until the next ATH, then of course he, that ATH will make a good profit and and that profit will definitely improve his living a little bit And that's what I meant.

Hmm, Having a mindset to book profit and exit temporarily is not a bad strategy. TBH I do believe you should enter and exit in every zone with a proper strategy as in risk management we learn something called, portfolio management. In my case for this cycle, I'm planning to hold Bitcoin for 3 targets and sell 25% on each target on which the 1st target is already hit.

I'll keep holding 25% left, from this cycle to the next cycle. Just holding can be a good deal for lazy investors for those who closely follow the market and use the trailing, Zone to zone market provides many buying back opportunities.

 The idea of investing in Bitcoin and holding for the long term is not a concept that is new here and this means most investors who add Bitcoin to their portfolio with the aim of raking inhige profits already have it at the backs of their minds to hold and not to sell the moment they see a hike in price because since Bitcoin is a volatile coin which has the tendency to increase or decrease, it means that even when it increases, if one is patient it can get higher.
 Most times people feel the urge to hurry and sell when they got into investing with money meant for something else that's why they can't really reap the fruits of holding Bitcoin for long and it's usually advised to trade with an amount you can easily part with or let go of Incase things don't pan out right but in this case, so you can able to easily leave it and let it pile up.

Who says that Bitcoin investment for the short term is bad? Everyone must survive anyway they see fit, your condition could be better than the other, so don't judge or advice anyone to hold for long term, people are really going through a lot and they need to survive, either long or short term Bitcoin is a good one.

The advantage of long term holding is better return of your investment, since bitcoin keeps appreciating in value, holding for the long term is always more profitable.

Don't expect all crypto beginners to be in good shape, I knew bitcoin when I was struggling to even survive, many newbies will be in same shape, so their first target is to survive first, when they make some money they will want to take profit and live on that for a while.

Growing is a gradual process, it's a step after the other.

Hmm, long-term holding is the best idea in my case rather than to start trading as a newbie in the crypto space. Those who holding bitcoin from the prices vary between $20k-$25k are now in 2x profit but if the same investors who started the trades at the same time may be in minus or maybe in profits all depends haha Nobody gonna know. Bitcoin has gained a lot about its price which is really very amazing performance. Bitcoin current market cap is $1.02 trillion at the time I am creating this post.

So obviously long-term holding of bitcoin returns a good amount of profits to its investors. All needed is faith and belief even if it goes more and more down but if you see going it more down start accumulating bags and keep buying and wait for the time when it will give you the maximum profit. Bitcoin will give us one and last chance of filling our bag before the halving event there we can accumulate more to make more profit. DYOR!

Every investor has a different target in bitcoin investment maybe they will say short-term because the profits will be achieved immediately then this is not wrong not bad because the profits are still being obtained so it depends on their decision how to take steps to invest in bitcoin.

Many people always suggest long-term bitcoin for at least 4 years (1 cycle) those who are strong in holding for a long time are great at maintaining investment and stabilizing their finances for a long time, while in this way it is not easy for people who are mediocre they will certainly choose short-term rather than long-term.

But now I decided that long-term investment is a good thing to do because the benefits are clearly higher than we thought. Keep it up and keep HODL.

Yes, it's like that, long term holders will always be winners. but for beginner investors, the majority of them play in the short term and mid term. hoping to get rich suddenly overnight. even though if they want to play in the long term area, the fact is that if we look at the Bitcoin growth graph from 2009 - 2023, the graph always shows growth. but then again it's their money and their decision to go down that path. I think there are many roads to Rome, so maybe they can be successful in the short term and mid term.

While Bitcoin can be a lucrative investment, it's crucial to understand its limitations and risks. It's not a reliable source of immediate income, and treating it as such can lead to financial hardship. Remember, it's called an investment for a reason - its value is intended to grow over time, not provide quick cash.

For short-term needs, alts might be a more suitable option. However, they carry significantly higher risks than Bitcoin due to their inherent volatility. Investing in altcoins requires careful research and a strong understanding of the market.

If you need immediate access to funds, consider only investing a portion of your portfolio in Bitcoin and leaving the rest untouched. This way, you can participate in its potential long-term growth while maintaining some liquidity for short-term needs. Remember, the key to successful Bitcoin investing is patience and a long-term perspective. Holding onto your investment allows you to benefit from its potential price appreciation over time.

It depends on the amount of investment one puts in. Even if investors take the risk of buying Bitcoin in the range of $40-$50k, they still need to wait for the price of Bitcoin to reach $80-$100k to double their investment. If someone is hoping to improve their life, it's better to diversify their investments and look for other cryptocurrencies to invest in besides Bitcoin.

well, it is true that people who hold bitcoin in the short term, will not make huge profits. that's because the price of bitcoin is currently very large, and even an increase of under 10% is still quite small. If you want to wait for profits above 10%, it might take quite a long time.
However, I have also tried this, but because the profits I got were small, I switched to using altcoins for the short term, especially altcoins that have low prices. it would be great if we utilize altcoins while collecting bitcoins. it can be a good investment over a long period of time.

True, many people or investors in crypto currency are very hesitant with altcoins. Well, we do get why, as some altcoins are very dangerous to invest with because they are prone to scams. But with known altcoins, you can utilise short-term trades or holdings because, as you've said, they have a low price, so you can buy bulk and sell them in the right position, but of course proceed with caution and carefulness. I do enjoy doing short-term trades and holdings in altcoins beside bitcoin, as I want my bitcoin holdings to just sit right there and keep on growing, so in order to still have earnings, I sometimes hunt for new altcoins or new coins in the market with the potential of growing. It is risky, yes, but we cannot get anything if we do not risk it. And so far, I can say I can make some profit while waiting for bitcoin's bull run and my assets to grow even more.

We don't have many types of investors, we have two types and they're the first group of investors that invest for short-term and those that invest for long term. Traders are included in those that invest for short-term because they sell Bitcoin during a very limited number of hours or days after buying. Investors that invest for short term are also making profits don't think that it's only those that invested for long term that are making profits. Everybody can't be a long term investors because some investors will need emergency money while they're investing in Bitcoin and as you're using Bitcoin as a way to secure your wealth others are making use of it for wealth creation therefore they buy and take profits. Those that invest for longer time will make more profits but also those that invested for short term can also make some profits.

Honestly, profitable obtained from investing in Bitcoin long term are much greater than in the short term, although they consistently get profits of around 2% to 5%, but daily profits cannot be guaranteed.
Significant comparison when the price of bitcoin  few months ago was still below $30k and now it has reached more than $52k, almost 100% of the profit obtained if you invest in bitcoin long term.  I don't think easily to earn much profitable with short term trading in bitcoin and we must take risk for cut losses if any potential price drop drastically as short term trading. Have problem with decision to be long term holding in bitcoin investment needed other source income and we not tempted to sell bitcoin when price increasing up few percent. Have good money management and much saving fund before becoming long term investing in bitcoin exactly more than one until three years later.

Of course Bitcoin should be a long-term investment. Those who have invested in Bitcoin for the long term have had great success, but those who are afraid to invest in Bitcoin and rush to sell their investments when the market rises a bit, do not have much success in investing. So it is always better to choose long term holdings for investment. Also those who use the DCA method for investing and continue with that DCA method for several years have and will continue to have more success in investing. But remember one thing no one should be afraid to invest in Bitcoin those who have not invested yet are preparing themselves to invest very soon the market will move to a better position and next bullran market will make a new ATH. So don't miss the opportunity and involve yourself in investment.

Everyone can invest in Bitcoin but not everyone can hold long time. If you want to profit from investing in Bitcoin, you need to learn to be patient. If you can't be patient, you may end up selling your investment when the market goes down a bit, which could result in a loss on the investment. Bitcoin price is very high, small investment here will not make much profit, but you can be very risk free. If you want to get a lot of profit by investing in Bitcoin then hold for long time.

Not sure what do you mean those who invest in short term faces losses because there are no stupid investor that will put their money inside bitcoin and then will take out while in losses(of course there is separate scenario for those emergency use) because even if it is for short term we will make sure that we are in profit before selling,there are no one will force you selling while its dumping.

You cannot force people to Just keep holding while there are many strategy and opportunity to make more money than just Holding.

Like now that bitcoin is still waiting for ATH , if you have bought bitcoin at 30k last year then you can consider selling now at 52k and wait for dump and buy more ? so why need to completely HODL?

We know that Bitcoin is really proven and tested when it comes to long-term investment. Now, apart from that, there are other alternatives that can also give us an opportunity, like Bitcoin does. And those who have been here for a long time in the crypto industry field cannot deny that.

Even now, Bitcoin is not my priority in accumulating it, but I am doing it little by little, even though we have different goals in this industry of the crypto space.
It's a different cryptocurrency because the priority I'm saving for right now is to be honest.

No there's one exception on the text that I bolded.
What about those traders who are successful in trading? I mean they're short-term holders of Bitcoin but they became successful? What about them then? They didn't achieve anything big? Tell that to those successful traders. :P

You don't have the right to decide for other investors out there. I can invest into Bitcoin, and hold it for mid-term only. At the same time, I can just buy Bitcoin after the halving and sell it immediately if I know that I will get profits from it. I know that Bitcoin is a good long-term investment, but is isn't only good for the long-term. At the end of the day, it will depend on the strategy of the one who's holding it. Well, I agree with what you said though. Those who are patient enough to wait for the bull run are the ones who maximize the profit now. Those who risked, and bought during the bear market are the ones who have the most profits now.

Yes, a big opportunity for me to sell all of my token holdings, and will be patiently waiting for the bear market to happen again. :D It's a cycle, and holding assets for years, and not taking the opportunity will lead to regret like what I felt last bull run. Hold Bitcoin for a long time? I might be holding Bitcoin for 4 years at least. When the time is right, I'll sell, and will buy again. :)

If there's an opportunity, always take it.

as many people say in this forum, investing in Bitcoin will be better for the long term and what the forum members say is true, the proof is that now the BTC price has touched $52k and what the forum members here say is true, now people don't dare to buy BTC at all. During the bear market, of course  regretting it now and it's true that people who bought BTC when the BTC price was $25k or $27k have of course now made 2x the profits and I'm sure many members of this forum have made 2x the profits. and in fact, in my opinion, there are certainly many who have gained more than 2x the profits from investing like those who bought BTC for less than $20k but are still holding strong until now.

Profit opportunities will of course increase for those who invest in BTC and are still holding strong until now because of course it is predicted that the peak price of BTC will rise high during the bull run. Yes, for those who haven't invested in BTC, it's certainly not too late and of course can still buy BTC as long as are prepared for the risks posed by BTC.

Yes, it is true that investing in BTC for the long term is a good way, but for the short term it is also very good as long as master the knowledge.

If you make the right investment there is no loss in bitcoin, although in the short term it is much more difficult to make big profits. Investment talks about opportunities and especially for the short term because when we buy at a slightly more expensive price, achieving maximum profits will be much more difficult. That's why investing in bitcoin is much better in the long term because we can sell at the price we want and in the long term we can also get the next ATH.

Patience will bring one to the profit stage and if they can wait and continue to accumulate bitcoins responsibly then I am sure we will experience quite maximum profits after the next ATH. Now it depends on how someone implements the strategy and if they want to get big profits then they should choose the long term and if they want to get even small profits in the short term they also have a chance.

Maybe there will be no loss in bitcoin unless you didn't sell when there's a price dump or correction happen. Paper loss is what actually the issue here and to many people got scared about encountering this that's why a lot people holding bitcoin lose its because they got afraid on certain dump happen since they sell their bitcoin out of panic on those situation. If they could just able to wait for price recovery since bitcoin is well known for that for sure there will be no loss gonna happen but instead they could able to enjoy the profit what can actually bring by good events brought up by bitcoin hype.

We are seeing now the good events that can help bitcoin to pump and people should consider that since its important to know these so that they could set some targets on when they would sell their coins and take their profits.

Well, don't you think it's already too late for those that may want to buy at this point, I think we are already in bullrun and I don't see BTC price retracing back to $40k not with the approval of the Bitcoin spot ETF. Alot of newbie are coming into the crypto space everyday and the current price of BTC may scare them. Though BTC may still have a long way to go but not everyone has the ball to buy in at this rate the reason why many newbies are looking towards altcoins.

Moral lesson... Procrastination is dangerous, when you have the opportunity to invest, never waste time. #BTC always.

One of the things that makes people to go into short-term investment in bitcoin is because they want to gain profit quick from their investment, so they find it very difficult to have the patience to go into long-term investment. Hodling Bitcoin long-term as investment is the only way to make good gains out from bitcoin,  bitcoin is all about long-term when we are talking about profit making.

Normally buying low and hodling Bitcoin is a very good way of making good profits in bitcoin,  and this is what Real bitcoin investors do to gain profit from Bitcoin because they are very sure of bitcoin , thst it will definitely yield profit when you hodl it for sometime.

Bitcoin price is increasing drastically, and for those that have been able to hodl bitcoin for sometime without any fear of selling have made so much profit in hodling.  The profit in bitcoin is real for those that can hodl it without any form of doubt.

Since you can never guarantee that the price of Bitcoins will increase significantly and sell them will make you a huge profit, in this case you should hold your investment in Bitcoins indefinitely. so you have to invest in such a way that you don't have to sell them until your target is met. so you should hold for the long term by investing as much as you can afford to invest for the long term. Bitcoin price is now around $52k Many of us are afraid to invest in Bitcoin now because it has already gained a lot in price.  But we find it hard to accept that the price could cross $100k at any time

Now is the right time to hold on as the price of bitcoin seems to rise significantly. The only way to profit from bitcoin is to invest for the long term. Bitcoin price has reached 50 thousand dollars. It has increased a lot in a week that's because investors have started increasing their investments in new spot ETFs approved last month. With the bitcoin halving investors are hoping for better long term returns.

I don't think it's too late for those who haven't bought bitcoins yet, there's still time to buy them, they can still buy bitcoins if they want and hold them for investment. We saw Bitcoin price rise to a high after the Bitcoin ETF was approved last month, but then fell back a bit and then rebounded to reach 52,000. The current price of Bitcoin is above $50000 and from here we can also buy Bitcoin as Bitcoin halving is only a few months away. We all know that after bitcoin halving the crypto bullrun season will start then surely bitcoin price will 2x i.e. to 100k dollars.

op I agree with you. That's because if we invest in Bitcoin, we must have a long-term plan in Bitcoin investment. If we invest without a long-term plan, we won't get much success with Bitcoin investment. Patience is very important in bitcoin investment There are many people who get impatient with bitcoin so be patient and check the market if we can invest in bitcoin then we can get success with this investment. So we all should have a long term plan in investing in Bitcoin and invest patiently checking the market so that we can get a lot of success through the future.

Personally when I first joined the crypto space , btc wasn’t my motive coz as of that time I had very little funds . So I thought the need to diversify my portfolio with low cap gems for quick profits . After compounding for a while I was able to invest some amounts in btc .. i hear most people just buy and forget about it lol , I buy take profits then look for a better entry to buy again strategically

It sounds like you do more profit taking as a trader would rather than as long term investor.
BTC investment as HODLing for long term is quite profitable if one gets to have a good offline or hardware wallet that is not connected to any exchange or has any loop holes that can allow Internet hackers to access the account. Also if an investor is not one to always be careless to loose their key phrases, then long term investment or HoDling BTC will be sure profitable.

The discipline can also guarantee one to be able to accumulate BTC no matter how small for a good long term duration despite any market seasons or the price and ATH.

Investors invest thinking that they will invest for long time but there are some investors who patiently invest and hold for long time and they only get huge profits by holding long term from Bitcoin. But there are many investors who plan to invest for a long time and keep investing, but after a few days after investing, when they see a small profit, the emotions and feelings work so deeply in them that they break the commitment to keep the investment for a long time and hold Bitcoin as soon as they get the profit Instead of making, it sells. However, no matter what you call trading or investment, you should not be overly emotional after investing. After investing, one must be patient by deciding to invest for the long term and no matter how much profit comes, if a plan is made to invest for a certain period of time, it must be the job of a good investor to keep investing for that period.

Few people can think about investing in Bitcoin for the long term because many investors only think about making profits in a short time. Maybe that can be achieved if Bitcoin's movement is in a state of increasing day by day. But we know and see that Bitcoin movements always go up and down and even currently market conditions are declining again.

If you are a Bitcoin investor, you must be able to hold your Bitcoin for the long term and not be tempted by anything. They are unable to hold their Bitcoin any longer because market conditions are becoming increasingly uncertain. This makes them lose their enthusiasm to keep holding their Bitcoin and finally they sell their Bitcoin at a loss.

In investing in Bitcoin, we must have strong hands and not be easily tempted by anything. We also don't need to check market conditions too often because our goal is long term. We only need to buy Bitcoin and hold it until the time we determine and wait until the price reaches the price we want then we sell it.

That's right. Bitcoin is a long-term investment opportunity with great profits, safer than any other type. Bitcoin has become a 1000 billion asset and it will continue to increase in value over time. Greed is a common mistake for investors who misunderstand investment strategies. When they can't hold back, they will sell bitcoin to buy the hype and get bad results, not achieving profits. I think it's best to diversify and be willing to hold bitcoin for the long term.

By investing in bitcoin with long term holding have bigger profitable opportunity than short term trading, actually long term trading not required until several years later but one or two years hold bitcoin seems still promising to earn profit more than 50% until 100%.
Last years, bitcoin dropped almost $20k and we can calculate with how much potential profitable earn until one years holding more than 100% regarding bitcoin success raise to $53k.
Investing for long term in bitcoin need strong hand and difficult for trader with paper hand typical, they will see when bitcoin up few percent only without looking the potential profitable earn when long term holding.

Holding Bitcoin for a long time must of course be able to decide to sell when you get multiple profits, in other words, Bitcoin will not always continue to be held for the long term, even though Bitcoin is predicted to become increasingly expensive in the future, but the age of someone who holds Bitcoin  Of course it won't last forever, someone also wants to be able to enjoy the results.
Whenever we feel that we have made a profit, it would be better to be able to enjoy the results, unless the Bitcoin assets we own are used as an inheritance so that future children can enjoy them.

Agreed to certain extend as long term investors are safe and end up receiving more profit than the short term investors but not everyone can be an long term investors as those who have enough money, allocated some fund for risk investment can be a long term investor but someone who couldn't save much won't be a long term investor because those with lesser capital wants to increase their capital by earning profits as a result end up with lesser profit by cashing out early or enduring loss. I think DCA is the solution for all but one should require patience.

It should be if you want to take high profits investing long-term in bitcoin will pay off, in contrast to altcoins if we want high profits investing short-term will be profitable in altcoins. And i noticed that if bitcoin goes down the others also go down, and vice versa if altcoins go up it's because bitcoin is going up. Indeed bitcoin is the parent for other coins and there are still many reasons related to this, the important thing is that we understand the flow of all this, i am sure it will definitely be profitable for those who understand it.

Before investing in Bitcoin an investor must first have a good idea about Bitcoin. As a trader or investors Bitcoin should not be considered only as a trading tool. It can turn into a great asset if the investment is planned for the long term. If the investor feels that he can profit by selling the bitcoins then he can sell them as per his wish. But when Bitcoin is thought of as an asset, it's definitely harder to sell. Although there are no guarantees in investing, depending on the market conditions and possible reasons to hold Bitcoin, it will turn into a permanent asset in the long term. I can't disagree with your words because the price of Bitcoin can go up as well as lose at any time. So if someone wants to avoid risk in investment he can sell his bitcoins but I think a bitcoin holder must take a strong position for holding bitcoin for long time.

We all have different perspectives of how we perceive things, there are those who are more comfortable with short term investments and it have been a success for them they have been able to realize a reasonable profit from it. Also there are those who believe so much in long term investments and it has been working for them and have been able to gain some profit out of it. In the long run long term investment can be more profitable and less risky than short term investing but all that matters is gaining profit from your investment so it doesn’t really matter what investment technique you adopt. Some people don’t like the idea of holding for a long time probably because they don’t have the patience to wait for a long period.

I agree with you and i also believe long term investment will bring more returns but condemning short term investment when both have their advantages and disadvantages is not ideal. There are some people who are lucky with investing for short term and they are able to make some profit for themselves and if you come to think of it, if they keep making profit from time to time it might be equivalent to the amount long term investors make. All investments are risky and even the long term investors are at risk too when they don’t know how to manage their profits.

Everyone is free to invest in Bitcoin whenever they want. It's not always as profitable as it may seem because it's for the patient investors to wait for the long term.

And that's why if you consider yourself investing to Bitcoin for a short term period of time, that's your strategy and no one can stop that. You just can't force people and say that they should hold for long term if they don't like and what's promising to them is to hold short term.

To invest or not, that's the decision that you can't force to everyone that have the idea on how they're going to take for themselves.

Many of those new to the Bitcoin investment sector are attracted to the idea of ​​"get rich quick" with Bitcoin investment , but the reality is that any successful investment, including Bitcoin, requires patience and long-term planning. When many new investors invest in Bitcoin, after a few days when the price of Bitcoin goes down, many get emotional and sell their Bitcoin at a loss. They don't have the patience to hold on to their investments for the long term. The biggest challenge in Bitcoin investing is patience. I hold my bitcoins, I will definitely hold my bitcoins until it go ATH. Only those who pass the test of patience can be reap huge profits from Bitcoin.

Everyone has a choice that will give him profit, because everyone has a target on investment. Some people believe that if they invest for a long time, they will not be able to achieve their goal. They can't take risks for a long time, and all of the people are investing in shot time. Even if the price just increases in their investment, they will sell it because they are afraid of losing money, and I can't say those people are real investors, because real investors do not sell coins like that, They need to quadruple their investment before they can sell the coins. Most people prefer long-term investments because they know what they will achieve if they leave it for a long time, but some people sell their coins quickly because something unexpected occurs and they have no choice but to sell in order to solve their problems. But as for myself, I'm already used to investing for the long run because I believe crypto would benefit me greatly if I leave my bitcoin.

Many investors are aware that long-term Bitcoin investment methods offer higher returns than short-term ones. Still, a portion of people choose to make short-term Bitcoin investments. Their justification is the possibility of making significant gains even in short times, especially in weak markets. Bitcoin frequently experiences large price drops during these downturns, offering buyers the chance to purchase at a discount.

Despite the prevailing sentiment that long-term holding is the key to maximizing profits in the cryptocurrency market, short-term traders exploit market volatility to their advantage. By strategically timing their entry and exit points, short-term investors aim to capitalize on price fluctuations, turning quick profits. This dichotomy between long-term and short-term investment approaches underscores the diverse strategies adopted by participants in the Bitcoin market, each driven by their unique risk tolerance, investment goals, and market outlook.

The problem is that we don't know what the real next ATH will be. So, sometimes we have too high hopes based on various predictions made by various parties. Which in reality may not actually be reality. So, sometimes that's what makes us confused, how far should we hold it, do we really have to wait for the ATH or are we better off targeting some Bitcoin rate. So at least we have the opportunity to gain profits at a certain number, but not spend it all in one trade, only for a few years in the bullish era.

Don't get me wrong because some short-term investors earn more than long-term. Just imagine if they could make a profit of 3-5% monthly, it would be huge compared to those who have waited for many years and just earned x2 of their capital. It won't just matter on time but also how much you invested. If we can invest more, the more possibility that we earn more as well.
Nobody loses as long as they won't sell at a losing price. Buy Bitcoin at $30,000 and then sell at $52,000, you could imagine good earnings in just a short period than waiting for 1 year and just selling at $60,000.

We know that the bitcoin cycle keeps repeating itself and that doesn't just talk about ATH but also the correction and recovery processes that occur in the market all the time. If someone understands investment correctly then during the correction occurs they will not move to sell but instead take advantage to buy. Inaccurate knowledge will cause them to experience panic and FUD continues to disturb their psychology so they try to cut their losses by selling. In fact, if it's not excessive, you can take it calmly and wait for the recovery process if you want to sell it.

Knowledge can lead someone to see opportunities whether related to buying or selling because we have to be clever at seeing existing opportunities. Even though selling under certain conditions can only provide a small profit, compared to selling at a loss it is actually very unfortunate, so anyone can target their investment to run as desired.

Almost many people do this and when the capital we have is small we definitely try to find ways to manage our portfolio in other coins. But along the way, taking an approach to other coins doesn't give any results, especially coins that don't have a large market capitalization. Some people buy and hold the bitcoin assets they own for the long term because they believe the long term is the chosen step.

When you are able to read market movements regarding Bitcoin, buying and taking profits in the short term will be much better. Because not everyone targets long-term investments and there are still many who invest in the short term to generate profits.

In general time beats timing, but that doesn't necessarily mean that is always the case: some smart people could get an idea about when could be a good timing to buy and a good timing to sell because bitcoin's volatility offers many opportunities. I simply prefer to hold because I'm not good with trading but let's not forget that you are actually losing money only when you sell. If someone bought bitcoin at $69k technically are losing but in a few months things could change ::)

Bitcoin will continue to show maturity in the industry and it is also becoming increasingly popular among people who want to store the value of the fiat currency they own. There are always good moments in bitcoin every four years and even though those moments don't always match predictions. If someone begins to understand the journey of Bitcoin, then anyone will come and try to accumulate purchases responsibly according to the capital they have. Delay in getting involved in it will only make us fall further behind and actually make other people closer to the next ATH.

Bitcoin does not only talk about safety, risk or speculative, but also about how we can maximize this moment. All forms of investment are risky, unsafe and quite speculative, but it all depends on how people can maximize it. Fear will only slow us down from achieving success and don't expect success if you don't dare to take risks nowadays.

Majority of the investors might not be able to make profit from buying and trading bitcoin for short time but if we are to look at some of them their are few who are lucky sometimes in aspect of making profit why buying bitcoin to hold for short period of time.

Let’s just use those who bought bitcoin when the price was between $40,000 and now the price finally hits $50,000 and above within an interval of weeks, such people can be able to take some profit from that kind of trade, it’s only those who bought and the market happens to turn the other way round that usually lose it all to the market.

Bitcoin is the best long-term investment of all investments in terms of returns, but we should also examine Bitcoin's track record so far.
And to reach Bitcoin's new ATH, make sure it will happen, and with this we must be able to assess and have confidence that the price of Bitcoin will continue to rise and exceed its new ATH and so on.
And long-term Bitcoin investment does not actually aim to reach ATH but has the belief that after the new ATH Bitcoin will exceed the previous ATH and so on. So what I mean is, the best long-term investment in Bitcoin is without a set time limit.
And we will only execute when we feel that the highest price or the highest price we want has been reached to make a sale, after passing several ATHs with much bigger profits.
Bitcoin is the future and to reach that future it takes a very long time or until we are old, so Bitcoin is the best investment for the future, or old age which will make our lives feel comfortable and also financially secure with our children and grandchildren.

    Yes you are right in that matter, Bitcoin in that matter is for real estate which as time goes on the value really increases and does not decrease. That's why if you save it for 10-15 years, it will for sure have a high value and you can be rich if you just keep saving it every week or monthly.

This way I look at Bitcoin as a long-term investment and many do. Most communities in this cryptocurrency field have been doing this for years.

Investing in Bitcoin anytime before the halving is a good start for new investors. Bitcoin investment is actually "get rich slow".  ;D

I get your point but that's not totally true, for sure short term investors have a higher risk compared to long-term investors but it doesn't really mean that they are not earning a huge amount of profit on their trades, there is leverage trading allowing them to earn huge amount of money depending on the movement in the market. If the market has a lot of movement like today short-term investment could easily earn huge compared to when the market doesn't have movement so it doesn't really mean short-term investment doesn't really earn, I guess it is just riskier.

For sure I would still prefer long-term investment because it has lower risk, also with Dollar Cost Averaging you could almost guarantee a profit as long as you're going to sell in the long term or on Bullrun. Still, all of this is not a guaranteed profit because we don't really know if Bitcoin is still going to exist here in the world after a few years, something could easily come up or happen then Bitcoin could disappear or drop its market. We don't know maybe war, zombies, etc.

Well, whether it is a long or short-term investment, the investors can make their cool money, it all depends on the experience of such investors and the approach of investment they are engaging in which you didn't put into consideration. It is fine that we HODL when it comes to Bitcoin but what if the investors want to be squeezing the juice out of Bitcoin bit by bit? These are the kind of investors that maximize their earning potential in the market. They only look for the possibility of the market to move between 1-6 months and take the opportunity in it. But the moment they see it showing the bearish outlook again that can run for days or weeks, they would remove their money and wait for the time it will reactivate a bullish pattern again.

I see this as a smarter way of earning in the Bitcoin market, but it takes better expertise to be able to achieve the best goals through it. All that matters is for us not to miss out on the world's cake presented to us by Bitcoin, regardless of the approach, money can be made. I now advise those who are investing in Bitcoin at this higher price that they should wait for a correction, though I do not know if that is possible strongly anymore, however, the right reading of their charts can guide them about that. Or they make use of the DCA style. Enough opportunities have been missed by them already, they should not push it too hard this time without proper guidance.

The majority of my portfolio is long-term but I also agree with you that short-term investing can also be very profitable. But it will be much more difficult and riskier than the long term.

Long-term investing is the right solution for everyone and is much safer. But if someone is confident in themselves and has solid knowledge then it is possible to make short-term profits by trading. We can't trade, can't make money in the short term, which means other people are just like us. I have also seen some people making money daily from trading and I really admire them because they do something that very few people can do.

Yes definitely, if we see the history, then Bitcoins have always given huge amount of returns in long term. Suppose if someone have bought some Bitcoins at around 2017 when price was around 600$, now he could have made 100x the money he invested. But sadly at that time, no one showed trust on the coin. Similarly if we try to invest now, then who knows after few years, the history will be repeated again? Hence, it’s always beneficial to invest in Bitcoins for long term.

You are right, bitcoin will always bring profit if we invest for long term but if you or everyone is expecting bitcoin to bring huge profits like bitcoin has brought to many people in the past then it is not correct. Bitcoin is getting bigger so we can't expect it to go up 100x or 1000x in the next bull season or the one after that anymore. Just like capitalization from 100 million to 1 billion is easy to happen, but from capitalization to 1 trillion and we want it to increase to 100 trillion in just a few years is impossible. Bitcoin will still be profitable if we hold it long enough but the profit will no longer be x100 or x1000, we should be aware of that and not aim too high.

wrong , there are some of short termer that made more money than those Long term holder
because some of them are selling their Bitcoin after a while then transfer their funds to moving altcoin to
double the chance to earn then after a while and bitcoin dumped ? then  its easy to repurchase mate.

What OP’s predictions and concepts might be different from ours, but one thing is certain, bitcoin investment offers the huge benefits when you hold it for long term. However, investing in bitcoin without prior research and studies and instead follow what majority are saying is an act of laziness and irresponsibility. You will never gain your goal in your bitcoin investment if you don’t know what you are doing in the first place and you only rely your decision making from other investors. Yes, bitcoin is risky but it can also be worth of our money, time and efforts if you deal with it the right way.

Short-term investors can achieve great profits, but only if the timing is right. For example, consider buying in September 2017 at $4k, and then selling in December 2017 at $19k. That's a very decent and pretty fast profit. Or buying at $19k in December 2020, and then selling at almost $60k in March 2021. For some, 3x-5x profit is quite a lot and can make a big difference. But the problem is that it's very simple to determine the right buy and sell points in hindsight, whereas making the right choices when it's all happening is much harder. So investing long-term is just less risky because you don't need to buy and sell at the exactly right moments.

Looking at the history of Bitcoin, many may think that the best time to invest in Bitcoin was when Bitcoin was created. Back then no one was interested in investing in Bitcoin as today everyone is interested in investing in BitcoinThere is still time to invest in bitcoin but we have to invest in that bitcoin for a long period of time may be four to five years or eight to 10 years. Bitcoin was worth around $600 in 2017 seven years later today the price of that Bitcoin has rocketed to $50,000. Similarly since the price of Bitcoin is now above $50,000 dollars if we invest from now and hold for 8 years or 10 years the price of Bitcoin can be $200k dollars.

You are right they are easy to understand for experienced people and altcoins are good for investment. But bitcoin is everyone's first choice for investment, the value of altcoins increases depending on the price of bitcoin. If you look at the movement of the market you can understand that when the price of bitcoin starts to decrease then the altcoins go down. I think altcoins are better to hold after bitcoin.

Investing in Bitcoin must be a long-term investment. The longer the investment is, the more benefits it will reap, already the halving will take place. This halving is very likely to increase the price of Bitcoin to the highest level, because all the investors are busy holding Bitcoins only. Blocks are coming down and more countries are supporting Bitcoin. There are many reasons why Bitcoin is at its highest price, such as the approval of Bitcoin ETFs, which has led to Bitcoin's highest price before the halving in 2024.  So the peak bull run will be in 2025 which is the period that all investors are waiting for.

I'm still not brave enough to keep altcoins for a long time, but I'm not so afraid to keep Bitcoin for a long time, especially if the goal is to use it as a long-term investment. I will not spend more money and time with altcoins unless it is only for a short time or for a short time, because when altcoins experience a decline in price it is always more difficult to get better returns in the market. Meanwhile, Bitcoin is very different from any altcoin in that it can return to its previous price more quickly if market conditions are good.

Investing in Bitcoin usually requires long-term planning and execution of that plan. Short term investing is very much like trading where we cannot expect big profits or huge profits in this short period of time. As the investment period increases, our expectations from the investment increase. Those who have invested for the long term and those who have managed to hold their investments for a long period of time I think everyone is successful in investing and they will always advocate long term investment. We sometimes take wrong decisions in investment due to temporary volatility in the market. Market volatility is a very natural thing if we cannot accept this volatility then where is the value of our investment. Accepting that the market will continue to be volatile, then we have to invest and think about holding that investment for a long time.

I don't really agree if altcoins are stored after bitcoin, because i feel altcoins will have a big impact on financial health if they are stored for too long, waiting for the recovery of altcoins is difficult for the neutral point that we bought at the beginning, A buys coin X 1 dollar and keeps it for a year and sells it 5 years later the price of coin X returns to the purchase point of 1 dollar (when the market is red and green after 5 years). I think it would be detrimental to A because he kept his money for too long and was not profitable even though the price returned to the initial point.

OP there is nothing bad about holding bitcoin for a short and long term. It all depends on your investment plans and budget.  Shirt term holders are mostly traders who take advantage of the market situations on daily basis to trade and take profit. In some cases, they make good cash from their trading on daily basis and in some cases, they make loses that is how it is and as for long term holders, they also make big profit as long as they have a long term plans and also have good holding position in the market.

It is good to invest in a long term basis because that would not bother you irrespective of how the market condition is at that very moment. If you are holding for a long term, your investment is guaranteed because the price or amount at which you bought the bitcoin might do like 10x bigger than what you envisaged for. So therefore a long term investment plan is a good idea for anyone who plan holding bitcoin for the time being.

I don't agree OP that short-term investors face more losses than profit. We are talking about Bitcoin here, not altcoins, and aside from that, the price is volatile. If we can make a buy during correction and then sell when it pumps back, there are no losses but profit. Losses just happen when you are in a panic but if you can take control of your emotions and play the volatility of the market, you are totally making some money even more than those who hold long-term. It is the strategy, not the time. And besides, both of them may suffer losses if mismanaged.

For some reason, Bitcoin is already at its pick and at that has achieved a lot of recognition to the point that its price is considered to be too expensive for many small investors but then the ability to pick interest in Bitcoin before the ability to invest in it, which is the highest motivations for many of us who are long term investors and holder, we choose to build knowledge ahead of the opportunity to buy and with that knowledge, we can't consider any price to be a too high price and also we know that as long as the is cash left over to buy Bitcoin,  we may not need to hesitate to do so since we have the basic knowledge of how long term mindset works.
In the next two years to come, the current $52,000+ price which is seen as a high price at the moment will become a low price in the future considering how the value of Bitcoin would have increased then, so there is no time is right for Bitcoin buy in position as long as you have the cash flow to do so and be comfortable.

That is the advantage of bitcoin, even if its price drops to the bottom, rest assured that you will see it recovering and even reach a higher price instead after a couple of days. But with altcoins, the recovery rate is slow  that’s why most of altcoin investors end up losing and regretting.

Bitcoin is for long term investment. While it can be profitable even for just short term, then the more that you will get significant profits if you try to hold it for years and decide to sell only when your desired price has been achieved.

I also agree that every Bitcoin investment should be long term at this point because we know there’s no way we will wake up to see 2x in a short time as we have passed those days when Bitcoin was worth a lot less and could easily be worth a lot more in really short time. People who hold short term still manage to benefit (especially when a huge money is invested), but the long term holders have a better ground. 

Short term can produce small profits and may adjust the capital we put in and we also have to monitor the market to sell bitcoins. But what becomes a problem is when people who run short-term investments don't understand how to invest correctly, which makes them panic and sell bitcoin during the a price decrease occurs. This concern is what makes some people think it is better to make long-term investments and people do not need to always check the market.

But if we are able to be calm and have a good analysis of Bitcoin's journey in the market then taking a short-term investment pattern is also good. In addition, we can make a long-term investment percentage from the short-term investment process that we undertake to generate profits.

It is indeed good to do long-term investment in Bitcoin, because later you will also get big profits, but it will maximize your profits even more if we buy in the bearish season and sell in the bullish season, of course we will get more. especially if we can do short-term trading, even though we get a small profit, it happens over and over again, but for short-term trading we must have adequate skills first

You are not wrong Bitcoin is not for a short period of time. It is a potential currency to hold for a long time if you hold it for a long time you will get a nice benefit from it. Because Bitcoin is a golden opportunity for the future. So if you want to invest in Bitcoin then do it for long term.  But definitely invest as much as you can afford. Because there is not only profit here but there is also a lot of risk so no one will give you financial advice in this field.

While that can be a good idea, it's also worth noting that you need to enjoy the short-term benefits of hodling, selling a small portion of your bitcoin stash isn't a bad thing albeit it's not a good idea, you can always do it to buy yourself something nice and you can always buy more bitcoin along the way if you're doing DCA so while you're also hodling for the long-term, you're not also getting bored doing because when you do this. I know not a lot of people won't agree with this but I'm just here giving you the options that you might want to consider so you're not just hodling for the sake of hodling. Money will go away and come back but there's some experiences out there outside of bitcoin that will never return.

If they want to trade bitcoin much better if they go on futures trade since they cannot get what they want from bitcoin if they aim short time profit since bitcoin is really best for long term investment. There's a lot of potential for bitcoin to grow and to gamble with it on short time trade will not result to any good returns as they have more chances to get broke with this since market is so volatile and might they can't handle the market stress.

If those investors really serious to hodl then they should accumulate at whatever price they bought their bitcoin since at the end their target is to invest for long period of time and they are not doing it for short term so we must set our mind that we should never get affected if there's correction will happen and stick to our goal which is to hold since this could give us more effecient and more appealing result.

Bitcoin investment is for a long time holding and most of new person that came into crypto market industries without making a proper research may think Bitcoin is a sharp sharp business of making money, without applying the number one process, which is patient, as an Bitcoin investors or traders have to applied the mindset of patients to sell or buying, because the entry point and exit point determine the profit return in the business.

Or maybe they are just eager to earn , meaning they enter this market just to make easy money and they don't understand the essence of holding that will bring them more generous income than short term.

but this does not mean that there are no money in Short term since there are some who knows how to cut losses or know when to sell and when to buy. in short Buy low  sell high strategy .

Right now the BTC price is $51180. It's the perfect time to invest in crypto. If you follow Plan A, planA- Presents the upcoming value of BTC will be $100000, whether it will be or not. No one can't predict about the crypto market. There some people say that the price will be $500000. If someone follows their predictions. Nothing else. They cannot change the market movement at will.

So no one can't change the movement of the market.

I appreciate with you. Because the market is pumping under goes. I hope it will decrease little more about $48000 or $47000. Few time later the price will increasing $58000 or above. It's more exact. It's my opinion. I think if the market value decreasing then people should or BTC holder buy much more BTC. It's the right time to invest btc. Already many people sell their hold for that $52000 is not a little amount. But BTC indicates the future price $100000. $100000 is the dream figure for all crypto traders. Best wishes for all crypto traders.

For those who are new to crypto, of course they have to do detailed research in order to be able to invest correctly when they have decided to invest. To be able to make a profit in investing in Bitcoin, we have to be able to hold it for a long period of time and we have to be able to know when. the right way to enter the market and you also have to make decisions not in a hurry so as not to make the wrong decision when investing.

This is so true. The thing is, after learning about what Bitcoin was, its history, certain events, and all, I realized that yes, Bitcoin is and was created as an alternative to fiat money, but it is also an asset. In fact, assets are usually alternatives to money, aren't they? So, if Bitcoin is an asset, one should treat it as such. Do you buy gold/ land only to sell it off the next minute? So why would you buy Bitcoin only to sell it off the next minute? That really is a loss, and that's why and never believed in trading instead of hodling Bitcoin. I've always been an advocate of long-term investments and holding of Bitcoin.

So, as OP said, keep your Bitcoin holdings and hold them for a long time.

All investments have the potential to gain large profits in the long term with a certain time target. Short term is not as good as long term although short term investments can also make a profit.
Bitcoin is used as an investment asset because its value is able to survive based on investors' experience, only long-term ones are always in a profitable situation because of high price returns.

I view the behavior of investors who hold Bitcoin as different. Buying demand increases when market prices are high, such as current market conditions.
Some investors collect Bitcoin slowly and routinely at each phase. Both are the same because the final goal is only one, profit.

Invest in altcoins for short term goal while bitcoin is certainly for long term. However, with the fast approaching bitcoin halving, I suggest focus more on accumulating bitcoin and maximize your bitcoin portfolio. That’s the best way to gain massive profits when bull run happens. But never disregard potential altcoins if you have some. They can be less trusted but they can also give us some unexpected huge profits when we least expect it. I suggest diversify bitcoin some trusted altcoins, you can chose to do that if you have spare money that you can afford to lose from investing in altcoins.

Long-term holding has indeed proven to be a successful strategy for many Bitcoin investors, as demonstrated by the remarkable growth you highlighted from 2023 to 2024. Patience in the volatile crypto market has often been rewarded with substantial returns.

Investing in bitcoin for short term might be more risky as it is. Because of its high volatility, we can’t expect that it’s price will stay moving upward so most likely, if you want to invest in bitcoin for short term, make sure to buy bitcoin when the price is at its dip so you can gain decent amount of returns once you decide to sell. Unlike bitcoin as a long term investment, regardless if the price is high or low, it’s still a good buy because you won’t be selling your bitcoin immediately but hodling it about 5-10 years is good enough to reach exceptional amount of profits.

While investing in bitcoin may both profitable for short and long term, but it requires long term planning for you to make it work. Not only you must be financially prepared, but most importantly, one should also be emotionally prepared so that if ever your investment does not work based on plan, at least you wouldn’t be affected too much.

Why should people experience big losses when investing bitcoin in the short term as long as they understand the correct investment process. Bitcoin will not make people experience losses if invested correctly because we have a moment of recovery after the correction process occurs. So as long as people understand the bitcoin journey correctly then I'm pretty sure no one will experience losses.

Bitcoin is indeed more reliable if invested for the long term because we can get big profits after the ATH arrives and almost many people try to hold bitcoin for the long term, not for trading. But some people also try to make short-term profits because they understand how. Patience and calm will provide a way for anyone to make a profit and this applies not only in Bitcoin but everywhere. Patience and calm are the keys to success.

One thing is certain that those who don't invest in Bitcoin for long term don't have patience that's why they don't or can't afford the patients to hold, accumulate and wait for the perfect time to sell their coin.
One thing I can agree to is everyone should invest in Bitcoin but the way things are and many people aren't capable of waiting for longer time, so I don't think everyone can be able to hold their Bitcoin for long term, like I already said before that there are more people that doesn't have patients to hold their coin for long term. Moreover long term investment is the best way to achieve big because we don't know when Bitcoin will rise and if we start buying now and hold it for long time we will gain enough profits.
Yes correct, let's buy now and start holding, even if we don't have plans for Bitcoin we should start now to make plans for buying Bitcoin because Bitcoin is like a life time changing project that can change life of anyone who's interested in Bitcoin and also have patients to hold and accumulate it for long terms.

There is obviously a good reward for being patient for the right reason and where Bitcoin investment is concerned, that reward is a higher return on your investment. It is very okay to hold for short term and withdraw when you feel  you've made profit that demands you withdrawing your investment and probably reinvest (whatever your investment plan is) but holding for short term is one way of depriving yourself huge returns on your Investment. We understand that the Bitcoin price is highly volatile, this is the reason we have to take advantage of the Bitcoin price volatility. Hold for long till you begin to make abnormal profit.

You dont even need a suit sayer to tell you that Bitcoin is the best investment option, and also the most reliable and trusted with a long term holding. There is never a time you can compare short term investor and a long term investor short term investors are basically or popularly know as traders. they buy and sell in bitcoin or any other coin with the chance of making profit withing the shortest period of time. It is recorded that investors who only trade coin on a regular basis always loose alot of money compared to those who invest for long term.

We must be able to distinguish the initial goal that we want to achieve now is investment or trading because after all this determines your intention and focus here.

When the focus is on investing then it is only natural that we must remain focused on holding on to what we have and trying to increase our current portfolio because it is an important thing that we must do but on the other hand trading is also not the wrong choice if you really know how because after all when trading and investing it has their respective risks.

But in this case we must be aware that if indeed we are a beginner then it is highly recommended to hold bitcoin and invest for a slightly longer period of time because in addition to the risk being slightly smaller than trading this can also hone our ability to continue to learn bitcoin because there is a really very good process that can be undertaken in the investment that we do.

There are many people who separate two funds [1] for investment and [2] for trading, but what I do is better investment than trading.

One of the most important things in investing is to test their patience, if not then they can break up halfway, this is also actually not easy because of the long time then they will have many obstacles where they want to sell when they have 50% profit even though it is not worth it, but still in bitcoin the longer it will be better especially by continuing to grow the portfolio by means of DCA for example.

Yeah this is true beginners are better off investing than trading because to test trading skills requires courage by taking high risks, in trading you will also need a long time to understand all the basics needed while in investing we only need to HODL and do it the DCA way then it's that simple.

Of course Bitcoin is better to hold long term. Those who hold Bitcoin long term have had much more success here. Short-term Bitcoin holders may not gain much, instead they face more losses. Investment should be in such a way that after making the investment there is no need to look back on that investment later. If the investment is not looked back after investment then the person can definitely hold for long term.

Selling a small portion of your Bitcoin isn’t a bad thing, but I don’t think you can liken it to Short term trading because you can be a long term trader but you only sell a fraction meanwhile your goal of holding for the long term doesn’t change. But then I think that selling even a fraction of your Bitcoin can bring inconsistency. I can’t think of a better way to explain that but instead of investing an amount you may need its fraction before the harvest, then stake less (stake what you wouldn’t need to depend on).

Everyone dream is to invest in bitcoin for a long term but there are some factors that making people to invest in short term. And one of the factor is lack of money to invest for a large quantity and because of that many people left investment and depend on the signature campaigns and hodle for the next bull market that is coming. And some ncw they don't have extra money to do other things they still send the money that is coming from signature campaigns so the investment is not much.

And now that the price is on the increase many people are saving because they have seen that they are making profit from the small investment from the campaigns. And when we come to bitcoin investment it is good for a long term investment because long term investment will make more profit by the investor.

Short term holders can make money too but this time, the higher amount you invest, the more satisfying that you'd do. This is the reality now in investing in Bitcoin and those that are cycle investors understand that and that's why they're trying to research and look for altcoins that they want to invest. But if you're for stability and security, there's no other better crypto than choosing Bitcoin. You're at the right hand if you're going to invest long term in Bitcoin.

True long-term is the key to getting a lot of profit from bitcoin, but the thing is, if someone needs some money, or, let's say, they really need money because of energy, and the only money that person has is his holdings, because you've gained quite an amount in holding bitcoin, you can use some of the profit and do what you need to do. What I'm saying is that based on my experience holding bitcoin for a very long time, I frequently cash out some of the fraction of my holding because I really need it or I want to buy something. Do I regret that? No, because I'm making sure that I still have a huge amount of bitcoin holdings and am not stopping from investing. It's not bad to use your holdings, but don't dry them down or use them for very important occasions. Anyway, it's your own money; it's up to you how  you use it.

Your words are reasonable and proven, the price of Bitcoin has increased a lot this year compared to last year. At the price I bought Bitcoin at last year, I would make a lot of profit by selling Bitcoin now in proportion to my investment. But even then I am not willing to sell bitcoin right now. I want to hold my bitcoin investment for longer term. Because Bitcoin has much more potential in the future. Many friends I know have become very financially independent by investing in Bitcoin and holding it for the long term. So I think all investors should invest in Bitcoin and make long term holdings. There is no mistake that investors can get the best tie by investing in Bitcoin for the long term.

Its not really bad at all to decide selling a small portion of your bitcoin since that is your profit that you are willing to dispose and what's important there is you still have balance to use for holding since there's still good thing to happen with your investment.

No one would surely disagree with the idea selling a small portion of your profit since sometimes we can't avoid to do that especially if we need some extra cash and there's little balance available to pull out.

But for sure we can add more funds again once we have extra cash to be used for investment on bitcoin.

It is true that long-term investment is the goal of investors.
Bitcoin investment is more comfortable if it is long term. The obstacle in making this type of Bitcoin investment is impatience.
The average Bitcoin investor who is committed in the long term already knows the track record of market prices.

The opportunity to earn huge returns from Bitcoin is getting closer. Holders just need a little more patience to arrive at big targets.
Market activity, especially Bitcoin, is very active now on several large exchanges. They realized that the time they had been waiting for would soon arrive.

but I believe mate that even if you are new here just reading all the details and the history of
bitcoin once you know the meaning of Holding? I am sure that you will be able to understand that you only
need to Buy and keep the coins and wait for at least months or years before taking your fruits because if
you will keep standing being new and will wait for another time to invest, sometimes your chance of profiting
in sooner time lapse and you need to take another couple of years to taste that product of your investment.

actually sometimes it is needed to sell while its high and then buy again when suddenly there is a dumping as we don't know what will come in tomorrow.

but what is important is that we knew what we are doing

I am doing this actually for some time now and indeed this increases my holdings of course.

as long as you have the funds in which willing to risk then its always a best option and action.

OP, every investor has their own decision, but your advise on bitcoin being a long term investor is in the right track, bitcoin was not created for quick profit but for people to benefit if the persist to keep for a long-term, though since bitcoin upward movement from 40k- this 51k plus that it is right now, there are people who have been benefitting in a short term, the people that has been targeting the market and understand how it works, though I know that know one can predict the exact price in the long run but people still benefit by investing a large some if they notice their is inevitable events that can push the price in shot period of time.

It's not a precise rule. There are exceptions. We just advise people into investing for the long term, because we know this market is unpredictable on short run, therefore unexpected dumps and dips may happen anytime without further notice. So, investors have to be prepared to hold for long periods of time, if necessary. However, a lucky investor can start his BTC investment on the exact moment Bitcoin begins to skyrocket, therefore he won't have to wait for too long until selling his coins for profit. It's a hypothetical example of big profit on short term.

In the end a short term investor can make the same profit a long term investor is making. It all depends the moment they began investing in Bitcoin. For long term investors, the worst case is when they have made their Bitcoin purchases during previous ATHs, what means they have to hold for years until being able to profit from their investments.

You're right there, and that's what other Bitcoin holders actually do. These are the long-term holders who don't care about what happens in the market as long as they are only focused on selling what they hold after 5 or 10 years.

And this strategy or method is, for sure, a good plan or goal for a long-term investor. And this should really be what newcomers in the field of crypto space should also imitate, right?

Now, Bitcoin was created as an alternative currency, kinda like a rebellion against the traditional banking system. But here's the thing, it hasn't exactly taken over the world for everyday purchases yet. It's kinda like a fancy sports car – cool to own, but not exactly the best for your daily commute.

There are hurdles, like high transaction fees and not many stores accepting it. So, while individual Bitcoin transactions between friends might be cool, widespread adoption is still a work in progress.

But hey, that doesn't mean Bitcoin's future is boring! It's constantly evolving, and who knows what cool stuff it might be used for in the future. Maybe it'll become the go-to currency for space travel, or maybe it'll power some crazy new invention. The possibilities are endless!

not only long term holder trader also get the profit if he is an expert trader and If he can get success from trading every time. But there are very few lucky people who can consistently profit from trading. and at the same time it is very risky. that's why long term holding is very important and effective strategy to always stay relaxed and earn a good profit. But to hold for long term you must have separate source of income and only then it will be possible

It goes without saying that Bitcoin investments must be held long-term to reap good returns. Because short-term bitcoin investments cannot expect much profit, Bitcoin is a volatile currency that fluctuates in price. Although it is very profitable, it also carries a lot of risk. Most newbies rush to invest in Bitcoin but get emotional after some time when the price drops. And instead of taking risks, they sell their investments, fearing losses. We should remember that the most important thing in Bitcoin or any investment is patience and trust. If you want to get more profit by investing in Bitcoin, don't panic and hold on for long with patience.

The reason why long-term is better to invest in you don't have to bother yourself about the market and you won't be expecting profit so fast from the market but when you plan to make a short term investment it is possible to have a specific time you may be expecting profit and can be when the market can go dip, at this point you may decide to sell out of desperation that may likely put you in lose. Hodlonh Bitcoin is the best way to make profit from Bitcoin.

This is true, it has already been proven that if you buy bitcoin because of FOMO you might end up losing money as the price of bitcoin might not continue to be rising the up ward the same way it was running as of the time the investor decided to invest in it.

Although their are some short time investors who are lucky enough to be making big gain from the bitcoin market base on how they have been able to manage the market, which is they have been buying when the price is low target then why price goes up high and realize a little profit they will sell and wait for the market to go down again it might take time but they wait buy back and sell again, which if they continues like that they might been able to acquire lot of profit compare to how much it could have been if they hold down their initial Bitcoin value as of when they invested on it.

Yes, those who can wait patiently are the successful investors in bitcoin investing. One of the benefits of investing in Bitcoin is that the investor can profit when the price of bitcoin is high but bitcoin should be considered as an uncertain investment and it is really bad to be disappointed when its value can go up and down. The topic of bitcoin is not relatively new if a long term investment is made in bitcoin now there is potential for huge returns in the near future. Needless to say there is a lot of profit potential in a short period of time but you need to have the ability to wait in time.

Thanks for this information because it's the best decision that anybody that is hodling Bitcoin can take, unlike some altcoins that are  not reputable to hold on the long term, Bitcoin is better if held on the long term because it's price can pump and dump on the short term, after some time the price will pump far more than it can dump, so if the holder did not sale during the short term of price fluctuations, he will gain far more when price increases and reaches ATH in the long run. As bull run is nearing it is still a good time to continue hodling because price will keep increasing on the long run till it reaches the destination of ATH, then a holder can sale some and make many times profit on investment.

It's better late than never as they say, so if someone hasn't invested yet, it's better if they do it now than not doing it at all. After all, if you don't invest today thinking that you have missed the train, you will regret it if Bitcoin manages to hit $150k within this exact cycle, if it isn't a lot, it's still a 2x profit from this point which is enough because you can't expect to become a millionaire with Bitcoin investments anymore as we are passed that phase now.

An investor thinking long-term shouldn't have any issues starting their investments even from this point, they can simply use the DCA method to invest so that if the market goes down a bit later, before the halving and the bull run, they can invest more to have a better buying average.

Yes, there’s no rule that says invest in bitcoin for long term, so whether you like it short term or long term, the important thing is you are investing what you can afford to lose. However, majority do prefer invest in bitcoin for long term most especially that we can’t predict how its price moves in the market. So in order not to lose and sell at losses, just invest when prices are in dips. Although its price is always a good buy, but the challenge gets more high if you enter at a bullish market so you have to wait for years to be able to sell in profits.

Whether long term or short term then it would really be always your choice because no one would really be the one who would really be teaching you on what are the steps that you would take. If you are going for long term or short term. It would really be just that depending with your own decisions since its your money from the start. Dont tend to listen with others suggestions because nothing beats out that you do make your own decisions basing up with your own analysis rather than with others.

Some do stick for long term just because they dont have that sufficient knowledge with Bitcoin trading and just tending to hold for long term because they cant bare up with the risk and some do really just that
make those kind of dealing with price volatility because they do really much love or prefer on seeing profits in a short time period rather than on waiting up for too long.
There are ones who are really that be able to bare up with the risks and there are ones who cant. This is why it would really be always fall down on someone preference or choice.

It can indeed be done and actually it is a pretty good strategy.  Still to do something like that then we need to realize that it requires a large enough capital so that I don't think it can be done by ordinary people who do invest with the strength of a modest amount of money because after all we must be aware that something like this requires a good financial condition for ourselves. If we don't have it then we can be sure that we will be rolled up and will lose only because the plans we do are less mature because we don't just focus on one part even though we lack the finances to do both.

Because in the end this is based on the process and we if you want to succeed in bitcoin then indeed we must recognize the process and defeat it because after all it is a series that we must conquer because in the end in the investment that I feel now selling and buying is a very easy thing but holding back is sometimes very troublesome because the temptation not only comes when bitcoin goes down but when bitcoin goes up it will really test the mentality we have.

There is no good advice for a beginner other than investment. I say this because I am also very new and with the experience I have had in the past few years as a beginner, investing is very good to do compared to trading because after all we have to understand risk management and at this time it is more worth it to invest than trading for them beginners.

It comes down to their trading skill some are good at day trading or short term trades, so we couldn't really say that they could never achieve anything big.
What if they are making use of the Bitcoin price movement on short term trades to gain more Bitcoin rather than just holding their Bitcoin?
We should never look down on those short term investor, they could always reinvest their winnings to gain more.

I agree with you. Given Bitcoin's historical trends and growth trajectory, a long-term strategy may yield higher profits.

In this case you must be able to distinguish about investment and trading because both of them even though it is the same thing related to bitcoin but in terms of how it is 2 different things and we must be able to distinguish that.
When talking about investing, it is actually not too feasible in my opinion to associate it with trading and vice versa because the concept is different and the way it is done is also different.
Indeed, in this case trading is also not a wrong thing and we are looking for some of the best strategies to smooth out the plans we have built but on the other hand in the end we also have to understand that investing and trading are 2 different things.

I will not refute your opinion about day trading and others but on the other hand in the end we must realize that sometimes everything has its portion and surely the risks are also more different so that when the concept of trading is discussed with investment then it will not be connected.

Bitcoin is certainly for long term but it’s hard to control the people on how they will see bitcoin as an investment. But either it’s short term or long term, there will always be present of profits. However, you can never maximize your profits if you go for short term investing even if you say you start buying bitcoin when there is price correction. It’s still a lot different when you hold your bitcoin for couple of years because we all have seen how it’s price keep increasing every year, and in every year or two, a new all time high comes out. So we can safely say that long term hodling will gain higher probability of profits than those who only made it for short term.

I think I'd say I didn't explain well. I was talking about those who are just selling, not those who actually sell because they've seen profit. If you see a chance to take profit, take it; it doesn't affect your consistency because that is exactly why you invested. But if you invest and it's not yet time to take anything but then you already want to chop off a little and take out a fraction. That can make you unserious about the whole investment.

What would happened to Bitcoin if everyone will hold and no one that will execute using this?

Cryptocurrency meaning we need to use this by all means but of course I will be stupid enough if I deny that reality about me Holding Bitcoin and some altcoins now.

So it is our preference but must know how to circulate as well.

Bitcoins are usually held by billions of people, some held for a long time and some held for a short time. And many of these hold and trade for a desired period of time, people all over the world are busy in different ways. So my karma and your karma will never be equal that's why no one in the whole world can hold bitcoin together. People will sell their bitcoins out of need and urge or basic need, if everyone holds bitcoins then its price will stay the same. Widespread investor positions include trades, holds and long-term holds.

You can't change the objective of Bitcoin that is designated on a short term and the long term investment.
Every Investors goal is to make profits hopefully a huge profit. Some could be weak while some are fit enough in risk bearing so it is always better if the investors stands at the sides they could bear and besides investors financial needs to solve their problems differs and so their investing strategies also differs. Some would just want to have certain value of income in addition to either diversify their incomes or other reasons. It is just about making profits.
Do you ever think if Bitcoin would reach a maximum Ath that it wouldn't exceed above the volume? With the your above mentioned values how about those supposed to hodl their Bitcoin til it hits $1,000,000? For how long do you expect the investors to keep hodling when they are in need of finances? Well, it is possible for lot of Investors to hodl their coins til then but must be one of the Investors whom are alternatively financially bouyant from a different source of incomes.

It's not always good to hold back too long. I agree with you. Take advantage of any opportunity as much as possible. Make a target plan, because you also have to know when you have to release the Bitcoin you are holding. Take advantage of crypto fluctuations to continue to profit. We believe that after ATH there is another time when the Crypto price is cheaper then that moment is good enough to increase the amount of Bitcoin. That's what I do, but I understand that holding longer has less risk. But I understand people have different ways.  IMO

Many of them don't reinvest their gains, they spend it on looking rich and they miss to buy Bitcoin before it starts pumping again. Investors that do short time investing don't make profits like investors that hodl for very long. They can decide to sell Bitcoin in profits but the profits don't get reinvest and then the won't own any Bitcoin while Bitcoin is pumping. If you're trading frequently you can make profits but also you can lose too if you don't know how to trade very well. Investing in Bitcoin for long time will make you to not be worried and you can do other things to bring more money so you can use them for buying more Bitcoin. Being in the market regularly will make you to have a short time mentality for investing and it'll make you miss out of bigger profits opportunities.

Basically, investing and trading have different levels of risk and knowledge will be one of the most important parts so that someone can minimize risk. For beginners, it is better to invest compared to trading because investing is a little easier to carry out and not too difficult to learn. Trading is not recommended for beginners because there are many things that need to be learned beforehand and if trading knowledge is inadequate then it is feared that they will have difficulty facing the risk of loss.

Holding in the long term is much easier as one does not need to check market conditions all the time. Therefore, if you want the risk not to be too big, then buy and hold the bitcoins that we have. Long term can also provide big profits and investment will also be much more optimal, especially for people who do not have the ability to analyze the market.

That is true. I also think that risk always depends on these levels of Trading and Investing. Moreover, I personally divide these things into two levels, one is long-term investment or long-term trading and the other is short-term investment or short-term trading. Here I think the risk level of long-term investment is much less than the risk level of short-term investment.
Because when one trading is go for long-term trading then he can start his investment with just acquiring the fundamentals knowledge and if he want to start the the short term trading then he have to acquire lots of things like fundamental knowledge to fundamental analysis skill and technical analysis and these are so complicated thing for learing. And it always take too time. So I would like to also say that for beginner it is always best to invest with long-term strategy and controlling the risk level use the DCA method.

I generally know that investing in Bitcoin for a long period of time can only earn more benefits. But comparatively if you start trading the risk is high as well as the possibility of loss is high because the market is always going up and down. But those who invested in Bitcoin at the beginning of 2023 at about 18 thousand dollars at the time. But now currently in February 2024, the price of Bitcoin touched $52.3K. So you think the price of Bitcoin has almost doubled in just one year, of course I think long term investment is the most profitable, and I don't like trading, I like long term investment the most.

That's what we should do and always have a strategy to make a profit. Create two ways so that we can be productive in investing, implementing long-term investments with a much larger percentage while the rest can be invested in the short term to generate profits. There is no need to worry too much about risks as long as we really understand how to make investments correctly because in fact risks will always be there and our job is only to minimize them.

When involved in investing, having knowledge may make it much easier to minimize risks and people will not panic even if the market experiences a sharp decline. It's not easy, but as long as we want to learn properly, nothing is impossible because knowledge is actually the way to achieve success. I agree that beginners should try to invest in the long term and control the level of purchase risk using the DCA pattern. After their knowledge and experience mature, they try something more challenging than before.

There will be no parable like this because after all, any renewable technology will definitely feel the pros and cons, especially if it is beneficial to some people and detrimental to the pre-existing system, then surely this will bring up the pros and cons that are used as a debate. Likewise with bitcoin, which is still a matter of pros and cons for many people so there will be no parable if bitcoin is held by everyone because forever it will not happen.
We must understand if in the end there are words "if bitcoin is held by everyone" then indirectly everyone agrees and wants to adopt bitcoin as an alternative for them including the government and some people who sometimes we don't realize their influence in the world.

This will not happen now or in the future because the government will not do that considering they already have their own system where banks and fiat will be their superiority so it is impossible for them to accept another system where bitcoin with its decentralization is against the centralized system of the government.

Not everyone who invests in the short term experiences losses, there are still investors who gain profits from short-term investments in Bitcoin, but usually they are professionals who can read market direction, for example some investors who invested before the Bitcoin ETF was launched.
However, I agree that for ordinary investors it is better for them to invest long term in Bitcoin to maximize their chances of making a profit. Investors can invest for a period of 5 years or more and then they can sell their assets to secure a profit. Even though it takes quite a long time, for maximum profit I think it is worth it.

If you hodl for long term investment purposes, you're like staying away from stress caused by the volatile market that mostly affects short term hodlers. It is also safe from making wrong decisions that most short term holders do. You can also maximize profits which you cannot on short term investments. That is why big players love to play long term because they anticipated volatility to drive prices up in the future.

That's how wonderful investing on bitcoin for long term since we can get away from big stress brought up by market pressure and simply we just put a target on when we are ready to sell our hodl coins. Although this might not be so easy for other people but if they are consistent on the market and realize that there are more better opportunities for people who hodl their bitcoins for sure they would love to participate on it and ignore the idea about trading bitcoin for short term.

Big players like the idea about to hodl since they want to escape on more technical things and just want to see the result in future especially when bull run cames since this scenario usually happen on bitcoin and when it reach for another ATH then I guess that's a sign or can trigger their decision to take profit and enjoy their gains.

correct , because checking the market from time to time sometimes will give you wrong impression and
will end up in wrong decisioning , sometimes you will sell at losses.

this is why we are kept telling to learn HODL because that is not just the safest but the most functional way in dealing
with cryptocurrency.

I believe everyone ought to have this mindset of bitcoin and a long term investment, the reason why it's advisable not to gamble with our investment (bitcoin) is just simple and self explanatory, if you claim to be too smart and sell so fast without waiting then it's likely other investors will gain extra profit compared to the profit short term investing will bring. I basically think why most people will not like to hold for long term is just because they lack finance and it's tempting when you're lacking money and you have an investment. That's why it's advisable to always have an emergency funds that will stand as help instead of the investment, always invest what you can afford and never try to act smart by buying with huge amount and expect extra profit for short term, bitcoin investment is just different and unique so before investing for long term you must consider some common factors.

No one can predict prices accurately and that's why most people choose to invest long term because they don't need to check market conditions all the time. If analytical knowledge is inadequate then undertaking short-term investments can provide much greater pressure and it is feared that we will try to make decisions based on mistakes.

Until now, I still hold holding and even if I am involved in short-term investments, it is only with a small percentage. Because I feel that long-term investments will be much more profitable because we can wait for the ATH to get maximum profits. The level of security is also more guaranteed and we are not under pressure when the market experiences a severe correction and each person must have their own way of handling the investments they make.

Investing a long time doesn't remove volatility and it is wrong if someone feels no stress.

Volatility will affect for the long term and short term as well. However, if we are holding for a long time, we don't need to worry about the temporary dump in the market. But we still need to understand when the right time for taking profits. There is a bearish and bullish season, we must ensure to target for taking profits in the bullish season although it is for a long time holding.

Regarding the stress, it depends on the mentality and knowledge. If we can manage our mentality, we won't feel stress whether we are holding for a short term or a long term. But to manage our mentality we must have enough knowledge, so we understand the risk and the potential on the Bitcoin investment. When we can deal with the risk, we must feel comfortable for holding a long time or a short time. This requires good knowledge, we never know how to deal with the risk if we have lack of knowledge.

if everyone hold bitcoin for long-term and nobody is ready to sell its bitcoin, that will make the price of bitcoin to skyrocket, because the demands will be very high, and you don't need to be praying for bullrun because the bullrun is now be determined by the holder's, the more bitcoin becomes scarcity the more the prices get more increase, so therefore is not advisable for the price of bitcoin to get depreciate when their is much holder's, but that will caused a challenge in crypto market, so in summary...its obvious that the demands also one of the basic things that enhance bitcoin growth in the market.

Well, I guess a lot of the bitcoin owners are actually holding their bags right now, though there also traders who are executing their usual trading activities  mostly with altcoins. If you can see, bitcoin is still increasing it's value. Now, if everyone will just hold their bitcoin, I think the price would increase even more as the demand will increase with the supply being so limited in the market or otherwise the price would stabilize due to lack of trading pairs/activity in the market or using it as a mean of payment for service and goods. Bitcoin's value and volatility are mainly being determined with these market activities.

Just because you mention the year 2023, you should think more deeply that the holdings of those who have traveled so far in Bitcoin in the past are bigger. Historically Bitcoin holdings have benefited the most, preferring long-term holds. Because the risk is less and the benefit is more, it is possible to be successful by investing wisely than just patience. Basically those who invested in the near term between 2013 and 2014 own the biggest gains now that they are big.

Totally BS, and the ones investing from end of 2021 so much longer then 2023 bought at 65k still are not at their entry price. So what are you saying now ??? How longer investments how better??? NO it depends all at your entry price  thats all  !!

This is a good advise as some people loss the better opportunity of earning by waiting more and more in a Desire to earn more money. Actually we should plan a timing and value at which we will sell our asset because no one knows that which is the higher value ever and which is the lower one so planning in such situations will prevent your money from loss.

Determine the market condition so if find the time and price suitable for buying then buy it before it reaches to the new ATH. Bitcoin is moving more higher and higher and you will have idea that as bitcoin is increasing to reach 53k$ so every altcoin will also elevated therefore find an opportunity to get profit.

Yes there are many types of investors who have different investment plans some invest for long term and some invest for short term. Most people invest in Bitcoin for a long period of time because if they do not invest in Bitcoin for a long period of time they cannot expect the desired results. The price of Bitcoin was $42000 a month ago and from there the price of Bitcoin has increased to $56000 today.So if someone had invested in Bitcoin back then and held onto it, he would have made a lot of profit today.

Now the price of BTC is $57140. It's amazing pumping today. It's unbelievable for today score. Already many investor already change their mind to sell their stock. It's positive for long time investor or holder. Keep it up your investment.

Yes, there are many types of investors who use their strategies in different ways and with different targets. but I would say definitely to make a long term investment because only long term investment can give one a decent profit. Bitcoin is currently pumped a lot and it is growing rapidly so those who previously invested in Bitcoin when the price of Bitcoin was low can now sell it at a profit if they want to.  We can predict that the price of Bitcoin will increase much more but we cannot predict exactly when.  So we must plan a long term investment but if we get a good profit very quickly we can sell it.

I do not have anything against holding, but I will only hold when I have a very large quantity, and then I will have in mind that I will have a large profit. That is the only way I see that I can make money from holding, and if I should invest a large amount, mine will not be short, nor will I prefer to trade for now since I don't have my desired amount to invest in Bitcoin. because I will need money to sustain myself. I know it is not every time I will make a profit, but when I trade, I will make a small amount of money.

Then, maybe later in the future, when I invest a lot, it will be for a very long time. and once I am holding, I will not bother trying to transfer any money there until I make a profit, Does that invest in bitcoin for a very long time? Some don't even have a job, and after investing, that is when you will see them end up selling their bitcoin just because that is the only thing they have no job doing—investing in bitcoin and not just trading but holding. How do you survive when there is no other source of income?

And was that invested when it was still $30,000? They're smiling now because, in calculation, they are making a profit.

Best way to invest in bitcoin for long term you have taken a good initiative because as bitcoin is getting popular day by day it will go higher in near future even if you buy now you may become very rich in future.

Apart from the profit that can be gotten from bitcoin in longterm, I think it is still good to have a mindset of bitcoin being a longterm investment.  This will help you to be able to hodl well and not expecting quick profit from the investment , this one of the important of having a longterm mentality.  

Their is a lot to gain from bitcoin and I think goal for most investors is to go for longterm investment to make good profit. Longterm investment should be what investors should go for.

The people who hold bitcoin for a short period of time are not the real investors. Yes, I am aware that some people may have reasons for selling their bitcoin when the price is not too high, but some people don't really know what bitcoin is. To start with, you should realise that bitcoin is a very powerful and wise investment; despite its drawbacks, given the current state of affairs, it is among the best options available to investors. Some people are also impatient, which is why they sell their bitcoin when they notice that the bill run has just begun, believing that the price will drop again if they don't sell.

Understanding that bitcoin is a long-term investment with fluctuating prices is essential before making one. You should also be aware of the cryptocurrency's worth in The reason this world is so unbelievable at the moment is that many people don't think coins like this will become very popular. However, those who have patience and have been holding onto their coins for a long time are the real investors, and they are the ones who will benefit from this time in history. For this reason, it is said that being patient is the most important quality in life.

It seems you have forgotten the Bitcoin potentials, when it comes to investment Bitcoin is the best, with your dca strategy of accumulating Bitcoin no need timing the market, you buy at intervers regularly and buy wholesomely when there a downward trends. Bitcoin investment should be seen on long term perspective because it has the potential of appreciating it's compounded value over time.

Based on my own observation and speculation, as we are already in the bull season and the bitcoin price is already performing wonders, which is just like most of us expected it to be.

The altcoin season is also around the corner, but as you have said, people should be careful about the kind of altcoin they choose to invest their penny in as its volatility is higher than that of bitcoin.
 
The price will surge real quick, like I have pictured a few Altcoins to be nearing breaking a new ATH this bull season, but I'm not much of an Altcoin fan this period, although a few of them are also worth our investment to give them a try.

I believe that most people in this market believe that Bitcoin price will increase many times more than it is now in the future, but not many people dare to buy at this time, why? I think a lot of people always have the mentality of wanting to buy at the bottom and sell at the top, and they think that Bitcoin is creating a short-term peak, so they wait for a big correction to come. This is completely reasonable, but we cannot know when it will take for Bitcoin to adjust, whether it will continue to go up and then adjust, and the price at that time will only be approximately the price it is now. Do we buy in? Or continue to pay the price?
Besides, the next psychology that makes it difficult for us to hold for a long time is being distracted by the ups and downs of the market, and we think we can control the market so we try to buy and sell ​​continuously to optimize each wave of the market. And at that moment, we will be eliminated from the game by the market, from holder to trader.

Bitcoin will continue to rise as the bitcoin halving approaches, so investing now is the right choice for the long term. The current high price of Bitcoin is not just an illusion, so buying at $57k is still cheap, if you buy $100k later you will definitely regret it.

However, to avoid bad things, always use cold money buy with a DCA strategy using 10% to 20% of your income and hold bitcoin for a long period of time but always study crypto and always update the news first before buying. Investing in bitcoin will create financial freedom in the future and that is certain if you look at the history of bitcoin from the four-year cycle.

Investing in Bitcoin and holding it for a long period of time will definitely bring profits in the end. When the price of Bitcoin hit rock bottom in 2022, most people who had a basic understanding of the cryptocurrency market knew that its price would eventually rise and there should be no doubt about its huge demand and bright future. But it is not possible for everyone to invest and hold for a long time. You mentioned investing in bitcoins and holding them for a long time, I'm curious if you actually held bitcoins yourself? And those who can afford to hold on, definitely hold on to it for a long time. I have a lot of desire to hold my own but I don't have the ability to invest and hold for a long time.

And they are the type of investors that knows what they are doing , they care about
what will happen today because the funds they have vested are the amount they knew can afford to lose.

Let new comers have their way but we as crypto Hodlers are known of our dedication
and knowledge to let the market do its homework for us.

You are right that Bitcoin is the best investment. Most of the major investors in the cryptocurrency market invest most of their money in Bitcoin and if you invest in Bitcoin and are not able to hold it for a long time then your investment will have no value. So before investing in Bitcoin one should have a long term mindset and then invest.

Bitcoin investment is an investment where you can earn double profits if you hold the investment for a long time. Let me give you a small example to make this clear. Since you are here or on this forum you must have noticed that in October and November 2023 the price of Bitcoin was below $30k. Since then, the price of that bitcoin has increased continuously until today I saw that the price of bitcoin has touched 60 thousand 357 dollars in the coin market cap. At this point, the price of Bitcoin is only $10k away from the new ATH. The only purpose of saying these words is that those who bought bitcoins below $30k and patiently held on are double the profits today.

Bitcoin is the most reliable investment among all the cryptocurrency, Bitcoin gives you rest of mind when you invest into it because you can't lose unless you sell your coin below the price that you bought it because of fear as the market starts to correct. Bitcoin gives profit to those individuals that have patience and are willing to hold Bitcoin for a very long time. You can make profits in short term when you invest into Bitcoin but it can't be like the profits of someone that didn't sell early and was holding as the price of Bitcoin keeps increasing. Bitcoin is the best investment and also the best currency right now therefore selling your Bitcoin too early isn't a wise decision. If you don't sell and continue holding you can sell your one Bitcoin for more than $1 million in the future.

Yes Bitcoin is the best coin to invest in crypto market. You must invest in Bitcoin if you want to be risk free. If you suffer a loss while investing in Bitcoin, you can easily recover the loss. But if there is a loss in altcoin then it will be very difficult to recover. This is proof that those who invested $69,000 in Bitcoin in 2021 will almost recover their losses. You must learn to be patient before investing in Bitcoin. If you do not have patience then you will not be able to hold the investment for a long time, if you cannot hold it for a long time you will not be able to make a profit and may face losses.

Investors who have invested in Bitcoin have generally made the most gains in the past. And in December 2022, the price of Bitcoin was 15.5k. These 15.5K people who have invested in Bitcoin this time and those who have invested in Bitcoin in the past are currently reigning as more and more profitable. Their benefits will be highest in 2025 because the price of Bitcoin will be several times the benefits then. So an investor in Bitcoin will never face losses if he invests for long term. According to the Bitcoin cycle, the price of Bitcoin begins a halving cycle every four years, during which the price of Bitcoin rises to its highest level.

Maybe it will be like that in value terms maybe it will add up at some point.  But the truth is that we also need sacrifices to get the best results. In terms of calculation, it looks easy as you said. But you should know I need superpowers to do that. Maybe talking is very easy, but mental strength and patience are not in everyone's possession. So everyone sometimes has their own beliefs by adjusting their abilities. They have their own way to achieve what they want.

Bitcoin is becoming so popular day by day that hundreds of investors from rich sounding countries of the world are investing on this Bitcoin and they are holding to become bigger competitive wealth in future. One of the main objectives of investment is to hold holdings that the longer one can hold the holding, the more likely it will be profitable in the future.

While Bitcoin is undoubtedly a solid investment choice for long-term holding, have you considered diversifying your portfolio with BNQ tokens from BitNasdaq (https://www.bitnasdaq.com/)? Check it out.

Just like every other currency, Bitcoin can be treated and should be used as either an assest or a form of investment, more essentially bitcoin can be used a form of exchange. I believe the introduction of bitcoin was beyond the use of an assest or a form of investment but primarily as a medium for exchange of value just like every other hard currency, it's values will definitely be on the increase due to the direction in which the world is tending to(web 3). With the help of AI and technology. The value of bitcoin in the long run will definitely increase.
  
 Also in conclusion, Bitcoin is an all round asset used for different purpose. A store value, payment mediums, for transactions and can also be traded since it's a valuable commodity and we all know that anything that has valuable can be tradeable. It can be used by everyone, so far it's not used for fraudulent activities then you're good to go. Bitcoins utilities shouldn't be one sided, rather users needs to expand their knowledge about it and thereby bring more life in Bitcoin.

And it's no secret that if we see firsthand if someone comes in and invests in Bitcoin, if he is disciplined, then firm to his investment settings in the long term, I think it will automatically present a significant growth opportunity that at the end of the day is directly felt is the owner of the investment itself and it will at least be a benchmark whether we have been able to achieve financial independence personally.

Well. I agree with the use of the DCA technique above and current conditions in this moment maybe that there are many of us who lost when investing in BTC before the halving occurred and generally the losses are due to our own fundamentals that are too quickly shaky and too responsive to unnecessary issues even though if studied more deeply it is only an ordinary decline like two days ago and of course also long-term ownership is the main key in Bitcoin investment and the bitcoin halving is very close in sight.

Yes Bitcoin is the most reliable investment coin among all cryptocurrency coins. But if you invest in bitcoins and you fail to hold it for a long time then you may not expect anything good from your invested bitcoins. So the prerequisite for investing in Bitcoin is to set the right goals according to your plan and then invest and hold for a long time. Bitcoin investors must have different plans with their investments so they continue to invest in Bitcoins according to their plans. If we want to achieve something in our life then we have to set a sign and act accordingly to reach the goal. Just like in bitcoin investing everyone should set a price target for bitcoins then when they reach that price you should sell them otherwise you shouldn't.

Those who invest in Bitcoin and are patient can gain a lot from their investment but those who don't have patience can't gain much because they invest in short term.

Don't do shilling here my guy, that's not the way we discuss things here. You could've ended with the recommendation of diversification but you added a token and that's not going to site well with a lot of people in this forum. Also, I don't recommend diversification when you don't have a lot of bitcoin since bitcoin's got more potential profit for you in the long-term, it's best to stick with it while you don't have a lot of money to invest yet. But if you've got the money to do diversification then by all means do it, you've got more excess than you should've and that's okay to do.

He doesn't have to be God to speculate but the only issue I see here is that the guy is too lousy about it. He was just preaching buying and buying but didn't weigh the risk of buying. About the speculation of a thing, you will have to say something regarding your view and analysis of the market, and there are also speculators with about 95% accuracy. Yes, you read it rightly. They do not have to be God to get to that level but to continue training until they are very good at it. Such traders are few but they exist, and of course, a human being like you.

Now, what I fault about the guy is that he is not considering the high price of Bitcoin and the potential retracement/correction, and the extent to which the market could fake investors at this high level. This could also cause uninformed investors to lose because I have seen some of them buying at high levels and saying their investment lost more than 10% pretty fast which scared them to close it quickly to avoid losing more. Needless to say, Bitcoin will not earn so much for investors anymore in this season but for futures traders, so the hyping of it by him as though one can still make a life fortune from it is uncalled for.

I agree that he over-hyped bitcoin by saying that simply investing in it can change our lives and he also failed to mention the risks of investing. But I also disagree with you about what I bolded. It is true that bitcoin's profits are not as large as they were many years ago, but the profits that bitcoin gives us are still very significant if we compare them with other assets. In addition, earning more or less profit will depend on the mindset of each investor and not entirely on the assets we choose.

for a long time now people have understood that if you want to invest in Bitcoin then you must be ready to be able to hold for a long time and that way you will see the result over time bitcoin investment all depends on time. if you are not patient enough to wait before selling you have missed a chance of actually making money and diversifying your portfolio might not be a bad option to explore but you just have to be very careful because some options might crash.


From the way things turned out around the FTX and others a lot of points that he thinks he will consider might just be full of hype and at the end of the day the project will crash but Bitcoin is always there to survive whatever challenge it will come with. and that is why everyone is suggesting Bitcoin, but people are always looking for fast money and they feel those options will give them what they want from crypto. and it is better to invest in where your mind will be at rest than just making a random investment if you understand the market well then you won't have a problem with choice.

Of course if you have a big quantity of something, it doesn't matter if it's bitcoin, stocks, cash, whatever, everything is easier. If you have, let's say, one million in one asset, and that asset in one moves up just 2%, we're talking of $20k of gain. Many people don't even own $20k in their bank accounts. If you are a whale you are playing a different game.
