I BUY   I BUY   I BUY. As Grayscale keeps causing dips, I'm buying till I buy at the depth 😅 or I'm out of cash 💸 🤷‍♂️🙋‍♂️

This feel yummy 😋

Some are preoccupied with the fact that the Bitcoin price is falling after the ETF approval, but those who are experienced are buying as much as they can, considering this period can be their last dip. A holder sees every dip as an opportunity until he achieves his goal whereas an inexperienced investor is preoccupied with why the market is dumping.

As for me I don't want to know what I'd causing the dip, I'm just buying my bitcoin with DCA and a little lump sum, but I'm still waiting tho, cause I don't really know if we would have more dip or of the bear would come, so I won't be taking any aggressive action, but I'll continue with my DCA, besides whether I buy small or large quantities during the dip the major thing is I still bought with DCA.

What is a last dip. I don't really like to think like as tho there is a last or first in my bitcoin pursuit, I always feel approaching the market as tho something new could happen is the best, cause It help me to be prepared for anything since I'm not expecting anything, all I have are my income, emergency and reservations, strategies , my planned out senerios, and bitcoin price. That's all I see, I consider no other thing, cause we can't really have a sure prediction on bitcoin price or next movement.

Mostly weak holders would fall for this pre halving dip, I just feel its too tricky, cause why now, just after a little uptrend we start having a dip, and Grayscale just started dumping, I feel some really biggie woggle happening. But for me it's our advantage, nothing feels better than buying the dip 😋.

But with Grayscale dumping, we are expecting a pre halving dip event.

Can't wait to buy the DIP AND HODL 😋

Yes, the last tip is my favorite: “Invest only in Bitcoin.”

I might agree, but what's funny is that on the very same day that the OP created this thread advising people to invest only in Bitcoin, he also created another thread that says "pick only 2 altcoins invest in." Lol. So which is which? Invest only in Bitcoin or we can also invest in altcoins but we should limit it to only 2?

Sometimes people are inconsistent. They contradict their own statements or advice. They say one thing here and another there. What's funny is that the inconsistency happened on the very same day. Perhaps it's the eagerness to just give recycled advice.
I really find it hard how you to fail to understand simple English words, if I'm not mistaken I said if you must you can have only two altcoins to diversify. Now how is that contradictory, not every one would be okay with investing in only bitcoin, so what is bad about  been open minded for others.
And so far I've noticed you really don't have anything to say about how we can save ourselves from scam this year, find some other thread to engage in and shut 🤬

Una remember the story of  squid game, how they just come out with hype carry people money run. I no go fit advice say make una invest in only bitcoin, but make una try do good research, infact if possible pick only 2 altcoins invest in. But know say na only bitcoin wey dey fully guarantee.

This is the thread your talking about right. I wrote this in my local language, if your from Nigeria you can interpret for others too, I said "I can't advice anyone to invest in only bitcoin,  but you can try to do your own research, infact if possible pick only two altcoins and invest in. But know that only bitcoin is fully guaranteed."

Now how is this contradictory.
Mr fundamental, I guess you need to get yourself some fundamental information before going around spoiling people's reputation in this forum and I think you have to recycle ♻️ your mindset. I'm not very good at English speaking thats why my post might seem a little inconsistent, but nobody but you complained and Instead of contributing or giving correct to a newbie, you felt like showing superiority. Show good examples, next time Mr don't know what the fuck to contribute 😠.
If anyone from Nigeria can also translate what I've said for everyone to see too.

update: grayscale holdings 523,516btc


Can anyone really tell why Grayscale decides to sell its btc on coinbase instead of otc? And this excessive selling of spot on coinbase is actually damping the bull run power, I smell something fishy going on here

just treat it as discount season. last chance to buy low compared to start of month before the growth towards 2025 ATH
I guess taking advantage would just be the best instead of worrying about what they are doing, dip buys rules 🥳🥳🥳

Imagine being somebody that sells BTC at $40,000 less than 100 days before the halving. Some people just can’t be helped and simply do not deserve the success that BTC brings patience.

I even include GBTC sellers in my disgust. Who cares about a 1.5% fee when you would then have to pay capital gains taxes.

Can’t wait for all the weak hands to hurry up and sell so we can resume NGU technology for the next 18-24 months.

HODL.
In your digist list, there are in my hate list. I just can't wait for a big dip, my emergency funds are inching for a dip buy, let them keep selling, you would soon hear all those regrets on social media soon.

Grey scale massive selling could really cause a dip pre-halving event, i don't seem to understand why there are selling this much and what their plans are with doing this,



It's a gift for anyone with spare fiat including myself  Wink
I swear, every one who is prepared has nothing to fear, my reserve are full, we wait for the dip.
#BUY THE DIP AND HODL 😁😁

OP I'm glad you brought this up; I've been a victim of this several times, so I end up creating more threads than comments because I didn't know how to join in on another thread, which was mostly because I didn't understand much of what they were saying in those threads, and at times I didn't even know how to construct my words to match the quality I saw in those threads, so I mostly backed down.


What I did to begin overcoming my phobia was

👉play along
When I saw a post that I couldn't add to, I would ask questions and start a conversation based on my level of understanding, and most of the time, some seniors would respond and offer you answers that you could respond to and start flowing with.

👉I go to the beginning of the thread and start reading all the comments one by one 😁. I did this until I became familiar with the flow of the conversation and knew exactly what they were talking about. And when I make a comment after this, I agree with them.


And whenever I notice a thread that is above my level of knowledge, I do some research to better my understanding.

👉 Do not be afraid to attempt. I've made certain statements in the past that have resulted in abuse and stern correction from some seniors, but I continue to do my best to follow up and learn. I've been inconsistent in my responses and comments at times, but I got acquainted to it over time, and I'm still learning today.

Just try, bro. Not much. 👍

Grayscale Bitcoin "Trust" is still holding, NOT HODLing, more than 500,000 Bitcoin and they have been selling more aggressively since January 12.

https://bitcointreasuries.net/entities/50

I believe if the selling contintues, and the market panics, that might cause a pre-halving DIP, no?

As plebs what do we do in this kind of situation? I can't tell you what to do with your money, but if you ask me it's = Buy the DIP, and HODL. Cool



However, panic sales are not a new phenomenon in the Bitcoin market, but rather a well-known phenomenon that occurs regularly. Such panic sales before bitcoin halving have been seen many times in the past and we will face such panic sales before halving in the future as well. Grayscale sells 500k bitcoins in the bitcoin market creating a market bloody moment despite the temporary negative impact on the bitcoin market.This is expected to be the biggest dumping in the Bitcoin market before the halving. This may be the best time to invest in Bitcoin for those who are planning to invest in Bitcoin and hold it for the long term. Therefore, those who can use this panic sale and invest and hold Bitcoin at the highest DIP will have a 100% chance of getting potential profit after the halving.
While we may well be aware of this, we can't always use the past to judge or anticipate the future and saying something as bold as 100% chance is as tho we are sure and can predict what would happen, over years now and under many circumstances bitcoin chart has behave in diverse manners that have shown unpredictability and as we may be hopefull about the halving event, we should also consider and prepare ourselves otherwise. If we become to bold about things and it doesn't go as planned expecially when you are expecting a bull and you invest all your funds since you are calculating a 100% chance and instead we have a continuous dip after the halving which may most likely or not happen, and then you are out of funds to take advantage of the dip because you must have invested all your funds with hope of a bear. Let's all try to be prepared for anything, since Grayscale started dumping, we really don't know what to expect and to remain uncertain is good for us, since we have the advantage to prepare for anything and can take advantage of any situation the market brings.

Yeah bro it's definitely buy the dip and hold, many folks have really hight expectations for a bull run and if this continues to happen we might end up with a bear market even if just for a few months or might not even happen, by now we all know that bitcoin has continued to tell us that it's unpredictable, things like 4 year theory and many other historical event can't be used to make much predictions again.

But in other not to speak as tho we are sure of a pre-halving dip, let's just be ready for anything, no need to wait for the dip, keep DCA going, and keep that emergency funds in Check cause it would really come in handy soon.


In other to be determined to succeed as an investor it requires discipline because if you are not disciplined then you can't really hodl for a long term because sometimes there might arise some circumstances whereby you are left with no choice than to tamper with your holdings maybe simply because you don't have an alternative funds that can sort issues at any challenging time and as a long term investor who is determined to accumulate as many bitcoin in your portfolio you ought to make sure that your income doesn't only generate from one source such that in a situation whereby the basic income you used for DCA doesn't come as regular as before, you can easily switch over to your other source of income to continue the DCA pending when your normal source of income reinvigorates.



Yes discipline is good as an investor, but just decipline alone won't stop you from tampering with you'd investment, especially in cases where difficult situation arise, St at times you add left with no choice than to tamper with your holdings, so as much as character is good, having a solid foundation for your investment is also good, like having a good emergency funds built up and also planning out various senerios out so you wont end up I  panic from over expectations and sell your asset. And having multiple sources of income doesn't guarantee that you would DCA properly, cause if your expense are as high as your income you won't t still  be able to allocate any part of your income to bitcoin since a large chunk is going to expense and you won't even be able to save up your emergency funds. So instead of getting multiple jobs it's good to find means to chunk down your expenses and know your numbers properly, this way even with one income source you are well prepared to Carry on with your investment.

Now is the best time for investors to buy the dip and hodl it with the expectation of the next bull run market when the price of bitcoin will be high.

While it is very good to be optimistic about your expectations in investing in bitcoin, as a newbie it is also good to have in mind that anything can happen out their and the market remains unpredictable, yes we are expecting a bull run but its also possible (even not with the facts that are available to us like the halving theory and all that) that things could take side turn and the market goes bearish and if you are overly expecting to make profits out of this bull run as an early investor it could cause you to lose hope or even become sluggish with your investment. What I'll advice is that you plan out and be ready for everything that could happen on the Market, have a set of different senerios planned out for every possibility that could happen for example based on how optimistic you are sounding your best case senerio would be for the market to go bullish and maybe give a desired price that you have In mind and a normal case if the market decides to remains flat with no much movement and a worst case if things go full bearish and against your expectations.

One thing beign preached here is readiness, we must be ready for anything since we can't full beat our hands on our chest and say that this would happen our that would happen. Your major aim now should not even be where or how the price turn out(unless you have already been an investor for a while and not really a newbie, but for the sake of this forum and ranking system I'll advice you as I see) but to continue with your DCA and build your portfolio to a certain level and your aim for profit would be after holding and investing for like 1-4 years, this would help you keep your eyes on the right direction and so you dont end up losing track along the line In your investment. Try to also build your reserves in case of emergency or even if the Market goes against you.

Stay safe, invest with the right mindset.


In this strategy I buy stocks or assets when their prices fall (sink) and then hold the stock for a long period of time in anticipation of a rise in price which helps me to profit safely from the creep market.I do this based on the idea that market fluctuations are temporary, And over time the value of the asset will increase and help to exit the market safely.This approach requires patience and belief in the fundamentals of investing. However, it is imperative for new investors to conduct thorough research and consider the individual circumstances of each investment before implementing this strategy. DCA treading is the better strategy for this' Buy the DIP and Hold '

I'm not really clear on what your trying to say here, but if your referring to dip buys, then you must understand that waiting for this dips could be a real problem expecially when its your only strategy and this could cause to miss out a lot of opportunities that you could use to buy more asset through DCA and more over you might spend months without even investing or taking any step cause you would be wondering which dip is the final dip, I've seen people wait for a dip that would never come and end up losing all the time they could have taken advantage of to start buying. And from what your saying it seems you're most likely a short term investor since you made mention of exiting the Market safely.

With respect to this, I hope you understand that the price of asset could consolidate around a point for months and at times lasts up to six months of fluctuations with making much move upwards, just like after bitcoin hits its ATH  if 68k if I'm not mistaken and dropped down to around 20k last year and it's starting to give us a little upward movement this year and has just dropped about 10k, so if you only buy on dips and maybe after bitcoin reaches its ATH you buy around 35k price you would still be waiting for that profit up till now, if you haven't lost hope already and sold at a loss and since you are a short term trader, you mostly likely won't have the patience.

But if you had rather given a DCA approach you would have accumulated a lot and be even more prepared for any bull run coming and you would have built quite the portfolio or stash by now.

The mistake most people dey make Iin cryptocurrency they feel every new projects is worth investing and they just take the risk of investing without making any research to be sure if the project is safe for investment or not. Make we learn to take things easy first to learn and not rush into, when we learn by making research to know more about wetin we won put our money to invest,  it will prevent one from making mistakes from entering all this failed projects we have.

If not for the knowledge that I have gather here in this forum, I know myself very well that maybe someone by now would confused me about some projects that is actually not as prominent as they claim it to be. Just this afternoon, I got a message from an unknown user telling me about how this bull run is gonna to be filled with a lot of chances and opportunity telling me that he has the spreadsheet of how the bull run is gonna go and I strictly told him to keep it to himself as he asked me to pay 25$ for it.

This forum has done a good job in teaching us a lot, most importantly 'TO DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH'. And that has been the key to save your self from a lot . Cause last last na ignorance this people dey use caught us, so if we continue to stay aware of most of their tricks as least we fit reduce and save ourselves from a lot of trouble.

Well, the post is not about ponzi, Op is talking about fake and scam project in crypto space. Our eyes don open for this country with different scams strategies but na so scammers dey improve on their approach on a daily basis and people still dey fall for them. Even today then call me using already outdated strategy wey Don cast. The guy say he's from Access bank and want to know if I have received my free 20k. I tell the werey say I no get account with Access bank and he immediately ended the call.

Omo I neva even hear this kind update before oh, you feel say e Don cast but e get many people wey go still fall for many reasons, and you know say the country dey put every man for desperate situation, so some persons no go see free 20k no try luck besides we dey used to gamble for the country, men fit gamble with even their personal information. Why I call am gamble na say, no how wey something inside them no tell them say na scam but my men go wan still try luck.

There is a tendency to always think of newbies as possible victims, and we try to guide them, but one of the main mistakes is thinking that it will never happen to us, so, overconfidence is what we have to take care of.

The best scam is the one we don't know about, it's obvious, that's why you have to stay informed regardless of your level of knowledge and experience.
Yeah newbies are mostly their targets and we do have a lot of them coming in each year into the crypto space, in fact some scammers would even be the one to introduce them to bitcoin just to scam them at last, there are improving every year on their tricks. At times I just have to say it, ' They are damn good'
535  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: January 24, 2024, 01:16:24 PM
IMO funding your emergency fund should come first. We should only invest once we have saved enough money for emergencies to cover future expenses for at least six months or a year. If you lose your job or the price of bitcoin goes down after you have invested, you won't have anything left with you. However, there might be adjustments to plans along the way. if you see any opportunity that you are certain will give you enough money if you invest in it, then it is worth taking the risk.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with what you say because if someone already has mature enough intentions and planning for long-term investment, of course the funding must also be mature enough. As you said, someone must have an emergency fund which must be prioritized as the main point before funds that will be used in their own investments for the long term. Because it is also very possible for an investor who invests in Bitcoin not to withdraw the funds that have been invested when market conditions become bad or when the price of Bitcoin itself experiences a correction like now.

So I think that's right, because that's what should be provided first before someone immediately takes investment steps with a simple plan, but not with sufficient consideration. I often liken it to a long journey with the preparation of two provisions that must be separated first before they are actually used in different places. So in this case the emergency fund is the main provision and investment funds are the second provision so that an investor can carry out his investment with enough discipline in something.
How much of emergency funds do you think will be first reached before then planning on beginning one's investment budget. This could be from your own perceptive but I see it as being a waste of time, where as I know how much of Bitcoin I must have loaded in my portfolio.
@teamsherry on his opinion decides to load his emergency funds for a six month space, do you know how much dips, call it a significant entry price that one should have DCA during that time.

One thing we should know, even in the process of saving that emergency funds, we still have to face certain problems which means we also have to alter the loading up of the emergency process, like still taken money from their to solve some life challenges.

I believe money from your cost of living has covered a lot of expenses and for the emergency fund is just there to cover up little more expenses, so why not convenient doing both.
While waiting for long time as much as six months to build your emergency funds before investing would be a really slow process for me and also a lot can happen between the time he/she wishes to start investing and the six months of waiting to build your emergency funds up before you start investing, since we are talking about possibilities, we could also consider that the newbie could get tired or even use the money for something else, or something more realistic this individual may start to be confused on when his emergency funds would be large enough to start investing.

So my advice would be same as always advice on this thread, start investing with DCA even if it's a small amount then use a percentage to build up your emergency funds, but let's also consider that this newbie might not know very well how to chuck down his expenses to save more or use other strategies. Let's consider this example, this person earns about 200$ every month and has not built or have any savings prior to him making his decision to invest in bitcoin.
And he choses to allocate up to 25% of this earning into DCA as a start, he could instead divide his allocations Into 10% for DCA and 15% for building up his emergency funds or vice versa.

This way his emergency funds would be ahead of his investment while he finds out how he can fix his overall monthly or weekly expense and allocate more to his DCA or his emergency funds. And when he feels comfortable with how much he has in emergency funds then he could either decide to allocate all 25% to DCA  and set hi.self on track or use that 15% for dip buys or any strategy he favours.

I notice that you are creating threads almost everyday. You are making yourself too obvious in hunting for something. You are not even proofreading your posts.

I think it is impossible for a year to have zero victims of scam. That's not possible in crypto. That's not possible outside crypto either. What we can only hope is that the figures of stolen or scammed money at the end of the year is much lower than the previous year. If that continues year after year, that's achievement enough.
And I've also noticed that any time I make thread you are always saying same thing, why not give an advice instead of saying stuff that has no meaning, so if someone is active on the forum it becomes hunting wow, then I guess your also doing same thing.
537  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the DIP, and HODL! on: January 24, 2024, 12:57:09 AM
Have always thought of this idea and why will anyone want to withdraw their money from bitcoin investment cause it sounds strange and at the same time it's likely that the money used for their investment was met for something else, with this kind of strategy and mindset how will the investment stand for long. People usually make this mistake when investing. I believe they see bitcoin investment as gambling where you stake your money and it's either you win or lose cause why will anyone want to invest in bitcoin for short term when they fully know bitcoin investment is for long term.

Many people dive into Bitcoin investment without really grasping how it works. Some end up selling their Bitcoin without holding onto it for long because they lack a proper understanding of Bitcoin investment. These individuals don't often have a plan to hold their Bitcoin for an extended period, thinking it's a quick way to make money.

When you lack understanding about Bitcoin investment, they wouldn't make good plans for their Bitcoin investment. This is why many newbies invest any amount they have with them, even if it's money they might need in the near future they don't always care. They like taking risks, and when they need the money, they go ahead and sell bitcoin and withdraw their money even at a loss when the price is down.

However, those who understand Bitcoin investment are more likely to have emergency savings, ensuring they don't need to sell their Bitcoin investments hastily. Having a good knowledge of Bitcoin helps in making informed decisions and holding onto investments for a longer period without succumbing to the temptation of quick gains or immediate financial needs.
depends on the strategies of the particular investor though. Imo before taking action in doing any investment always ensure to have a back up cash than to just go all in, you going all in. Have already given you the mindset that yah hope is on your investment and that can of investing are not normally for long time because you would be in eager in withdrawing  your investment.

That why DCA strategies is nice help you to buy different quantities of bitcoin mostly with cash you know you can actually leave for a long period of time. Then you don't have to bother thinking of withdrawing investment in an premature state. At that you be able to leave as an long-term investment. Not bad to withdraw some profit in your investment though but know that you are just withdrawing some quantity of it not

The back up plans you are refereeing to literally means emergency funds. Although i wouldn't prefer stacking emergency funds before thinking of starting an investment. To me it is better to do both simultaneously so as not to miss out on good opportunities to jump in the market. Imagine seeing Bitcoin so cheap that you can afford if you lump sum this week, do you rather prefer to keep your money fund this year and then use the next year money to buy when by then the price would have gone back up?

@Jayjuangee and everyone which do you prefer should be priority?

1. Building your emergency fund first before investing

2. Start investing immediately and leave emergency fund for later

3. Do both of them simultaneously
IMO funding your emergency fund should come first. We should only invest once we have saved enough money for emergencies to cover future expenses for at least six months or a year. If you lose your job or the price of bitcoin goes down after you have invested, you won't have anything left with you. However, there might be adjustments to plans along the way. if you see any opportunity that you are certain will give you enough money if you invest in it, then it is worth taking the risk.
While you may be right it's important to also know that the emergency funds and cash reserve can be built along the way , I think its better you start with a minimal amount like 10- 25$ for DCA then instead of been aggressive I would then advice you build up your emergency funds and start putting things in place, then when your emergency funds has been built to a certain level you would feel more secure about, you can now start using some other strategies that can put you in front of your game like lump sums and dip buys. And it's also good to know your numbers first before setting your DCA  plan so you don't put yourself on pressure. What I mean by this is getting to know your income and expenses calculated out, so you could either reduce your expense to DCA  and use the rest to build your emergency funds or what's left after your expenses. While one can never really know this numbers fully,  I think only you can do this part yourself. But start right away with DCA  you don't really have time to have everything in place before you begin your journey.
538  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Gaurd yourself this year against crypto scams on: January 24, 2024, 12:44:37 AM
It's a new year again and we all know what lies in wait, scammers are thinking of more innovative ways to decive and pollute the crypto community again and the one I hate the most are these wannabes that come and taint our fav coin image by creating not just inferiors but empty coins. They come I form of rug pulls, pump and dump all trying to scam crypto users who are ill informed. Not to long from now one new Influencer would start promoting a new rugpull, pls let none of us fall for such silly tricks anymore we are way past that already.

But any way let me remind you of how you can quickly save yourself from falling into these malicious snares.

👉get rid of your get rich quick mentality : I know a lot of persons would be expecting me to say read their whitepaper, but like I said this guys are getting more smart and making a good whitepaper with excellent road map and all would not be a problem to them. But thign I know they can't change so easily is their offers, they would always work on your greed, trying to entice you with silly offers that are so good to be true. I'm crying 😢 right now cause I also wished they were true, but sorry they aren't and don't fall to such this year.

👉 track their anonymously: so far I've noticed that most scams don't project any team members to the public and if they do they are mostly fake and this way could be very effective than reading a whole whitepaper. Check if the project has any real life representative and follow them up and see if they are posting in line with their big project in hand. Why i feel this is a good idea is because they are still afraid of the government too.

👉 yeah and  finally stop listening to influencers: many persons that have fallen for scam was found following one influencer or the other. Just know this people don't have you in mind and would promote any shit to get paid. Always do your own investigations if you must invest in any new project.

👉only invest in bitcoin 😎:  by know we all know that bitcoin is the only reliable crypto right now. And I have history to prove that, to me every other  project is not decentralized as they claim to be because they still have a kind of supervisory body even tho they claim not to, people did fund those projects remember and they would want something, nothing is free, no altcoin is completely decentralized.

 Whole bitcoin on the other hand is developed by the bitcoin community and even the creator has no hand in it again . Now there is something we can trust.


Stay safe yall. No scam getting us this year

If you could add pls do we have everyon3 at heart ❤ 💙

My fellow country men, we know how this things dey be for the country, e no go Tey now one new ponzi scheme go come out with their own offer, and you go see say many of our brothers go fall inside.

I know say many if us here know this things, but the things wey dey attract us fit dey different too, very soon one new crypto go come out, all of Twitter go dey shake, one Influencer now go carry am for head, you no go know say nah better rug pull dey wait their or pump and dump.

Una remember the story of  squid game, how they just come out with hype carry people money run. I no go fit advice say make una invest in only bitcoin, but make una try do good research, infact if possible pick only 2 altcoins invest in. But know say na only bitcoin wey dey fully guarantee.

Abeg my people make we no go give any body Free moni, besides Niger men we wise so make we apply that wisdom, even for our crypto journey too.

Make I no talk problem no come give the small solution I know.
 
How to identify this their scam  people wey come in form of ledgit crypto

👉 Read white paper: crypto project normally suppose undergo stages of development, so this project they get watin them dey call white paper which dey contain the formula on how the system go dey operate, their road map, e go explain how the entire network suppose function.

Any whitepaper wey u read wey no dey solve any problem, wey just carry promise full inside my brother commot body. The one wey we sabi bitcoin, give us proper written whitepaper. So any one wey no dey follow in the footstep na scam.
This scam people their whitepaper dey poorly written and if u sabi the eye read am u go know say na scam. Make I drop Link for better whitepaper so u go understand me.

BITCOIN WHITEPAPER

👉 Identify team members: most of this scam people dey like dey anonymous for their work, so one good way to check for their team members, find who dey real their fir goggle or not, even follow them for Facebook see if the real person dey post something related to the project. And they no fit scam with theri real face cause government go find them.

👉 beware of free things: most of this men dey like offer free things like say na ponzi, them go carry token give you for free or even some of the extra prelaunch coin for free. Carry for mind say nothing be free oh, unless watin then go gain go big pass your own.

👉check watin them dey talk: one thing I believe na say good business dey out to solve problems, so if this people just come dey talk moni moni my brother commot body na scam. This people fit even go as far as saying them dey launch for 20$ when their presal3 na just 0.003 like how which kind lie be this or even dey promote themselves as the next big thing. Just dey careful of such.

Like this I know say I don do better justice to this matter any body fall na en own.

If you get other ways wey u know say we fit use avoid this scam wey go happen this year abeg share for us.

but another issue could come from being in an investment for a long time, there can be senses of the cycles

What do you mean by senses of cycles, I'm not really clear on this. Or do you mean when a person has become so used to a pattern that it becomes hard to change or adapt to new strategies?

I usually consider that a person who has accumulated a lot of BTC might start to slow down a bit on his DCA and would more likely start to favor buying on the dip, but surely it is relative.  If  a person is trying to reach fuck you status (which is traditionally consider to be between 20-30 years of salary/expenses saved/invested), and he has ONLY saved up/invested less than 1 year of annual salary/expenses, he may still be fairly aggressively inclined towards DCA; however, if he is getting to a point of having 3-5 years of salary/expenses saved/invested, then he might start becoming more strategic, and if he is getting into the neighborhood of 8-10 years of salary/investment saved/invested, he might change his strategies even more.  Part of the reasons for the changes in the strategies is that any new contribution that he makes into his investment/savings is likely not adding as much value as is the price appreciation or depreciation of his investment.

Based on this I understand as a person continue to mature in his investment, he would continue to become more strategic around his allocations and strategies in bitcoin either to get more bitcoin(or reach a certain level of accumulation) or to make more profit from it. Like you've said before if a newbie is more concerned about profit on his first years of investing, it could either cause him not to hold much or even he might diviate from his DCA, since he has become more profit minded. But a more mature investor can be more profit minded cause he can now align his allocations and strategies in a way that would be to make more profit form his investment and the level they call fuck you status could also determine their approach to buying. So like we have agreed before our senerios and strategies might continue to change based on different factors and the one we know for now is individuals, I was also thinking don't you think things like market trend could affect how a more mature investor and newbie would approach the market and plan out their senerios, cause it would be hard for me to say that if all mature investors would consider a bearish market as worse case. An investor could also be in his 8-10 years range and still looking to get more bitcoin, so he might seem to be aggressive towards a bear market than a bull market an at this point he could have even reach his fuck you status as planned by him but just wishes to get more bitcoin.

Previously I had considered that ONLY getting to fuck you status would be the goal to bounce out of a DCA strategy, but part of the problem with that kind of analysis is that maybe a guy might have created an accumulation goal for himself of something like 10% or even 25%, but then if he ends up over investing during times in which the BTC price was relatively low, then he might feel over allocated, and if the BTC price goes up 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x or some other amounts, then he feels even more over allocated, and might become reluctant to invest more into BTC, even though he might still not be close to fuck you status.
This individual here shows a totally different characteristics from the once you have used from your other examples. In his case he feels satisfied with how his short term investment has been even tho he hasn't reached his desired level of accumulation in his portfolio. But if the bitcoin price corrects and maybe goes back to 2x, he might also begin his journey again or is it possible that to avoid cases like this we set a limit for ourselves to not allocate more than a certain amount in a month or weeks or at any intervals we chose.
Now this is major case of individual preference, another person might be fired up to invest more into bitcoin and even decide to increase his allocations from 25% to maybe 30% and decide to be a little more aggressive.
