You have a point but don't you think that due to the high transactions charges now and congestion in mempool that makes transactions to take much longer than expected, the relative idea of Bitcoin have been defeated because not too many people can be patient enough to wait that long for transactions to be confirmed and also pay high transactions charges.


Oh yeah, Bitcoin being a decentralized digital currency yet have gained government involvement through approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs making it possible for Bitcoin assets to gain security through centralized authorities, don't you also think that the decentralized nature of Bitcoin has been conquered due to the involvement of USA SEC in approving spot Bitcoin ETFs?.

That was a very fast scam and that's why it is advisable to check the exchange rate whenever it changes when you want to sell your coin to a particular buyer so that you can be sure of the amount you are exchanging at in case you are not comfortable with it then you can move to the next buyer and moreover don't sell coins to buyers that doesn't have at least 98% to 100% of positive feedbacks from people he bought coin from previously as it will help you to know the trust rate of the person you are dealing with. And again you can check the quantity of coins the buyer has bought from previous sellers if they can be capable to buy your own coin as well so it's from their previous transactions that you would know if you can earn some level of trust from them.

You also need to confirm that the full amount transacted between you and the buyer has been paid into your account and always use banking platforms that can confirm transactions as quick as possible rather than using banking systems that would spend so many hours before you get notification of a transaction you performed.

We ain't talking about cryptocurrencies and other altcoins here, shitcoins are mere pump and dumps as some investors seems to invest base on hype and FOMO and all that but however, lets not digress from our major discussion here as our interests should be focused on buying and hodling enough Bitcoin in our individual portfolio now that the price hasn't skyrocketed yet, the DCA is a profound way of accumulating at regular intervals as that has always been the bone of contention of our discussion here because the halving is quite approaching and afterwards the bull run begins so it would be so sad that as a bitcoin investor, you couldn't accumulate much bitcoin as a result of waiting for further dip which may not occur and at the end of the day you don't have reasonable amount of Bitcoins in your portfolio.

Using ones tongue to can't the teeths would be meaningless if you don't buy now and hodl because so many persons actually talks about buying and holdling here but yet if you check their individual portfolios you will find out that they have little or no bitcoin in there.

I quite agree with you on this because there are whole lots of people that got involved in Bitcoin investment not actually because they are interested but because people are more enticed by hype and trends so whichever way they see majority going towards with their investments, that's where they would focus their energy as well and just like you said there are still people that believes that Bitcoin has gained authenticity because looking from when it was invented and to still beat every other coin to become the most sort after coin means a lot to bitcoin investors and moreover the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs by SEC also aided more investors to be fully guaranteed of the security of their assets hence they believe it's authentic.


Yeah actually some investors keeps waiting for a dip and when the dip doesn't come forth they lose interest and doesn't buy anymore Bitcoin because they feel the price is too high even when it hasn't reached it's ATH and just like you said, the percentage of people buying Bitcoin is so low as many who buy only does that for a short term just for the price to go high and they sell it off which is a very bad habit because an investor that can't be patient enough to allow his investments grow is likely to incur more losses while trying to trade his coin after when the price skyrockets because even if he sells at a higher price he can't buy at a lower price again. Those part of the world that's shows more interest in buying and holdling Bitcoin are rather countries in which the adoption of Bitcoin has been legalized thereby giving all individuals in that part of the world the liberty to buy, hodl and trade with bitcoins.

One of the enemies of success is fear because sometimes the body is willing to make a bold step but the fear of failure always runs in our minds and when one begins to think about the possibility of failure then your morale has already been killed because you would find it difficult to be too forward with the decision you wish to take so in whatever thing we want to do in life, we should remove fear and have it in mind that whatever the outcome might seems to be, you will accept it in good fate so if you have that mindset towards positivity then one can surely do exploits.

Yeah, every one is believed to know the good and bad side of whatever decision they want to take in life and in gambling you're entitled to any decisions you want to take because it's your money and you work for it so you can choose whichever way you want to go about it no problem but a situation where you know the complexity of your job and to be spending it on gambling even when you don't win is a very bad habit because if you truly know what you're passing through before you receive your salary i believe you wouldn't be happy to be wasting money just because you are desperate of winning.

 A gambler needs to understand that gambling is associated with risk and winning is by luck not by force so a situation where one can't actually control their gambling habits then what ever consequences that comes along with it you would have only but yourself to blame and moreover, you have been advised but yet you choose to give a deaf ear so you should be ready to bear the brunt alone when the consequences arises.

I dispute the fact about what you said about gamblers who loses bets having less interest or quitting because I've seen most gamblers losing conspicuously but rather calling it a quit they continue with the believe that they will win on several attempts and this mostly happens to people that have won before as they are always the people that believes they can win again no matter how many times they have lost but someone who is new into gambling and tried on several occasions and couldn't win can easily lose interest and maybe call it a quit because he hasn't tasted the sweet side of gambling. Yeah no body that puts sugar in their mouth and complain it is bitter so someone who plays and wins will always talk good about gambling unlike someone that have been failing on several attempts.

For sure a right leader can really bring positive development in the life of it's subjects or followers because he would make sure he have the interest of the masses at heart and wouldn't take decisions that would affect the followers negatively. A place where there is no good leaders you will find out that businesses or investors doesn't come to such area because they would be afraid of the leaders taking a decisions that would affect their businesses or investments.

This story of yours about your friend actually reminded me of years back when my brother used his school fees to play gamble and there was no way for him to ask my dad for money because my dad has already given him money for his textbooks and handouts including his allowance for the month, so he called me and explained to me about the challenge he had so i actually gave him some money but he used it to chase his school fees loss and he still losed the more and that was how he has been borrowing money from his friends and tried to recover the school fees money but to no avail so what this situation is trying to let us know is that one shouldn't chase losses as you might keep losing more should you continue and one shouldn't borrow money to cover up a debt as you might run into series of debts while trying to settle your initial debts through gambling.

You actually spoke like someone who is lettered and knows what he's talking about because inasmuch as investment is concerned, making informed financial decisions is the key and a situation whereby an investor isn't informed on the right approach to follow towards his investments then failure might come to play however it is necessary for us to follow the right coin to invest in which is Bitcoin which is actually the trending coin amongst all cryptocurrency and it's future is now guaranteed due to the involvement of USA SEC on approval of Bitcoin ETFs so there's no need to be afraid of it's future anymore as all we need do is to buy and hodl more of it in our portfolio as that's the only way we can enjoy our investments in the long run.

Time doesn't actually matters as what matters most is the quality and the productivity of the information you are trying to create but regardless I think before someone makes a post, they first reads and understands the OP before making a post so perhaps, the time interval between when you made your first posts and moving to the next posts maybe due to rushing in other to complete your signature campaign quota should be around 5-15 minutes because even after you've made any post it is important to cross-check the post to know if there is an error in it before moving to a new post.

I absolutely understand your point of view that short term investments leads to emotional instability due to the fact that all your thinking or focus would be on the activities of the market whereas a long-term investor just buy, hodl and watch his investments growing from time to time so your presumption are quite correct regardless of the fact that some short term investors doesn't seems to know the dangers that are associated with short term investments and if the market isn't working to how they planned it then emotions might be involved and this is the more reasons why long-term investments is advisable because you can actually allow the Bitcoin in your portfolio grow while you feel so relaxed and a situation whereby you buy and hodl using the DCA, you may not even be aware that you have accumulated a lot of Bitcoin in your portfolio.

You see, no investment is 100% guaranteed be it a trader or a hodler as all are very risky and due to some unforseen circumstances that may actually affect ones investments make some people to only be interested in trading rather than investing and you can't actually blame them at all. If not that Bitcoin has a higher level of volatility do you think it would have gotten this far? Inasmuch as investment in concerned, every investor is actually interested in a coin that it's future is certain that's why a lot of the investors are involved in Bitcoin. Moreover, you need to understand that despite the popularity of Bitcoin, it's still very much young looking at when it was invented till now so it's gonna take few more years before it's authenticity can be visible for all to see though it takes patience for an investor to make profitable and long lasting investments.

Let the truth be told most people are just interested in short term profits because they're always afraid of the fluctuations in the price of Bitcoin in the market hence they always panic whenever they buy at a dip and instead of the price rising it still dips further but they fail to understand that every dip gives and opportunity to accumulate more and hold for long term profits.

There seems to be clarity in your explanation as I don't even know what some users takes this thread for, some kind of shitcoins and altcoins thread? If anyone wishes to discuss about alternate cryptocurrency I believe the session is their to make or create threads as regards cryptocurrency but here we specializes and lay more emphasis about buying and holdling of Bitcoin for a long term just like you've clarified that monitoring ones investments would rather lead to tampering with ones coin that is being hodl because sometimes as a result of unstable prices of Bitcoin as it may rise or dip and in a case of dipping an investor that's always monitoring it's activities in the market might choose to liquidate the amount he is hodling already and would not be able to further DCA and more likely to sell off the coins and expect a dip to come in other to buy again and if the price keeps increasing then he might find it difficult to buy thereby buying and holdling bitcoin can be defeated and at the end of the day no bitcoin would be in your portfolio and it would be very unwise if a bitcoin investor doesn't have or acquire more Bitcoins before the halving because it's almost near as we have about 80 days to halving before the bull run begins.

Of a truth binary option is just almost same as gambling because you're just concerned about staking on each of the coins blindly without knowing what the outcome of each of them would be so it can even lead to huge losses so to best is just to buy and acquire a coin then you can monitor the activities of other coins in the market so if eventually you see any signal of any coin having more significant gain than the one you acquired then you can sell it off and buy that potential coin that you feel it gonna increase in value, I think that one is preferable than monitoring activities of coins in the market and staking on each of them which is a very high risk situation

Your definition is quite okay but I believe it's not only about staking with little amount in other to increase his profit because there are actually people that gamble with huge amounts as well so when we're talking about who a gambler is I think the best definition should be someone who involves himself in a game that he knows actually that his chances of winning and losing are equal no matter the amount that is at staked.

Actually some of us one way or the other sold our Bitcoin due to the price drastically going down at some point and bought other cryptos we felt is being hyped and believed that it would be better than Bitcoin but when it starts dumping and possibly the price of Bitcoin starts skyrocketing, there is this anger of disappointment that we have of which I've been a victim of such and after that day I actually sworn I would never sell my Bitcoin to purchase any other cryptocurrency even if I wanted to buy another crypto, I would still hold the Bitcoins in my portfolio.

You are right to some extent but what you've just explained here is an irregular investment since you ain't too sure if the percentage you scrap out for handling other needs would be enough before you receive your next income, that's why it is advisable for an investor not to have one source of income so that you can make the whole analysis with your first income then a situation where by you may not be able to meet up your DCA due to some uncertainty then you can as well swap to your other income and continue your DCA .

This is the more reason why one needs thorough reasoning when trying to invest through DCA and most importantly having alternative source of income can actually help not to miss out the DCA because whatever that causes you not to meet up your DCA believe me your interest to continue would start diminishing and possibly push you to tamper with your holdings because it will actually look like a stress to you in the sense that it would look as if continuing your DCA would deprive you of some certain things though definitely anyone using DCA should just be prepared and be more disciplined about it if not there are times you would actually feel like not continuing due to one challenge or the other that's why an investor doesn't need emotions at all rather you go all hard in other to achieve your target(s)

Yes the Super eagles of Nigeria made Nigerians proud yesterday and everyone was happy for their awesome display, I saw a lot of Nigerians turn up to watch this match between Nigeria and Cameroon, it indeed shows love and devotion for our beloved country no matter how hard things are getting for the country, it citizen still shows compassion for the country.

Nigeria winning Cameroon have made them qualify for the quarter finals of the AFCON competition, kudos to the boys and the goal scorer Ademola Lookman who scored the brace that saw the super eagles advance to the next stage of the competition.

Your story sounds somehow funny but I like people that have experienced something before advising others because using oneself as an example really means you don't want others to have same experience as you do so one thing that takes people backwards in life is loans because at a time you are to think ahead of what to do with your money, you will be thinking of repaying a loan which is not advisable to anyone not to talk of taking the loan to play a gamble. Some gamblers are fond of this act because I've actually known someone that me mt me years back for me to borrow him money that he has a sure odd and even promise to bring some of his home appliances including his fridge as collateral I gave him the money but the game failed and he came back crying I just had compassion on him and gave him back his collateral later on he repayed the money. So taking loans to play gamble is a very bad habit that can lead to incessant debts that you may not even be able to pay back.
