The mere fact that these various strategies exist or that people think about these matters in different ways does not even mean that the strategies (or the ways of thinking) are equally as good or even equally thought through or that they are particularly tailored to the circumstances to the person. Sometimes we might even tell someone that their strategy is dumb, even though it is a validly existing strategy that is based on their determination of how to manage their BTC accumulation, maintenance and/or accumulation - and maybe they are engaged in trading, and we can also proclaim that their strategy is valid, but it is dumb, especially when it comes to bitcoin, but such a strategy might be more valid when it comes to shitcoins in which most of the time it is likely better to establish entry and exit strategies rather than planning to hold such crap in the long term - and yeah, hopefully we are not treating our bitcoin holdings like that and hopefully we have assessed where we are at in our bitcoin journey in order to determine what strategy or combination of strategies is going to contribute towards our making progress towards reaching our goals, whether that be BTC accumulation, maintenance, liquidation or some combination of those that might emphasize one or the other at various points in time.
It's true that not all strategies are equally effective or well thought out. While it's valid for individuals to have their own strategies for managing their BTC accumulation.
When it comes to trading it is crucial to have a welldefined strategy that takes into account the specific characteristics of the coins you are trading. While some strategies may be more suitable for altcoins or memecoins(shitcoins) it's important to approach them with caution due to their higher risk nature. But thing is that these trading strategies always ask for to learn much and have knowledge about fundamentals.
But when it comes to Bitcoin... It is generally considered a more stable and established cryptocurrency. Many investors choose to hold Bitcoin as a long term investment(with DCAing or others strategies which ends at Holding). And others may engage in short term trading based on market trends(they think they have a good strategy and they do According to their mind).
I was just saying that others may think they are on right way means they think they have the best strategy. But anyone cant impose his/him own strategy to anyone. Only the DCA method I think which everyone can easily accept and can work on it.
It sounds like you are subscribing to some relativistic way of thinking, which likely is not true. The various kinds of strategies can exist, but it does not necessarily meant that the strategies have been thought through or even have much if any merit, even though they might be trying to reach some kind of goal of getting rich quick, so they employ a certain kind of strategy with the belief that they have chosen the best strategy to meet their objectives, when the fact of the matter may well be that they have hardly any clue about how to achieve their objective or that the strategy that they have chosen is not going to work for their unrealistic goal that involves gambling, but they mistakenly believe that they are investing.
It is true that some individuals may mistakenly believe they have chosen the best strategy to meet their objectives.
Instead it is recommended to focus on strategies that are based on thorough research analysis and a long term perspective(like the DCA strategy we have).
Again I will say that people think that they have a good strategy but if this not ends at Holding so I think this is not a good strategy. While I believe that the DCA is the best strategy. Which sets with all type of minds.
A long term investor might consider trading - or selling in order to try to buy back cheaper, as employing too much risk and also putting himself outside of the right kind of ongoing and persistent accumulation mindset, so sure there could be some traders who out perform the longer term investor, but an overwhelming majority of times, the traders do not outperform the long term investor who is just accumulating bitcoin over time... and the longer the time, the more likely that the trader is going to underperform the longer term BTC investor... and sure, these are not absolutes nor are they guaranteed to continue to occur, even though so far they have been true in bitcoin's history..and there seems to be no reason to conclude that bitcoin's long-term investment thesis is getting weaker rather than stronger.
While it is true that some traders may outperform longterm investors in certain instances the overall trend suggests that longterm investors who accumulate Bitcoin over time tend to fare better. This is because trading involves higher levels of risk and can disrupt the ongoing accumulation mindset that is often associated with longterm investing( or even I can say that the luck also can matter).
While there may be opportunities to sell and buy back at lower prices timing the market consistently is extremely difficult and often leads to suboptimal results. Longterm investors on the other hand benefit from the potential for compounding returns over time.
There is no reason to suggest that Bitcoin longterm investment thesis is getting weaker. In fact many argue that it is becoming stronger as more institutional investors and mainstream adoption occur. Like we have an example of ETF and we can see how the Bitcoin is performing and will perform more well and soon who believes in Bitcoin they will get profit.
There can be some traders who win on a vast majority of their trades, but in bitcoin, historically there have sometimes been such violent upward moves in the BTC price that never end up returning, so if a person is not long into bitcoin at the time, or if a person had shorted without a sufficiently strong stoploss, it may well end up that the person ends up losing out upon years worth of gains all because they failed/refused to have a long position in bitcoin at a time that ends up being crucial to the profitability of their BTC holdings.
Exactly that is my point view too the potential for significant upward moves in the price of Bitcoin that can be missed by traders who are not long at the time. It is true that timing the market perfectly is extremely difficult and missing out on these crucial moments can result in missed gains. And I think if there is the experience matters so the luck also matters if there is a trader. And if there is the person who is DCAing regularly so he will get the reward of patience.
