I am quite happy with what the OP is doing, I think his good intentions to provide a good education to his nephew are certainly very worthy of our appreciation, but as you said the value of the bitcoins he is currently saving is quite small, maybe even after 18 years The OP nephew only gets a small profit from the bitcoins the OP keeps so far.
Let's say now OP has bitcoins worth $100 or 0.002, and after 18 years the price of bitcoin has increased to $1 million, so OP only has savings money of 0.002*$1,000,000 = $2000 and of course it's not that big of money in 2040.

Traders should see the right time to invest, sometimes we are stuck at high prices when buying when the price has not yet reached the lowest decline and of course this is quite annoying, buying investment assets that have a good rating and trust is one way to avoiding altcoins that might end up not having liquid in the market, but market conditions like this certainly make many traders panic, so they cut losses to avoid bigger losses.

Many of the beginners who only follow the hype in investing or trading in the market and as a result when the hype ends it will certainly make them suffer losses, besides that difficulty in reading price movements is one of the reasons why many of us suffer losses due to incorrectly determining the entry level in the market, that's why in trading analysis and experience are very important for trader and better before we become traders, we have a lot to learn both from people who are experts and reading on the internet.

Bitcoin which has peer-to-peer technology, of course, makes it impossible for anyone to control either big intuition, central banks and even the state cannot control bitcoin in the market, indeed we can all be part of bitcoin ownership but to control bitcoin is a very difficult thing impossible to do and the difficulty in controlling bitcoin is the reason for many countries in the world that prohibit the circulation of bitcoin so far. While the price of bitcoin in the market is expensive or not, it all depends on the number of supply and demand transactions that have occurred in the market so far.

Entering the year 2022 we have been surprised by price movements in the market which are quite scary, right now we don't even see any signs the market will improve and even today bitcoin crash again which caused its price to drop to $33,700 and this may not be the lowest price level yet in January.
We all hope that the market will improve soon, but we should use the current downward momentum to increase the assets we have at a low price, so that when prices start to improve, we can at least get a profit from the assets we buy now.

What do you mean BRAINTRUST tokens?
 If so, I think you are lucky enough to be able to invest in the token, because I see that in the current bearish market conditions, Braintrust actually experienced a price increase of almost 12.45% and that is truly extraordinary.
Braintrust token seems to have a good project development so that it allows the token to experience a fast recovery in the market, with the support from large companies for braintrust it will certainly trigger a strong push in the market under any circumstances, I think the token is very worth investing in, especially they have a rating of 245 on coinmarketcap so it indicates if the token is a token that has high enough credibility from crypto lovers.

I'm a little hesitant to say if Elon Musk is related or not with shiba, because so far I haven't seen him support shiba coin openly and although he did tweet a picture of a shiba dog at the time, tweeting a floki picture of Elon Musk at that time had a pretty big impact on shiba , because a few minutes later the price of shiba actually experienced a significant increase in the market, but in another tweet, Elon Musk once said that Shiba does not have strong fundamentals as investment assets and Elon Musk has only held bitcoin, ethereum and doge as investments.

Cycles that occur as if they have happened every year so it seems normal for those of us who are familiar with crypto, but I don't think that's the case with those who are new to investing and getting to know crypto at this time, of course they will panic when they see the estimated value of their money decrease quite a lot, People who panic like that usually worsen the market and even they do not hesitate to sell their assets at low prices in order to cut the bigger losses on their assets.

The current decline in the price of bitcoin has also resulted in a significant decline in the price of altcoins in the market, and many of us have even lost estimates of around 50% of the assets we have, but that doesn't mean the current decline will have a long impact in my opinion, because from experience last years we could see that sooner or later we will see the market recovery happen again, some of the top 20 coinmarketcap altcoins have gone minus around 5-30% in just a week and of course this causes panic for traders, but to be honest now it is actually being taken advantage of by some traders to enter the market and buy altcoins that do have strong fundamentals such as eth, bnb, sol and some of  altcoins has been trusted  have fast recovery in the market for long term hold.

Coins like shiba only depend on the hype that exists like when doge coin experienced a high price increase due to Elon Musk's tweet, besides that the same thing happened to shiba during the big rally last October when Elon Musk tweeted a picture of his dog on twitter, the absence of strong fundamental support from the shiba allows it to be very difficult to trigger a large demand in the market right now, I think now it is very unlikely to expect big returns if holding shiba for long term, and maybe if you want to trade shiba for short term still can be one of the good alternatives nowadays, but don't expect to get big profit from shiba.
It can be very difficult to predict the future of altcoins, but I personally would not make shiba one of my long-term asset portfolios, because apart from being independent of bitcoin price movements, shiba also has terrible volatility in the market so to keep it for a long time would be very risky.

The market is still in a bearish condition which allows for a further decline at the moment, it looks like some altcoins are actually starting to turn green today but in my opinion that doesn't mean a recovery will happen soon, if pressure resurfaces in the market of course altcoin prices will be able to reverse direction and red again, I think we need to see how likely it is that there will be another price correction in the next few hours before deciding to buy, the altcoins you mentioned above are currently showing a pretty positive trend in their project development, and I think some altcoins this could be a good return if the market recovers later.

Owning 0.01 bitcoins is not a guarantee that wealth will be yours even after 10 years, let's say today the exchange rate of 0.01 bitcoins is equivalent to $359 (bitcoin price $35,989), and you keep it for about 10 years so that bitcoins go up to $1 million, don't you just have money around $10,000 in 2032? I think $10,000 is not a high enough value for money in 2032 because it is certain that in 10 years the world will experience many changes, including in terms of currency values ​,  price of goods and services, so in my opinion if you really want to become a millionaire by only having bitcoin around 0.01 of course  it is impossible.
But if you use 0.01 bitcoins to continue trading continuously in the market, chances are that you will be able to double the number of bitcoins you have from now on and if you are lucky maybe from 0.01 bitcoins, you will have 1 or 2 bitcoins and maybe more in the next 10 years.

Pakistan is like other countries in the world that do not want to be open to digital currency technology at this time, their reasons are almost the same as the reasons for many countries that prohibit the circulation of bitcoin, namely as an illegal currency and cannot be used for trade, besides that nature of bitcoin speculative  trigger the central bank fear of the occurrence of an uncontrolled bubble in the market later.
I think so far it is not only Pakistan that has banned the use of bitcoin in their country, Russia, China, Vietnam and several countries in Latin America, despite the ban, I think the public it is still possible to invest in cryptocurrencies especially bitcoins anonymously nowadays, moreover some of these countries still have exchangers that support official currency pairs, but now Pakistan actually has a unique case where the government through the central bank and also the pakistan telecommunications authority stan has blocked almost 1600 cryptocurrency trading sites in the country, so I think this is a pretty big blow for Pakistanis who have had cryptocurrency assets, so maybe they have to go to another country to be able to cash out the assets they have, because automatically after the mass blocking, goverment will also block many local exchanges that support the Bitcoin/PKR pair.

I'm also doing the same thing with you right now, even though the market is in a bad trend but it's better for us not to rush into buying, because it looks like the decline that is happening now may not be over and it could be more going down again, but for me personally, I have targeted to buy several altcoins that might recover quickly, such as BnB, Eth, Matic and also Sol, now I continue to monitor the price movements of these altcoins and wait for the right moment to enter and buy them.

These two things greatly affect the current decline in bitcoin prices, the whales panicked and threw away bitcoins at cheap prices and also  the ongoing negative sentiment in the market that continues to occur makes bitcoin under quite strong pressure , if we consider the current decline, not much different from what happened in previous years, but it seems that the current situation is exacerbated by many other factors that we did not get during the decline that occurred in 2018 such as the pandemic, the number of mining bans and also greater interest rate hikes by the FED, and it all makes bitcoin worse now than the usual cycle that occurs every year, the decline in the price of bitcoin has now reached its lowest point in the last six months, and it doesn't seem like it will end if bitcoin has not gotten a strong push in the market so that it can trigger the price back rebound.

The decline that is happening now has really caused quite a big panic among crypto lovers, not only bitcoin but also altcoins are experiencing the impact, currently the price of bitcoin has reached the price of $34,850 and it looks like the price suppression will still occur in the future, actually the signs that the market is entering the Bears phase have been seen in December 2021, but now it is actually exacerbated by the negative sentiment triggered by the Russian ban on bitcoin mining in the country, I think the ban is almost the same as that carried out by China, but at the time the bitcoin market is recovering quickly because indeed market conditions are in a bullrun condition at that time, while for now, I am a little doubtful if we will see bitcoin recover soon and maybe the bitcoin price will drop to its lowest level and $30,000 seems like will be a stopover the next bitcoin price in the near future.

I see if the country of el salvador wants to fully adopt bitcoin in their economy and even they have legalized bitcoin as a legal payment in the country, and even during a bad market like today, the president of el Salvador took a pretty bold step by investing $15 million to add to their portfolio of bitcoin holdings, according to several existing sources, currently el salvador has almost 1500 BTC as their state asset and this proves that el salvador has had a long plan and also great confidence in the prospect of a bright bitcoin future,  maybe the current downturn will make some of their citizens panic, but I don't think it will make them lose faith in bitcoin.

We will need time to fully adopt bitcoin as a substitute for paper money, because so far paper money has achieved stability from time to time and already has value from every transaction we make in every field of the economy, but of course along with the progress of the times we must also be able to accept other alternatives that may be better than using paper money, but I think the only thing that prevents bitcoin from being adopted as a world currency is because of its high volatility, so that which makes many countries may be a little hesitant to regulate bitcoin as a substitute for paper money.
