but yeah, each person has to figure out these matters for themselves in regard to what kind of tactics they are going to want to use if they might at least be able to concede that their main goal is to accumulate bitcoin.. and so I have my doubts about whether selling is a good tactic to accumulate more bitcoin, even though some guys might try to strategize their BTC buys based on the BTC price, which also might end up contributing to their underaccumulating bitcoin, but each  person has to figure out based on his own circumstances how he might consider engaging in such ongoing attempts to accumulate BTC, if that might happen to be part of the newbie's goal set,
Investing in Bitcoin doesn't have to be tied to its rising price with a solid plan and smart money management you can jump into the market at any time the key is to avoid greedy impulses and embrace a long term perspective weathering dips and bulls alike don't get distracted by short term gains holding onto your investment through ups and downs yields more rewards than constantly buying and selling consistency is crucial continue investing steadily over time resisting the urge to sell at the first sign of profit this patient approach allows your portfolio to grow substantially ensuring a successful investment journey by focusing on the big picture you'll reap the benefits of long term growth making your investment a true success story.

Shower thought. If there was a person who would start a debate and tell me that Bitcoin's price today is "too high", I would argue back that, although Bitcoin's price might be "too high", it might also be mispriced towards the lower extreme of the cycle. The market hasn't truly priced in the Halving, AND the true nature of the Bitcoin spot ETF.

But we can see the proof of that in a simple chart. Research Gold ETF - when it started, then look at the Gold chart after it started.
When Bitcoin was created some people didn't believe Bitcoin would grow this big in price so yes Bitcoin price is high but not too high, 

Surely part of the challenge for anyone, and maybe even moreso for a bitcoin newbie, is trying to figure out the extent to which BTC prices might be high or not.  In several senses, bitcoin prices seem high to newbies not only in terms of the price of one bitcoin (the unit value if not looking at satoshis), but also describing bitcoin in terms of how much it has appreciated does not necessarily inspire confidence that it is going to continue to appreciate - especially for someone who is just looking at bitcoin at a superficial level and also someone who is not very well informed about bitcoin might be buying into some of the negative bitcoin talking points, so if they don't know much about bitcoin and they might be getting confronted with conflicting narratives about bitcoin, then they have difficulties evaluating it.
We should be buying bitcoin now.

Navigating the world of bitcoin can be overwhelming especially for newcomers. The steep price tag is intimidating enough but when you factor in its rapid appreciation it's natural to wonder if bitcoin's value is truly sustainable. Will it continue to rise or is it a bubble waiting to burst The conflicting narratives don't help - on one hand, bitcoin's hailed as a revolutionary investment, whil on the other, it's dismissed as a high-risk gamble. For those without a deep understanding of the space, it's tough to separate fact from fictio and the constant noise can be paralyzing. How do you make sense of it all and decide whether bitcoin's worth the investment?

Hi there newbies I think most of your frequently asked questions are given in form of like a hint under some posts on different boards although most times it's usually under the first post or OP's post do well to always check it out it is very summarized but still carries a ton of information.

I understand your enthusiasm for Bitcoin but since the abbreviation never meant anything related to Bitcoin in it's meaning then it won't have a positive impact on BTC . this is because if someone eventually asks a person in that locality what the abbreviation meant they would likely give you the intended meaning without making mention of Bitcoin.
It will also take more than putting BTC signs on cars to make people understand Bitcoin

15  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: SCAM or not ? on: July 25, 2023, 06:50:51 PM
If you had IQ above 50, you would realize while typing this post out that it was an obvious scam. So you didn't thought this was a scam, that proves your IQ is way below 50.
In that case, let me tell you that it's a scam. I hope this is the answer you were looking for. Have a good day.

I understand that you are trying to give your idea about op's post I also recognize the internet is all about free speech but try to censor your post and make your choice of words wisely I believe if a more established member had said this your reply would be different and quiet censored so try to treat all members equally when addressing them.please try not to sound offensive when addressing someone that is my point

17  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Don't be intimidated on: June 30, 2023, 08:20:20 PM
Dear newbies pls don't rush into making Bitcoin investments like selling a property very valuable to you just to impress on the forum or putting in your entire savings to purchasing Bitcoin I am not against making Bitcoin investments but
Before making Bitcoin investments always make sure the odds are safe for you  like some members here will say  "" make investments that will not affect you" in other words make investments with free money  except you have more profiting ideas than hodling

I am sure this is what other investors here do

19  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Changes in bitcoin usecase effects how people understand bitcoin on: April 23, 2023, 08:15:16 AM
I've been reading through the story inside the book "Tracers in the dark" and found on twitter that the Author was a forbes writer and once published, in 2011, an article about the future of bitcoin at 1$ . He had good views about bitcoin and his statements were right. Fast forward to 2020, his perspective about bitcoin has changed due to the usage of bitcoin, which people thought was untraceable and how it's now a vehicle to track down illegal business and child trafficking businesses, who use bitcoin to receive payments. In his story, I found some terms, peel chain which I didn't know, and found out it's a means of laundering cryptocurrency, and how chainanalysis reactor was able to trace people through the blockchain.

Initially before the dark web started utilizing bitcoin for illicit activities Andy Greenberg a wired blog writer, believed in bitcoin and passed down reasonable articles about bitcoin when he was with Forbes, when the use case began to change he didn't hesitate to tell the world the bad aspect of bitcoin and the amount of crimes lords or businesses that adopted bitcoin believing that it's untraceable.

Two sides to every story and my response to his stories

In a side he writes to unveil to the world how shallow the anonymity of bitcoin is, and the fact it's a bad actor to the society as people use bitcoin to commit crimes. On a second flip, if these illegal businesses are being tracked down with the help of blockchain network, why the blame on bitcoin? people who read his books may not use bitcoin because its usage, dark side, can scare them away. And as we all know, crime stories go longer ways in sales.

Isn't every money likely to be used by crime lords? he claims that the fiat transaction can easily make things easier for the Government to track down illicit businesses. A lot of things are being used to commit crime including the internet, cars, guns, bitcoin etc. Yet, the case of bitcoin is stressed a lot, is it because it's new or something else is attached to it? In conclusion, Crime is bad and people will always frown at whatever tool that helps or facilitates crime. A lot of people like this writer now think evil of bitcoin especially his readers and they forget easily the good use cases of bitcoin like he said in 2011 post.

Yes, modifications to Bitcoin's use case may affect how people think about and interpret the digital currency. From being initially a peer-to-peer electronic cash system, Bitcoin has developed into a store of wealth and an inflation hedge. People's perceptions of Bitcoin and its potential as an investment have been altered by these changes in use cases.

When Bitcoin originally appeared, it was viewed as a mechanism to transmit money rapidly and cheaply across borders without the use of middlemen like banks. However, as the network expanded and transaction costs rose, the primary use case for Bitcoin shifted to becoming a store of value.

In its role as a store of value, Bitcoin is regarded as a safeguard against inflation and a safe haven asset that may preserve wealth in times of economic unpredictability.
20  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / The Future of Bitcoin: Unlocking the Potential of Decentralized Finance on: April 23, 2023, 08:01:28 AM
Greetings to all.

I'm eager to discuss Bitcoin's potential to transform the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry with you today. As you are all aware, Bitcoin was created in 2009 as a decentralized digital currency. Since then, it has developed into the most widely used cryptocurrency in the world, with a market cap of over $1 trillion.

Although the primary use of Bitcoin has been as a speculative asset or a store of wealth, its underlying technology, the blockchain, has the potential to completely change a variety of industries, including finance. The growth of DeFi in particular has created new opportunities for developing decentralized financial applications that are open, safe, and available to anybody with an internet connection.

What what is DeFi, and how can Bitcoin use it?
