I totally agree, and in my opinion the only category who could predict Bitcoin's price accurately in the near future is definitely whales ( the ones who own huge quantities of cryptocurrencies ), the market is unfortunately controlled by them. Plus, the current value of BTC is stable and same goes to the market due to it is related to Bitcoin. In fact, we have not seen any remarkable bull run for a long time.

In addition to that, the next halving will be certainly effective and useful on Bitcoin and the whole market. It would be great if you keep investing  during this year. The more you HODL, the more income but in long time. And beware of fake news, a plenty of liars are spreading incorrect predictions and analyses in order to control holders.

In general, trading crypto is considered as one the best sources of funds nowadays. However, without knowing the basics of this field professionally, you could not succeed or earn a large amount of money. In facts, it appears that daily trading is unprofitable during this period due to the market is extremely volatile, it is perilous to consider it as a full time job especially for beginners. And If your capital is not huge, it will be definitely tough to gain significantly in short term.

Moreover, it would be better if you focus on long term strategy instead of short one. In my opinion, it is more effective due to the current market’s condition is unstable and the crypto prices are volatile ( they go up and down) with low value.   Hopefully the bull run is coming soon and everything is linked to Bitcoin. If it goes up, the whole market will rise.

Well, I have just had the same thought. And to be honest, it is certain that Bitcoin’s price will increase significantly after the halving event but not immediately, it is actually takes 4 months to rise up with more than +20%. For example, in previous halving (2020 ) the price went from $8k to almost $11k in 5 months. Unfortunately, people are impatient especially the newbies.

Furthermore, Bitcoin will always stay on top of cryptocurrencies, it means nothing is going to change dramatically in 2024 and in next few years. And in my opinion, BTC will not reach ATH in next year but probably in 2025. Plus, it is kinda difficult to give an accurate prediction specifically in middle and long term due to market is always affected with events and media news.

Exactly, and generally people are obsessed with easy profit, They would do anything (like taking loans and investing them into Bitcoin ) and except thousands of dollars to come in short period. That’s called madness not only greediness. In fact, it is always better to find more sources of money like freelance jobs and to begin with, try to collect a capital , then prepare different strategies for each market’s condition.

In addition to that, it is always to invest all your amount to one coins. It’s true that converting what you have into Bitcoin is profitable in most of the time especially in long term but probably better opportunities will come to you in the near future. We might see another bear run as soon as possible. To be honest, we should always predict the unpredicted. That’s why making different strategies are important. For me, I expect the next bull run will happen with 1-2 days. If Bitcoin breaks $30k again, then it will probably rise significantly to $35k-$40k, let’s be optimistic.

Good point. In addition to that, Bitcoin is incomparable with any crypto . However, the profit is guaranteed but for the ones who have the patience and with good decision making. The timing in buying and selling are essential , if you are able to read crypto charts well and professionally, then it would be easier for you to trade and make the right decisions and of course it is never too late to invest in Bitcoin. Now the current price is still under $30, so don’t hesitate if you are planning to buy it.

Furthermore, the bull run is possibly coming soon. Well, it’s not easy to accurately predict the date of this event but it might happen in a couple of weeks. It would be better if you keep holding and don’t panic sell no matter how bad the situation is. Believe in Bitcoin, It will never disappoint you. Maybe not soon due to the market is unstable but in the near future. It will definitely hit $60K again.

I absolutely agree with what you said OP. It is better for beginners to understand the basics of trading well before getting started. It might take few months to be able or capable to start in this field but it is definitely worth it. And remember that knowledge is literally potential power. Take your time by reading trading books , learning technical analyses and understanding crypto charts such as candlesticks signals and chart patterns.

Moreover, easy profit for beginners is a trap especially in beginnings. It gives you fake confidence and of course it is always temporary due market’s condition changes in every period , if you are not capable to analysis each one, then you will definitely fail and lose your balance.
Also, greediness and impatience has a negative impact on decisions of traders.

Absolutely yes, due to the current price is still under $30K and in my opinion, once Bitcoin breaks it, it will definitely rise significantly ( Bull run ).  It means If you buy now, you won’t regret later especially if your investment strategy in middle or long term. However, it might take a lot of time to see ATH ( $69k) again probably  in 1-2 years. We never know what will happen though.

In my opinion , Bitcoin will hit the highest price of all the time in 2025 but that’s just my personal prediction. Furthermore, the market is extremely volatile, and BTC’s price is up and down but with low value. It means short term investment in unprofitable. And you might lose a huge amount if you take the risk during this period.

That’s definitely true. Unfortunately, poor and greedy people are able to lose everything , some bought their cars , houses and took loans just to sell bitcoin and expecting *2 profit in short period. These people have one of the worst types of mindset. They be making dumb mistakes and taking unplanned risks without strategy and enough knowledge.

Plus, it is really necessary to find sources of money with Bitcoin payment or crypto stable coins depending of what skills and knowledge do you have. In addition to that, if you’re into crypto field and specifically Bitcoin, you must be mentally strong and patient without these two characteristics, you cannot succeed.

In my opinion, Bitcoin will break $30K in a couple of weeks but that’s not guaranteed. It might goes down again depending on whales strategy which few people know it. Plus, I have been keeping my eyes on coinmarketcap in past few days and I realized that nothing is actually changed, Bitcoin is still stuck between $27k and $28k. As you in past 7 days, it increased with only 0.73%. That’s really low but it may the calm before the storm. We will see.

Moreover, if you I have an interesting amount of stable coin ( like, USDT and BUSD) , it would be a smart move if you convert %50 of them into Bitcoin, it is really worth it especially during this bear market. However, the predictions are not always accurate. But if your target is long time investment, then you’re safe. Hopefully, Bitcoin will hit $40K by the end of year.

Good point. Moreover, without facing obstacles and making mistakes, we cannot grow. It is very important to accept the reality no matter how bad it is, always accept it and deal with it. And to be honest, Trading field isn’t an easy field to earn thousands in short period. And if you are a newbie and planning to start with a huge capital, it doesn’t mean the profit is guaranteed.

In fact, It would be better if you start with a low capital, and once you gain experience and learn more about this field, at that time you can add more money on your budget. Plus, you have to be careful due to the current market’s condition is unwell and shitcoins are widespread. They be promoting their scam projects in everywhere.

Simply, the market is unstable ( goes up and down ) . When it is suddenly decreasing significantly , that’s called bear market and the opposite is bull market ( when it goes up ). The timing is really important in trading ( buying and selling ). In addition to that, I recommend people to invest in best cryptocurrencies ( who located on top 30 ) , it would be very risky if you pick new tokens or altcoins. Be aware of scam projects, the market is full of them.

Plus, short term investment is not recommended during this period. Unfortunately, we have not seen any interesting pump in market for a long time due to Bitcoin is being controlled and manipulated by whales. So try to collect best cryptocurrencies ( like btc, eth, bnb, tron ) as much as possible. HODL and be patient until the bull market comes again.

Exactly, it is really essential to control your emotions especially in tough moments. Otherwise, you will lose a lot of money. For me, I would rather disconnect myself from social media news than be manipulated and affected by them despite it is really important to be updated but unfortunately the media is full of fake news , you cannot easily know what’s real.
I have seen a statistic before it said 2 from 3 news are fake. So you have to be careful and recheck the news before making any decisions.

Moreover, if you believe in Bitcoin, then it will never disappoint you. Despite the market is kinda volatile but it certain that everything will get better as soon as possible, it might take weeks or months. We don’t know when but we are pretty sure that it will happen. Keep investing until Bitcoin increases significantly again.

I totally agree, in the end it is up to you to decide the best option to do. Plus, there is no need to keep an unprofitable  business for years. That’s waste of time without benefits. Furthermore, I see a lot of entrepreneurs who don’t give a value to digital marketing. It is really important and necessary nowadays, without it your business will never grow. Your main goal is to build attention, it helps to attract clients , partners sponsors and companies. Nobody will notice your business , if it does not show up in social media.

In fact, it is essential to make different strategies and plans. The more you have, the more solutions you will find. Also the added value is important. What makes your business better and more unique than the others? These are the keys to make your project successful.

To be honest, it is pretty difficult to predict Bitcoin’s price in the near future. And due to you are looking for a long term investment, so it would not be an issue if you buy now. Plus, if I was in your place, I would invest 50% of budget right now , and the other part in the next days or weeks depending on the market’s condition. Probably , BTC will increase significantly as soon as possible or probably will downgrade under $20K.

 In fact, the market is being unpredictable. It would be better if you keep your eyes on it and wait or chase for the best opportunity. Also,It is not needed to be hasty. The chance will always come to you, be prepared. And never regret mistakes always happen to everyone even expert traders. Long term investment strategy always useful and effective especially when it comes to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Hopefully you will earn *2 ,*3 before the end of this year.

Well, I always advise newbies to make some researches in cryptocurrency field before even starting. And to be honest, there is multiple ways to earn cryptocurrencies depending on your skills. For example, if you are an artist or graphic designer, you can start freelancing. It’s literally one of the best to gain crypto. All you have to do is to build a portfolio and post it in famous forums. The beginning might be tough due to the market is full of freelancers ( competitors). The more you are creative and talented, the more you attract clients.

In addition to that, trading is not profitable nowadays due to the market is volatile. I would rather invest in Bitcoin and ETH than waste my money and time on altcoins, most of them are shitcoins except few on top 30. Same goes to mining, it is no longer profitable too. Otherwise, E-commerce is one of the best sources of funds in this era. If you are capable to start working on it, don’t hesitate.

Of course yes, and you made the best decision OP , it’s the perfect time to buy Bitcoin due to the current price is still under $30K. The more you invest in BTC, the more gain you get but in long term. Regrettably, the market’s condition is unstable. The whales are currently trying so hard to not let Bitcoin reach $30K, it is unfortunate that the market is controlled by them.

To be  honest, everything is possible, we might see another strong pump in the near future. That’s why we should collect and hold bitcoin as long as possible and you will never regret. The king of cryptocurrencies has changed our lives. A lot of us have achieved a lot of goals and made some dreams true. Thanks to this coin.
Let’s keep HODL it and reach the moon together.

In general, being pessimistic, unproductive, lazy and greedy are the main reasons for staying at the same point without achieving goals and growing. And what’s the point of getting millions of easy money without working hard on them and struggling in life
In my opinion, life would be boring if we don’t face obstacles and get what we get what we want in an easy way. And yeah it is certain that money is hardly to get nowadays . That’s why we should  be updated always and find different sources of funds.

In fact, OP I know you are struggling and have a lot responsibilities and pressure but believe me, that complaining will never change anything. And unfortunately it will get everything worse. Plus, it is never too late change everything . Take your time by making researches , restart again and be optimistic  And I am pretty sure that everything will get better to you. Good luck

Well, it is certain that hardware wallet ( like, a flash drive ) is one of the safest ways to keep your digital currencies safe. And to be honest, OP I did not know there was an easy way to hack it. Maybe your information isn’t completely accurate. How you can you hack a wallet when it is unconnected to the internet ? And what’s the point of getting it if it’s not safe?
In my opinion, if you keep your private key and password in a safe place, then it will be pretty difficult to get hacked .  Moreover, there are more safe ways and secure such as bitcoincore, Electrum.

For me, I would prefer saving my crypto in hardware wallet like Trezor, Ledger, safepal and Ellipal tiran than online or software wallets. It is too risky to keep all your balance in them to be honest. And again never share your private key to anyone and your password must be strong and saved in a safe place too.

Good point. In addition to that, you should adopt yourself in every new situation. That’s why the strategy always changes depending on the market condition, it means each one can be useful and effective in a short period and few conditions. In opinion, it is really essential to start with analyzing the market before trading. Also, reading cryptocurrency charts is important  too. Plus, it is always better to create your own strategies instead of following traders especially if you are able or capable to. Some newbies hire private experts in trading, and give them % of profits like 10-15% depending of the budget. Maybe that’s the easiest way to gain money with less effort in trading field.

Unfortunately, there is a plenty of beginners who make wrong decisions without even knowing the basics of trading. They losing money because of greediness and lack of knowledge. You should take your time by reading and learning this field before even starting. That’s how it works. Step by step until your reach your goal.
