We have seen a huge swing in the price of Bitcoin in the new year and it has reached an all-time high. Where we can assume that a new ATH has formed in the Bitcoin market and we have seen a new road. As we are currently in the year 2024 and at the beginning we saw the Bitcoin market peaking at $73k. However, currently we can see that the market has moved down slightly after the Bitcoin halving and currently the Bitcoin market is hovering around $63000. However, we can confirm that there is no doubt that the price of Bitcoin will reach $100k and we have seen many other forecasts where various experts and experts have predicted that the price of Bitcoin will reach $150k. The way Bitcoin price is currently going, we can say with certainty that we are going to face a bull market very soon, and then the price of Bitcoin will touch $100k. As the market price of Bitcoin is currently dumping a bit, it will pump up again as it is due to volatility in the market. Anyway now we should buy more bitcoins and hold it for long time and if we can buy and hold bitcoins now then good things are waiting for bull season ahead.

I think better strategy would be Buy the DIP, sell at local high, open short, HODL and sell at local low. Rinse and repeat. Indefinitely. Yes, it is easier said than done. But for me, it is easier after around 6 months of watch, learn, and execute.

Ok bos.

Wow if you are picking out some other shitcoins, then it appears that you are trying to pump which shitcoins happen to be less shitty (and your choice of less shitty coins happens to be ethereum and BNB), so where does that lead us.. It leads us to being off topic and talking about irrelevant bullshit of whatever thousands of potential other shitcoins... 

Ain't nobody got time for that

I have received dust many times in the last years, mainly in addresses with positive balance (I don't check the empty ones often, so I don't know whether I receive something there). As far as I'm aware, that's not a big issue since there is no need to send dust in order to track the transactions from or to that address since the blockchain is public.

IMO, the moral should be keep things tidy, the same if you received dust or not. Although a single point of failure is enough to break your privacy, the more mistakes you make the more chances of being tracked and, eventually, attacked. So it is a good idea to create throw-away addresses while being aware that every time you consolidate you may be sharing too much info.

It doesn't necessarily need to be a steady income, I could be a money that comes once in 3 months, 6 months or such intervals and you decide to divide that amount into parts and invest them on intervals instead of buying with all the amount at once, so yeah the idea of having a steady income leads to the fact that for DCA and accumulating bitcoin to give you the best results you have to be kind of steady and consistent in doing so, so some folks that haven't got a steady income can at times pause or stop due to their money getting exhausted and at times even us up their reserves if they have quite the appetite for buying bitcoin, and your emergency funds also has nothing in to do with steady income, its just like that savings we never touch and we build just to insure that we never sell our holdings based on misfortunes or emergencies and this should be up to 3 months of your expenses to be potent enough.

I can only talk from personal experience, I used to take this hybrid approach dca and bftd, but when I went back thru my data and calculated the difference from pure dca and this hybrid approach I found it didn’t quite pan out the way you are saying. The main problem encountered and not all the time but most of the time you don’t get the dip properly. It’s very hard to hit the dip without a lot of eyes on glass ie time. Yes you can set orders but then you have to divide up your dip money to guess where it lands and sometimes you have leftovers. Instead of bftd I increase my dca amount for a set period of time and then bring it back to normal levels. For example for the next 4 months I increased my dca amount. In July it will go back to normal levels.

The second problem is outside the blockchain, you got a little nest egg for dips but then things come up trying to nibble on the egg from rl. Yes there lots of strategies to insulate and segment your money but the majority of people don’t have these in place. If you don’t have an emergency fund in place I would not recommend trying to bftd strategy.

I’m absolutely not saying your wrong but in my own experience I keep coming back to the old adage; “Time in the market instead of timing the market” Pure DCA let’s you accumulate methodically and increase your time in the market without any timing requirements.

5) I was not thinking that rank would necessarily be a category - because I doubt that there would be any need to compete.. but then maybe the number of days could be the rank rather than the number of pushups.... but yeah, sure there might be some interest in the number of pushups, even though some guys have already stated that they were more interested in quality rather than quality, but we still might want to consider consistency, so the number of days could be a kind of ranking, so if guys are missing days, then they would ONLY report the days that they were doing pushups and not the number of calendar days, because the days might not count if they were to be days in which no pushups were done on those days.

My take on this Is buy when there is a drop in price, hold enough of it , whether Bitcoin or shitcoins, when it comes to crypto space we can't accurately predict the future,  some years ago specifically the early days of BTC one will tell you that holding enough of Bitcoin was risky, but that can't be said of it today, as it has gained more values, the same goes to other shut coins buy when there Is a drop in price, hold as many as you can , and maybe later in future you don't know what will happen,

When Investing in shitcoins you just just invest like a life savings in shitcoins, because you can't predict the future of that shitcoins, but a life savings can be invested in BTC given that the future of Bitcoin is already bright, for newbies DCA strategy can maybe be suggested to them, holding coins for a long term really pays on a long run.

Which ever method to be used will be best known to the investor in terms of his or her physiological and financial situation, investment goals and objectives inclusively. However, the method of buying and holding your Bitcoin may not really matters but what matters is the size of your Bitcoin and how long can you be able to hodl, your ability to have a sizeable Bitcoin investment and your ability to hodl as long as possibly 5 to 10 years or more, you can lump sum, or use the dca method or probably combination of both and this will tailored down by each investor in such a way it  will suits them in terms of physiological/financial situation including their investment goals and objectives such that what the question Will be at the end of the day will be how much of Bitcoin do you have and how long can you be able to hodl.

It seems that the more poor you are (and the fewer the investments that you have), the more important it is to both establish an emergency fund and also to maintain that emergency fund in cash rather than in any other assets.. especially the first at least 3 months of your living expenses.

I don't think you need to have cash to keep yourself rich. If you have a heavy enough portfolio of bitcoins you have solvency enough. Because since you have invested in Bitcoin and are with it, it is the foundation of your own and family's economy.Your cash flow will determine what you should do even though I think most of these funds don't last more than 2 or 3 months.Your health insurances are by your side, and if you want to do something big on a budget like buying a house or buying a car...I'm saying these are essential but that's not what emergency funds are for.

If you have enough cash, instead of keeping 10%, keep more like 20% to increase the digits in BTC portfolio. Keeping the emergency fund a year seems pointless. If you want to diversify, Bitcoin DCAing strategy is easy for you.

Ultimately you have to figure out your own balances that relate to the various resources that you might have available to you, how steady is any income and/or expenses that you have and how likely are you going to end up needing the extra funds, because the emergency fund, once you establish it, you should not be dipping into it.  It would just be there and always available.  Of course, since you do not want to our need to dip into your emergency fund, then many of the times if you might have shortages of cash, you would be working with your reserves and your float.. so yeah you gotta figure out how much of those various categories to keep available, and surely the larger your BTC stash gets, then that also might affect the extent that you might feel that you need to be diversified in other assets... whether that be in cash or otherwise.. .. sometimes we could think about various other forms of investments (besides bitcoin) as ways of holding cash in different kinds of ways and to be able to earn interest or yield or dividends or that it might also appreciate but be something other than bitcoin, even though bitcoin and cash will tend to be way more liquid while other forms of assets may well be less liquid, but holding value in various ways will give you options to spend from the less valuable assets prior to touching your bitcoin in the event that you might conclude that bitcoin might be the best of your investments that you don't want to touch or being playing around with until it reaches a certain size in which you would thereby start to authorize yourself  to start to dip into it. within systems and under circumstances that you have already established for yourself, once you get to such an overaccumulation level  that could take 4-10 years or longer just to build your BTC holdings to such levels.

I understand what you are saying, Dorkylickjj .. but it is still unclear..

Technically, you are correct.

An emergency fund it 3-6 months worth of income - yet more accurately, an emergency fund would be 3-6 months of expenses, and sure if you build up an amount of an emergency fund that is actually 3 months of your income, then it likely should end up going a little bit longer than 3 months - depending upon if you might be able to reduce your expenses during any actual emergency that would end up taking place... and if anyone ends up having an actual emergency, he likely is going to dread if he were to ONLY have 3 months and wished that he were to have more, yet we know that it likely tends to take quite a bit of resources to build up an emergency fund, even one as small as 3 months.. yet it is something that really provides a lot of security and ability to take greater risks and to be more aggressive in terms of investing into something like bitcoin.. ..

Another thing is that many of us likely imagine that if we are brand new to investing and we are living in a way similar to many people, we might start out with only 2-4 weeks worth of float, reserves and/or emergency funds, and so we might have frequently considered that 2-4 weeks is quite a bit of "extra cash" just sitting around and just there  for various shortages in cashflow, and we might be able to get by for years and years and years with such pracices of sparsely maintaining savings and/or any emergency fund.

So if we are wanting to build up our current emergency fund, float, reserves to be at least 3 months and likely to have a bit more than 3 months in there, then it well could take us 6-18 months to build it up to such higher levels.. .. just depending on how much discretionary income that we have and if we might simultaneously be wanting to get started investing into bitcoin and building our emergency fund, reserves and float at the same time that we are making our earliest investments into bitcoin and sat stacking.

Investing should not necessarily mean profit.

You will get some sort of return from the investment, may be dividends or may be learning. Not everyone succeeds in investing all the time, some succeed and some fail and learn from failure and move towards success.

But one should not invest in a situation where he has no source of income and is totally dependent on his investment.

Every crypto investor has a strategy for their Bitcoin investment. Your strategy is good, although it is different from mine and mine can be different from others, and we are pursuing to arrive at the goal of making future profits from bitcoin investment no matter what our strategy is and how long we hodling bitcoin for.

My strategy is to sell some parts of my bitcoin holding next year and start to apply a DCA strategy to accumulate bitcoin back during the bearish market because it is expected that after the bull run comes a bearish market. That is, after this bull run(2024/2025) what follows is a bearish market.

The first best time to buy was yesterday and the second best time is today and it is always now if you are considering long term investment in Bitcoin,  you don't have to wait for any dip or bear trend but with your dca strategy you are already there in the market while any dip or bear trend can only be seen as an advantage of buying wholesomely at a cheaper price and having more quantity.

You have to be specific when making use of the word crypto by not generalizing Bitcoin operation in terms of other coins because Their performance solely depends on Bitcoin if you want to say Bitcoin just say Bitcoin.

Timing the market and sell when we are in a bull run or at the top of the price or near all time high as you said sounds more like a trading strategy who's intention is only to buy low and sell high, those who should be talking about selling are those who have attained higher level in their Bitcoin investment in as much as we are not talking or emphasizing on selling but to accumulate and hodl for as long as 5 to 10 years or more.

Expenditure depends on people's income, but if it can be calculated, it is possible to earn relatively small amount of money to meet all needs from that earned money and also invest from there. The income of every person living in our society is not the same, everyone has a different profession and everyone has a different income. Everyone from a bank officer to a van driver lives with his family and everyone thinks to expect the best from his position and thinks about everyone's future. 

A van driver earns $100 per month whereas a bank officer earns $1000 per month then a van driver earning $100 is definitely not used to living a luxurious life. On the other hand, a banker earning $1000 per month must try to live in a good place and expect a good life.

Even after earning $1000 and living a good life, he must plan for his future and when he plans for his future, he can invest part of his income if he wants. Investing doesn't depend on how much money you are earning every month, basically investing depends on the individual. If the person wants to invest then he can invest even earning a relatively small amount of money. You have contradicted me by saying that it is easy to think about something but difficult to act on it, to which I will tell you that if you have a sincere desire you can do anything.

In student life usually everyone is dependent on family still but he saves his own money or collects some money through various means he invests in this case if a working man earns enough money but does not get money to invest then he is definitely a failure. If we want, we can set aside a portion of our income at the end of the month for investment. The money you spend will never come back. But when you invest money that will give you profit as soon as it comes back, it is definitely wiser to invest money thinking about the future rather than spending a lot of money now.
