For sure, people would invest in Bitcoin aggressively when the crypto market is down but are they going to wait until that time comes before they invest, even when we don't know whether the $35k is the limit price bitcoin can fall to before it moves higher in price before the bull run season.
Thank goodness, for I am not among those who want to wait when the market is down before they invest. For me, I am investing the little money I have in a DCA approach
If you understand correctly what I have explained, maybe you can take the right points. I mean if someone divides their funds into three categories Lump sum, Buy on dips and DCA of course they will not have difficulty under any circumstances because they can make purchases in accumulating Bitcoin. Buying regularly by applying DCA is a good choice when the market is sideway and when it turns bullish we can take advantage of the decline by increasing purchases a little more aggressively.

In the long term process of course we have many opportunities to buy on dips and do DCA and what we need to do is maintain our financial balance and accumulate purchases consistently. For that reason, I also agree with you that delaying purchases is not a very good thing because someone who delays purchases usually has deep doubts that prices will change faster than what he expected.

Oshimen is more or less Napoli's savior in every situation. His impacts in the team generally speaks a lot. Everyone loves him which is making it even more difficult for the team to let him go. Definitely they'd want to renew their contracts with him but it may not be exactly what he wants,his contract will terminate after next season and by then he'd be free and open to offers. Will Napoli be able to convince him on staying with them and renewing their contract? Or will the Chelsea rumours turn legit and then Chelsea chase after him?

 Oshimen is good for Napoli but he also needs to explore. Personally I don't advise him to opt for clubs that are trying to regain back their relevance in the football space. There are still other clubs that'd want him. Its not that Chelsea won't beat good team for him but rather it'll be difficult to cope at Chelsea and it may likely take a while which will in turn destabilize his abilities of play.
Of course there is no doubt that Osimhen is quite an influential player in the Napoli team and of course they will not let go of their star amidst the big temptation from the Premier League team. But anything can happen because the Serie A teams are experiencing big problems in their finances so if the offer on the table is big enough then the club will accept the offer. This season, Osimhen has played 9 matches and contributed 6 goals, of course still proving his quality as Napoli's goal machine. But yes, the injury hampered him in several matches and also internal problems with the team which made him lack enthusiasm this season.

Chelsea will secretly move to get Osimhen in the January transfer window. I predict that if Chelsea can bring him in, maybe Chelsea will be quite strong in the second half of this season. Let's see if Chelsea attempt to tempt osimhen will be successful or not because osimhen has previously clarified that if a team wants to use him then the condition is to play in the Champions League this season. And it will be difficult for him to accept their offer if the team does not participate in the Champions League this season.

Get out of the Champions League Milan after tonight super super miserable performance,Dortmund could have been winning 1-5 right now or even more if they had scored the huge amount of goal chances they have had so far,what a pathetic team Milan,I wonder how is a team like that fighting for the title in their domestic league,it must be down dramatically in performance the Serie A as there is really no other explanation to what I am seeing here.

Looks like the favorites Milan and PSG are saying good bye to Champions League this year as only one of them will go to the Europa League,the other out of every competition.
It was sad to see AC Milan being slaughtered by Dortmund in front of their supporters and for now the match has entered the final minutes and of course there is no longer a chance for AC Milan to turn things around. AC Milan this season certainly has a rally that is less impressive than their performance and I know the fans are quite disappointed with this result because AC Milan has no more chance of qualifying for the next round. On the other hand, AC Milan needs a bigger overhaul for their progress and Pioli is clearly unable to do it.

Maybe Dortmund can add another goal in the remaining minutes of added time because they played quite well in this match. I think Dortmund and Newcastle United might have a chance of qualifying from Group F considering that they have performed better so far compared to the other two teams. But for PSG they still have hope and I know group F is quite difficult for these four teams in securing tickets to the round of 16.

Inasmuch as bitcoin is concerned at this particular time, there is no need waiting for it to dip before buying and hodling. At this time what a good investor can to is to keeping buying bitcoin now irrespective of the fluctuations in the price of stocks in the market as bitcoin price may not dip lesser than this till the bull run begins. This is more reason why the DCA method is applicable at this material time as it will help an investor to be investing the same amount at difference period not withstanding the state of the price at that particular time.

Often times the problems we encounter while investing is impatient and fear of losing if peradventure the price of bitcoin dips after we've bought bitcoin and again due to this fear most time make investors to sell off their bitcoin earlier than it ought to have stayed. Investing in bitcoin requires patient to wait for a very long time before the investment can be matured for trading so in situation where an investor isn't patient enough to monitor the activities of stocks in the market it might actually lead to incurring losses.
Talking about prices, of course prices will fall unexpectedly and prices will rise unexpectedly. So in investing you need a lot of precise judgment to take advantage of the multilevel accumulation point when you have the opportunity to do so. I have studied the Lump Sum strategy, buy and hold and also act aggressively when the market situation turns red. As for all of that, in fact you have to be able to divide the funds you have into several stages to be able to take advantage of the market situation. Long term planning does require patience, sometimes we can buy aggressively or we can buy with DCA.

In that context, I believe people will accumulate Bitcoin when the market is down and they will buy aggressively at that time.  That's quite a good thing if you have a bigger budget. But as beginners, maybe we will start investing with varying levels of our financial strength to our goals in 1 year or 2 years. Patience is the key and playing buying and selling and buying and holding tactics is up to each individual.

SPL is a difficult one but most people viewed it to be a simple league with European players scoring goals on different levels. Al Ahli are struggling just like any other team that does have challenges this season, they're currently in significant position but that doesn't stop them from competing for the real points, winning becomes priority only when a team is stable in brilliant performance and not the other way round. Al Ahli are not just consistent in league games and that's definitely recording a poor stats for them in their previous league matches.
Because teams ranked 10th or below do not have equal strength with teams ranked 10th and above, there is still a lot of power imbalance if we look at what has happened so far. But so far the SPL has become a better league with more competitive competition compared to the previous season competition. Many top European stars joining the SPL team will provide interesting developments in every match they play. This season, everyone probably won't miss the matches played by Al Nassr and Al Hilal because these two teams have so far stolen the attention of football fans in every match they have played.

For the competition for the title this season, I think Al Nassr will be able to achieve it because they are in quite impressive condition with the good performance of Cristiano Ronaldo. Al Hilal, who have long occupied the top ranking as leaders of the standings, are starting to feel pressure every week because Al Nassr continues to follow suit by performing well in every match.

Criticism and praise are commonplace, especially for a team that has a lot of hope for many people like Man United. Man United was once a very shining team and had many proud achievements and I think this is what becomes the benchmark for their supporters and journalists, and compares it with what Man United can do now. What we have to realize is that that era has passed, and Man United is currently a team that is looking for their best path.

Of course, it won't be easy because there are many factors that influence it. Coaches, players, strategy, and team harmony will play a role in this. Another thing that might make it even more difficult is that Man United's current opponents are great teams who have really prepared well.
Loyal fans will be at the forefront in criticizing every decision from Manchester United management and also the performances of the players, so if the players perform impressively and the coach can bring about wins and significant changes, they will get extraordinary praise from the fans. For now Manchester United is a team full of their brilliant achievements in the years gone by and fans hope they can do it again under the guidance of Erik Ten Hag.

In the match against Everton, we have seen Manchester United appear quite impressive, if that is the start of a revival for them, of course that is quite good because Manchester United still has a chance to break into the top 4 rankings. For that reason, I think Erik Ten Hag can change the unstable situation for the better for the upcoming match and the victory in the match against Everton will be good capital for them for the Champions League match.

When they faced Chelsea, there was a lot at stake as, they were to face a known ally in Pochettino, who has something to prove and worst still, Spurs made a lot of mistakes in that game, caught 2 red cards. I mean, even though Chelsea isn’t at its best, that’s a game they’ve got to win.
Besides, we had Spurs playing high line all through that game and has been catching Sterling and Jackson offside all the time, it was only a matter of time before they figure things out and they did before the goals came pouring.

It wasn’t the same situation for Spurs when they faced Aston Villa today. Can’t say it was a mentality thing for them but, the absence of their play maker in Maddison has got to put the team in deep stress. No one is being that creative no more and Som can only do so much.
Yes, to be honest, this is quite a big problem for Tottenham because without Maddison there is no breakthrough that can be made to help the team win. Maddison played a big role in the attack effort which he produced which was converted into a goal by Son and without his presence maybe it would have been a problem for Tottenham and in fact it was quite right in the match against Aston Villa. Veliz, Kulusevski have not been able to carry out stronger tasks without being supported by Maddison and that is an obstacle for Postecoglou in rotating players in this match.

But a change in tactics had to be made by Postecoglou to end this bad streak and a storm of injuries did make them lose balance in their playing form. Son needs a ball provider who can understand his movements and that can only be done by Maddison so far. I predict that the coming week will be quite a tough week for Tottenham.

We have not seen a very clear and open offer from Real Madrid to be interested in Mbappe recently. Real Madrid seems to be two sided now; they are either in need of him but don’t want the whole public to know or they will want the player to make a move by himself or show interest that he wants to play for them before they’ll approach him with an offer. I know that the two sides will feel very bossy about it and each of them will want to feel more respected in the sight of others. Mbappe to Real Madrid is now a deal full with many uncertainties until the transfer window is opened where we know the destination of every player by next season football.
Of course, offers will not come before the transfer market opens because it could be a big problem if they plays a role behind the scenes. I think we have to wait for the January transfer window to open to see how interested Real Madrid are in Mbappe and whether they will be ready to spend funds that might be large enough to bring mbappe to the Bernabeu stadium. During the last summer transfer window, Real madrid were quite quiet about Mbappe transfer because they did no send any offers to PSG at that time.

I'm sure Real Madrid will wait for Mbappe contract to end with PSG and be ready to bring Mbappe to the Bernabeu stadium. So far, Real Madrid will indeed make improvements in the winter transfer window and this gap will be filled in for their front line. I think Real madrid target is to have a fairly capable sticker and they will focus on that as best as possible to be able to compete more strongly in the second half of this season.

Many fans and I also did not think that the Dortmoud team would be able to emerge victorious in this match after seeing the Moenchengladbach team score two goals against Dortmoud in the early minutes, but all that suddenly changed after Dortmoud team player Marcel Sabitzer managed to score one goal against Gladbach reduced the deficit to a score of 1-2 after that less than two minutes later the Dortmound players equalized the score again at 2-2, so from here the mentality of the Dortmound players improved and they continued to try to attack the Gladbach team's goal until the end match so that the Dortmound team came out as winners with a total score of 4-2 and made the Dortmoud team move up to fourth place with three points after the match.
Dortmund often give surprises and one of them was in this match where at the start of the first half the visiting team was able to score 2 goals but Dortmund was able to turn things around in normal time until the end of the match Dortmund managed to win. Dortmund hard work was quite impressive in this match because by being 2 goals behind they were able to improve their game to be better and this was proven by their efforts to take advantage of opportunities to score goals. On the other hand, their ambition is to return to the top 4 and the victory in the match against Moenchengladbach made Dortmund return to the top 4.

However, this season it seems Dortmund is having great difficulty competing with Bayern munich in the race for the title as presented in the previous season. Dortmund is 8 points behind Bayern munich who are in 2nd place in the standing and that's quite a big difference considering that this season doesn't end until the first half of the season.

It's hard to believe Tottenham's performance recently. Spurs started the season quite well and their phenomenal performance with their new manager left everyone stunned. However, three consecutive defeats means they now have to give up their position at the top of the standings. If you don't find a solution soon, it's possible that Son and his friends will be knocked out of the championship competition again, even now Manchester United is getting closer to them. Next, The Lilywhite will also face quite a tough opponent, namely against Manchester City. I predict that Spurs are in danger of suffering their fourth defeat in a row.
I think their problem was when they were beaten by Chelsea and at that moment their mentality immediately fell in the next match. Since the start of the season, their performance has surprised us because they were able to perform better when they didn't have Harry Kane in their squad, but in the last 3 matches, Tottenham experienced a significant decline in performance due to consecutive defeats. Son is playing quite well, he is even one of the players who plays quite an active role in Tottenham front line, but without the right partner he can't do much in the last 3 matches.

Ange Postecoglou certainly has to think of new ways to restore their strength to be better like they did at the start of this season. He must be ready for all obstacles, where when rotation is needed he must be able to manage it so that the balance of their game does not decrease. I think the Premier League is difficult to predict from one team performance at the start of the season because we believe Tottenham will compete for the title this season but it seems that will be difficult to happen.

Sometimes it happens like that in big matches where one team will be playing well and the other opponent will not be having access to the ball that much; what matters a lot is the desire result which I think Juventus did. This match shows that Juventus will be able to be in the title race.
I hoped Juventus could win this match before the match started but that didn't come true because this match ended in a draw. Juventus, playing at home, is not strong enough to beat Inter Milan and this indicates that Inter Milan is very strong this season and is at the forefront of winning the Scudetto. I was a little disappointed with Juventus in this match because after winning 1 goal they couldn't play better to maintain the advantage they had.

Both teams played more carefully in this match because in the first half the game was so open from both teams. But in the second half, both Juventus and Inter Milan did not play more aggressively in attacking, so in my opinion this match was quite boring in the second half. For AC Milan, they might be quite lucky with the draw achieved by both teams because by sharing the same points in this match, the points between these 3 teams are of course not too far apart. So AC Milan has the opportunity to get back to sticking to them at the top of the standings.

Yes, we can say that Barcelona's condition during this match was not optimal. Some of their first players experienced injuries and of course quite bad fatigue. So inevitably it still affects their performance. Even though they should remain as professional as possible, however, under these conditions, they cannot be optimal. The 1-1 draw with Rayo Valeccano made their position increasingly in danger of being overtaken by Atletico Madrid.

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Atletico Madrid is currently likely to win because they are leading 1 - 0 against Mallorca  until 69'
However, Barcelona was lucky not to lose this match because they couldn't score a goal and luck came when an own goal occurred and the score became 1-1. I see Barcelona being a little overwhelmed in this match because they had several good opportunities but couldn't convert them into goals. So, if the current standings position is where Barcelona is increasingly lagging behind Real Madrid and Girona and if Girona is able to win the match against Bilbao then Barcelona will already be 6 points behind Girona. But for that we'll see if Girona can maximize the gap in points with the teams below them.

Yes, Atletico Madrid is able to move Barcelona ranking because Atletico Madrid is already leading 1-0 and now the match has entered the 88th minute, which means that Atletico Madrid has a big chance of being able to maintain this advantage. I think they will play carefully and extra time will be a very crucial point to be able to maintain the advantage they have.

Brentford coach, Thomas Frank is dissapointed with his team's performance after defeats against Gunners. Mikel Arteta and his men are ontop of the EPL table, good news for the club and these players deserved accolades. Brentford is one of the competitive team that have sights on elite teams, not holding back but focusing on winning the opposition which proven difficult and denied accumulating three points today. The Bees got defeated at home after applying a tremendous defensive style. Arsenal was almost tie to draw but Kai Havertz open the scoring injury time, that was the goal the team have been longing for.
They should be disappointed because Arsenal managed to steal 3 points at they home and also Brentford was unable to balance a stronger game in the second half so that Arsenal could take advantage of the opportunity to appear better and score 1 goal to seal victory in this match. From the statistics of the game, Arsenal certainly performed better than the hosts, so the victory achieved by Arsenal really couldn't be denied by Brentford in this match. Havertz was a big hero for Arsenal in this match because he came on in the 79th minute and was able to score 1 goal and that was quite important for Arsenal in this match.

Apart from that, the additional 3 points make Arsenal return to leading the standings this week where Arteta men are 1 point ahead of Manchester City who are in second place. In tomorrow match, there will be many surprises because if Aston Villa manages to get 3 points then they will enter the top 4 by overtaking Liverpool and vice versa if Tottenham win again then they will get rid of Liverpool.

Newcastle achieved a convincing victory over Chelsea with a score of 4-1, and PSG also achieved a convincing victory 5-2 over Monaco. I really think this is a match that really needs to be avoided if you want to bet, because it is quite difficult to predict, although I understand that PSG has a better hope of securing 3 points.

PSG luck is in the form of squad depth and squad wholeness, and will be playing in front of their own supporters, so Enrique squad will play very comfortably. on the Newcastle side, Eddie Howe had to change his strategy in order to win again like in the first leg, but in reality the injury situation gave him a bit of a headache.

Newcastle victory over Chelsea cannot be completely used as a reference, because The Blues this season are like a club with an acute illness, I mean they are very unstable in the EPL this season. so overall the opportunity for the 4 clubs in group F is still open, even though Newcastle needs a little miracle to qualify for the round of 16.
If both teams performed well in domestic matches before their meeting in the Champions League, it would certainly be easy to predict the final result of their match, namely that the final result of the match they played would be a draw. I saw Newcastle United appear impressive when they silenced Chelsea at home and their game was relatively more aggressive from the start of the half so it doesn't surprise us that they are really in a very good situation when they visit PSG headquarters.

From PSG they also found their best form when they crushed Monaco, this victory will make PSG even more confident when facing Newcastle United. It looks like this match will be quite a hot match for these two teams who are competing to qualify for the round of 16. As far as I can see, PSG are favored because they don't have any injured players to face Newcastle United. But on the Newcastle united side, several of their players will miss the match against PSG due to injury, but from the previous match it seems like there is nothing to worry about with Newcastle united performance.

It is hard to always know what happened, but frequently if someone invests too much then they are expecting the price to go down and not prepared for it to go down, and surely there can be advantages to the BTC price going down, even if you had preferred for the price to go up, which is buying more when it goes down.

So it can take a long time to actually get ahead of your investment in order that the price is always coming to you rather than you going to the price, so if you just continue to buy in a DCA kind of way, that can be one way of getting ahead of the BTC price, even if it might take 2-3 years to actually get to a point that your cost per BTC is actually less than the current price.  It is not guaranteed to happen, but so far anyone who persistently buys BTC, has been ending up getting into profits, even though sometimes it could take 2-3 years before the "being in profits" stage can actually end up happening.

A person who panics, and does not continue to buy but then sells and buys will likely NOT really get to any kind of stage in which his./her holdings is in front of the price.. and it seems such a simple strategy to merely just continue to buy (sure buying on the dip is fine, but buying at any price might well end up being fine in order to keep a person in the right kind of mindset of continuing to build the number of BTC that s/he has in his/her holdings and keeping some faith that that BTC is going to be profitable in the future.. even though it is not guaranteed, it has been a pretty good place to put money and likely to continue to be a good place to put money.
Is it a form of risk that accidentally becomes a burden on their minds so that they are unable to survive when the price of Bitcoin drops significantly?  Indeed, investing large amounts of money or doing it all at once will affect their minds because they do not yet have a strong mentality when the situation turns around to what they expected.

In that context, investors who start with the DCA strategy may be better prepared when the market situation changes suddenly because they can buy more BTC and those who are not mentally strong may be quite stressed by this situation. However, the essence of this point is of course that long-term investment planning requires many things that must be prepared in advance, such as being mentally ready to face all changes that occur at unexpected times. Being a loyal holder of Bitcoin requires strong mental strength to be able to carry out what has been previously planned.

Many times there are trade-offs, and even though DCA tends to be the best, DCA might not be the best for a person who has a lump sum of money currently available, and it might be better to lump sum most, if not all of that money, and then perhaps just have money to continue to buy if the price dips.... that is why a newbie to bitcoin likely needs to consider the three categories of 1) DCA, 2) Lump sum and 3) Buy on dips, and perhaps have some money allocated to each of the three categories, and if s/he chooses to eliminate any of the categories, then s/he would have at least weighed the pros and cons of each of the categories.

So a person who suddenly has $6k available could divide the $6k into 3 parts, and then maybe also consider what to do based on considerations of anticipated cash coming in too.. so if the next 6 months, the person also has $6k of extra cash coming in, then that is going to be $12k over the next 6 months, and then another consideration might be how many BTC does s/he already have.  Maybe if s/he had already been buying bitcoin for a year then the perspective would be different from a brand new investor, and even as compared with someone who might have been buying BTC for 6 years or more.  How highly DCA would factor into the various situations is going to likely play out differently, especially if we also include some of the other factors such as view of bitcoin as compared with other assets, which other assets are already owned, risk tolerance, timeline, time, skills and abilities to trade, reallocate and/or to learn more as things go along.
But so far, perhaps I myself have never done one strategy, namely Lump sum and it is still foreign to me. Well, I use two other methods, DCA and Buy on dips. Yes, because I am not experienced enough and have to improve myself to continue learning from what you have explained. This situation made me add one word for me to learn and that is lump sum.

That trade off doesn't fall into the category of long-term investment, right?  As far as I know, they play for short term investments, when there is profit, they don't forget to take it. If I understand this point from what you explained, maybe someone who has a large amount of money will easily play roles in the 3 categories you have mentioned. But one thing that might be quite interesting is when they divide their funds into 3 categories and if at this stage the market situation is in a bullish condition, are these 3 categories really good enough to apply or is DCA better?

PSG's probability is higher than Newcastle in the fifth matchday match. both based on betting odds, and as the home team. apart from that, if we refer to their performance in their respective domestic leagues. In the first meeting, for me it was purely Enrique's mistake when developing his tactics and strategy.
Currently, PSG is playing their match against Monaco and three points is the result they must get. plus, motivating when Paris Saint Germain hosts Newcastle in the fifth matchday meeting of the Champions League group phase.

In fact, this match will be a real challenge for Newcastle as the away team, they will try to go all out to get full points at the Parc des Princess. not an easy match, especially technically and tactically, I think PSG is much better. If Newcastle fails, it means they will be eliminated in this group phase. in the other match in the Group E phase, it will be no less exciting and interesting. Dortmund and AC Milan will both be fighting each other to win in order to determine their chances of progressing to the next phase.
PSG is the favorite team to secure victory when they face Newcastle United. On paper the squads of these two teams are very different because PSG has many star players in their team while for Newcastle United they are not in their best form because of defeats in the domestic league and also lost in the Champions League when they faced Dortmund. So their decline in performance will make it difficult for Newcastle United to face PSG. Even though in the first leg Newcastle United was able to beat PSG with a score of 4-1, this second leg will make it quite difficult for Newcastle United to be able to repeat what they did in the first leg.

I think for group F the results of the 5th match this week will make these 4 teams determine their fate to be the best and strengthen them to qualify for the round of 16. PSG and Dortmund are currently quite favorites to qualify for the next round because these two teams have so far been quite strong compared to the opponents they have faced this week.

Al Nassr Sultan attacked very well in the first goal and gave the goal pass after very good control. After many attempts, Ronaldo scored in the 76th minute. He had already clearly shown signs that he would score in his previous attempts.

Immediately afterwards, he had another opportunity, the goalkeeper Akhdoud stepped forward and the ball bounced from him and remained in front of Ronaldo, who finished with a masterful shot. Ronaldo contributed to 15 goals this year, the goat does his best in every match.
Week 14 of the matches for this week where Al Nassr managed to secure 3 points at home. Al Nassr, who was the host in this match, played their star players to secure victory and Ronaldo has always been a big actor in Al Nassr success in achieving victory. In this match Ronaldo scored 2 goals and he performed quite well from the first half. Even though he is old, He is still quite troublesome for Al-Okhdood defense in this match. Indeed, from the opponent's point of view, it was easy to guess that Al Nassr would end this match with a win and that was proven when the final result was 3-0 for Al Nassr victory.

An additional 3 points made Al Nassr again reduce the difference in points with Al Hilal. Now the two teams are only 1 point apart and Al Hilal has the opportunity to widen the point gap with Al Nassr again if they are able to win against Al Hazm. If you look at it on paper, of course Al Hilal will have no difficulty securing victory because their opponents are the bottom team in the standings who have only won once this season.

I think the game is open to be won by either of Chelsea and Newcastle United. While Chelsea are knownn to be an inconsistent team and poor in front of goal; this season Newcastle United has also been inconsistent and injury ravaged which is enough reason to help gamblers understand its either any team wins or a draw ensues

Personally, i think Chelsea will win the tie, they are in good spirits and better form as well.
A trip that might be quite good for Chelsea if they can win the match against Newcastle United because this match is an away match and Chelsea previously managed to hold off Manchester City and also beat Tottenham. So if Chelsea manages to get 3 points at home to Newcastle United then Pochettino will be highly praised by Chelsea fans because he has succeeded in bringing about significant changes in the several matches they have played. I see that Chelsea is quite superior in this match, especially since they have good enough capital to face Newcastle United.

So, if Chelsea manages to get 3 points, I think they will be closer to the top 4, therefore Chelsea cannot afford to lose points in this match. Newcastle United is experiencing a downward trend this season where in their previous match they were defeated by Bournemouth and in the match against Chelsea I think they will find it difficult to recover from their defeat. So for this match I think Chelsea can take advantage of Newcastle United weakness because if Chelsea can score early they will be superior enough to secure 3 points.

Are you attempting to distinguish between someone who is just getting into bitcoin and investing versus someone who has been investing for a long time?  There's a difference.
True JJG, perhaps it is not very appropriate for them to measure the degree of difference in the time they have run in Bitcoin investments. Where early investors or those who have known Bitcoin for a longer time in 2013 of course they can buy at a cheap price. And for new investors or those who known Bitcoin this year they buy Bitcoin at a more expensive price but that only measures the entry level they.

The initial investor's investment journey might be better used as a combination to motivate us in our long-term Bitcoin investment journey. Buy aggressively or instantly depending on each strategy and all they need to do is balance your income and expenses to avoid disrupting they investment journey. I think many of the big investors from 2013 bought large amounts of BTC at cheap prices and they either immediately forgot about it or checked back in 10 years or 20 years. Yes they are billionaires now.

We cannot necessarily assume that people who have been in bitcoin for a long time have errored on the side of buying and accumulating BTC, and there have been a lot of mistakes along the way, including selling too many too early, and sometimes having regrets, sometimes suffering paralysis and sometimes getting back into accumulating at a later date, even if if they could have been much better off to have had not take a pause in their bitcoin accumulation journey.

Sometimes people need to go through some mistakes before they learn their lesson, and we have already seen examples of situations in which someone could have gotten into bitcoin in the last 4-6 years and to be doing quite well, but some of these people are also either not doing well and/or they might be engaging in earlier level accumulations of BTC in order to make up for their mistakes.   

Sometimes knowing too much about BTC can be a hinderance because we can get psyched out of buying more of it at higher prices, and so sometimes the people who are more newbies to bitcoin and investing may well end up passing up some of the guys who have known about bitcoin for a while but either failed to take sufficient and consistent actions or they might have sold too many BTC too soon and then their own psychology (and mental blocks) contribute to their thinking about bitcoin in wrong ways, including thinking that $100 per week is not enough, and they are too late, especially if they used to have 10 BTC and maybe since they have less than 1 BTC they might consider that they are never going to get to a similar level of BTC holdings again, especially if they ONLY can afford around $100 per week to buy bitcoin, but they think that is not enough.. which is true that it will not get them back to 10 BTC, but it may well still be the better (if not the best) of investment options that are currently available to them.

I have heard some financial shows and they do not even mention bitcoin as being part of the portfolio, which seems a very BIG mistake, too, so even people who are actively investing into bitcoin now and taking measures to get their finances (and psychology) in order are going to be in much better shape than those people who might not start investing in bitcoin for several more years.
Yes, that's true JJG sometimes they have bigger obstacles in their investment journey, whether it's selling too early or delaying buying. Sometimes I wonder why those who bought at high prices sell their Bitcoin holdings at low prices. Yes, we know that many of us buy dips and hope that big profits will come our way, but this is only possible for people who are patient and ready to go through many obstacles in their investments.

Yes, it happened to me that I made a fatal mistake in the previous years because I sold Bitcoin to gamble and that would be a valuable lesson to improve so as not to fall into the same hole. Revolution in adapting a new plan and experience is one of the keys to improving the situation for the future. Bitcoin has brought changes to those who are on the right path to becoming millionaires in the current era. For this reason, the journey of people who got to know Bitcoin earlier might be quite interesting to read about their history.
