I'm new here on Bitcointalk because Bitcointalk is important for Bitcoin

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

I hope, I'm not late for Bitcoin because Bitcoin already grew a lot.

No, you are not. Despite the fact that Bitcoin price has grown far beyond its starting price, there are still many more high prices it will cover. In 2021, the Bitcoin price saw an all-time high, but after that, the bear market set in and the market crashed again, which some people did not even expect after reaching a very all-time high. So, if you are consistent in accumulating your Bitcoin, just as you have only started, then you will make a profit in the long run. Don't procrastinate your investment, and don't invest harder than you can handle; otherwise, you might not be able to hold it for a long time. Also, remember that Bitcoin investment is not just a short-term investment.

it's never too late to build an investment. not that the value of Bitcoin is already so high compared to when you looked at it a few years ago.
You should look at a chart of Bitcoin price movements, and you will be able to understand why more and more people are coming to invest in Bitcoin. this is not only because the price has increased greatly. but also related to existing technological developments.

welcome to the forum, if you want to learn more about Bitcoin. You are in the right forum. then it's up to you where to start and how you develop your potential.

Welcome OP to the forum and while I don't remember the excitation of my first post anymore, I don't mind if you put a little bit too much icing on the cake. It's OK, enjoy the ride and keep up your enthusiasm.

To learn more about Bitcoin you can of course read here but I love this site: https://learnmeabitcoin.com (work yourself slowly but steadily from beginners to technical sections; I still visit it from time to time to brush up things that I forgot).

Learn to use the forum search or even better and faster is the wonderful site https://ninjastic.space

It's always appreciated when someone who has questions has done at least some amount of prior search as a lot of topics have already been covered. The difficulty lies in finding them, especially in a large forum like this...

Don't get discouraged, we've all been there, too.

1. I hope, I'm not late for Bitcoin because Bitcoin already grew a lot.
2. Also, Bitcointalk has many established member. I try to make a good contribution, I try to be polite ofcourse.
3. Bitcointalk has many interesting topic. Everyone who knows Bitcoin should know Bitcointalk.
And we can learn A LOT from Bitcointalk.

1. You are not late, as there is no time that is ever too late to join Bitcoin, as the coin is not dying anytime soon and there is no price limit, which one could say has gotten to a point where profits can no longer be made, nor is Bitcoin a fabric material whose quality could fail out based on how it has been used. Now that you have come to know about bitcoin and want to start your journey, all you could be thinking about is mapping out your plan on how you will use it to accumulate as much as you can afford. The DCA strategy will definitely be the best, as you can accumulate as you grow.

2. Contribute where you have something you can share with the community that could be beneficial to others, and others can learn from your knowledge as you will also do the same. Here in the forum, you allow the forum to pass through you, and you also pass through the forum as it's the best way to grow.

3. Not everyone who knows about bitcoin knows about this forum; many might have heard about it, but they are not in this forum as they learned about bitcoin outside of this forum and established their knowledge more by doing some self-research, where they might have come across the forum name but might not know how active and informative the forum is.

Bitcoin is safe now for 10+ years and many hacker tried to hack Bitcoin. No hacker succeeded because Bitcoin is proven to be safe.

I agree that Bitcoin network is highly secured now but it is wrong to assume that Bitcoin had never been hacked.  There is an incident where an attacker had successfully hacked and exploited network that produced 184 Billion BTC being minted.  There is this article that states the event when Bitcoin network had been successfully hacked and exploited.

There is supposed to be two incident but the second incident was detected earlier  by the BCH developer (supposed to be previous BTC developer) and took selfless action before it was exploited by the bad actor.

The event when the hacked took place is as follows:

1.The CVE-2010–5139 bug on August 15th, 2010 resulted in 184 billion BTC being minted. On the heels of this event, core developers Gavin Andresen and Satoshi Nakamoto had to roll back the blockchain in order to purge this transaction from block 74638.

2. More recently, on September 17th, 2018, the CVE-2018–17144 bug was discovered by a Bitcoin Cash (BCH) developer who selflessly took action before it could be exploited by a bad actor.

These are called inflation bug. You can read more about it here: https://medium.datadriveninvestor.com/itcoin-unhackable-it-happened-twice-not-blowing-smoke-9e16bcddd5ab

Seriously, I am pretty impressed by your post, especially considering that this is your first post in the Bitcointalk community. In your attempt to describe bitcoin, I think you may have some knowledge about it. It's great to see you within our means and you are welcome. op I wish you would continue to be so enthusiastic about studying Bitcoin, but all I know is that you want to learn a lot and become very knowledgeable about Bitcoin and it blockchain technology, you won't be afraid to ask questions. Please don't be shy about asking for assistance; there are plenty of members that can help you out.

I hope, I'm not late for Bitcoin because Bitcoin already grew a lot.

Honestly, early investors have benefited a lot from their Bitcoin investments,and even new investors will benefit due to the nature of Bitcoin volatility, so never think that it may be too late for the price of Bitcoin. If the price of Bitcoin is determined by its demand, I don't think it will always be late due to its volatile nature, so far, people are keeping using it and adopting it.

Welcome to the forum. You are not late for bitcoin just that you missed some good moment when the market was bullish in nature but do not worry no time is too late to begin the bitcoin investment journey it only requires your money, your knowledge and your time once you have got this, then nothing is stopping you again.

. Don't procrastinate your investment, and don't invest harder than you can handle; otherwise, you might not be able to hold it for a long time. Also, remember that Bitcoin investment is not just a short-term investment.

It's good you cleared out the procrastination aspect for the fellow when it's come to accumulating more BTC in your investment because this has been the major problem for many folks and it's occurs in almost every aspect of your life not only  when trying to keep with an investment. Procrastination is very much destructive and it can delay and way you so back down so I will like to sound out the warning on you trying as much as possible @OP to avoid procrastinating when you are building up your portfolio.
