Well I too have my own share of regrets with regards
to cryptocurrency and investments. I do wish I had
invested earlier when prices were low and bitcoins in
my country was not that much of a big deal. During
2010 until 2015, there was so much skepticism and
doubt about it, scams were always on the news and
people mostly associated cryptocurrency as one.
It was a different time then, even trading platforms
and bitcoin wallets were limited, very few options
were available in my country. But still bitcoins
prevailed over the years and now with all the other
crypto out there, it has sprouted and grown higher.
Even a 10 year old neighbor of mine has a bitcoin
wallet and knows the trends and nfts and stuff.
Im hopeful things are not that too late, prices are
a bit dipping right now so it’s a good start to probably
get back at it. Never too late.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"

It Never too late to know Bitcoin, but the most important thing with Bitcoin investment, try your possible best to carry out your personal research to know when to sell to make a passive incomes and know when to buy Bitcoin not to miss the next opportunity.

No one is going to get to "passive income" status with bitcoin or with any other "crypto" until after they have spent a decent amount of time building their investment portfolio... and if we focus on bitcoin, and do not get caught up in the various bullshit ideas of yield and a lot of that crap that causes people to store their bitcoin (or crypto) with third parties who may well end up gambling with their coins.

So if the goals are to work up to getting to some kind of a status in which you are able to live off of your bitcoin, then it seems to me that there is a need to build the bitcoin holdings to a high enough level that there are feelings of stability and security.. and that is likely to take most people a pretty damned long time, even if the come to bitcoin with a decent amount of capital/value that they want to inject (invest) into it in order to complement other investments that they might have.

If your investment is only in bitcoin, or only in bitcoin and dollars then there is a certain amount of risks and difficulties to deal with the ongoing and expected continued volatility of bitcoin, so having other investments can balance that out.. or another way to balance it out is to reach a status of being overinvested in order to be able to evaluate your the value of your holdings in terms of their bottom price (potential) rather than getting too caught up with the ups and downs.. .. but at the same time, none of us can really escape the roller coaster aspects of the ups and down of bitcoin, yet another question remains about how much to put into bitcoin, how much to retain in bitcoin, and what are appropriate and comfortable allocations into other assets.

Does anyone know appropriate and comfortable allocations of bitcoin as compared with other assets?  It's likely tailored differently for the circumstances of each person, right?

I am not against the idea of passive income, but I am bothered by it being used in ways that make it sound as if it is easy to achieve.. which a lot of marketers like to throw around such term, including trying to get you to invest into get rich quick schemes, and most of the time, it is going to take a decent amount of time to build up to "passive" income, and some income is more passive than other income as well. in terms of how much work is necessary and how much sitting back and relaxing is going to be in the cards?

Well I too have my own share of regrets with regards
to cryptocurrency and investments. I do wish I had
invested earlier when prices were low and bitcoins in
my country was not that much of a big deal. During
2010 until 2015, there was so much skepticism and

get back at it. Never too late.

One thing is to try to stay focused on bitcoin first instead of getting all distracted with various other projects.  Once you get some good grasp of bitcoin and establish your position in bitcoin, then maybe you can take a small portion of your stash and fuck around with other stuff.. but it really does not seem to be necessary to get involved in a whole bunch of bullshit with other things until you really establish yourself with bitcoin first.

Establishing yourself with bitcoin could take 4-10 years or longer - just depending on your situation, how much value you come to bitcoin with and your methods and strategies for investing into it.

Sure, we can look back at history and presume that bitcoin already had a "good run;" however, we continue to be in pretty damned early days.  Historically bitcoin was difficult to use and difficult to get into, and there are still some of the technical issues and lack of user-friendliness issues and also various ways that you can fuck up by not storing your bitcoin properly, not having proper back ups or otherwise screwing yourself to become parted with your coins.

So it seems to me that we are still pretty early days in bitcoin, even if you think that everyone has heard of it, but still we have relatively low investment levels in terms of the whole population, and even though there has already been decent price appreciation, there is still likely more upside to come - no guarantees with anything, of course.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted."  2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized.  3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

Forget the past about it all, because it only makes you disappointed. You sell Bitcoin from savings to treat your sick wife and save your wife. That's something commendable. This Bitcoin is worth nothing compared to your wife. What you have to do now is try to get back to getting Bitcoin even though it is not comparable to what you got in the past. I am touched to hear your story and your struggle.

You're right, maybe the OP will regret it more when he prefers to keep his bitcoins. What you do is right even if you lose bitcoins but you still have something more valuable than that. After all, saving someone would be more important than anything else. If I were in the OP's position I would do the same thing as the OP did.
Just imagine if you don't do it for your wife, maybe you will regret it from now on and maybe you can't forgive yourself.
Maybe I will say, do not regret because something you do is more valuable than anything.

This is a simple understanding for @beej I think it is true that he should focus on bitcoin more than any other coin which will not have the potential for the future, maybe we can look at his previous history of Bitcoin being so extraordinary with prices that continue to rise so this is as Proving the history of the past will certainly be important and I will understand how the bitcoin cycle will happen again in the future. I so believe.

4-10 years may be too long for him, there can be no DCA system or other means with the accumulation of his purchases, for me he just has to keep bitcoins for two years he will feel how to actually hold it, of course it will take a long time but at least with his belief that bitcoin is the future and also now is not too late to buy then it must be principally as a valuable coin meaning that it can store as long as possible will feel how bitcoin will be big later.

Never ever be tempted by a new project especially with big APY offers, HYPE, FOMO, and that has to be faced for @beej until you win with the full Bitcoin goal.

Besides all that has been said, I would like to add that it is never too late to start over. At the moment, starting probably in the spring of this year, I started all over again and started buying bitcoin, but now everything looks more complicated, the price is higher, but there have always been and will always be difficulties. You can start over and achieve even greater results, the most important thing is to understand that there are people nearby for whom you want to do this.

Many have sold their bitcoins at an early age and at a low price. But, the matter is that mostly thinks that the price would likely be low at those early times.
That's whoever have held for a long time and have been a solid believer of bitcoin then he/she deserves those profit that he had been through. It's okay that you're seeing those people buying their homes and cars and that's what they deserve. That's part of life and investing could really make you rich or it'll make you disappointed at the end because you've made a decision at that time that you have to sell because you've got nothing else to sell for most important thing on that day in the past.

Hello everyone, today i want to tell you about my crypto-depression.
So in 2010 i was working in IT company and my friend from work told me about bitcoin mining.
Next day after this information i register on this forum and start mining coins, everything going perfect but bitcoin price was really low and unstable.
I was investing everything in gpu. Couple times i lost my fund's on scam-exchange but i still had a lot of "mining power".
In 2015 i quited my job and invest my whole savings in bitcoin, in that time i had more than 15 bitcoin's and gpu worth 20k$.
And after 2 or 3 week's everything fucked up, in same time i lost my job and my wife get sicked.
In Nov 2015 i selled everything but still i had -$$$$ to pay, so you probably asking why i made this post?

Now after 6 years i have biggest depression ever, if i only burrow money from somewhere 5 years ago and didnt sell my miners...

I have feelings that i lost my biggest life chance to get really rich and i just want to forget about crypto and work in normal work but it is impossible.
It's hurt much more if you can see that your old crypto-friend's get cars and houses from crypto profit, i wonder if someone have some feeling's as me.

I believe that there will be many people who have your experience, and it is useless to regret. But as an early participant, or when Bitcoin first started, you were lucky enough to join. What I want to ask is: Have you studied Bitcoin in depth and improved your awareness while doing your job well? But I hope you will not be discouraged. It is still in the early stage of Bitcoin. Every day is a new beginning, and you can participate. Keep a good attitude. Good luck.
