If you hold 1 BTC you are a pioneer

[oblivi]

I think that pioneers is guys who working with bitcoin from the beggining, nowdays everyone know how to make some money so we can't be a pioneers anyway.

Everyone says that people who bought at $100 are really pioneers of bitcoin, but to be honest we are also pioneers as bitcoin has not reached everywhere yet and when it will reach the value would be higher which will make us pioneers.

People that get in in 2026 will think 2016 people were pioners, people that get in 2036 will think people that got in 2026 are pioneers.. and so on, the cycle never ends. The more you stay in delusion ignoring BTC the worse it will be.

That's true and I think rather then thinking of anything else we should concentrate on collecting bitcoins at a moment, as more coins we hold higher profits can be expected in future.

I think 2026 could be last year to be pioneers. In 2026, the bitcoin will be more popular. In 2036, most people in the world will have bitcoin.

Thats right I think. I can classify myself as pioneer too as I think bitcoin is still on its early stages, bitcoin are just here for 5years and still counting.

[Legasean]

Holding is now the best thing that you can do and that is because the value of Bitcoin will be more worth so that is really nice.
And the chance to make some profit is also higher, you have just only to wait and see for what will happen later.

Holding 1 btc for long term is really a good plan and you need to make maximum efforts to multiply your coins as more coins will result in higher profits in future.

Which is exactly what's happening right now... people don't believe in Bitcoin, they don't use Bitcoin as we envisioned, they don't want Bitcoin.
Face it, the only thing anyone holding bitcoin right now wants is getting rich in USD or whatever local fiat currency they use.

[manselr]

In a lot of years, people will think that the people of the present that didn't buy 1 BTC when it was possible without being rich where complete idiots.

[OrangeII]

piooner or not, I think it would be the same. if the price of bitcoin increases, it will make a profit, and make them jealous, but if you hold 1 BTC and then the price goes down, you can still make it grow by investing or trading. all depends on your thinking

[sallymeeh27]

i think buying and holding 1 BTC should be anybodys goal,

i have already reached this goal and i think myself as a pioneer. because lets face it, bitcoin is so undervalued right now and it can go so high up in the price.

Its good if you have kept 1 btc safe for future, but this is the time to earn or buy as much as we can, so even if price is lower in future if we hold more coins it can help us in best possible way.

I am not sure if that is the basis of the people around that holding a 1 btc will make you a pioneer. I think that depends on the knowledge of the person who even does not hold any btc at all. Anyone can buy a btc on their own as long as they have the money but if a person does transact more about btc in every day transaction then I would include that he knows what btc is for. Buy and sell in btc will have you more earnings in the future and will make you have more business.

Well, i'm holding around 2 bitcoins right now and it's because  the price of bitcoin increase so high and the halving is close. So i'm also a pioneer but hold 2 bitcoins haha.

[Betwrong]

If you hold 10 or more you are part of an elite.

This is my conclusion after the years I have been involved here. Absolutely no one in real life knows what the hell Bitcoin is, and even your most geeky friends may probably never heard about Bitcoin. Now if you take into account the people that has heard about it... what percentage own 1 BTC? Exactly.. you know almost no one.
And what percentage own 10 BTC? I personally know no one (people from this forum don't count obviously).

This simple observation shows you only need 1 BTC to be a pioneer on Bitcoin in 2016.

Thanks for this! I have 1 BTC so I'm glad someone calls me a pioneer. And you are right about people in real life: I have a friend, he lives in a very big city and works for banks as a software engineer, we haven't spoke for several years and one week ago I was talking to him on Skype and I was very surprized but he didn't know about Bitcoin until that time we spoke.

Yeah 2 btc is really good amount to hold at this stage as price will go higher at the time of halving and you can make good profits by selling at that time.

In 2012, I held nearly 40 BTC. In 2014 it was roughly 20 or so. Today I hold less than 5. Its not because I gambled them or such, but i cashed out. I almost cried when i sold 20 btc at 200 a pop when less than 6 months later it climbed above 1k.

That's not nice, but be happy you didn't buy at 1200 dollar either;)

The amount of btc is not important the fact that you hold bitcoins makes you a pioneer.

The price holds then your theory is correct.

But if the price point isnt high like how it is now and holds then they still have a chance without facing to hear all the problems we seen with bitcoin.

The only edge we have is pretty much is have slight more coins then most average joe.

Its always good to hold maximum number of coins for future as we are not sure what will be the price of bitcoin in coming years, and I think 1 btc will not make you rich you should  at least hold 50 btc.

And not so long after that it was under 200 dollars again. If you would have bought it back, you'd be laughing again now.

Although I like the statement that we're all pioneers, you can only know that for sure when much more people use it. With blockchain being full without space for more transactions that won't happen though, the netwerk simply can't handle it.

I bought some in August last year. I have used some from then to now. I will keep on using them to help the ecosystem.

[a7mos]

holding 1 bitcoin may make you a pioneer in the future if more people start using btc and the price become very expensive because of the limited number of available coins. but without more users, being a pioneer would be useless
