When I came to know about Bitcoin and other crypto currencies, the Bitcoin was 500 US dollars and slowly it fell to 200 US dollars. At that time I could not invest any thing in Bitcoins so I missed the chance now it crossed 1000 US dollars may be it can reach its peak of 1300 US dollars like in 2013 or may raise more than 1300 also. Once again it come down I wish to invest this time, I do not wish to loose the chance.

Moreover, bitcoin prices was not sustaining around $200 price levels in many exchanges as far as I have followed. It was dumbed to $164 price levels in some exchanges but it bounced back to $220 straightaway.

$240 was the possible price range, anyone would have bought. It was scenarios of 2015 January. So, need not to worry about missing out price levels, you are still having many opportunities if you believe into bitcoin : buy now and hold longer haul till you will be able to.

Then Why don't ya go for it?

With the recent events on the price, im able to get inside the mind of future investors and I can understand the fear of getting in, since the price seems very volatile and at the mercy of government's press releases... but, if you think very long term, you can see how bitcoin transcend governments, therefore sky is the limit (bitcoin should aim to transcend governments.. otherwise it will never reach his full potential.)

I had the opportunity to join bitcoin at 250-300 dollars value October 2015 if im not wrong, anyway on those time i havent a big ammount to invest, i bought 1,20bitcoins and i sold it when it reached 350 dollars. I had made my profit and i were a newbie didnt know almost nothing about bitcoin, but i had risked my money into bitcoin, if you have no balls dont invest, bitcoin has huge potencial but being at the stage¨IF¨ wont change anything at your life.

Situation was also same for me, when bitcoin price was swinging around $400 and i have strong believe that price can boost well above $1k within 2016 but i didn't had much fiat in my hand and couldn't convince my father to invest some of his fiat in bitcoin. When i showed him price touching $1100 on end of last year, he get convinced to invest some if price get dumped but i don't think i will get any at price below $700.

Join the club, OP, and it's a big one.  I watched bitcoin for a good year before actually buying any, and I'm lucky.  I was watching the price in 2013-14 during the bubble, and it was craziness.  And I think when I finally bought my first amount of BTC, we were in the $300s.  Ugh, I really wish I'd bought and held--and I was using Coinbase at the time, and it was pretty convenient.

Hindsight is 20/20.

You cannot blame yourself OP, bitcoin was very volatile back then and there are too many news or articles claiming bitcoin is just a scam. It is very risky investment back then. The good news is, you know better today. It is never too late to invest in bitcoin. Every now and then, there are dips and that is a good chance to buy bitcoin before it goes to the moon and never come back.

Bitcoin was highly volatile, else it could have reached more adoption by now. Now only the volatility have been found within limits which gives hope to people that they won't lose at any instance.  During those days people feared of investing into it. Now they have started it as the best investment as it gives earning if its just hold in the wallets.

today it could be your new $200: maybe you will regret not buying some even today. I've personally lost a lot a the beginning simply because I had to learn how to deal with BTC (security, not relying on exchanges, mastering the keys etc.)
BTC forced me to study many things I've never heard of and today it gave me a true financial fredoom. That's fine by me.

[maku]

At this point I think it is safe to assume that there never be a $200 again. Current decline period is the best that could happen, it is a door for everyone who wanted to join bitcoin race.
Because at this point we know that BTC has tremendous potential to go much higher, and news about AML policies of Chinese government is more FUD than anything real.
I am bemused by remarks: 'I think bitcoin it too expensive, I wish I invested when it was worth $XX'. But do you realize than in the future BTC could be worth thousands or more?

Don't be a nutter.

Considering the huge systemic risk involved with Bitcoin, you have missed the boat. Even if Bitcoin went to $1600, that is still only double.......there are loads and loads of legit stocks from solid companies who will perform way better than this going forward. Just hunt around for some energy and/or mineral resource stocks that have taken a severe beating over the past few years and are showing signs of bottoming out, just like Bitcoin did in 2015....

.....You don't want to be even considering going long term long in Bitcoin until the price chart has stretched itself right out. Right now, Bitcoin is still in parabolic territory, with huge volatility likely which is great for short term trades, both long and short, but a volatility that is likely to resolve itself to the down side.

Don't worry there's worst : i need money for personnel reason at one moment, no other way - to be honest i become homeless : so I sell my 22 btc for 2900$, I know it was a so bad idea, it will come back to 1k/btc soon or later, i know it but i REALLY need coins at this moment, that's life.... (i paid 15 btc ~4k/one, trade and win 7 btc then send sell near the lowest price in summer 2015)... without that problem i would be high (enough for me).

So i start again in december.. and i my mind its not my my coins so i can not take them for personal reason, whatever it is.

I only do open order (as i did) and wait, without worry.

You are not alone in this and many people have missed the chance to invest in bitcoin when the price was $200s but if you missed the chance to sell at 1.2-1.3k then the price now is not as bad as you think, it is a good time to invest if you want to hold them and you think to invest for a long term.

I miss it when it was under 0.01$ .. 1st time i saw this new money i wanted to give it a try, buy for 50 €, the last moment i said "no times more" (it was more complicated to buy them in 2009).. i was on the way to take for 50€, more 10k btc for less 50$ ALL... i didn't.. I won't hurt myself :;

[SnokkomBTC]

Why not buy one bitcoin today? If it falls to $600 you buy one, at $500 you buy one. And so on. Your average buy would be ~$ 633. So you don't have that much lost(%). If you bought one bitcoin today and it wil start to rise to $2,000 you don't regret. If it keeps falling you can buy with fiat to make your average buy <<.

Just make a plan. And if you believe in Bitcoin this is the best investment strategy.

Now, as most users feel I too have thought felt bad of missing the chance of buying at $200, but I was aware of it when the price was at $200 I could have not given consideration because as a common men I too won't think of investing as well I could have not believed in its potential.

What are you waiting for? Bitcoin to go back to $200? That's not gonna happen, so take your chance now and buy BTC is at $800ish right now now if we look at last year's records then bitcoin was at $450 at beginning of 2016 and reached $900 by the end it doubled in value so i think its probable that bitcoin would be around $2000 range by end of 2017.

interesting because i started to use bitcoin when it was about 400-500 and then it went down but i bought some small amounts at those prices and never sold even when price went to $200.

i don't say it wasn't hard, i came close to selling specially with all the negative comments i keep reading everywhere but everytime i thought about selling i stopped for a moment and did an assessment and decided to wait. and surely enough i have gotten pretty awesome results. and i am still buying more.

There is still plenty of time to invest in Bitcoin. We are still in the early adoption phase, as there are only around 1 million users right now. This phase will go on till 2020 or even further. So no need to feel disappointed.

There are really times that we missed the opportunity and we regret things in our life. That is part of our daily learning system in life, it is normal as long as we learnt from it. I myself had been a person who need assurance first before trying the next time, but, what I realized is we have always to discover everything by ourselves. This time I will assure I have investment in bitcoin before it's too late again.
