Also, those who say why not bet on this if you are too sure, I don't trade. I look for opportunities to buy.
One of your later posts reminded me of this earlier assertion from you regarding your supposed looking for opportunities to buy.
For sure, each of us should be attempting to figure out BTC accumulation strategies that are tailored to our own circumstances, and those of us who have more bitcoin have more luxuries in terms of already being prepared for UP.. so we might not be too concerned whether we accumulate more bitcoin or not.
Your forum registration date is pretty damned recent, ImThour..,. March 2020.. which actually would have been a pretty good time to get into bitcoin and to get into bitcoin BIGgedly... but surely so many people got scared from events around March 2020.. and likely had some troubles psychologically (and perhaps financially as well) to jump into bitcoin BIGgedly at that time.
Of course, anyone who ended up acquiring a solid bitcoin position in the few months around March 2020 or even a less optimal position of aggressively lump summing into bitcoin prior to September 2020.. would likely have ended up in a pretty damned decent financial position overall - especially given bitcoin's price performance that largely lifted off around September 2020.. and has not really crashed in any kind of meaningful way after September 2020 to even get close to those around $10k per BTC September 2020 prices.
Perhaps guys like you ImThour are experiencing too many regrets about NOT lump-summing or front-loading into bitcoin in those early to mid 2020 times, and so now, you are engaged in a lot of fantasies to attempt to make-up for your then mistake.... and fantasizing about the BTC price going down in BIG ways.. and then you can make up for either your fuck up or just your overly whimpiness in entering into bitcoin.
Even though I feel that I can blame you currently for your ongoing dumbass overly bearish proclamations, its really difficult to blame anyone for being overly whimpy in terms of entering into bitcoin, especially their first year into bitcoin. There can be all kinds of legitimate reasons that normies or new entrants into bitcoin are going to tend towards whimpiness when they are first investing into bitcoin.
I even tend to recommend some variation of whimpiness - to the extent that DCA'ing rather than lumpsumming into bitcoin is a relatively greater form of whimpiness....
To try to save myself from some blame, I have frequently attempted to recommend front-loading into bitcoin too.. and that was my own strategy in 2013 and 2014 when I was first building my bitcoin position... and my front-loading did not really pay off that great for me since upon Monday morning quarterbacking what I did versus what happened, I would have better off to have started out a bit more whimpy and then becoming more aggressive later as the BTC price was falling throughout 2014 and then stayed pretty damned flat through most of 2015 - yet even with the greatness of the 2013 BTC price run that ended up resulting in a pretty great correction and even a great stagnation in order to allow for buying support to catch up, there still was no real and/or meaningful way to have high levels of certainty regarding how much of a stake in bitcoin would have been sufficient preparation for UP... .. so in that regard, even though retroactively assessing the matter, I overpaid for bitcoin I still feel good about the whole situation because I had a kind of psychological need to be prepared for UP... which overly stacking bitcoin seemed to satisfy such need. .. even if it took a decently long time (more than 3 years) for some of my purchases to become profitable.
Seems to me that your supposed (to the extent that any of us can believe anything that you say) overly obsession about "searching for buying opportunities" fails/refuses to appreciate the value of DCAing.. and preparing for UP, and I am not even saying that both front-loading and buying on dips are not good supplemental strategies, even though I do think that it remains important to continue to highlight some of the nonsense aspects of your supposed philosophy of supposedly looking for buying opportunities, when we already are in the midst of 40% to 50% BTC corrections, and you are fantasizing about additional 50% to 85% dips from here.. which are hard to even take seriously in any kind of way except to categorize them as either long shot (in the ballpark of 5% at best and more likely less than 1% scenarios... to the extent anyone might be assigning higher probabilities to some of your out-of-this world expectations in terms of where BTC prices might be going in the short term... such as within the next year).
