It seems to me, although i can be wrong, that about 90-95% of users of this forum own less than 0.5 BTC. Am I right?
Anyone can attest that?
You're probably right but there's no real way of knowing. Some very established posters often casually mention having tiny overall amounts.

Lets say that is true and why some people are still buying bitcoin and where it gone? I think they always buy and I guess it will more than 5 btc but still they poll and said that got below 1? How to all that make sense?

No idea. I was just guessing. Maybe people claim it to look cool and relevant. I would've thought most exchange buying is just trader bots lining things up for the next move.

Yes its true if you got like 100 bitcoin its look cool but I think you heart must be beat faster scare that if one day the price suddenly go down and you will got nothing. May be they just think like that scare to lose that much so they just convert it into their own currency

If your target is to having this 30-50 bitcoin only from buying I guess that is quite easy to get but its better for you to play a lot of trading, signature campaign, gambling or anything that can increase your own bitcoin without spend your own fiat. You can do saving and investing both of it so it will be like hit 2 birds with 1 rock ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Sig campaigns yes. Trading is best left to those with wills of iron and years of experience. Trying to make money out of gambling is an overwhelmingly pisspoor idea.

I am not a gambler as such so I believe that would be a bad choice for me. Trading I am not experienced with either. I earn a pretty good living so in my situation I'll leave the gambling to the lucky ones and the trading to the experiences ones with more time than myself. I'm sure a lot of people tell me I am mad but I'll keep buying when I can until I reach my goal ......or it gets to expensive to stack anymore.

Why does it matter? OP should remove the year date as the question is not time or year related.

You can learn trading and there are so many people will guide you in the right path. If you just buying like this you will waste all your fiat and it is good when the price go higher your value is raise too but how about if the price is drop? You are just wasting your money right? So better you stop spending your fiat and try to learn about trading

I own some BTC15 as of now, after converting some BTC10 to fiat during the last few weeks. Started collecting them in 2012, when the coins were dirt cheap. But lost a major part of my stash in some scams. And now I am neck deep in debt, so I need to convert a part of my coins to fiat. In the next few weeks, I might covert a few more of my coins to fiat.

Most people selling TA advice are making a living from those e-books, speeches courses or whatever, rather than by doing TA themselves, that's the catch.
