Be greedy when others are fearful...

[zakariajaki]

I agree with that, as a trade and economic principle, especially concerning a price, opportunity and opportunity to make people will continue to speculate whether it is related to the circumstances or time is made tense or vice versa, when the circumstances and conditions are also used in such a way to sale or purchase or economic practice, it makes sense when all can be achieved in addition to the carefulness and accuracy of experience when reading the situation and market conditions, be it on the stock exchange market or crypto, may be useful and successful for all of us

I will tell you the secret to getting rich on Wall Street. You try to be greedy when others are fearful. And you try to be fearful when others are greedy.
-Warren Buffet

This quote is constantly bandied about as justification to invest in Bitcoin, and especially now that there has been some nice price movement in the upward direction. But this Warren Buffet quote is only relevant with the proper context, which is that Warren Buffet only invests in things he has a fundamental understanding of and can quantifiably value. You can confidently be greedy when others are fearful if you have a sound investment thesis and are a fundamental value investor. This is how he turns his investments into home runs, he knows what he's buying and what it's worth and can weather the negative sentiment until the market learns what he already knows. This doesn't apply at all to a speculative investment like crypto. Following this advice willy-nilly is gonna get you burned because you're misunderstanding the intent and the application.

Don't not buy Bitcoin if that's what you want to do, but don't fool yourself into thinking you're following Warren Buffet's advice. Warren Buffet doesn't speculate, and if you're buying crypto, you're speculating.

That quote doesn't need to be followed by us. He may intend to mean something more than that. And I think sometimes it doesn't work on cryptocurrencies.

People are greedy now and many are buying I millions of dollars are you advising us to sell now?  I think selling now is to sell too cheap because this is a healthy bullish trend we are having for the first time of the year.  We could actually sell now and buy back during the next corrections that will happen because of this pushed, however, it is better to hold.

[Lorence.xD]

He is great to be the most respected person in the world, I just say that it is true then to be yourself, this world is so difficult it takes courage to be a very feared person and do not care about other people's conversation It is important that the business is as beautiful as now .
Investments everywhere are very reasonable because at the age of 11 Warrent Buffett has bought his first share with a very young business, his hard work is very good, as his knowledge and maturity grow heavily by buying farms and other stocks.

In this world we need to take advantage of all things, as early as now we need to invest for the future, many people hesitating in terms of investing because of fear, we need to think that everything have a consequences, on my opinion when you are expert or have a knowledge about investing money dont hesitate to invest, You need to bet, dont lose the opportunity trust yourself to be a succesful in the end.

 We have different opinion on the above topic. Why be influence by one person on your investment from your hard earned money? Investment on Bitcoin is individual choices. You take all the consideration before investing, the risk of losing such investment, the market trends, price value on the said coin, all of this are just indicator for which one person should take into acct. before a final decision is made.

[Kira_lapa]

Totally agree with you. You can not keep a coin if you are not sure that the price will grow. You need to have immense knowledge in this field, be able to analyze the state of the market and the prospects of coins. Without this, it's better not to take chances. IMHO

[Wendigo]

This has been said a million times already, but I will repeat it once more : if you buy the dump and sell the pump you will make money on the crypto exchanges long-term. Be greedy = you are buying coins while others are fearful and selling on the dump, be fearful = you are selling coins while others are greedy and buying on the pump. Believe it or not the market follows a pattern and if you are doing the opposite of what others are doing you will make money. Don't follow the sheep

Keep holding the coin if you are sure that it has a future and also on the dips keep buying so that you can make the best of the returns when the prices rise. May be short term the price may be in a down side but we all know how quickly the markers can be recovered.

I don't know how I feel about that quotation.

Warren Buffett didn't invent that concept or mentality. Its a fundamental observation many investors, traders and businessman have repeated over the centuries. Some of the best investment opportunities were to be found during the crisis of 2008 when bank stocks were severely underpriced--before the bailout bill was announced. Bitcoin would have been a good investment around 2014 when silk road was closed and china cracked down on exchanges. The idea that opportunities abound under circumstances where people are fearful like the 2008 crisis or bitcoin's 2014-esque crash is a common theme throughout history.

AFAIK Buffett made his fortune utilizing long term HODL investment strategies based on market and business fundamentals. He wasn't someone to make spur of the moment deals or profit from times when the market was at its lowest and future prospects were bleak.

What happens when people are both greedy and fearful? That's a question which interests me. It could be something to be answer in order to accurately anticipate which direction markets and economies are headed.

I disagree with you. As you wrote this post in economics section, we should be talking about bitcoin rather than the whole cryptocurrency market. We can't directly point at bitcoin or at what backs up its value. This doesn't mean, however, that the price is pure speculation. Bitcoin can be used as payment and as means to monetize online projects. If people believe in it, allow to use it and actually implement it into various platforms, its value is not less real than that of the gold. Bitcoin is not backed up by anything, but it can be the back up for other things. Moreover, as bitcoin represents blockchain technology, we can say that is has most of the value attributed to this technology, because it is not very serious to rip them apart.

[Ava Duvall]

In the encrypted market if you greed you will die, so set a clear clear goal so it will be better for you.

Exactly, you can lose everything very quickly. its better to have a clear and planned out strategy and stick to it. i think its the best way to lose as little as possible

[1Referee]

It's important to understand that experts or gurus in certain parts of an industry don't necessarily mean they are as knowledgeable in other industries.

Warren Buffett has done extremely well in his life, which I respect him for, but we shouldn't overexaggerate his investment skills.

Everything with fundamental value will keep going up, and the only thing he's doing is position himself in companies offering that fundamental value. You only need patience here, which is quite an easy task if you during the years scoop up dividends that you can reinvest directly to generate more income.

You know what he's doing when his favorite stocks are going down? He buys more because he knows that their value will go back up.

What do people here when Bitcoin is going down? They sell because they are too afraid to just let the market correct naturally.

Bitcoin has that fundamental value and we have enough years functioning as evidence. It doesn't matter what price you buy at, you'll profit later on anyway.

I somewhat agree on this. Especially when others are trying to be greedy we should be very careful because the whales are speculating the market and they are waiting for the right opportunity to dump it. So we can face huge amount of losses. But I also think that Warren Buffet is not a cryptocurrency expert, though I agree on what he said. So we should not follow his statements blindly.

[darthmaul]

Interesting but I am not going to follow that strategy at all. I guess being greedy in any situation is harmful for our trades and we must take care of it. Its our money that we are going to stake here and thus can cause financial damage to our assets. Lets consider the fact that Warren is rich guy and he wont get affected with what he is loosing at all. I guess we are ordinary investors and we should not be greedy at all. We have limit assets to invest or re-invest and hence keeping our steps with at most care is advisable. At least from my point of view.

So what is the meaning of the quote? I can't understand what you are implying here but what is do know is to buy when others are in panic selling because this is the time that the price will go low. Get greedy to buy when the price gets low is what the qoute makes me understand.

Definitely many of us here having this thought also why would you afraid to lose your money when you will just think that you can earn on that thing? This is how the quote being implied with taking advantage on the areas where this kind of investment had inculcated a lot of fear from the FUDS scaring you to get away with it. Well if you are just familiar with this investment then definitely you will not turn your heads away.

Honestly I would not advice you to listen to any "big whale" out there. Make you own decisions and live your own life. You dont have to listen to what others say because everyone here is on their own propaganda and notbody gives free advice on trading. Because real investors never speak of their real investments. What we see is only a small fraction of it, never take their words for granted nor get motivated by them.

If you believe in crypto and its future, buy it. If you dont, well...then what are doing in this forum?

[ethancer]

Be greedy up to a certain point. Never invest more than you can afford to lose. Learn everything you can about crypto, study it, invest where you feel confident.

[diodorako]

That is what the quick learners do. This could come only with experience though as you have to make a calculated decision.

[0xBitcoins]

Warren Buffet must be a legend of stock market. But we cannot take all these in all the markets. Because just being greedy for a no-potential altcoin may lead to disasters. If we have invested only with bitcoin then being greedy will not hurt anyone.
