I think it is a little bit too early to hype the "Halving" .... because it is only scheduled to happen next year around April. Yes, the impact of the "Halving" can be seen about one or two months before the actual "Halving", because the markets reacts before the actual event... but it is still too far in the future. In any way... in my experience with the "Halving" ... I can honestly say that it has very little impact on the price. It will increase in the first two months before the event, when the media coverage highlight it.... and then it is gone. yes, surely you are very experienced about halving because you have joined this forum for a long time too so you must have experienced events before BTC halving and so on. it's true, actually, in this case, the movement of the btc price is very difficult to predict, although it can be said that soon there will be a btc halving and indeed the intention here is that it will take quite a long time, because now it can be said that it is still the middle of 2023, while the btc halving is in 2024. but in my opinion there is nothing wrong with what the op said because it is true that if for example we are interested in buying btc we can do it but in the case of buying btc of course we have to be vigilant because we will not know the price of btc, because the btc price could have dropped even more sharply to the bottom. but in this case it's up to the person who wants to buy because there are times when if our don't have the courage to buy, of course our can potentially miss the train.

I won't blame those that hesitate to buy Bitcoin, the fact is we can't all see things in the same ways, that's why we have the poor class, the mid-class aka average, and the rich class, most times, fear is what's holding many people back to achieving great things in their lives, fear is not always a good thing, some times you need to face it.
When it comes to investment, to lower your fear level you only need to throw in money you aren't afraid of losing, doing this will erase your fear completely, some don't have extra cash that they don't need though, that's why they are in fear and some people end up been forced to invest in Bitcoin by their friends and family.
I am in no way saying it's wrong, but it's not totally right too, because you don't know where your friend is getting the money from, you who introduce Bitcoin to friends should be the one telling them to invest money they don't need or little amount as if they aren't getting it back, this will give them peace in mind, thinking that even if the worst happens they will be fine, since it's just a 100$ they invest, or 200$ or more, depending on how much they can afford to lose.
No Risk No Reward.
I find it somewhat problematic to suggest that all fears regarding Bitcoin investment are unwarranted. Theres a certain degree of prudence in apprehension, and we mustnt overlook that Bitcoin, as revolutionary as it may be, is still a highly volatile asset. Theres a difference between fear and prudent caution - one paralyzes, the other informs decisions. To say "invest only what you're willing to lose" is an oversimplified sentiment. A smarter approach is to consider risk tolerance and financial capacity, to educate oneself thoroughly about the asset in question and make an informed decision. Moreover, classifying people into poor, mid-class, and rich based on their investment decisions is a somewhat reductionist viewpoint. Economic standing and financial literacy arent always correlated. I've seen wealthy individuals make poor decisions and vice versa. However, I do agree with you on one point - No risk, no reward. But lets not forget that unnecessary risks are as dangerous as fear itself.

Procrastination is not the only reason why some of us are not buying BTC. Some persons actually want to buy but don't currently have the funds to do so.
True that but if a person has a reason to invest in Bitcoin, he will always do his best to invest and can use the method of saving just to fulfill the want to invest in Bitcoin. I would also follow the advice of taking advantage of the opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a discount when FUD is everywhere instead of panicking and eventually selling the BTC holdings. Well, you may be right, but everyone has their priority. Someone who can barely feed himself will not be thinking about investment, his primary need is food. So, you assertion about investing with savings is only true if you have enough to spare after meeting your primary needs.

You only sell when you don't understand the true benefit of actually holding your BTC, during the bear season all big time and both first time investors should be happy because it's actually a prime time to buy as much BTC as you can to hold and wait for the bull market to come. I bought some BTC during the bear market and have been holding it for some time now and I don't intend on selling even if the market dips and thats because I understand that the bitcoin market is volatile.

And you don't need to force yourself to invest, if you think you're not capable enough to invest or put your assets at stake then don't risk it. I mean you could start by investing at yourself first, gain knowledge and study the techniques then you could apply those with starting in a small amount so if the time comes that you already have the money to invest, then you are already ready. For sure those who have a lot of needs in life thinking about investment, but due to financial need they are more focus on finding a source of money than studying the investment. Also crypto needed to be connected in gadgets since it's digital plus the internet so there's a lot of thing you need to consider before investing.

I've had conversations with several individuals and I found out that most them are fully aware of the benefits of cryptocurrency at large but are still having doubts or would I rather say the fear of the unknown due to the unstable price of bitcoin
Those who still feel that only online businesses and cryptocurrency investments are fraught with risk should wake up from their slumbers. Risk is an every day thing and it cuts across all strata. Whether online or offline with physical addresses, risk is there. I've seen businesses get knocked down in demolition for contravening government policies or roadmap and millions of hard earned cash go down the drain. Yet, those aren't online businesses. Those who've made up their minds to pursue online investments shouldn't allow themselves be discouraged by the ignorance of others. As for procrastination, what's happening now may seem a child's play to those who haven't experienced halving before. They rather get on the bus now or wait and watch price movement once rally commences. It's always a joy to watch how price rallies upward during such time.

Well, you may be right, but everyone has their priority. Someone who can barely feed himself will not be thinking about investment, his primary need is food. So, you assertion about investing with savings is only true if you have enough to spare after meeting your primary needs.
I agree with you and I think i should have included that in my post for forum members to be guided because someone who's not financially stable or occupied with lots of bills with a spare cash to spare shouldn't be thinking of buying the and holding for the next bull run and it would only be considered procrastination when their able to meet up their needs effortlessly with lots of cash to spare and refused to take the opportunity of investing and yielding more in the next halving which is fast approaching, alot of person are willing to seize this opportunity to participate in the next massive bull run coming (2024) but are facing challenges which is very understandable, but there are also people who are privileged but still have a doubt or fear of investing currently when the price is still okay to investing on, well everyone has a right to choice and is responsible for their choices whether good or bad, in as much as cryptocurrency doesn't discriminates not everyone would be opportuned to benefit from it, many are called but few are chosen. For sure there are members responding in this thread in regards to a variety of reasons why they might not invest into bitcoin, or making comments about how sure that they believe the BTC price is going to have significant upwards pressures upon it from the halvening that will have good chances of having the BTC price go up significantly within a period of time after the halvening such as up to around a year afterwards. We likely realize that there are plenty of people who are not sufficiently convinced that the risk to their losing their money is worth the possible upside potential, so if they are not taking actual actions in regards to investing into bitcoin, then they are not procrastinating, even though at a later date they might end up changing their mind merely based on witnessing BTC prices going up rather than having had gotten any kind of greater education of bitcoin as investible asset. There are a lot of ways that normies procrastinate, including failing/refusing to research into some ideas that they have heard about and maybe they know that they should do a bit of research.. but they procrastinate getting started in to their research, and they also may procrastinate about getting their finances in sufficient order in order that they know about their budget (such as how much free cash that they might have or be able to have, in order to be able to invest into something new like bitcoin). Some people have such lack of clarity about their own finances that they cannot even determine if they might be able to invest $10 per week into bitcoin, let alone a more aggressive investment of $100 per week, and surely they cannot even attempt to be more aggressive with their investment into bitcoin or into anything else, unless they figure out enough of their specifics in order to know how much spare money that they have on a weekly or monthly basis.... so some of these people fail/refuse to invest into anything (maybe they have bought residential property or they have a 401k plan?) because they are not sufficiently in touch with their own cashflow or even maybe having enough of a cash reserve that does not continue to end up being depleted into because they may well be spending more than their income allows. so there are many (if not too many) people who might live on the edge due to their own sloppiness rather the fact that they don't have enough income. Of course, as some members mentioned, there are likely some people who do not have enough cashflow, and it is not even because they are not trying to increase their cashflow, but they are having difficulties in terms of increasing their cashflow in order that they might be able to invest into bitcoin (or any other investment). Even once any of us might have had gotten our shit together sufficiently enough that we are ready, willing and able to invest into something like bitcoin, we still might thereafter have to figure out how to source our bitcoin - such as getting them on some kind of an exchange, in the event that we are able to set something like that up in our jurisdiction or if we are able to figure out reputable other sources to purchase our bitcoin.... sometimes even if someone we know might have given us a recommendation, we might either feel uncomfortable with the recommendation or feel that we need to research more into that specific recommendation as compared with other options regarding ways that we might purchase BTC. I do like the topic of this thread because it does potentially touch upon a lot of issues that people have, including some of their reservations and reluctancies that come up from time to time, and sometimes their behavior might be described as procrastination.. especially if they are putting off something that they already realize that they should do.. but sometimes they might not be in a position to do the thing that some of us bitcoin HODLers might believe that they need to do, because first they would likely have to do some other things (whether research or getting their finances in order or other things) in order to actually set themselves up into a position that they would actually be able to act upon something like positive beliefs about bitcoin that they might have.... but they are not quite to the place that they are actually ready, willing and able to act. and they sometimes might not even realize why they are not able to act. Sometimes I tell people to just get the fuck started. Some people have some obstacles in their head that if they are going to invest into something that they need to invest a decent amount, otherwise it is not going to matter... which sure there is some correctness in that, but if they keep considering that they have to come up with $1k or $2k or some higher amount to get started, then they will never start because they are not going to be able to do enough homework in order to get a place to get started, so getting off zero likely has more likelihood of happening if the newbie nocoiner (or low coiner) just starts out really small (such as $10 per week), and then even if they do not get to a more preferable amount (such as $100 per week), at least their having had started to invest $10 per week will get them motivated to research into the bitcoin matter or to pay more attention to bitcoin-related matters - and surely the vast majority of people are not even ready to take some action.. but starting out small should make it a lot easier for people, even though many of us who are already in bitcoin realize that we are still in very early days to bitcoin, and it is likely going to take a pretty long time for people to come into bitcoin and the longer they wait, the more likely that they are just going to be paying way higher prices than the current prices, even if they are able to buy on dips later down the road.

1) Self-Custody is a right. There is no such thing as "non-custodial" or "un-hosted." 2) ESG, KYC & AML are attack-vectors on Bitcoin to be avoided or minimized. 3) How much alt (shit)coin diversification is necessary? if you are into Bitcoin, then 0%......if you cannot control your gambling, then perhaps limit your alt(shit)coin exposure to less than 10% of your bitcoin size...Put BTC here: bc1q49wt0ddnj07wzzp6z7affw9ven7fztyhevqu9k

It's like buying on malls rather than on an online shop. There's an assurance they can get from the money they get. We are on the time that investments, businesses and most of the financial things can be done online though there are still people who doubt it even though there are many positive feedbacks just like investing on bitcoin. Sooner or later people who planned on investing on bitcoin but didn't do it because of uncertainty or the risk that they are afraid of will make them regret it when the bull market comes.

Procrastination which is said to be the act of delaying something important despite knowing the consequences of doing so, is one of the reasons why many people miss out on big opportunities.
Procrastination can be because of your hesitation, uncertainty or it can be your lack of investment budget. If you don't have investment budget, you only can work and in the meantime, have to procrastinate your investment. Don't be hurry and borrow money to invest because you don't want to procrastinate. If you have investment budget but hesitate to do it several months before a halving, you must look at history of bitcoin and its price after past halvings. I definitely agree with your statement. Even if the halving is slowly coming, this should not be a reason to disregard the basic rules of investment. If you do not have sufficient resources in order to purchase BTCs as of the moment, never take out a loan to proceed your investment. A risk in itself should not create further risks. In order to maximize this event, it is recommended that a person should allocate and budget their resources for investments entirely. Like what OP mentioned, avoid procrastinating and investing at the last hour- this is something that should be well-prepared and saved.

I do not think that there is anyone who would procrastinate when it comes to buying bitcoin in preparation for the next halving. If wishes were horses but not everyone has the means to buy bitcoin as they would want to. A lot of people may have a major problem which is financial constraint to be able to invest buy bitcoin now in hope for the halving. Basically, what I would advice folks is that they should prioritize buying bitcoin now. The price may or may not go up after the next halving we cannot tell. We are only relying on past data to predict the future and as you have rightly said, when there is shortage of supply and high demand, the price would go up.
We have some individuals that'll be procrastinating and many of them are on the forum, how you'll know they have procrastinated is when Bitcoin rises but they'll be all negative in their replies wishing for Bitcoin to correct again so they can buy. Some individual still think we haven't gotten to the bottom of the bear maket as some are calling for Bitcoin to fall to below $20k again and probably fall lower. I think this set of individual needs to get their heads together or they'll be missing out on an opportunity to get bitcoin at a very low prices. Bitcoin is climbing up and it has been holding a strong support above $30k, soon the price might start increasing to $31k and above. One thing is certain, those who procrastinate from buying and hodling bitcoin might have their own, individual reasons. It could be lack of finances or budget, or it could be because of doubt and fears that bitcoin will end up as a big scam just like most of the investments online. Well, if they will stick to these, they will continue to miss bitcoin opportunities and may end up regretting seeing those who take the risk have finally paid off and become successful. But those who remain fearful and doubtful will never see progress in their own lives.

Yes what you said is correct and also if someone is Procrastination himself to buy bitcoin in the dip, there are some other factors that the person is considering or facing. Family load, financial issue, and also the basic knowledge of the person about bitcoin. Because if one does not have the basic knowledge on bitcoin, he has to learn to know more before buying. So with that, he will be Procrastinating to buy bitcoin at all the times. There are some times that the person might have money but family bills would consumed them all so he would postpone it to the next time that he will have money and that is how Procrastination starts.

There are some people who likes to see physical assets rather than virtual assets as if they can see a real value on their investment and they receive some assurance on where there money gets. It's like buying on malls rather than on an online shop. I've such people around me. The annoying part for me with them is that it's not even as if they've tried this stuff in practical reality before condemning it. There's this rave right now in my country with online banks springing up without any physical addresses. Many of my compatriots aren't embracing that, thinking anything online can shutdown any day without any trace. That can be true but then these online banks have been really tremendous with their quick services, better than the physical banks we've. I patronize one of the banks, though not throwing in my all in that account. I rather test something new and innovative than not try it at all and then condemn it ignorantly. This is what many do online, condemning what they barely have an idea of.

Procrastination is not the only reason why some of us are not buying BTC. Some persons actually want to buy but don't currently have the funds to do so.
You mean it? Well, some people can agree with you, but I don't, and you know why? because you yourself spend over $15 or $20 in a week (even if not in 7 days, before every 9th day is over, you can spend more than $20). Yeah, I think so. Some people are spending even $40, $80, or $100 or $200 in a week, but they have not invested in Bitcoin, not because they don't like it but because of procrastination. They will say to themselves, "I will invest next week," and if that next week comes, then they will give another excuse: "Oh, this money is not enough; I will invest if I receive my salary by ending of the month." That is how it continues with a lot of people until they end up not Investing. Bitcoin is the simplest investment, with a DCA strategy. Even if you don't have enough money to save, you can decide to save $2.5 for every $20 you spend In a week. $2.5 X 4 weeks = $10. If you form the habit of investing $10 every month X 12 months in a year, that's $120. Although it's small, but it's good to always start somewhere rather than procrastinate every time, while you are spending money every day to buy some other stuffs. Imagine someone who spends $100 every week and saves at least $20 each week to invest in Bitcoin; that's an investment of $80 into Bitcoin every month. It wouldn't be a bad investment. It's better than not Investing at all. Although no one is to be compelled to invest in Bitcoin, but I'm speaking of those who have full interest in Bitcoin but are making excuses (procrastinating). Even on some platforms, you can buy as little as $5 worth of Bitcoin. You don't really need $100, $500 or $1000 before you can invest into Bitcoin. Cheers 🥂, Dr.Bitcoin_Strange 👺👺

For sure there are members responding in this thread in regards to a variety of reasons why they might not invest into bitcoin, or making comments about how sure that they believe the BTC price is going to have significant upwards pressures upon it from the halvening that will have good chances of having the BTC price go up significantly within a period of time after the halvening such as up to around a year afterwards.
Do you think more people use the word 'halving' than 'halvening'? I know about halvening but I think if nowadays, halving is more popularly used, we should use that term rather than 'halvening'. Two cents. Interesting when I see Coinbase used both terms in their blog article. Coinbase articleHalving (Coinmarketcap Glossary)Bitcoin Halving (Investopedia)Bitcoin Glossary of Terms (Bitcoinmagazine)What is the halveningThe first user used 'halvening' term in Bitcointalk is On the other hand, lower prices are increasing the yield: at current price YABMC is paying >3% weekly. At that rate, getting back the whole capital invested as dividends in a few months, before the halvening, while ASICS are still a pie in the sky, does not seems so unlikely to me.
The term 'halving' is used about one year earlier, in 2011. you send N coins to me I send N/2 back to you.
simple as that. no catches, no strings attached. you know upfront how much you'll loose and I promise to keep having a good life.
if it goes well, I will change the ration keep/return from 1:1 maybe up to 5:95 but you'll always loose your bitcoins in this schema. at least I'm honest and do not promise doubling or so.
JayJuanGee, please join What term to use? Halving or Halvening?

Procrastination which is said to be the act of delaying something important despite knowing the consequences of doing so, is one of the reasons why many people miss out on big opportunities.
Procrastination can be because of your hesitation, uncertainty or it can be your lack of investment budget. If you don't have investment budget, you only can work and in the meantime, have to procrastinate your investment. Don't be hurry and borrow money to invest because you don't want to procrastinate. If you have investment budget but hesitate to do it several months before a halving, you must look at history of bitcoin and its price after past halvings. I definitely agree with your statement. Even if the halving is slowly coming, this should not be a reason to disregard the basic rules of investment. If you do not have sufficient resources in order to purchase BTCs as of the moment, never take out a loan to proceed your investment. A risk in itself should not create further risks. In order to maximize this event, it is recommended that a person should allocate and budget their resources for investments entirely. Like what OP mentioned, avoid procrastinating and investing at the last hour- this is something that should be well-prepared and saved. Actually, we've had a few members here, mostly newbies, who claimed to have borrowed money or taken a loan in order to purchase Bitcoin. It's still unclear if their story is valid or if it was an attempt to seek attention, but despite what it truly was, I'm positive that there are members who actually went ahead and invested with borrowed money. I'm curious to know how it turned out for those people. While I understand and admire their enthusiasm about Bitcoin investing, I find the whole argument extremely risky and reckless. There's a great chance these people lost their money. I fully get that the halving is due to happen and people are both frustrated and enthusiastic about it, but that's no excuse to disregard basic common knowledge; this shouldn't even be investment advice that you must not spend money that you don't have and can't afford to lose.

Well, you may be right, but everyone has their priority. Someone who can barely feed himself will not be thinking about investment, his primary need is food. So, you assertion about investing with savings is only true if you have enough to spare after meeting your primary needs.
I agree with you and I think i should have included that in my post for forum members to be guided because someone who's not financially stable or occupied with lots of bills with a spare cash to spare shouldn't be thinking of buying the and holding for the next bull run and it would only be considered procrastination when their able to meet up their needs effortlessly with lots of cash to spare and refused to take the opportunity of investing and yielding more in the next halving which is fast approaching, alot of person are willing to seize this opportunity to participate in the next massive bull run coming (2024) but are facing challenges which is very understandable, but there are also people who are privileged but still have a doubt or fear of investing currently when the price is still okay to investing on, well everyone has a right to choice and is responsible for their choices whether good or bad, in as much as cryptocurrency doesn't discriminates not everyone would be opportuned to benefit from it, many are called but few are chosen. Yea. For those that have the means of investing in BTC are either afraid or like you said procrastinating. There are enormous opportunities in holding BTC and every one on this forum who is knowledgeable about BTC knows this and should take advantage of it.

Procrastination is not the only reason why some of us are not buying BTC. Some persons actually want to buy but don't currently have the funds to do so.
True that but if a person has a reason to invest in Bitcoin, he will always do his best to invest and can use the method of saving just to fulfill the want to invest in Bitcoin. I would also follow the advice of taking advantage of the opportunity to buy Bitcoin at a discount when FUD is everywhere instead of panicking and eventually selling the BTC holdings. Well, you may be right, but everyone has their priority. Someone who can barely feed himself will not be thinking about investment, his primary need is food. So, you assertion about investing with savings is only true if you have enough to spare after meeting your primary needs. And you don't need to force yourself to invest, if you think you're not capable enough to invest or put your assets at stake then don't risk it. I mean you could start by investing at yourself first, gain knowledge and study the techniques then you could apply those with starting in a small amount so if the time comes that you already have the money to invest, then you are already ready. For sure those who have a lot of needs in life thinking about investment, but due to financial need they are more focus on finding a source of money than studying the investment. Also crypto needed to be connected in gadgets since it's digital plus the internet so there's a lot of thing you need to consider before investing. Yea, I was only responding to the OP who said that procrastination is the reason why some people are not taking advantage of the next Bitcoin halving to buy now. And true, the first investment should be on yourself, gain enough knowledge so you can make informed decisions.

You can share your ideas and opinions if you know more about the bitcoin halving and for the procrastinators, it's better late than never.
If someone still has to buy bitcoin for me, the best way, would be to invest and buy the same amount every single month, in this way you can mediate the price so it doesn't really matter whether the price goes up or down. There is a fair chance that we may see a new ATH 6-12 months after the halving, there still is plenty of time to start accumulating, guys, you're still in time!
