My first Bitcoin

[Oneandpure]

Long time ago I was working so hard to buy Bitcoin but I couldn't because I had no job, but starting from this
month of January I have gotten a new job that pays me 5 figures a month and I just use $110 from my salary to buy Bitcoin,so as today is the last day of the month I just bought Bitcoin with part of my salary.
However, I bought it from a 3rd party through the help of a co-worker at my working place.

Well done, you did excellent way for investing money in bitcoin by purchasing around $100 every month from your salary, I think its worth for the future as your investment become saving assets than hold it in the bank without increasing yet better put or investing in bitcoin with potential increasing several percent at the future depend on bitcoin price raising up. Since your first time purchasing of bitcoin seems has lower price and around two months later bitcoin success break out new all time high price, seems happy if you still hold and sell it when new higher price coming because potential profitable earned more than 30% since at the early of this year storing bitcoin.

Hope you can update the investing of bitcoin progress in your wallet to make other more motivate for investing their money in bitcoin than hold it only in the Bank without any benefit yet.

The funny thing is when bitcoin price dropped below 60k$, I'm sure you or many others wouldn't buy bitcoin, but when the correction ended and bitcoin price recovered, people realized that bitcoin below 60k$ is a good time to buy. I believe that those who say the best time to buy bitcoin is over, they are the ones who will never buy bitcoin even if bitcoin falls back many times later.

As barisbilgili said above, bitcoin is a long-term and unpredictable investment so anytime is a good time to buy bitcoin. Don't hesitate and bargain with the market and when everything passes, we will say that the best time to buy bitcoin has passed. And if you are a short-term trader, a good time to buy will depend on your trading knowledge.

It’s always easier to follow a trend, but it’s a big problem to try to guess when the trend will change. We can start buying when we see that the trend has changed, but if we try to buy on a fall without signs of a reversal, then we can end up in a protracted correction, which will ultimately become a big mistake. But now it doesn’t look like we’re in for a prolonged correction, it’s more like a sideways movement and globally I’m waiting for further growth. The first bitcoins are always the most difficult, and the main difficulty is not to lose them.

Relying on indicators and charts to make the next prediction about bitcoin does not always give us accurate results because there are many unexpected factors such as Fud, fomo, manipulation...That is why many people always think that the DCA strategy is the best because the future is unpredictable. Like the recent correction where bitcoin fell to $59k, many traders speculate that bitcoin will soon drop to $52k and then $42k. But the end result is that bitcoin has recovered and is trading near 70k. So, I don't think we can easily recognize when bitcoin reverses and the uptrend begins.

But you are right, we are approaching bull season so a prolonged correction is unlikely, recent corrections have been temporary and whales are trying to take bitcoin from weak hands. The only thing we should do now is buy more if we have money left and not sell bitcoin for any reason because the bull season is very close.

Those who follow cryptocurrency and the market as a whole have already realized that historical indicators always confirm the corresponding forecasts, And therefore, many have become much more tolerant in their expectations of a bullish season and more willing to buy Bitcoin.  Even if you have to wait 4 years. In any case, once a year you can definitely make a profit

To be honest I’d be alright with waiting for 4 years before I take profit from bitcoin given that I have a stable job anyway. Bitcoin investment shouldn’t be treated as your daily income kind of job unless of course you are trading then you can expect at least a regular flow of money. I can wait for 4 years and at least I know that I can live comfortably after I take profit from my investments.

You are absolutely right. But in this case, everyone chooses their own behavior in the crypto market. For example, I prefer to have a small business for stability, as is generally accepted in society, but crypto is independence, while giving a good profit and is a guarantee of my quiet old age in prosperity.

First of all congrats on holding bitcoin. It is a very good decision that you are interested in investing in bitcoins besides your job, I applaud you for this decision. But in case of bitcoin investment you must have long term plan if you can hire with long term plan you will definitely get enough success for the purpose you have invested. Many times it is seen that while investing one time lost the door many big investors lose patience so patience is very important thing if we can invest patiently for long term surely we will get enough profit from AB recruitment which is more for us to invest  Will interest. If we can invest in Bitcoin at the right time and do it for the long term, surely we can change our fortunes with this Bitcoin investment.

So, is it safe for me to store my coin there or is there any other wallet I can use to store my coins? I know of electron but apart from the electron is there any other wallet which is safe?.
My profile shows that I am still new on Bitcointalk and I would say with my actions I am very interested in learning more about the accumulation process so I can gain more Bitcoin.

From the screenshot you have provided it looks like the exchange you are holding your bitcoins on is Binance.
While Binance is a reputed exchange it is still not the best option to hold your coins in there.
You can store your coins in a non-custodial wallet like Mycelium, Electrum etc...
Just keep reading various threads on this forum and start you can gain more knowledge on bitcoin.
You can read the articles from below website to know more.

Keep on doing that mate and you will be earning good profits out of your investment. It doesn't really matter if you are newbie or not as long as you are willing to learn that is what is important in here. Regarding wallets, I personally use Mycelium and BlueWallet especially when doing transactions in and out of the wallet but BlueWallet is my go to wallet right now and Mycelium is my back-up.

It is very commendable that you have invested some money from your salary in Bitcoin. But since you are investing your hard-earned money in Bitcoin, you must have a good understanding of its risks. It is not right to think that investing in Bitcoin will make you a quick profit.  If you have to hold your bitcoin for a long time then you can make a good amount of profit from it. So you can invest a part of your monthly salary in Bitcoin. Then it will go through the DCA technique. And if you hold these for a long time you will get good amount of profit. If your investment amount is huge then you can shift to hardware wallet. Otherwise you can continue using electrum wallet

I agree that bitcoin is definitely and should be used for the long-term.

I have seen some people discourage others from trading bitcoin. It is volatile yes but if you want to make profit, go and find much more volatile coins not bitcoin. Bitcoin should be bought and held for a long period of time. There’s still more growth to bitcoin so even if it is expensive now, do not double think about buying some.

You shouldn’t store your bitcoin on an exchange. Not just bitcoin. Don’t store any cryptocurrency there: the essence of exchanges is to exchange cryptocurrencies and not to store them. These centralized exchanges can have issues or down time or some sort of problem that hinders you from your money. It isn’t something that happens often but it is very possible. Doesn’t sound extremely safe.

[blckhawk]

I feel like people have already told you that hodling is the key to bitcoin investing and that it should be always for the long-term. Not bad for your first bitcoin purchase but I think that you should heed what others are saying about this particular case, don't put too much money in your investments because you might not like it when the price starts falling hard, some newbies will panic that their bitcoin investment is losing value and you might not be ready for it so make sure that you're equipped to handle that at the least.

There is nothing wrong with keeping our coin on exchanges especially if it is a little percent of our portfolio, maybe for the sake of trading it with other coin pairs it swapping it to altcoins to make more money. We need to know what we are doing so that we don't just keep thinking that putting a little percentage of our Bitcoin holdings on exchanges is a bad idea. Our we need to be prepared for the consequences that could come along which is one reason one need to be aware and understand what exchange is all about. It would be wise for us to keep our Bitcoin in a place where it will be safe because even putting it in a private wallet and the key get lose could lead to a big problem.

I think so because he really work hard to get the money from his salary to invest in BTC to achieve a big money from his hodling, which is the best way to grow financially in the industry, i believe he will like to buy more and hodl for long years before he will sell to experience second profit from BTC.

I believe, he is aware not to invest what you cannot afford to lose in BTC business because the business is not what you can predict accurately all the time, and if you put big money at once and something happen to the market to cause you loss, you will not hodl anybody responsible for your loss.

Having other sources of income will help you to endure through out the bear run, because the price of BTC will be dumping to make people BTC in their wallets to lose value at the moment, but if you have other sources of income, it will help you not to sell in the bear run than to wait for the bull run before you can sell.

I'm sure there are still some people who leave Bitcoin on exchanges. but maybe their needs are different. if the goal is long term, of course, it would not be a good idea to keep it on the exchange. and perhaps the problem of transaction costs which are sometimes very inflated could be the reason if you are a trader.

However, exchanges are not the best place to store Bitcoins. Even though saving in your wallet still has risks, we still have to choose the smallest risk. we never know what disaster will come to us.

Having other sources of income will help you to endure through out the bear run, because the price of BTC will be dumping to make people BTC in their wallets to lose value at the moment, but if you have other sources of income, it will help you not to sell in the bear run than to wait for the bull run before you can sell.

having other income would be good and it could protect our Bitcoin investment from being disturbed by the urgent needs that Bitcoin holders often experience.
but I think there is no need to be fanatical when our thinking is profit. investors understand Bitcoin market patterns. when we can profit when it pumps, why should we survive when it dumps? unless there is a planned time frame for it to be achieved. and the issue of pump or dump prices will not be considered at any given time.

There is something wrong with keeping your funds on an exchange. If maybe you want to trade it the next day, it may be an excuse, but anything can always happen at anytime. And if you put your funds in a wallet and lose the private key then that's totally on you. And there's a difference between that and an exchange being the issue. I am conscious of not keeping my money on exchanges. People who may do that are daily traders who scalp.

I completely agree with you. It is admirable that he is working hard to invest in Bitcoin understanding potential for long term financial growth. He is taking smart approach by hodling for years allowing his investment to compound. He is also aware of risks and is not investing more than he can afford to lose crucial mindset in unpredictable crypto market. By diversifying his income streams he will be able to weather any market downturns and avoid selling during bear runs waiting for the bull runs to maximize his profits. His disciplined approach will likely yield significant returns in the future.

It is not recommended to store assets on the Exchange if the investment goal is for the long term, especially if the asset value is large, however, if the goal is to make transactions easier and save on fees, you can save small amounts as needed. Exchange wallets are not very suitable for storing assets because there is always an unexpected risk, as long as the asset cannot be controlled by a private key, it means it is not your asset. Assets stored in wallets that can be controlled by private keys are safer than Exchange wallets. Every investor must be able to store private keys safely so that their assets remain safe, if the private key is lost, it will be the responsibility of each individual.

Indeed, there are many cases where exchanges are scams for some reason, and in the end our money is also lost. therefore the exchange is only for selling or buying assets, and the rest is stored in a personal wallet, and our security is completely responsible. That way I think it reduces the risk, because we won't know what will happen in the future, if we lose because of carelessness then it would be a shame. It's very good to save in the form of Bitcoin rather than in the bank, no matter how much for the future
