It takes discipline to be a long term investor, it's not everybody that can be diligent enough to be taking money off there discretionary funds to be buying Bitcoin for many years. There will always be distractions along the way like when price hits a new ATH. They'll be tempted to sell forgetting that Bitcoin has the potentials to always reach new ATH.
your are very correct, because it's not an easy thing to be a long term bitcoin investor, it takes discipline, patent and commitment to be a long term bitcoin investor. And just as you said above it's not everybody that will be willing and disciplined enough to be investing in bitcoin consistently with their discretionary income for 4 to 10 years or more without being tempted to sell off their bitcoin investment in other to take profits. But my advise is no matter the temptation that will come our ways during the long run of our bitcoin holding, we should always try as much as possible to tell ourselves that bitcoin is a coin full of potentials that the longer we hold the more profitable we become on the long run.

You will always find people who are timing the market,waiting patiently for the price of Bitcoin to go up for them to sell for quick profits. I believe the sole reason people invest in bitcoin is to make realistic profits from holding bitcoin as a store of value but selling too early isn't the right way to get some huge profits out of the system. bitcoin was built in a way that work best only by investing for the long term,that's why traders that tries to outsmart the market for quick profits often run in losses because they are gambling instead of investing for the long term.

If you know what you are aiming for, a target you set from the beginning or early enough, you will not even be bothered by price reaching a new all time high. The problem most people have is looking at the dollar value of their Bitcoin every now and them instead of setting their target on the quantity of Bitcoin they want to accumulate. If you set a target of having 2 Bitcoin probably before you reach 40 years, why will you be bothered about selling when the price rises? The price will never matter to you because you have a target of 2BTC in the next 10 to 20 years assuming you are 30yr or 20yr old now respectively. I thought about this and I realized that setting my target on Bitcoin and not the price will help shield me from the temptation of selling too quick when I see high prices. I think you should consider that and see how everything will become easy for me.

The price of Bitcoin had gone up and I've been hearing people talking about how to sell their Bitcoin as soon as possible if the price of Bitcoin exceed $125k. This is ridiculous on how many are looking for quick profits immediately the price of Bitcoin goes up. We shouldn't be taken away by the force of investing in Bitcoin for the sole reason of cashing out as quick as possible.
Bitcoin is not like the shitcoins we see in the market that are where the teams will be looking for investors they will scam. We should be smart enough that Bitcoin is different and investors shouldn't sell immediately the price went up. That shitty practice can be done with Shitcoins because of the fear of the price crashing since the owners will want to make money from investors by selling half of their holdings making the shittycoins market to depreciate and the shitty investors losing their shitty investment.
Bitcoin is different and we should see it as a real investment not something to make quick profits from when price shoot up. I know some investors are opportunists looking for anything that will give them quick rewards. Bitcoin should be seen as a long term investment only.
Anyone who has been engaging in this thread for quite a long time now, wouldn't be stupid enough to sell off their Bitcoins. And even if they choose to sell some they shouldn't sell all of their Bitcoins because it is absolutely wrong to do so. What you should so understand is that some folks talking about taking profit are old investors. They must have been holding for years now which is why they decide to take some profits. I think they are smart enough not to completely go out of the market by selling all they've got. I think most people who have been accumulating for a long time and have gotten to over accumulation stages, would really want to appreciate their profit values, but that doesn’t mean they should sell all their bitcoin assets, because bitcoin should be treated as an important asset. Well as for newbies they have no business with over accumulation, for someone that is still on accumulation stage shouldn’t even be thinking about profit, the most important priority should be by buying and accumulating bitcoin for a very long term, as people who also want to achieve something big and get to over accumulation stages.

Firstly an investor who is able to accumulate his money with the hope that the DIP comes and he buys a lot of Bitcoin at lesser price has also displayed patience which is also one of the traits of a good investor and also happens to fall under some of the fundamental habits for creating wealth.Instead of spreading funds in bits you can save up and utilize it to its maximum during the DIP. It is capital efficient
This strategy is mostly use in business and not in bitcoin investment, though some Investors out there can decide to make use of this method of accumulating money and be waiting for dip to come so that they can buy in lesser price. But I would prefer spreading it in a bits because waiting to accumulate enough money before buying has Alot of disadvantages, moreover they're not even sure when the dip is going to happen. I wonder how long they will keep waiting for the dip and who knows if inflation can come before then. So I would prefer spreading it in bits instead of going with the method of accumulating money and start waiting for the dip that I don't know when is going to happen. There's nothing wrong with either method investors naturally have their own investment styles. Essentially, each investor wants to get the best price. There is nothing wrong with combining these two methods, it can be an added value when that significant dip comes. I also sometimes use this method if the market is experiencing a fairly rapid increase, I also wait for a moment. The market will definitely have a reversal or a new decline, that's where I will buy it, in this case patience is the most important thing in accumulating our investment assets.

That’s the classic crypto dilemma — nobody can time the market perfectly. Prices move fast, and it’s easy to feel like you bought too high or sold too early. The key is having a plan: if you believe in a coin long-term , dips are buy opportunities; if you’re just looking for short-term flips, you need strict targets and stop-losses.
Did you just say a coin, which means that any coin. Nah... Shitcoins are not the same as bitcoin and will never have the uniqueness and potential of bitcoin. This is the main reason why you should only think bitcoin and nothing more in the cryptospace because only bitcoin is worth to invest into and hodli for a long-term because it's a store of value overtime and a hedge to inflation. Shitcoins are the opposite of bitcoin as they will bring pains, frustration and regrets if you buy them because they're for gambling and not an investment. As for “buy or sell right now,” it really depends on your risk tolerance and horizon — the market is very volatile, so for most people, gradual buying (dollar-cost averaging) is safer than trying to guess the exact moment.
👉 Do you see yourself as more of a long-term holder or a short-term trader?
Traders are the same with shitcoiners because they will become losers in the long run for trying to play smart with the market wave. A new investor should only choose a long-term investment plan and stay focus on building his bitcoin portfolio for 4-10 years and till he reaches his bitcoin target through his ongoing weekly DCA overtime. If you sell because of little profit, you will end up as a low coiner in future when bitcoin price will be very expensive and you will regret gambling your bitcoin through trading. Trading and buying shitcoin is the wrong path for anyone in the cryptospace. So choose your path wisely. Some persons are impatient and they always prefer the short route to grow their investment that's why they choose to gamble with their Bitcoin because I feel anyone that trades his coin is practically gambling with his portfolio and might possibly end up at the losing end. It's always better to take the motive to start and choose a long term investment plan with your Bitcoin investments since their is high certainty that your growth will be massive and guaranteed for a time frame of about 5years plus. True, most people who get impatient are really just gambling with their portfolio. Trading Bitcoin without proper skill or risk management is more or less betting against the market, and like you said, a lot of them end up frustrated because they were chasing quick profits. The truth is, Bitcoin was never designed for a get rich tomorrow mentality, it was built as a long term store of value. If you hold it with patience, history already shows the growth over 5+ years has always been worth it. Especially for the average person without discipline, the safest and smartest route is exactly what you highlighted long term holding. That way, you are not stressing over daily charts, you are just focused on stacking and letting time do the heavy lifting. Patience is really the key here, and that is what separates investors who make it from those who blow up their portfolio chasing shortcuts. Sometimes i do even wonder that why will someone with a sane mind trade bitcoin at this point when its value has really skyrocketed. If it was that time when the price of bitcoin was less than a $ i would have said that it is tradable but look at where we are now it has already gotten an ATH of about $124,000 and some folks still think of trading? Maybe such people hate to become rich. For an investor who has a long term investment plan, the target should be from 4-10 years and even above, that is what is considered a long term investment. Some people even invest for just one year and sell their bitcoins but will still be feeling like it was a long term investment. The problem with most investors now is that they are impatient, they just want to invest in something and start seeing the profits immediately but they forget to understand it's only those get rich quick scheme that promises high returns in a short time which most times becomes a scam. Holding bitcoin requires a lot of discipline not to sell till the appropriate time I often think the same way, because at this stage trading Bitcoin feels more like chasing short term noise than building wealth. If the price has already hit an ATH, then trying to flip in and out only increases the risk of losing what you’ve worked for. Since the real gains come from patience, the long term horizon of four to five years makes much more sense. Probably the biggest mistake most of us make is confusing a one year hold with a long term investment, when in reality that’s just a short stop. It is because Bitcoin was never built for instant profits, it’s a game of discipline and conviction, and only those who can resist the urge to cash out too soon will see the true rewards.

Buying during a market rally is more risky for your capital. Spreading your purchases weekly is the best way for investors. Long term Bitcoin is the best way compared to trading. To get the best price, you need to buy for the long term. Waiting for a reversal for buying is not an example of a good investor. You should buy regardless of the price. Look at today's Bitcoin market, suddenly ATH broke and the next moment the price is falling again. To get the best profit, investors need to collect Bitcoin for the long term. The greed for small profits can destroy the possibility of large profits.

Yeah bro, a lot of people keep delaying because they are always waiting for that so called perfect dip, but truth is, Bitcoin doesn’t move according to anyone timing. If you keep waiting, you will most likely end up with nothing, because by the time you think the price will drop, it might actually pump even higher. That is where DCA really makes sense, it takes away the pressure of trying to predict every move, and it helps you keep stacking bit by bit without stressing about timing. it’s not about buying at the absolute lowest price, it is about actually being in the market and holding long enough to enjoy the bigger growth..
Facts, bro. Too many people miss out because they want to catch that perfect dip, but in reality nobody can time Bitcoin perfectly. The best move is consistency, DCA keeps you in the game without stress, and over time those little stacks build into something big. At the end of the day, it’s not about being the smartest trader, it’s about having the discipline to stay in and let Bitcoin do its thing. Yea, Does anything even exist called ''Perfect Dip''? No, I don't think so. If they are waiting for a dip of a perfect dip, they can wait till ages, while we keep accumulating with our discretionary income, and as years go bye, our little holdings turns into something tangible. Why even wait for a dip as an investor while you have an easy going strategy(DCA) that allows you accumulate Bitcoin in little fragments, making you relaxed, move at your own pace and remain in charge of your investment journey? Why wait for a perfect Dip(which I think does not exist) while you can get started with your discretionary income and become a gradual investor? Or they plan of starting big? No because you don't have much experience about the market and it's better you just start with the DCA and with time, you can grow and /or do the Dip if you have extra cash saved up for it along the years of your accumulation. Buying the dip is not bad, but waiting for it(Dip) to come before you start your Bitcoin investment journey is the wrong approach here and we advise that you can start small with the DCA and accumulate Bitcoin

I don't think that waiting is a good strategy that can help you increase your bitcoin portfolio. There's nothing like patience in buying bitcoin when you have your discretionary income to buy right away. If you keep waiting for a dip and the price continues to pump, you will keep your bitcoin portfolio stagnant which is a poor choice that you made. A new investor or some in his early stage of bitcoin accumulation shouldn't wait for dip the before buying rather, he should keeo his bitcoin purchase ongoing with DCA and increase his bitcoin size overtime because that's the main reason why we are investing in bitcoin and not to be waiting for the dip that you don't knlw if it willl come or not. What if the dip didn't come, you will miss out the good opportunity in the Market that uou should have used to increase your bitcoin stash. The reason why waiting for dip the is not advisable is because you will end up having little bitcoin in future and it's the size of your bitcoin portfolio that will determine your profit in future when bitcoin price is very expensive. Time waits for no one likewise, bitcoin fast.

they can also decide depending on the cash they have or an extra money which comes in to use it to lump sum. More so, if an investor accumulates a reasonable large portion of bitcoin and hold over time then there’s nothing wrong if he chooses to buy the dip, and that’s why dip buying is not for newbie investors because there’s every tendency that they will wait until its dip before they can accumulate bitcoin, which of course is a very wrong investment approach for them.
You're just mixing everything up, the fact is a low coiner or a no coiner is not supposed to wait for dip to occur before attempting to buy, as a newbie is advised to stick to the DCA. while going with this method there's every tendency that you will meet a good buying opportunity then you can use that opportunity to front load your investment instead of wasting the whole time, i agree with you when you said that there's nothing wrong if a guy chooses to buy the dip, but this approach is supposed to be applied when they must have reach the status of overaccumulation and not when they're still struggling to reach thier investment goal because going with this approach when you have not stack enough bitcoin in your portfolio is like a waste of time. The main thing in investing in Bitcoin is not waiting for a dip but preparation. Waiting for a dip means that you are still unprepared. If you can understand how much money you can save by calculating your income and expenses. If you have an emergency fund of three to six months, then you are ready. In that case, if you wait for a dip, you will be behind others. Later, you will only regret seeing others. So, do not waste time and keep investing little by little in the DCA method. You may not see any change for the first one to two months, but you will see a great change in your life within four to ten months. And after going through a few cycles in this way, you will enjoy a good portfolio.

Waiting for the market reversal or decline makes you look the same as a trader because an Investor doesn't wait for the price of Bitcoin to decline before they buy or accumulate instead they accumulate at any given price via the dollar cost averaging ( DCA) method and that is the best approach or way to go about Bitcoin investment because this method will make you worry less about the price of Bitcoin. So waiting for a decline before you buy is a trader mindset and I will advise you start accumulating using the DCA and also be preparing for the decline because it will help you grow faster.

Firstly an investor who is able to accumulate his money with the hope that the DIP comes and he buys a lot of Bitcoin at lesser price has also displayed patience which is also one of the traits of a good investor
The person has not displayed any patience at that time because during those period he has no bitcoin in his portfolio and such a person is regarded as a no coiner during that period. His patience has not really been put to test, his patience will only be tested when he have bitcoin in his portfolio. We can interpret that move as someone who's being scared of investing in bitcoin because such person can't withstand bitcoin volatility. That's not the kind of patience bitcoin investors are known for. Have bitcoin in your portfolio then we will know if you have patience or not. Instead of spreading funds in bits you can save up and utilize it to its maximum during the DIP. It is capital efficient If not in this thread, it should be in buy the dip and hodl thread that I read a post, in that post a user in the forum said he invested a lump sum when he started his investment in November 2024. At that time bitcoin was at a price he considered as dip. Few months down the line he made the post and said if it was now that he has known about dca method (spreading funds bit by bit) that he would have utilized it rather than buying with that lump sum at once. So comparing his experience and this your assumption who should we go with? Of course I will go with the person that has gotten the first hand experience, someone who has tested what you are fantasizing on and came out to say look, it's more beneficial to buy bitcoin bit by bit than buying with a lump sum at once irrespective of the price you are buying it. (Dip or no Dip) Historically, those who have been able to wait and buy more bitcoin during the DIP have always outperformed those who use DCA method(I am still a fan of DCA, Please don't forget that!!).
It would have been nice if you are dropping some graphs and links which you have compiled that clearly shows historical datas and dates to back up your claims. You need to drop evidences to aid your arguments. But since you haven't displayed any of such datas I will say you are just exaggerating. You can't just come here and say " Historically, those who have been able to wait and buy more bitcoin during the DIP have always outperformed those who use DCA method" and you expect me or others to believe you. Show us facts and historical datas let it make sense to your audience. Till you provide those things I will say you are exaggerating and being overly excited about this.

Please be careful when writing posts, because this kind of mistake can confuse newbies, one cycle of Bitcoin = 4 years, and you must decide to hold Bitcoin for at least 4 years/ 1 cycle, and you can hold it for 2 to 3 cycles according to your ability. And besides, if you are talking about 4 to 10 months, then I do not agree with you in any way, because this is a short-term trading attitude, it is very unlikely that we will see significant success in our investment in 4 to 10 months, we should definitely think of it as significant success after at least 4 years. Bitcoin investment is a long-term investment and it should only be bought continuously. But if you only wait for DIP to buy, it will only miss the opportunity, and you will only fall behind from the investment, because If you keep waiting for the right moment to invest, then you will also lose the opportunity that already in your hands. Therefore, the most correct decision in the case of Bitcoin investment is to invest through DCA, keep buying regularly from discretionary income, so that your Bitcoin will continue to accumulate at an average price, it is necessary to keep an emergency fund to keep the investment safe in the long term. Don't have a short-term mindset here, invest in Bitcoin for the long term, then you will have the best chance of success.

If you have an emergency fund of three to six months, then you are ready.
In Bitcoin investment, it is not mandatory to keep 3-6 months salary in emergency fund, but yes, it is useful for your emergency situations, like an umbrella on a rainy day. If a person has a discretionary income, then he is ready to invest. I think a person can focus on building an emergency fund while managing investments through DCA strategy. The first step in investing is to start. And invest wisely. If a person does not have a discretionary income, he can still invest. And he can do it without an emergency fund. However, without an emergency fund, if any danger suddenly comes, he may make a wrong decision like selling the investment, so having an emergency fund is necessary. Why invest from discretionary income? Invest from discretionary income to move forward in long-term investment. And discretionary income is something that you are not afraid of losing. However, to make a disciplined investment, you must do it from discretionary income, then it will be easy to grow your portfolio.

If you have an emergency fund of three to six months, then you are ready.
In Bitcoin investment, it is not mandatory to keep 3-6 months salary in emergency fund, but yes, it is useful for your emergency situations, like an umbrella on a rainy day. If a person has a discretionary income, then he is ready to invest. No, of course you should have an emergency fund that lasts for 3 to 6 months, it is mandatory and must be mandatory, because unexpected situations naturally come in people's daily lives, unexpected situations can come at any moment, so we must prepare for this. We need to hold Bitcoin holdings for the long term and for this we need to prepare to handle any unexpected situation, and for this, funds are mandatory. You should not waste time preparing an emergency fund before investing, because it will delay you from starting investing, first start investing and then prepare an emergency fund as soon as possible according to your ability, and of course prepare an amount of funds that will support you for three to six months. I think that an emergency fund should not be considered an option, but a mandatory basis, no matter how stable a person's income is, unexpected events come suddenly in life, no one can ignore it, so in addition to continuing to invest, one should keep in mind the issue of protection during unexpected situations and for this, an emergency fund is mandatory.

You will always find people who are timing the market,waiting patiently for the price of Bitcoin to go up for them to sell for quick profits. I believe the sole reason people invest in bitcoin is to make realistic profits from holding bitcoin as a store of value but selling too early isn't the right way to get some huge profits out of the system. bitcoin was built in a way that work best only by investing for the long term,that's why traders that tries to outsmart the market for quick profits often run in losses because they are gambling instead of investing for the long term.
It takes discipline to be a long term investor, it's not everybody that can be diligent enough to be taking money off there discretionary funds to be buying Bitcoin for many years. There will always be distractions along the way like when price hits a new ATH. They'll be tempted to sell forgetting that Bitcoin has the potentials to always reach new ATH. If you know what you are aiming for, a target you set from the beginning or early enough, you will not even be bothered by price reaching a new all time high. The problem most people have is looking at the dollar value of their Bitcoin every now and them instead of setting their target on the quantity of Bitcoin they want to accumulate. If you set a target of having 2 Bitcoin probably before you reach 40 years, why will you be bothered about selling when the price rises? The price will never matter to you because you have a target of 2BTC in the next 10 to 20 years assuming you are 30yr or 20yr old now respectively. I thought about this and I realized that setting my target on Bitcoin and not the price will help shield me from the temptation of selling too quick when I see high prices. I think you should consider that and see how everything will become easy for me. You are right , A good plan or discipline brings long term mindset not everyone can be think of long term they always focus on short term orientation, as a new investor you should diligently think of setting your goal on long term. discretionary funds can be use to purchase Bitcoin for long term. sure distractions might be there , if you look forward the way the price of Bitcoin is , it has hits a new ATH.not knowing Bitcoin has the ability to leave for long term.

...Buying the dip is not bad, but waiting for it(Dip) to come before you start your Bitcoin investment journey is the wrong approach here and we advise that you can start small with the DCA and accumulate Bitcoin...
There are different strategies that can be used for accumulating bitcoin and I believe that if each of the strategy is properly apply definitely will have a good result and if it is not properly apply then we are left with a poor investment. Therefore non of the strategies is bad , an investor can combine all the strategies but it shouldn't be wrongly apply. There is absolutely nothing wrong in buying the dip whenever it occurs but waiting for bitcoin to dip is something that will make us to miss market opportunities since no one can speculate correctly the market direction.

What's actually wrong their is you keep delaying your accumulation because you keep waiting for those dips. If we look at the current situation of Bitcoin it already pass thru the dumps happened. If people keep waiting when the price is at $109k - $110k then provably they missed big time when Bitcoin price recovers at current price level. That's why instead of thinking about waiting for dips because you can buy more Bitcoin. I'd rather choose to buy now and avoid being so technical since somehow my intention for my bought coins is for long term and I'm not aiming to get a quick gain since I think its risky also not totally worth to spend our time on.

Dude I understand you very well but I want you to understand that even though we say that there is no bad strategy for accumulating bitcoin, we have very efficient one as such and that's the reason we preach about always for espacially newbies that just want to start there journey in bitcoin, i want you to understand that when an investor is accumulating bitcoin with DCA method, such investor has nothing to worry about because he can actually buy at all time be it during the dips and the uptrend so that's how beautiful DCA method is, when you are DCAing you can buy in lump sum too at anytime if you have the funds for that, dude I must tell you that there's no method of buying bitcoin that's better than the DCA method although I know you didn't argue that.

The best time to accumulate Bitcoin is not when the price is low, although it is the traders that think in this direction because they want to buy low and sell on an increase while an investor will focus on the long term benefits and not the short term and this will result them in to consideration every time or condition of the market as an opportunity to increase the quantity of their Bitcoin as they buy all the time be it when the price is high or low and this is the best approach because, Bitcoin is for long term investment and not good for short term ( trading) buy when in high or low with dollar cost averaging.
