What Would you have done differently if you restart your journey with Bitcoin?

[Zanab247]

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I got to know BTC through one of my brother that based in the city in 2020, and he explained everything to me about BTC and he spend some times in the village to ensure I got it before he return back to his residence state in Nigeria.

It was not a smooth journey at the beginning, because I was still finding something difficult to understand the way the price of BTC was dumping and the BTC in my wallet will be devaluing in my wallet, but one year later I became very perfect about BTC investment, and my brother was very happy that I got it right after the impact him impacted me.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

Yes, the mistake I made in my BTC journey, I used to trade my BTC when the price just newly pump up in the market, thinking it will still go down immediately but the price will continue pumping higher after I have sold all my BTC, which was the mistake I made then, but right now, i don't rush to trade when the price of BTC just hit high in the market than to wait for the price to pump more before I can trade to take big  profits.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

Firstly bitcoin isn't a gold coin because gold coin are physical tendered assets which the governments regulates while bitcoin remains digital asset and decentralized.
I actually heard about bitcoin around 2010 but just as many suspected to be unrealistic so I did too. The only mistake I did was to doubt the realistic of the coin because if I did is would had accumulated much huge values of bitcoin than the late time I realized the reality value and potentials of bitcoin and if I am to go back to make correction about bitcoin then I'd adoptor when it was first introduced with $0.00.
Any my advice to newbies is that they should believe that bitcoin is a reality to store values and there had been introduced lot of crypto currencies with the aim of the developers to scam adoptors so, be careful while investing on other cryptocurrencies aside bitcoin.
Talking about the future of bitcoin in 50 years time is undeterminable but it's sure that bitcoin would become more dominance and value as times goes by til then.

When I said golden, I didn't mean gold, I only meant that it is a gem, a precious virtual coin that it is.

Oh wow, that is great though and it is funny that people didn't believe it at first but they now do, I wished I had bought it with my school fees then, mama would have been proud of mew by now. Haaaa

Buying Bitcoin with your school fees wouldn't have been a good idea considering that fact that Bitcoin investment is not a get rich quick scheme where you accumulate Bitcoin with your little amount and expect to get rich soonest, for you need to be readily prepare before investing so it will not affect your personal life and your Bitcoin investment journey, for you will need to set aside your discretionary income and your disposable income, with your emergency, reserve and float fund readily available so you won't sell out your Bitcoin hodling when emergency may occur. Also with your DCA method it will help accumulate more Bitcoin either weekly or monthly as the case may be.

Let's learn and laugh together guys, share with us the following about your experience with the golden coin Bitcoin:

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I first came to know about Bitcoin in 2017 through TV news in my country. Basically I was not very curious about money related matters at that time because my family did not give me that right. I was passionate about studies and family wanted it.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

To be honest, if I had the opportunity to study more about Bitcoin at that time, my financial situation could have been better. Even investing in my country's historical market system through fiat would not have wasted time and I would not have lost so much money.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

Believe me - I always regret that if I had known about bitcoin forums earlier, my life could have been better. I might have a few bitcoin circles full.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

I came to know about this forum through one of my friends towards the end of my student life and by then it was too late and I am now a jobber and a small bitcoin holder as well.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

I mainly focus on depositing bitcoins following DCA method and want to fill at least one full circle. On a regular basis I continue to deposit a portion of my disposable income into Bitcoin each month through DCA management. I expect Bitcoin to cross its ATH shortly. I am more optimistic that it can touch $100k within this year. While it is difficult to predict what will happen to Bitcoin in the next 50 years, I can say that there may come a time in the future when people will have a lot of money but not be able to buy Bitcoin - either because of insufficiency or because holders will not sell. Most investors concentrate on holdings.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

I got to know about Bitcoin in 2016 and joined this forum in 2017 if I can remember correctly and since then the only mistake I had made so far was to try to use Trust wallet at the instant to HoDL my coins. Well, I lost the phone in which my trust wallet was, I didn't know where I wrote the seed phrases and even though I tried to recover the or should I say download the trust wallet again, I lost the former along with the little coins I had in it.

I don't know what I would have done differently because I didn't know better until joining this forum and learning about the best practices to keep my wallet safe.
My best journey with Bitcoin has been receiving payments for jobs I have done in Bitcoin and then I trade and withdraw to another wallet or diversify to another coin to trade later or hodl till further notice.

Bitcoin in the next 50years is going to be a massive revelation in that there would be more adopters and more newcomers as well as it being used as a common means to facilitate payments upon completion of transaction and services rendered.

Let's learn and laugh together guys, share with us the following about your experience with the golden coin Bitcoin:

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I knew about bitcoin since 2014 but never took it seriously not until 2022 when I did my first transaction through trust wallet.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

Yea I actually made mistake during transaction from roqque to trust wallet but not bitcoin actually rather TRX which was sent mistakenly from an intended network to another network. Uptill date I haven't received it.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

If I had the power to turn hands of time, I would have took bitcoin accumulation seriously by buying it in balk and stack.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

My favourite or best time with bitcoin was when I started to receive bitcoin from signature campaign in this forum.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

Bitcoin is the future and the future start now. I believe by 50 years time people would be super rich through bitcoin. If only they can take accumulation process seriously without procrastination and self doubt of when to start buying. For now is the best time to buy and stack bitcoin .because the opportunity to buy bitcoin at affordable rate will be not be possible when bitcoin would have emerged to $1m or more.

The advice I have for the newbies is to always make judicious use of any given opportunity expecially bitcoin Investment. They should stop procrastinating because that is an element of backwardness out of laziness. Time is money so they should use their time well and also lean how to Focus because lack od focus is also a barrier to success.

[Odohu]

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I learnt about Bitcoin during those days there were restriction to FX in our country, so I had to ask questions on how to send money across borders. Bitcoin came through for me as I could send money with ease. Buying it was a little challenging though because it was mainly through agents, most of which were scammers. It was when Luno, NairaEX and Binance became popular that it was easier.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

Each time I look at my wallet in those earlier days, I feel like crying because of the volume of Bitcoin that have passed through me yet I didn't hold. I was just buying and using to pay for subscription and other services abroad. Some of them were even invested in projects that turn out to be scam. My biggest regrets is not holding any of those Bitcoin. By now I would have been comfortable financially. 

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

if everything play back again, I will rather hold most of those Bitcoin that use them the way I did.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

My best time in Bitcoin is now because I am now holding Bitcoin as I have decided that I will never run out of Bitcoin again.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

Bitcoin is the future of finance so the price and influence will be huge as time progresses and as we experience more Bitcoin halving, the scarcity will increase leading to higher prices.

Don't blame yourself for not accumulating bitcoin when you first heard about it in 2010. People hate what they don't understand. So many of us here failed to accumulate bitcoin the very first time we heard about it. If the person who bought 2 pizzas for 10,000 bitcoins knew the price of bitcoin would be this high, he would have held his bitcoin for a long time without selling it for a penny. We have seen what bitcoin has done; we should make use of this opportunity and accumulate enough bitcoin for the long term so that we will not regret for not accumulating bitcoin now that the price is still low.

Let's learn and laugh together guys, share with us the following about your experience with the golden coin Bitcoin:

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

Earlier those days when I start to dey hear about Bitcoin I been dey so much confused on how I go take start to dey buy Bitcoin. Although those early days I thought Bitcoin was basically for trading only so along the line I manage to join this forum and I can't remember how, so from there I learnt a lot from the forum that I knew Bitcoin is worldwide and you need to choose what you want to use Bitcoin for. From the forum I see many threads whey dey teach people better things about Bitcoin investment (like buy the dip and hold thread), so me self read the thread and I also learn many things from the thread, so now I done know say for person to achieve big as a bitcoiner him need to invest for long term.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

Omor the truth is that I have been scam (though it's pass tense) and I know history can not repeat it self.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

Well like I said early that I was scammed while I was trying to invest in Bitcoin. However what I would have done is to correct the mistakes that I ones did earlier the days I heard about Bitcoin that made me to get scammed.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

Besides I don't have any best time for now but I think I gladly say that my best time is every time.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

Well, Bitcoin is a good store of value now and to my observations, nothing will ever change the worth Bitcoin have now, so if Bitcoin can be a good store of value now it means it will be more valuable in the next 50 years.

2. Yes I made some silly mistake buy selling my 2 bitcoin I bought back then to him. My advice to newbies is just to always hold onto their bitcoin for as long as possible.

3. I will keep my bitcoin and not sell it to my brother, I will even buy more and hold.

4. My best time in bitcoin was in 2021, that's the year I made good money from bitcoin.

5. Bitcoin will become very expensive and scarce. The price will soar very high. Bitcoin will become the most important digital asset in the world.

1-] Bitcoin is everywhere, as long as we are in a digital environment we can hear about crypto currency. However I heard about Bitcoin from internet and I was motivated to do Bitcoin because of that I heard about it and since I decided to join the crypto space I have no regrets about it.

2-] Although since I have had Bitcoin education from this forum there is no mistakes that I have made, everyday I make sure I cross check any transaction I would do before I continue (confirm) so that I won't end up doing anything that will result to a mistake.

3-] If it's possible to go back to the old days I would be happy but it's not possible to reverse the world, the reasons why I would be happy if thing goes back to the past is that I could be able to acquire more Bitcoin because 4 years ago Bitcoin was low, I will use the opportunity to buy enough Bitcoin and hold them till now.

4-] I didn't not regret my actions at all because everytime is the best. For a bitcoiner to buy Bitcoin, if we are waiting for any best time before we starts to buy Bitcoin we will wait and continue waiting , so now is the best.

5-] This is a very interesting question mate, 50 years from now we belief that Bitcoin will high more than how it is right now, so if 50 years is added to Bitcoin and in the life of a bitcoiner there will be a lot of achievements if we continue to invest.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

Firstly, I use to hear about Bitcoin when I was under 15 then the value of Bitcoin wasn't this huge and back then I  don't actually know the worth not until I friend of mine who is into Bitcoin explain to me how it works and how he has been making profit that was 2018.

Yeah, I think a silly mistake I made was not investing when my friend to me about it cause the DCA method would helped and maybe I wouldn't have been where I am today but I still believe there's hope since there's life.

Omo if I go fit turn the hand of clock ehn, I go invest waiting no good for Bitcoin but it's impossible so, I will just have to keep on pushing and take advantage when it is necessary and I won't let that same mistake repeat again.

I think my favorite time with Bitcoin was ending of last year when I joined this great forum and one of the thread was like a question " what do you think will happen to Bitcoin", low and behold the price has gotten to new ATH this year.


I can't actually tell what will happen cause it's been created or invented  by human so anything is possible but with what am seeing now I think it will be much greater than it is right now and that is our hope.

[obuoma]

Thank you for bringing this topic which I have learnt so much from the experience of others. It is interesting to see that we all have our various stories to tell about our journey in Bitcoin.

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I have heard about Bitcoin for a very long time but I never paid attention until I joined a PGD program where I met a coursmate that happens to be my roommate. He was deeply into crypto trading and doing very well in it. That was how I developed interest in Bitcoin.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

It took me coming to this forum to learn about holding bitcoin and if I had learnt this part first, I would have held most of the money I spent in trading. I was told it was like my school fees to be able to learn and master the market. Assuming I held those without trading them, it would have been something reasonable now as the price of Bitcoin have risen significantly. I will advice my fellow newer members to concentrate more on holding for long term than looking for fast profit.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

Like I explained above, I would have held my bitcoin rather than trade them away. I will not regret though because without mistakes, one will not learn very fast.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

I think this is my first time experiencing bull run in Bitcoin so I will say my best time should be now because the small I have bought and doing pretty well.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

I am hoping that Bitcoin will do very well 50 years from now and those of us investing in it now would be made by then. I don't know what price to expect but it should be something very big.

[letteredhub]

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

Not so sure if my favourite time with bitcoin has really taken place, I shouldn't be in a rush to say anything for now till I witness what I wish to term my first bull run as an active hodler.

Anyone who have been in this space for some time now and have studied the past and present performances of the bitcoin market will have much reasons to be optimistic about bitcoin future in the next 5 decades ahead. For now we just keep hodling.

[nelson4lov]

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I got to know about Bitcoin in late 2016 when I was searching for information about TBC coin which was supposedly better than bitcoin. I had zero idea about both Bitcoin abd TBC at the time.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

Aside from selling too early and not accumulating enough Bitcoin over the years, nothing beats it.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

I would accumulate more Bitcoin and not sell the ones I had over the years. Should have been worth a sizeable amount now.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

Best time was when mempool used to be almost empty and bitcoin was dirt cheap (sub $1k).

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

I would definitely love to see more adoption for Bitcoin as well as technological improvements that that makes it lightening fast, seamless and extremely cheap to make transactions on the Bitcoin network.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

1. It was my friend that told me about Bitcoin in the university 2018.

2. Yes I made a very big mistake when my friend told me about Bitcoin I refused to invest i told her Bitcoin has gone far already and that at that point it won't grow anymore so I invested on one shit coin for 3 years and I later lost everything.
I will advise my follow newbie to start and concentrate only on Bitcoin and choose a long term investment using DCA method.

3. If I was to go back in time, that 2018 my friend told me about Bitcoin i will invest on it and on a very long term investment using DCA method.
Till today I regret investing on that shit coin I was thinking Bitcoin won't grow again I thought it has reached his pic, if I invested on Bitcoin from that 2018 till date using DCA method I would have been successful in Bitcoin investment, I deeply regret not investing that 2018.

4. I just started Bitcoin investment last year, after what happened to me 3 years ago when I lost my money on shit coin I stopped anything cryptocurrency investment I just started Bitcoin investment last year with the help of my friend my best year in Bitcoin is yet to come.

5. In the next 50 years Bitcoin would have grown so big and those that will hold till then will be so successful.

[kentrolla]

I would rather answer the question which is there in the title of this post and the answer would be familiar with what others would answer which is I would have saved as many Bitcoin as possible instead of selling it for dirt cheap price which I had sold in the past. Everyone would say same answer because no one would have spent it has they known it would have made them billionaire.

[Moreno233]

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

Well it was the bull run of 2021 that brought me into cryptocurrency but I did not buy Bitcoin then. You know there was so much hype then and many people started investing in cryptocurrency. Some made big profit while some made big losses especially those who were unable to sell high.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

I don't know if I can call it mistake but when I joined, I started with altcoins like BNB, ShIB and others because I was told the price of Bitcoin was too high that will make more money from altcoins. Well, I feel it is still a mistake because if I had bought only Bitcoin then, it would have been better for me because some of the coins I bought then are dead now and I lost heavily in those ones.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

This will be easy for me to put all my resources in Bitcoin. Assuming I kept buying Bitcoin from 2022 when the bear market finally started, it would have favoured me so much.

4. Your favourite or best time with Bitcoin?

I am yet to benefit much from Bitcoin as most of my Bitcoin are still held and not sold because I believe the future is looking promising for Bitcoin In that case, I believe that the best time for Bitcoin is still in the future, maybe when I will cash out some of my Bitcoin and really enjoy the money.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

My expectation is that Bitcoin will get to over $100,000 in the shortest possible time and after that target should be $500,000 before we see price go as high as $1,000,000. We don't know if this will happen with 50 years from today but we just keep expecting and see what the future have to offer.

1. How did you get to know about Bitcoin and in what year was that?

I got to know about Bitcoin when a friend introduced me to a WhatsApp group on 2019.

2. Did you make any silly mistake? if yes, what was it and what will you tell a newbie?

The mistakes I made them was not starting my investment into Bitcoin ,my advice to all newbie most especially those that haven't started investing into Bitcoin that they should start investing now so they can be able to grow their portfolio as time goes by.

3. If you are to go back in time, what do you wish you had done differently?

If am given the opportunity to go back in time I would have started my Bitcoin investment them and by now I would have  acquired as much Bitcoin in my portfolio

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?
 

             
   I believed that in the next 50 yrs the worth of Bitcoin can never be compare to any other assets.

5. How do you see Bitcoin in the next 50 years?

My biggest mistake in Bitcoin was not being able to start investing earlier before now, although their is nothing wrong starting when I did but it would have been more profitable on my investment on Bitcoin if I had started at the beginning, although the reason was that Bitcoin was very new and people did not really understand it that much so the doubt about the potential made people to have a double taught about investing on Bitcoin but however I'm very happy to have started the way I did because irrespective of the number of years I have missed but now I have been able to accumulate a reasonable amount of Bitcoin in my portfolio.

Although if I'm to go back in time or turn back the hands of time I would actually start accumulating Bitcoin right from the day one because by now I would actually have more than 100 Bitcoin because the price was more affordable then than now but however we cannot dwell in the past so no matter what the price has become now we will continue to invest on Bitcoin, meanwhile knowing what will actually become the price of Bitcoin in the 50 years to come could actually be impossible but however their is a certainty that price will be so much higher compare to what it is now.
