Self-Custody is a right. Say no to "non-custodial"

Frequently, I like to suggest that folks who are investing into bitcoin, should try to figure out ways to invest into bitcoin as aggressively as they are able to do without overdoing it.  For sure, guys with strong cashflow management will be in a better position to invest aggressively into bitcoin as compared with folks who either don't have strong cashflow management and/or are otherwise unorganized in their finances.

Another thing is that level of aggressiveness or whimpiness is totally a discretionary matter in which each person is completely free to choose their level of aggressiveness or their level of whimpiness when it comes to how much priority they give to bitcoin investing and how much priority they give to strengthening their cashflow management systems/practices (which includes the level of their back up fund building and/or maintenance)
For a low-income person, there are many obstacles to being aggressive, even if they are willing to invest aggressively, their financial situation stands in the way of being aggressive.

Being aggressive is a description of how a person is investing within their abilities. It is not about how much income you have.

Yes, of course, a rich person has more options.

A poor person can still choose his level of aggressiveness or not within the scope of his discretionary funds.  And, yeah, if they barely have any discretionary funds, they might not even be able to invest in bitcoin since they don't have enough... I understand that.

We should find one source of income along with another source of income. Once we are able to find a source of income, we can easily invest aggressively without going overboard.

Sure, getting more income can help how much discretionary funds that a person has to work with, but the idea of being aggressive is still not about how much you have.

Maybe you need an example to use the expression properly?

Let's say that 3 persons have an income of $15k per year (which is $1225 per month), and their expenses are $1k per month, which would leave $225 per month in their discretionary income.

1) One of them in the middle invests $75, saves back  ups as $75 and discretionarily consumes $75

2) A second one as whimpy invests $15, saves back ups as $80 and discretionarily consumes $130

3) A third one as aggressive invests $180, saves back ups as $30 and discretionarily consumes $15


If they get a raise and their discretionary income goes from $225 per month up to $1,200 per monht, yet if they keep the same proportions then they have not become more aggressive merely because their incomes and amount invested went up.

Let's say after the raise their expenses stay the same, but their income goes up to $2,200 per month, so each of them ends up having $1,200 of discretionary funds

4) The one in the middle invests $400, saves back  ups as $400 and discretionarily consumes $400

5) The second one as whimpy invests $30, saves back ups as $150 and discretionarily consumes $1,020

6) The third one as aggressive invests $900, saves back ups as $200 and discretionarily consumes $100

Even though the amount of discretionary income went up in the second example, each of them in 4, 5 and 6 stayed in the same category because they largely kept their proportions the same, even though each of them increased the amounts in each of the categories, including each of them increased the amounts that they invested based on increased discretionary income.

However, we must be able to manage our finances properly. There are many who have a source of income or a lot of income but are unable to manage their finances properly, so they cannot invest aggressively or in many cases, they become unable to maintain continuity. Proper financial management is very necessary to maintain the continuity of our investments and enjoy the benefits of the decline.

Sure.  In the real world, there tends to be inconsistencies in regards to income and expenses, so discretionary funds are not going to necessarily be the same for each month.

A person is in a better position to be aggressive if he has strong cashflow management practices in place, meaning if he has good back up funds, he is more covered in case he makes a mistake.

Buying bitcoin aggressively is still the same thing as buying bitcoin consistently and their is nothing wrong with this, so far as you are not buying with the amount you cant afford. And if you must buy bitcoin aggressively or consistently it must be an amount you can afford,  doing this is just for the benfit of every investor to take the opportunity to accumulate much bitcoin and hodl.

Buying bitcoin aggressively is never a stress but the ideal thing to do for an investor who understand what bitcoin investment is all about. It can be stressful for only those who dont understand what bitcoin and it investment is all about.

By definition, buying bitcoin aggressively and buying bitcoin consistently are not the same thing. 

The two words have different meanings. 

For example, you could consistently buy bitcoin in a whimpy way or you could non-consistently buy bitcoin in an aggressive way.

Frequently, I like to suggest that folks who are investing into bitcoin, should try to figure out ways to invest into bitcoin as aggressively as they are able to do without overdoing it.  For sure, guys with strong cashflow management will be in a better position to invest aggressively into bitcoin as compared with folks who either don't have strong cashflow management and/or are otherwise unorganized in their finances.

Another thing is that level of aggressiveness or whimpiness is totally a discretionary matter in which each person is completely free to choose their level of aggressiveness or their level of whimpiness when it comes to how much priority they give to bitcoin investing and how much priority they give to strengthening their cashflow management systems/practices (which includes the level of their back up fund building and/or maintenance)
Discretionary income is the determining factor for how aggressively or whimpily a person can invest because it basically shows you what you can afford to put in without tampering with your essentials, so yes you’re very correct Sir JJG, being aggressive just means doing as much as you comfortably can, there’s no need to try and force yourself to go all in like it’s a weekend’s bet.😆 If your cashflow is solid and your finances are in order, then yeah, you can push harder without putting yourself in an uncomfortable situation. If there’s extra money then you can choose to go harder but if it’s small, then you take it easy, Simple.
And the truth is that everyone’s aggressive looks different. For one person it’s $20, for another person is $500 but there’s no need to compete, it isn’t a race and no one is giving out medals for the fastest bitcoin buyer.

Levels of aggressiveness or whimpiness are choices that guys make and they can even change their level of aggressiveness or whimpiness based on a variety of factors, including things going on in their lives.

Guys like to consider the changing of aggressiveness or whimpiness based on changes in the BTC price, yet making those changes based on changes in the price could end up resulting in mistakes, yet guys are free to do what they like. 

i frequently suggest that guys who have sloppy or unorganized finances may well put themselves into a bad situation if they increase their level of aggressiveness, and guys who are more organized and have higher levels of back up funds, they tend to be in a better position to increase their level of aggressiveness without increasing their chances of getting themselves into trouble.

Therefore, the two words are two different ways of describing what you may or may not be doing in terms of your bitcoin buys.

[edited out]
I will advise if you want to be aggressive when using DCA strategy to accumulate Bitcoin try to have a reserve funds and this reserve funds will only be used to accumulate aggressively when there's a dip this way you won't be pressured to use more than your discretionary income to accumulate during the dip, so from now you can start building your reserve funds meant for aggressive accumulation during the dip.

Sorry to break the news to you, but your level of aggressiveness does not increase with the addition of reserve funds to buy the dip... when you hold back money to buy the dip, arguably you are increasing your use of waiting strategies and even changing your mindset towards waiting.

I have no problem with guys who want to hold back some money for buying dips, yet I would consider them to be living in a fantasy if they believe that they are increasing their aggressiveness by employing waiting strategies into their buying and into their mindset.

It is very bad to use more than your discretionary income for Bitcoin investment it is never advisable to do that, use only your discretionary income if you don't have a reserve funds that you can use to accumulate aggressively during a dip don't be aggressive except you have a very strong emergency funds.

Surely reserve funds are built up from discretionary funds, so there is no problem to designate some or all of the reserve funds for buying dips.  Sometimes guys might also search for extra funds or even extra ways to earn money during BTC price dippening periods.. .to the extent that dips can be identified, since we can have dips that keep dipping and we can also have dips that are over, yet we don't realize that they are over, so we unnecessarily hang onto more funds than we should to wait for dips that might not happen. 

From my perspective, that holding back for dips that may or may not happen does not sound as if it is more aggressive of an approach as compared with a guy who consistently, persistently, ongoingly, regularly buys bitcoin with whatever funds he has as those funds come available.

1) Self-Custody is a right.  Resist being labelled 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

Another thing is that it is not right to become aggressive because the price is rising or falling. Going beyond your limits because the price is low and buying more out of fear when the price increases can both put us under stress.
You shouldn't be aggressive based on the price of bitcoin at that moment but based on the fact that you have the money to buy aggressively which is the reason why when you have the money to DCA aggressively, you do it without thinking twice.

It's based on your financial strength playing around you at that moment and the size of your backup funds that will determine your level of aggressiveness. When you buy aggressively and front load your bitcoin investment, you will get to your accumulation target faster.

When you buy over aggressively because the price is low, you are gambling because you have bought beyond your discretionary income and when your needs arises, you will sell at loss if the price of bitcoin is lower than your entry point.

This is true, as a long term investor there’s no market price you can’t buy aggressively if you have the financial capacity to do so. Aggressive buying is encouraged but people must make sure they don’t over do it by using the cash or money they’re supposed to use for sorting out other basic or mandatory needs, but when buying aggressively it should be done according to your discretionary income. Choosing to buy aggressively during when price is dip is not DCA but dip buying which means you have a trading mindset because you are literally waiting and saving money aside just to target when the price is very down before you can buy bitcoin.
As long as the investor is using his discretionary income to be aggressive in buying bitcoin there is nothing wrong/ bad in it aggressiveness with out over doing it is what most investors does most expecially when the price is low is a way of buying more bitcoin and its not going to affect them because they use money they can afford to loss, when people get carried away with the sweetness of the market and buy with money they can't afford to loss that's where we can condemn it.

Bitcoin investment should be focused on, whenever an investor focuses on Bitcoin investment, he will be able to purchase Bitcoin with his desired income. Many people condemn being aggressive in Bitcoin investment but this is not at all appropriate, because if Bitcoin is invested with prudent income, that investment will never fail. Because in the current position, the price of Bitcoin is under sufficient control, this is the only attractive time to invest.
If people's money is to be used properly, then investing in Bitcoin according to the DCA method is the best plan. This is the only suitable method to eliminate economic shortages in the future.

The price of Bitcoin is never under control. Even if the current price seems low to you, it is high for many, they are waiting for it to decrease further. Over all , the very correct thing is that you should never wait for the DIP and also never invest depending on the price of Bitcoin. The right time is determined by the financial condition of the person who is investing. If the investor has discretionary income  then he can do DCA with a long-term mindset at any price at any time of bitcoin. Because if the investment period is prolonged, the price of Bitcoin will be more or less during this period. There, you will be able to buy Bitcoin at the average price. Therefore, investment should depend on the financial condition of the investor. If the price decreases slightly and you invest in a hurry, if you do not have the ability to create proper fund management, cash flow and discretionary income and no ability to create backup funds, then you can attempt panic sell or force sell future.

It is not bad to buy bitcoin aggressively. Two things that needs to be considered while doing so is to buy with the amount that you can afford and to buy with understanding,  and if one is buying this way their is nothing wrong with it provided the target is to hodl and  not buying and later on you think of do otherwise.  The reason why people invest in bitcoin aggressively is because they understand the value and while they can afford to buy in this manner it is an opportunity.

No one controls Bitcoin price, it's volatile in nature and has no central control by any authority and that is the beauty of decentralization and censorship resistance feature of Bitcoin. Now is not only the attractive time to buy, every other price is attractive as long as you're using DCA and you're committed to staying in Bitcoin for long. The dip presents opportunity to buy at cheaper prices and those DCAing would get more quantities for the same buying amount. When the price starts going up again, Bitcoin is still very much attractive to buy since we are not buying because of the price attractiveness, we're buying consistently to accumulate a good portfolio of Bitcoin for ourselves on the long-run. So regardless of the price we stumble upon, Bitcoin remains attractive and we should keep accumulating and holding.

Buying bitcoin aggressively is never a stress but the ideal thing to do for an investor who understand what bitcoin investment is all about. It can be stressful for only those who dont understand what bitcoin and it investment is all about.

By definition, buying bitcoin aggressively and buying bitcoin consistently are not the same thing.

For example, you could consistently buy bitcoin in a whimpy way or you could non-consistently buy bitcoin in an aggressive way.
Yes, the definitions of both are not the same, even though they both want to make a profit, they both refer to different behaviors in managing capital and risk. Consistency is a wealth-building strategy. For example, someone buys the same amount every month, regardless of the market price. The goal is also to eliminate emotion and timing. This strategy is considered very safe for investors with small capital and a mind that doesn't want to be complicated.
Meanwhile, aggressive trading tends to maximize profit, such as frequently increasing purchases during corrections. However, aggressive buying without clear rules can easily lead to greed. The goal is to accumulate more Bitcoin at a low price. For example, if a 10% price drop isn't enough, wait until it drops to 30%, and the price turns around or stagnates, and you end up not buying at all.

At certain times I often use the "dynamic DCA" strategy which combines consistency and aggressiveness, I use this method when there is a market correction by increasing the DCA amount to 2x for each purchase.

I Agree with you because going by definition the two words have different meaning so they cannot mean the same thing. more importantly is discretionary income because without it a person can neither invest consistently or buy aggressively. As long as a person has discretionary income,he can buy consistently and aggressively, buying over aggressive is similar to gambling  any mistakes can affect his Bitcoin accumulation or forced him to sell when he doesn't intend to. However buying consistently and aggressively is fine provided we are using discretionary income.

This isn't entirely true mate. One could still be using the DCA strategy and still be over aggressive in a way that could potentially affect their overall financial condition. The rules of being aggressive in your accumulation (regardless of the strategy used) is that you need to make sure that your major drive for being aggressive isn't just your emotions reacting to a temporary market shift, but rather, you have evaluated your overall strategy as well as your individual factors and is sure beyond all reasonable doubt that the decision fully aligns with it, then surely you can say that you're doing the right thing, but i you are not sure about it then you need to question that decision.

At certain times I often use the "dynamic DCA" strategy which combines consistency and aggressiveness, I use this method when there is a market correction by increasing the DCA amount to 2x for each purchase.
You should do what works for you because being aggressive should be done based on your own ability. I don't buy aggressively due to the condition of the market at that moment because I don't like keeping cash on ground waiting to buy aggressively during the dip. I DCA aggressively when the extra money is available to go aggressively and I do that and forget about it.

What if you don't have money to increase your DCA 2x your normal amount when there's a price correction. It means that you wouldn't be able to buy aggressively however, this is why we have our reserve funds to use for buying at the dip and for other purposes. If you buy aggressively based on the change in price of bitcoin could lead to making mistakes that will affect your bitcoin portfolio.

DCA strategy is not only suitable for newbies to use in Bitcoin investments, but has been also found to be more applicable to anyone interested to invest on a monthly occasion depending on their source of income, one of the best strategy to adopt is this, because it's helps to afford investing by taking an entry upon the market falls at each month, this is why some will say always buy the dip, it means a lot because we are expected to invest when the market falls and their hold until it rises before selling.

To some people it has to be only the dip as if the dip is is the only time be aggressive and must it even be the dip since we are aggressively DCAing, why some investors do not understand is that we can have more money any day or anytime that will help us to get aggressive.
As for buying aggressively beyond what you capable of, this only happens when an investor doesn't understand the process of buying aggressively, aggressive buying shouldn't be done all the time unless we have what it takes and and as you said it should be with our left over funds as we fondly call it, some people think they are smart, they think buying the dip with the amount the set aside is the same with aggressive buying, good anything you made it to be more clearer for the person involved.

Waiting to buy the dip is a trader’s mindset and anything that involves buying when price is down and selling when price is up is straight up trading.
A long term investor doesn’t obsess over dips or let market movements influence their decision making before they buy and accumulate, if a dip happens to occur during your accumulation stage then you can buy it but you must not wait for it before you buy it.

Been aware of the basic knowledge about Bitcoin investment is not a strategy but rather it is a thing someone must or should know before going into Bitcoin investment.

Yes, a basic understanding is indeed important when you’re considering investing in Bitcoin, as it will help you gain a deeper understanding of Bitcoin so you can manage your investment more effectively. However, you don’t need to have all that knowledge to start investing in Bitcoin, you can start right now, as long as you have discretionary funds to make a purchase, you can do so immediately. It would be better to learn whilst continuing to buy little by little, so that you won’t regret missing out on buying opportunities later on, as no one knows how long Bitcoin will remain at this price, it could be that by the time you’ve acquired all the knowledge about Bitcoin, the price has risen by hundreds of per cent and you certainly wouldn’t want that to happen.

There are 3 basic strategies that can be use in Bitcoin accumulation which are the buy Dip, lump sum and DCA ( dollar cost averaging) and among the three strategies the DCA method is most preferable because it can help an investor accumulate at different phase of the market without pressure using the discretionary income.

I also see DCA as one of the best methods, even the only one. You don’t need to wait for the price to fall before buying, as long as you have the funds available, that is the best time to buy, regardless of the price of Bitcoin at the time, because the focus is on the long term, which is why this method is the most convenient for investors.

Setting aside emergency fund is a great initiative that will safeguard the investment. Like you said, is wonderful long term investment because it play jrole in the  investment process.

However, we must be careful so that we don't  create impression that newbies need emergency funds before they get started. They have to start f1rst and while they are at it, they can raise the emergency funds. So emergency fund is good for long term investment and not beginners whose main focus should be how to get as much Bitcoin as their finances can carry.

If a newcomer don't have emergency funds in placed and he start investing in Bitcoin. Now after 6 six months of bitcoin accumulation there is a need of money then what newbie will do in that case, he has no other option but to sell his bitcoin. Now this will keep happening again and again if you don't have emergency funds in place. If you want to invest for long term then you need emergency funds because that will give you necessary financial cushion in case there is urgent requirement of money.

This strategy is considered very safe for investors with small capital and a mind that doesn't want to be complicated.
DCA is also applied by investors with larger discretionary income, the goal is to buy consistently as long as discretionary income is available. DCA does not eliminate the risk of investing if you go beyond your discretionary income, if the investor decides to become over aggressive, DCA  would not save them. DCA is for periodic purchases from a place of comfort and what makes your investment safe is the good cashflow management practices you employ and your building backup funds to protect your investment.

Quote
Meanwhile, aggressive trading tends to maximize profit, such as frequently increasing purchases during corrections. However, aggressive buying without clear rules can easily lead to greed. The goal is to accumulate more Bitcoin at a low price. For example, if a 10% price drop isn't enough, wait until it drops to 30%, and the price turns around or stagnates, and you end up not buying at all.
The goal of DCA is not to accumulate more at a low price, but to accumulate more quantities with consistently over a long period regardless of the price. If you employ a waiting strategy in your ongoing DCA, then you have shifted from DCA strategy and employed buying the dip strategy and this is not the best approach for a person who is still very early in his accumulation journey.

DCA strategy is not only suitable for newbies to use in Bitcoin investments, but has been also found to be more applicable to anyone interested to invest on a monthly occasion depending on their source of income, one of the best strategy to adopt is this, because it's helps to afford investing by taking an entry upon the market falls at each month, this is why some will say always buy the dip, it means a lot because we are expected to invest when the market falls and their hold until it rises before selling.

Firstly, buying Bitcoin is isn't tagged to monthly buys alone, nope. Just as you said, you buy depending on your cash flow, or depending on how best it's suits you, based on how you have arranged your buy. For example, you can decide to invest $100 per month into Bitcoin from your discretionary. You can decide to split the $100 into four accumulation weeks($25 per week) or you can also accumulate twice a month($50 per two weeks) or you can as well decide to buy once($100) at the end of the month. So, it all depends on you and what suits you

Secondly, buying the DiP is good, but we can't refer to it as the best strategy of buying Bitcoin. We have other strategies such as the DCA and lump sum, all of which are okay. I think waiting completely for a fall before you buy isn't a good investment practice because it delays your accumulation process. Of course, we can be consistently buying using the DCA and still buy the DIP when opportunities shows up. But waiting till it falls before buying isn't okay for me at all

DCA strategy definitely works the way you said, but I think trying too closely to buy the dip can actually look confusing to some newbies. In my own understanding, it’s better to focus on consistent accumulation instead of timing the market, with DCA, the main goals is to gradually build up your bitcoin investment over a period of time, irrespective of weather the price is up or down. This approach really removes tensions or fear of guessing market movements and make investments more disciplined and less one's emotional.
 Even with the small amount, anyone can start their Bitcoin investment journey and stay consistent. Of course, when buying the dip or during the dips is a great opportunity and should be taken advantage of when possible,most expecially if someone has extra funds. But it should not be the only focus, because some folks waited too long for the perfect dip and end up missing out everything completely.moreover steady accumulation through the Dollar-Cost Averaging is better, while buying when  there's dip is just an additional bonus, not the main strategy.

Frequently, I like to suggest that folks who are investing into bitcoin, should try to figure out ways to invest into bitcoin as aggressively as they are able to do without overdoing it.  For sure, guys with strong cashflow management will be in a better position to invest aggressively into bitcoin as compared with folks who either don't have strong cashflow management and/or are otherwise unorganized in their finances.

Another thing is that level of aggressiveness or whimpiness is totally a discretionary matter in which each person is completely free to choose their level of aggressiveness or their level of whimpiness when it comes to how much priority they give to bitcoin investing and how much priority they give to strengthening their cashflow management systems/practices (which includes the level of their back up fund building and/or maintenance)
For a low-income person, there are many obstacles to being aggressive, even if they are willing to invest aggressively, their financial situation stands in the way of being aggressive.

Being aggressive is a description of how a person is investing within their abilities. It is not about how much income you have.

Yes, of course, a rich person has more options.

A poor person can still choose his level of aggressiveness or not within the scope of his discretionary funds.  And, yeah, if they barely have any discretionary funds, they might not even be able to invest in bitcoin since they don't have enough... I understand that.
A poor man can be aggressive as  can a rich man, they don't have to be accumulating at the same rate since a person aggressively can only be determined by the own discretionary fund so if a person has a monthly discretionary fund of $50 and they are investing $40 into their bitcoin they can be said to be more aggressive then someone who has $500 in discretionary fund but is investing $250, the second person is investing more than they first but the first person is investing more aggressively then the second so their aggressiveness isn't determined by how much they are investing but by how much of their discretionary fund there are investing.

This is true, as a long term investor there’s no market price you can’t buy aggressively if you have the financial capacity to do so. Aggressive buying is encouraged but people must make sure they don’t over do it by using the cash or money they’re supposed to use for sorting out other basic or mandatory needs, but when buying aggressively it should be done according to your discretionary income. Choosing to buy aggressively during when price is dip is not DCA but dip buying which means you have a trading mindset because you are literally waiting and saving money aside just to target when the price is very down before you can buy bitcoin.
To some people it has to be only the dip as if the dip is is the only time be aggressive and must it even be the dip since we are aggressively DCAing, why some investors do not understand is that we can have more money any day or anytime that will help us to get aggressive.

No doubts, we can always be aggressive with buying bitcoin through any techniques, but I’m going to think that a very possible scenario would be having that discretionary amount to be more aggressive, considering that we usually buy bitcoin on a weekly basis of $100, then we have other cashflows that enables us to have more discretionary income, then the individual can decide for example to buy $150 -$200 depending on how much they feel comfortable to be accumulating, I feel that is also being aggressive, and they can be doing it with DCA and not only through the dip, I feel the dip is just a means of taking opportunity for the market conditions it also presents another means of being more aggressive and a cheaper way, Buying aggressively is good considering that you you have a discretionary money to buy aggressively.
