Just do Nothing

[Merit.s]

It depends on how much bitcoin you bought and the market condition when you bought it. If you bought a chunk of bitcoin during the bear market, you can go and sleep and wake up after four years to take profits. If you bought little quantity of bitcoin at a high price, going to sleep is a bad idea, because you will only see a little profit.

DCAing often when your discretionary income is available is the best because you keep in accumulating little by little overtime till it turns into something big. Don't forget that the bigger your bitcoin portfolio, the higher your profit is.

Buy and sleep? Do ensure that you take care of the following before you sleep

• self custody
• security and
• your emotions

So you don't wake up from your long sleep and find everything gone as a result of your own negligence and carelessness. Aside this, I agree with everything said in the op. Bitcoin truly does reward patience and consistency.

It's good that I understand the point, but shouldn't there be a major foundation that you should build on first? For example, I don't trade futures and focus on hodl, but economic conditions are not always stable. Therefore, I try to build the foundation of income first rather than saying the ideal of buying and then sleeping while the economic status is not so stable that we can only survive until halfway to continue hodl.

Therefore, when we talk about investment, we definitely have to consider our financial condition and financial management first.

It will indeed be very good when we invest in bitcoin but when we are actually preoccupied with the economic conditions that we have, it will only make it difficult for you.
Investing in bitcoin is always identical or ideal with the long term if you really want to minimize risk so it is important for us to spend money on bitcoin is money that is ready to be spent do not let money for needs actually be used as an investment because it is the same as killing yourself on the wrong path because when we need the money then we inevitably have to sell what we have bought in bitcoin no matter profit or loss.

Your addiction to motion.
Your constant need to act.
They are all traps to make sure that you keep losing your Bitcoin.
Either through trading or leveraging.

You never needed to do anything.
Buy and go back to sleep, wake up in few years and get rich. ( Stomach do go hungry, feed it and go back to sleep)

Trading doesn’t equate to losing all your bitcoin immediately. If you can do intelligently then it might even favor you.

Trading is not only futures or leverage trading; one can do spot trading if they know they can't bear the risks involved in futures trading, they can simply buy and sell in the spot market, without the need of using leverage and take very high risks. So many people make so much money from the spot market, they read the movemens of the market, buy the coin they have been watching closely when it gets in the buying zone, and then they wait for some time, and sell as soon as the price goes up a little. In this sort of trading, you don't lose money if the market goes down like futures, but you will need to wait until the market goes back up again.

Investments and trading are both for different types of people based on their capabilities of taking risks and the amount of money they have for it. Someone who has a lot of money to use could do both, but mostly people go for investments if they have large amounts because it involves lower risks and you can still make good money within a short period if the market is going positive, and if you keep holding for the long term, you will get pretty good returns since your investment is pretty high.

Just become a part for freedom of economy and benefit with store of value. If you included addiction word with it then it will going to wrong direction and mispresent for the users which means as like as casino or other addicted things bet or etc. Bitcoin is totally a public, decentralized power which is naturally encouraged to participate, But it is not involve with any addition, and nobody able to push people to buy or  invest btc, It is totally natural.

If you believe and know about btc and blockchain process then human always positively involve  any good and freedom part to give Security their wealth.

I second you on this!

Judging by my experience and what I see people lamenting about trading with respect to its margin/leveraged products, I conclude that they are not worth it. Let it make sense, how could almost everyone be losing in a scheme for ages? Doesn't that say something? It's a trap, indeed, that was carefully mechanised electronically to enrich the rich the more.

Investing is better, and when one has the opportunity to invest in a good asset like Bitcoin, it's priceless, especially if the person could invest at the right time.

[Bastketsrus]

I find your title a bit ridiculous, because Bitcoin investors don't actually need 'addiction', but rather rational decisions based on their knowledge of Bitcoin. If someone simply invests without understanding what they're buying, they're at a greater risk of losing money because they don't have a solid understanding to support their decisions.
Apart from that, consistency and the right investment strategy such as DCA are also needed by investors, so that they can build their portfolio in the long term... and their understanding of risk management, such as determining how much funds are worth investing and separating funds for emergencies, that is also something that is important for Bitcoin investors to understand.

I get your point. It’s not about addiction at all, it’s about understanding what you’re investing in. Without that, people panic and make bad decisions. DCA, consistency, and proper risk management matter way more if you’re thinking long term.

[ThemePen]

One of traps is that many people believe that they have to be active or trading all time in order to make money, yet it is trick that makes them make mistake and lose their coins in plans to get rich quick. As history shows, most safe method of winning is to just buy and hold in long term as almost no one has lost money by holding Bitcoin four years or more. It is hard to stop urge to trade fast, but Bitcoin rewards those who can remain calm and do nothing when others are panicking. It is truly challenge of discipline and not hard work.

Hodl, nothing else matters.

Holding is more profitable than trading that’s why newer bitcoin users are advised to hold for the long term than trading.Although many traders are making cool profits from trading,but if you should ask them the amount of money they’ve lost from trading it can’t be compared to their wins.Trading has a lot of learning processes which can be tough to slow learners,even if you’re a fast learner a long term learning process is expected of one to become perfect in respect to trading.Most bitcoin enthusiast consider trading bitcoin as gambling because of it’s worth,trade other cryptocurrencies because there are even for the short term which may suit their desire of making quick profit.Hodl your bitcoin and watch out how much profit you’ll earn in the long term.

I find your title a bit ridiculous, because Bitcoin investors don't actually need 'addiction',

You're right addition has absolutely nothing to do with this, and I feel that being addicted to bitcoin can be problematic where as you will always be in the market 24/7 monitoring the chart, and in the process of doing that you might be tempted to sell especially when the market is not favourable, so whatever thing we are doing need to be done moderately be it bitcoin investment or not because excessive doing of everything don't always end well. As a bitcoin investor you don't necessarily need to be addicted to it rather all you need is a complete knowledge about bitcoin investment, because being addicted without a complete knowledge is a waste.

[mirakal]

Looks like the only thing you will do in life is just to buy bitcoin and hold. In reality, one does not need the full addiction into motion, because that will only lead to being greedy and aggressive, when you're supposed to stay calm and patient when investing.

There are risks involved when investing in bitcoin, so one should only dare to invest if he's aware of it and he knows how to overcome it. Simply put, invest what you can afford to lose and invest only when you have spare money available. Otherwise, if you let your emotions control your mind to keep buying and hodling, without observing and analyzing the market well, your investment will only go to waste.

Know your investment well, know when the best timing to enter and exit the market. Addiction shouldn't be part of it.

[vanesha]

I keep it simple, I will invest in bitcoin when the price drops and will hold when the price rises or sell if I need to.

You’re truly an investor. There’s no need to be overly anxious about price movements or rush to sell everything. If we treat Bitcoin as an investment asset, there’s no such thing as selling it all. Sell some and keep some—this is investing, not gambling. With its potential and proven history as the leading digital asset today, Bitcoin certainly won’t collapse easily and will likely continue to grow, just as we’re seeing now.

[Peanutswar]

You dont need to get addicted in Bitcoin if you want to join in the crypto space. Even basic knowledge is applicable to have a bitcoin.

When it comes to any form of investment, you must need to know how it happens and not just want to buy; no one would like to let their investment go to waste. There's no investment that makes you a millionaire in just a single day all of this considered hard work and effort allotted to the things they really into it. Create a strategy, understand the market and analyze the possible price movement. Through your knowledge and skills you can lessen the risk to lose your money.

If you know how many Bitcoins have been lost to leverage trading and asset doubling schemes you will be shocked, all Bitcoin requesting from you is the holding patience, no one has never get wrecked holding Bitcoin for long term, it's the safest and easiest strategy, but the boiling blood in your veins always want to do something to get more Bitcoin faster, you will lose it all.

Hodl, nothing else matters.

If your goal is for long-term investment holding is the best way but other people are lazy about that they wanted to earn with the market volatility such as swing trades and flipping coins through market movement. Even in holding there must be a plan, when you want to enter price for along term or just a DCA and what price you would like to take profit.
