Are we all talk?

[Furball808]

The real ones know that the best time to buy bitcoin is when it is cheap and not when it is at its peak. Because of this there are people who go against the masses and instead buy even when the market is glaringly red. But are we all just talk? I think some people are actually quite nervous when the market starts declining no matter what they say since they overthink whether bitcoin's starting to crash. If bitcoin reached $10k, there will be a huge chunk of investors that will not buy but instead will start to get scared.

But know that at this point where a lot of people had already anticipated a bear market, the price being around $70k is not that abnormal. If anything, I am wishing for it to drop some more so I can buy more sats.

I don't think there's anything to be scared of if you have a good investment plan or strategy at play. Most investors use the dollar cost Average strategy to invest in the market, so regardless of red or green, you still have to follow your plan and accumulate bitcoin.. waiting for a dip isn't a bad option but it's no longer ideal. The market can suddenly move in the upward direction while you still are anticipating the deepest of dip( $10k don't be ridiculous.. but there's no impossibility in the market.. if such case arises, definitely the fear index would rise and many investors would panic sell their holdings. Not that this kind of thing would happen in a day, so there would still be hope for a bullish trend..

Ignore the outside noise, and stack your bitcoins. There will always be weak hands in the market who will fold at every dip. Those who know better (long term hodlers) take advantage of dips to buy what they can afford. Ar this point in my bitcoin journey, the market doesn’t matter to me I just want to stack up to 1 bitcoin.

The panic is because they're looking at a squiggly line on a chart and thinking it's a tech stock. They have no concept of the underlying mechanics. If the price drops to $10k but the hashrate is stable or even climbing, what has 'crashed'?

Nothing. The network is operating exactly as designed.
The security model is intact. Blocks are still being produced every 10 minutes.

Their fear is a user error; they've conflated 'price' with 'network health'. A real problem would be a catastrophic drop in hashrate that slows block production to a crawl, or a bug in the consensus code. That would be a reason for me to be 'scared'.

Leveraged positions getting liquidated isn't a problem.
Its just the system cleansing itself of weak hands. People are scared because they haven't done the work. They don't run a node, they don't watch the mempool, they don't understand what proof-of-work actually secures.

So when the price gets volatile, their only metric for success is gone, and they panic.

Don't loud this so you don't make more enemies among those who are heavily invested in Bitcoin but have seen their investment deplete over 50%. I actually share in your thoughts even though it sound a little selfish but a cheaper Bitcoin is to my advantage as I have not even met 50% of my targets which means this drop in price is another opportunity that Bitcoin offered me and people in my shoes to get it cheaper. Those of us in that category are the least bothered by the drop in price.

I think some people are actually quite nervous when the market starts declining no matter what they say since they overthink whether bitcoin's starting to crash. If bitcoin reached $10k, there will be a huge chunk of investors that will not buy but instead will start to get scared.

Depending on their stance on investing in bitcoin, whether in times of decline they will be happy to buy more or nervous? Because there are still people who want to wait for prices to fall, after going down they become doubtful about the expected decline, then when it goes up they buy because of FOMO, people like this still exist and they are still not aware of market cycles.

Buy more coins, buying the DCA way is much better for us.

[Porfirii]

Last week's fall in the price has been quite abrupt, so it is understandable that people get nervous if part of their capital is at stake. But while this is how people who have too much to lose reacts, for example Binance will be converting their SAFU Fund $1 billion stablecoin reserves into Bitcoin reserves within 30 days, so the discount we're talking about is very timely and clearly beneficial to them.

That is a normal reaction of a person if the market suddenly drops a lot and the price nosedives. We don't want that to be honest and we want the price of Bitcoin to be more expensive because that's the advantage of buyers who'd done that earlier. But if the price gets lower, why not? we can only react and do it or not.

Well, good luck to all of us, holders and waiting for more dips. Just do your plans and buy when you're able to.

It depends on their preparation before starting from finance to knowledge about Bitcoin, the market and trading as well. If they don't have good preparation, it's normal to see how they response very emotionally in this market, and it's the same with both newbies and experienced people.

That's the reason we have this classic cheat chart from Wall street.

If people are either new in this market or don't have knowledge, experience, and good strategies, they will lose their control in this market very easily when the market is volatile. Emotion, psychology and actions will all be affected very severely in most chaotic times in the market.

Especially if they began with not good financial management, like using all money for investment, bet that investment will bring profit consistently so that they can withdraw profit weekly or monthly to use, or most severely when they leverage from initial capital that will put them under loan expiration or worse market liquidations.

We are all talk. Bitcointalk. 

Bitcoin has always been volatile, this is what scares investors.
But in the end it has always reached new highs after the scary red times.

Trust in the cycle.

[ruykeri]

Finding the best price on Bitcoin is absolutely foolish. You are saying that if the price drops further, then you will buy. But it is an unpredictable thing. No one can accurately predict when the price will be how. Today 70k seems like a cheap, tomorrow 50k seems like Cheap and 70k will be  peak. Instead of looking for a dip, create a system that works at any price. You will not be stuck on timing. Showing courage in the dip means creating a system in advance so that when the dip comes, you are not afraid. Regular DCA, back-up funds, and staying within the discretionary budget will be the best way of bitcoin accumulation.

[crwth]

Personally, I would like to get the best deal, and with the current trend, it seems like it could still go even lower.

I do think there is still a chance it will go lower, given the big resistance that stops BTC at $85k. I think it would be hard to recover at the moment. Everything has a reason for its investments, but it's better to check your own and have the right budget in case something happens. Being ready is more important and then buy when the right opportunity comes.

Better to see it long term.

[Bluedrem]

This is the reality. We analyze the market and see that when Bitcoin shows an upward trend, most investors are actually attracted to Bitcoin. Then they start looking for profit in Bitcoin. But when Bitcoin shows a downward trend, they refrain from buying Bitcoin for unknown reasons. Maybe they are afraid of Bitcoin, i.e. they do not believe in Bitcoin or they wait for the price to fall further but in the end they cannot buy at the lower price. When the market turns around and the price starts increasing, they buy. This is a harsh reality.

Not that this kind of thing would happen in a day, so there would still be hope for a bullish trend..

Simply the perfect answer that made sense in every way.
To use a simple DCA strategy of investment wouldn't care if Bitcoin is bullish or bearish. It wouldn't care what the Feds think tonight or decide on tomorrow. You as an investor only need be concerned about your accumulation process and safety of asset and more suitable systems to employ to your advantage.

That's why Bitcoin is decentralized and under one's control. Use it well and reap success. Use it badly and lose it to scammers or fraud or confiscated of suspected laundering or for other worse reasons that could easily befall a careless and ignorant investor without a proper knowledge and direction in the crypto currencies market space.

Don't think too much and think too much, if you want to buy it, do it, avoid people who keep talking about FUD, because that will make you afraid and more doubtful about a price drop, which in the end will result in you not buying at all, we don't know where the price of Bitcoin is, no one will ever know about it, so make a purchase in a way that you believe suits you, that will be very good in the journey of investing in Bitcoin, as long as you take into account that Bitcoin already has a low price, whatever it is, then make a purchase.

The more it goes down the better to buy because bitcoin will return to the top again and again every cycle, if bitcoin is $10k like you said I will sell my assets in another one and keep it all in bitcoin, but I think a golden opportunity like that is unlikely to happen again, so calculate realistically.

[aoluain]

I really dont think the market would let Bitcoins price drop as far as $10k, I would expect
strong buying pressure well before that.

We have all seen those threads where some people said if they had known about Bitcoin
in pre 2013 as an example, they would have sold everything to buy Bitcoin - eh no they
wouldnt because its probably the same ones that get spooked at any little down turn.

I would say there are some of us who are holding off buying just for the moment in order
to get it just a little cheaper because the signs are kind of there that the market is going bearish ...

I have talked to a friend and he recons from his chart analysis that there could be a liw
of around $55k. If it goes that low I will be doing some extra buying for sure and thats not
just talk!

[Smartprofit]

I plan to gradually buy Bitcoin throughout 2026. 🙋 The price will likely be around $50,000 - $70,000. I'm already set on that price for Bitcoin.

However, I'm not certain that the worst-case scenario won't come to pass. I'm very concerned about the situation with Bitcoin miners. Miners secure the Bitcoin network. Therefore, if the price of the world's leading cryptocurrency falls below the cost of its production, miners will stop securing the Bitcoin network. As a result, successful 51% attacks can be predicted. We've seen these attacks repeatedly against other cryptocurrencies using the PoW consensus algorithm. Other negative scenarios are also possible...

At the same time, I continue to believe in a positive future for Bitcoin. When you lack knowledge about the future, you substitute faith for it. There's nothing else to do. Therefore, I will believe that the Bitcoin situation will stabilize in 2027.💁

so we are assuming a situation where you are looking for a DIP just so you ca buy more sats of bitcoin, you eventually see the DIP and you are able to buy more bitcoin and then another comes in still looking for more DIP before they can also buy, what do you think will be the end of that? more DIP and no BULL which will still frustrate you in the long run. the best way to remain invested is to buy at the different market condition buying at the and the bull and in the process building your portfolio into something that is remarkable in the long run.

What are the odds of bitcoin getting to $10k? I think Bitcoin has gone behind that threshold, and would not experience such low even during the bearish season.  It is speculated that Bitcoin's price could see a $60k-$70k drop back whi h is not verified as we all wait for its movements.

It would actually give room for more buyers if we see such price and maybe a little force sell from micro investors which would give Bitcoin's price more push back and creates opportunity for more massive buy orders,  so now is a time for preparation rather than procrastination.

I understand you more is true that the real ones knows the best time to purchase their bitcoin when it is cheap, is that time it will favour them, when they bought it at the lowest price they can sell it at the higher price. when the bitcoin price is high while sometimes the price of bitcoin falls and sometimes it rises those who know better long-term holders take advantage of dips to buy what they can afford in my opinion you still have to follow your plan and accumulate bitcoin.
