How our mindset plays a big role in Bitcoin investment

[Johnlomape]

In Bitcoin investments we know that DCA, proper planning and basic knowledge is important, but what we don't talk more about is having the right mindset. Because the way we think and react to the market also determines if we will be truly profitable in the long run. Bitcoin is very volatile so the market will always move up and down,  it is our  mindset that  determines whether we stay calm or make rushed decisions. you might have the best strategy or plan but if you are person who allows emotions to over ride them then everything they plan, knowledge they have will be useless.

The DCA strategy na good one wey we need to look at for people wey wan really invest for Bitcoin gradually so that they no go out all their money inside Bitcoin when the price fit go up or down. This one na critical time  wey we need to use our head to invest wisely for the Bitcoin matter because we know say the price of Bitcoin fit move anyhow and e fit benefits us for people we fit dey think say they we tajw small profit first so that they fit dey hold the remaining profits for their balance.

Yes the market dey volatile but e no really dey volatile like before wey we dey see how market dey move very fast to dey go up.
Now the market no really dey move like that and people wey wan invest for Bitcoin need to calm down and study when go be their best time to buy Bitcoin so they no go regret why they put money to buy Bitcoin when yhe price still dey up dey range any how.

When someone starts investing based on theoretical knowledge, their decisions may be emotional, but when someone starts investing in small amounts, they can actually see the market fluctuations and learn from their mistakes. Theoretical knowledge is necessary, but theoretical knowledge alone does not complete one's learning. And practice and experience teach an investor in practice. And when someone actually starts a small family and practices from it, then he gets a real lesson on how to control his emotions in the market fluctuations. In long-term investing, controlling his emotions in the market fluctuations is a challenge for many. Therefore, the basis of long-term success is knowledge, right strategy and mental control.

We all know that without our mindset there's no way on earth we could achieve what we planned on achieving. When applying DCA method on Bitcoin investment, without consistency we can not achieve a suitable amount of coin on our portfolio which is why our mindset and consistency is the real thing to have before we consider to go into investments.

Mindset has a very big role to play in Bitcoin investment, so many persons that encounter some difficulties is because their mindset limited them , but having a right mindset makes one to be informed , patient,disciplined, it makes you be in check that enables you to control your emotions towards your journey , investment journey requires a stable mindset in other to achieve your goal.

That's right, there are so many people who don't have the right mindset towards Bitcoin investment and at the end they couldn't achieve anything from it. Some end up buying Bitcoin at first but because they are not consistent and they also do not have the right mindset towards it makes them sell at loss when Bitcoin dip. Some of them don't even have emergency funds either and they also invest into Bitcoin with money for their survival, which is not appropriate.

I think the mindset of every investor depends on the kind of orientation he or she got during their onboarding process or journey, what is or was the motive of investing in bitcoin. The kind of motivations and informations that  are available to a newbie helps form his mindset. So in order to have the right mindset you have to have the right orientation and right mentors or valid informations to help you gain The knowledge and experience to form your own mindset.

The reason why some people end up selling their coins and backing out of bitcoin investment is because they don't have the mental fortitude for it, this is to tell you how important our mindset is when It comes to bitcoin investment. A lot of people think that market psychology is only for traders but that's not really true, an investor should be mentally ready to face the hurdles that comes with investing in bitcoin. Our mindset plays a very important aspect when it comes to investing in bitcoin. This is why emotional investors will always lose

[Cityhunter34]

When you are engaging in anything you don't have to put profit in the front even though we want to make money from it but we should try as much as possible to go with the right mindset. Honestly, I have found out that when you are eager to get rich quick through something it will definitely turn against you because all your mindset will just be on how to get the money and quit, by then you are not longer in control of yourself you just want the money quickly.

So it's very essential for us to always understand that Bitcoin investment is not a get rich overnight so for you to be able make it through in Bitcoin is by discipline yourself and invest what you can afford to lose.

[Out of mind]

In the case of Bitcoin investment, we must have the right decision and plan. If our mindset is positive, then our investment will definitely be successful. To invest in Bitcoin, we need to have a good investment strategy at the beginning and then a plan for the long term. We know that investing for a short period of time will not lead us to success at all, that is why long-term planning is important. We must have positive thoughts.
Many times, people are very disappointed with their thoughts, which keeps them away from investing. During investment, we have to play the right role in every case, but we can focus on investing. When the DCA method is used in investment, it will be risk-free and there will be no possibility of our losses in the future. There are many people who do not invest due to fear of losses, but those who know how to take risks are successful in the future, so if we want to invest in Bitcoin, we must take risks. We need to gain enough experience about the Bitcoin market and knowing that there will be instability in the market, we should invest later on carefully considering all the issues.

Our mindset plays one of biggest role in our profitability in Bitcoin Investment more than strategy. Bitcoin volatile always test it users, one time is pumping and the other time its dipping. So there's no stability in bitcoin. You can have a good plan but it can become useless when fear takes over during market fluctuations. When the price is pumping greed will take over them and they start taking small amounts of profit, till they released that they have taken a large chunk of over holdings. likewise when price is also dropping fear will allow some people to take their full money out. So lack of good mindset makes investors to make wrong decisions. When investing in Bitcoin you must be emotionally prepared, good planning, and have some basic knowledge in what you doing.

Surely OP you seem to be in point in everything you said.. But then again about control, you see most time we think that this emotion is something that we can control and truth be told we just can't... Let me site an example, for example if you carelessly lose a huge sum of money, automatically you get angry with yourself, you didn't control that anger or make it to come, it just came as a response to that situation.. The only thing we can surely do is to manage this emotion so that it wouldn't influence us into making mistakes that you can be quite difficult to come back from(like what happened in the case if your friend)... And just as we learn to mange our emotions, we should also try to also build our understanding about Bitcoin, coz why most folks rush to sell their Bitcoin during bear market is not solely because of emotions, but coz of their little/ or no understand about how Bitcoin truly works...

[PremiumcryptoHub]

I would say that your friend had the qualities of a trader, otherwise a high-ranking investor or a person who knows the basic knowledge of Bitcoin would never sell Bitcoin emotionally, that is my opinion. However, one thing is that mentality is not just an additional thing, it helps everyone to keep their investment goals in order, to stick to the plan and to invest with the right thoughts. Besides it is necessary to always train our mind without getting upset by any fall, so to my knowledge maybe if there is a sudden correction in the BTC market, the mind will not melt and there will be no desire to sell.

Therefore the OP, like your friend who panicked and sold, may be regretting it even if the price of Bitcoin increases during this war, because he didn't get enough return from his investment.

Starting a business investment must come with setting out your goals and telling yourself that until your goals are meant you are not given up, I guess that some people start investing in Bitcoin without certain out goals maybe they saw it as something that every other person around them is doing or even talk about and they jump in without a concrete goals in mind, they become open to do whatever their mindset tells them without a second thought since there was no initial set out goals their minds are being controlled by market performance and sentiment other than what is being controlled by their supposed set out goals, this is one mistake I can say that people does, starting something without a deep rooted goals to be achieved.

It is true that to manage long-term investments properly, it is very important for the investor to have a positive mentality, along with having the right knowledge about investments, and consistency in investment and discretionary money‌ are very important. When an investor consistently buy Bitcoin with a long-term plan and follows the right rules, and during market volatility, he can confidently buy Bitcoin as much as he can and patiently hold it for a good time, this reduces investment risk and can expect long-term profits from Bitcoin.

It is true that the DCA method is best for buy। Bitcoin. Bitcoin can be purchased very easily, there is no additional investment risk, so you can purchase small amounts of Bitcoin very easily while maintaining consistency, so there is no need to invest a large amount of money, so there is no additional mental stress on yourself, you can purchase Bitcoin consistently by following the correct rules.

Your mindset should be built and fixed on the long term in other to achieve a long term goal.A price decline shouldn’t trigger you to sell at loss,or weren’t you aware that the market isn’t stable?there would always be a season where the price would drop and increase,so those weak minded investors are categorized as those set of investors that sell at loss due to the price decline of bitcoin.So you’re absolutely right,mindset plays a role in bitcoin investment,it’s better you build your mindset to remain focused on bitcoin investment.

Even before starting Bitcoin accumulation journey, mindset has made people not to buy Bitcoin and some because of mindset didn't start when they're supposed to. It is mindset that make some investor to become traders and a mind change can likewise make a trader an investor. Even when deciding the strategy to use, mindset make people to tirelessly waiting for the dip. Indeed mindset plays a major role in Bitcoin journey.

Yeah that’s true some have the mindset that Bitcoin is too expensive for them to start fueling their procrastination with it . Having such mindset will make them relax like they are doing the right thing ( thinking they don’t have enough money to start ).

Not knowing that with just discretionary income they are good to go.  Aslong they have enough money left after taken care of their expenses,  so those left over is enough for one to start investing nothing too small all that matters is being consistent with it .

I agree with you. In fact, controlling emotions is the most important thing in long-term investment. There are many rich people who invest but they sell after a few days when they see the price of Bitcoin decreasing. They usually have no problem holding Bitcoin for years. But even then, they cannot control themselves when they see the price decreasing. There is no financial problem here. They are basically mentally unstable people who cannot control themselves. They think that the price is decreasing, which means that the price will not increase. After investing in Bitcoin, they only worry about how much the price will increase. They cannot accept the fact that the price decreases is  normal  in Bitcoin. So they start making decisions based on emotions like panic selling.

[Jasmyne]

With what you’ve said and with what have known about bitcoin, having the right mindset is very important.
When investing in bitcoin, long term should be the goal because long term will yield higher return in the future. Due to the volatility of bitcoin, there will definitely be a bull and dip in the market, which is very certain, so getting discouraged along the line due to dip, will cause a loss and one might end up regretting in the future because there will definitely be a rise in bitcoin.
Long term should always be the goal and one should be disciplined enough to achieve that goal.

[EarnOnVictor]

Many people lose not because they lack knowledge, but because they can’t control emotions like fear or greed.

I know you have your reason(s) for including greed here, but Bitcoin is not like other assets, and by virtue, in its investment, greed is not often mentioned because it's not a basis, unless you are mistaking it for trading or you are a trader yourself thinking you are a Bitcoin investor. Mind you, it's not only those who trade spot/future/margin markets that are Bitcoin traders.

Bitcoin could be wrongly bought at a price (which hurts), but eventually, it will go higher than the price (sooner or later), and you will be in profits. It could also be under-bought or over-bought, which are what hurt people if the reality is not appraising the decision. You can buy your Bitcoin and forget it, and I am sure that it will yield a very comfortable profit one day. This is not greed, but a plan/goal.

Most people wey Dey enter crypto space now no Dey get better orientation before entering, most of them are just always misguided by the people that introduce them to it. Some people na only profits na him dem Dey tell people about, dem Dey always talk say as long as u invest in bitcoin, u no fit lose money, dem Dey always talk good things about bitcoin just because say dem want make d person invest in bitcoin, and at the end if d person invest and him money start to Dey drop, dem go just panic and will be selling at loss.

If u wan introduce anyone to bitcoin investment, u no need hide anything from d person, u suppose allow them know d risk wey Dey bitcoin investment, so that dem go do prepare for am keep, and if e come Dey happen, them go know say na part of things wey u tell them say e fit happen be that.

When investing in an asset like bitcoin investors is meant to understand that they are dealing with a volatile asset which goes dip and also goes up so in such case the hope of making profit is hodling for long though there is also no guarantee that we will even profit even though an investor was able to hodl for long. When there is a dip there is no gain selling so they wont sell in lost instead they should just hodl because what goes down can also go up but for not regretting in a long time if we don't make any profit is to invest in bitcoin with our discretionary income because we are not sure of gaining.
