Has bitcoin ever failed to reward long term investors?

[Jubilee58]

I have actually read the history of bitcoin, and how investors have been rewarded. When you invest in bitcoin for a period of 5-10 years, this is really a long term strategy, and I have not in person, heard any one complaining of being at loss within this period of years.
I do hear people complaining of loosing money in bitcoin. But when you find out very well, you will understand that these people who looses money on bitcoin are actually traders who seek for short term profit or people who store their Bitcoin in an exchange, and are affected by hackers or exchange failure.

Bitcoin has a bull circle, and historically bitcoin experiences new all time high in every bull season, and this trend has never changed in the history of bitcoin.

There are people who have actually failed investing in bitcoin. These people are impatient investors, they look for quick money from bitcoin, and are those people who are actually impatient with their investment.

Every genue investment reward investors on the long run, and this is actually what bitcoin does, and this brought about my question if Bitcoin has ever failed in rewarding patient investors?

There are still some investments that rewards in the short-term, not all that rewards in the long term. The reason why we invest in bitcoin for the long term is as a result of volatility, since the price moves forward and backward. Had it been that the price of bitcoin only moves upwards do you think there would have been long term investors? NO. Since the invention of bitcoin, it has always rewarded those who are patient enough to hold on for a long term and it will continue to reward long term investors because it's value is meant to increase overtime. Just take a look at the price history of bitcoin from when it was created, check after every 4 or 5 years and see if the price had ever decreased from the previous price.

Bitcoin on its end could not have failed to deliver what you put into it like the asset it is but however it could also fail to deliver if you fail to deliver yourself, perhaps you make good investments and in the whole time you fail to care much about your security bitcoin will not protect your reward or profit for you, you will then probably not make a good thing out of it because you will loss them to scams, hacks, or even theft so you have to do all the jobs bitcoin is only going to multiply.

All patient investors are rewarded unless they make some kind of move that will put them at a disadvantage of not making it to the profiting state of the market. Bitcoin investment is an asset because historically it has rewarded those that hold on to it for the long term. Before your Bitcoin investment reaches maturity state in the market, there is always some kind of volatility it exhibits, it pushes for emotional instability by the investors into making decisions that could ruin their investment. As an investor, don’t fall for all this and remain more focused on reaching when the market will reward your efforts.

IMO bitcoin is one of them. Last two years was bear and last year we saw a bullish period and this year the price has been bearishing, people can be timing it that way and get lots of short time profit. The risk in doing that is just high and people can fail whorefully because nobody has that skill to be very perfect in analyzing bitcoin.

this is why long term ongoingly investing is the supreme thing to do. When people invest ongoingly they don't have to be analyzing anything they just keep their cool and be buying and keeping for several cycles and get rewarded for doing it.

The question is actually that does bitcoin as a whole actually fails to reward an investor who is actually on a long term hold and I say it depends on what the investor actually does with their bitcoin, how they actually protect their back up or wallet also plays a huge role and then the timing of entry into the market and also that period to exit the market but usually a long term hold actually reduces the risk involve with this holding, because the little fluctuations will have impacts on the price but not long term holders because future movement covers up for this kind of loss.

The only case scenario where you see an investor who actually holds for long is actually at loss is when he actually gets his wallet compromised through either poor back up procedure or other means which might have exposed to the seed phrase or key to scammers. But aside this is a long term bitcoin investor for even as a low as a four years ends with profit

[Ambatman]

You know from an angle there might be someone that have lost
Especially from Nigeria
Where the impact of inflation is stronger than the US
A person that bought and held just dollar 2021
Would be doing well then someone that bought Bitcoin 2021
Especially around the top of $60K.

Historically, Bitcoin never fail anybody wey get patience. Every person wey hold for 4 years and above don smile at the end, no single exception for Bitcoin history. The halving cycle dey always do im work, bull season dey always come, and new all time high dey always show face.
The people wey dey lose money? Look am well well. Na traders wey dey find quick money, panic sellers wey sell for loss when market crash, and people wey keep their Bitcoin for exchange instead of their own wallet. Na impatience and carelessness kill them not Bitcoin.
Real talk; the enemy no be Bitcoin. Na human psychology be the problem.
One thing to add sha, past performance no be 100% guarantee for future. But as things stand, anybody wey hold Bitcoin long term and keep im own keys never regret am for history.

Bitcoin has done well giving out massive profits to those who remained invested into it for the long-term, although this is not a guarantee for future profitability in bitcoin as our investment into bitcoin has no guarantee and the price is pretty high that we cannot get those high multipliers experienced in the past in recent times.

I do hear people complaining of loosing money in bitcoin. But when you find out very well, you will understand that these people who looses money on bitcoin are actually traders who seek for short term profit or people who store their Bitcoin in an exchange, and are affected by hackers or exchange failure.

Most of them are those who neglected the good discipline of investing into bitcoin with your discretionary income so that you would not be under undue pressure to sell when the need arises for that fund you invested into bitcoin and bitcoin being volatile has its price below your entry point and you sell at loss and start calling bitcoin a scam. Some people actually make profit in the short-term but it is no where to be compared with someone who remained in bitcoin for long, judging from the price history.

So far it has proved to be quite a profitable investment prospect and historically has rewarded long-term investors.

[Promocodeudo]

With the history we have on ground, Bitcoin has always maintained what it used to be on a long-term, from the day the innovation came to reality, the price has not remained the same, although it has faced many bad times but not bad time per say also a good time for knvetsors that understands it.
When long-term is been mentioned in Bitcoin investment some person take it for granted because they think that since it's been said that nothing is guaranteed, it means they shouldn't be expecting anything in the future but they failed to do their findings very well or go back to the history to know how Bitcoin has been performing till now, if we should even look at where Bitcoin started, will anyone say that Bitcoin has not been performing very well, Bitcoin as futuristic as it is, has always treated investors that see patients as a virtue well in the future by rewarding their perseverance and faith in the system.

[SatoPrincess]

Bitcoin is always profitable in the long term but that depends on what your long term is. If your long term is 6 months - 1 year, you may not see significant returns on your investment. A more sustainable approach would be to hodl for 3-5 years, and if you aren’t able to hodl longer than that, you can sell at different ATHs in that timeframe.

Well, the thing is that in the beginning, bitcoin investment rewarded even the impatient in the short term, I can imagine a situation where someone buys a lot of bitcoin at the price of $2 each and by the next day in the evening, the price is already above $10 and climbing, I think this was the time alot of people got spoilt by bitcoin and today that things have significantly changed, some people are finding it hard to cope with how long one has to wait after investing to be profitable in their investment.

And one thing I have personally found out is that the more bitcoin continues to succeed and go mainstream and it continues to gain value, the more longer those investing in it will have to wait in the coming future to be profitable, and think this is when some altcoins are going to start moving well because by then, not every one will be willing to invest in bitcoin and have to wait more than 20 years to make profit.

Traders are not the only people who lose money in Bitcoin. Bitcoin investors who lack a well-structured plan lose money later on. Trading and investment are both risky. Folks will lose money if they do not follow the right instructions in trading or investing. In Bitcoin investment, some things need to be put in place before aiming for the long term. If you neglect those things, you will tamper with your investment, which will cause you to lose it. By now, most people in the forum should know about emergency funds, reserve funds, and a stable income source for consistent investment in the long term.

Bitcoin has never failed to reward long term investors, any body that fails in Bitcoin while observing a long term investment plan, caused the failure himself, there is no one to blamed. Check the history price of Bitcoin, from when it was created until today, and we can tell if Bitcoin failed or the investors didn't understand how the patterns flow.

We have short term investors that can attest to Bitcoin rewards, it isn't compulsory to be long term, there are also gains from short term investment, the most important aspect is to learn the investment, keep it the right way and only have to buy low and sell high.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

This is a question that history already answered, someone that is still asking whether Bitcoin actually rewarded old or patient investors, let the person visit the price history of Bitcoin from previous years and then think about people who bought in those times and held their coins till now, they have made a lot of profit.

[Creeper0]

The example is right in front of us. If we look at the price chart of each cycle, we will be able to get an easy answer. If we think about 10 years, then the answer will be easier. We can get the answer to such a question from the price chart of Bitcoin.

Now, let's leave those who still express doubts about the long-term future of Bitcoin and have a negative attitude towards Bitcoin investment. Those who have not been able to learn from Bitcoin's 15-year past, they will not be able to in the future either.
