Bitcoin Investing: Help me avoid mistakes and keep up with the market

[edwingbit]

I am completely new to the Bitcoin forum. I have got some basic ideas about Bitcoin from various social media. According to my knowledge, if you can wait patiently and wait for a long time to keep up with the market fluctuations by investing in Bitcoin, then I think it will be possible to earn a good amount of profit from it in the future.

However, I am still completely new to this subject, so I am interested in gaining more detailed and accurate knowledge about Bitcoin from experienced and seniors. I will benefit a lot if I get your valuable advice, especially about investment strategies and long-term investments. All of you will cooperate with me and help me move forward on the right path by sharing your experience and knowledge.

Thank you.

The first advice I will give you since you are focused on price is: don't be too afraid of the price drop in BTC, it's all just an illusion, look at a few days ago the value was below $70,000 & now BTC is back again stronger & is above $70,000. To strengthen your resolve to hold onto your BTC, you should read a lot of references about BTC, such as its limited supply & its ever-increasing adoption rate since its initial launch.

Bitcoin investment is not only about the long term profits to gain, but most times how you go about securing your Bitcoin and the approach you take for it because there are certain steps you would take, you will learn a heartbreaking lesson from your long term Bitcoin investment.

Those steps are having your Bitcoin in a crypto exchange, not storing your seed phrase in a safe place, investing more than you can afford to lose, not having a job but depending on Bitcoin investment for survival, and revealing your Bitcoin holdings to strangers or social media can jeopardize your long-term hodling of Bitcoin.

However, avoiding the steps above, can make your plan for long term investment in Bitcoin a successful one without issues

DCA. This is a pattern or method that is still good to use as a long-term investment strategy. DCA is intended to make it easier for everyone to invest without paying attention to the Bitcoin price position but focusing on how financially capable they are at any time on a regular basis. If in 1 month or 3 weeks the funds remain at $300 or more, then with DCA only focus on that budget. If the buying position is low, then you will get more Bitcoin than at the high buying price.

Here are few advices that I can give you.

1. Bitcoin past history always repeat or rhymes, find a bitcoin chart and zoom out, you will see that since Bitcoin was born it has always do very well with time.

2. With Bitcoin, only the patient dog eats the fattest bones, don't be in hurry for profits, the time will come when the time is right.

3. I hope you have a job or your own source of income? Beginners who got fed up with Bitcoin investment are always those who invest money that are meant for other things, invest only some percentage from what you are making, weekly or monthly.

4. Read the third advice again, Bitcoin investment is not a short way to make money, only holders makes the best returns, you will need some patience and that's why buying some Bitcoin weekly or monthly depending on how much you can afford is best.




There are things you need to know before buying your first Bitcoin.
There are right and wrong Bitcoin wallets out there, I don't want to complicate things for you.

If you have no money, I suggest you go for Electrum wallet or Unstoppable wallet.

Warning ⚠️

Keep your recovery seed safe (12 words or 24 words ).
This is the key to your Bitcoin, if lost or seen by others, they will drain your wallet.
Keep them offline, away from cloud storage or any devices using the internet.
I suggest you write them down on a steel using sharp object or in a book, do not let another eyes that's not your set on those words.

Finally, always come back on this forum for more guidance.

Yes, it is true that investing is long-term and if a person is able to hold their holdings for a long time, like 3 to 4 cycles, then their chances of making a profit are much higher. So, to start investing, all you need is basic knowledge about Bitcoin, a source of discretionary income, and faith in Bitcoin. If you have these three things, then you can start investing and you can learn a lot after starting investing.

I'm sorry to say, but big profits aren't guaranteed, but you'll definitely profit in the long term. Social media can be a bit hyperbolic, and you know what they expect from their viewers. Bitcoin isn't a passive "big profit" scheme. However, Bitcoin won't disappoint you, especially if you have something to trade.
