Does bitcoin reward investors based on amount purchased or based on patience?

[Just Say]

You should know that BTC itself does not reward investors based on the amount of purchases or the amount of Bitcoin in the portfolio, but rather rewards users through the mining process. Also it is true that patience and amount are the main things that can bring the desired results to investors of this currency, so both of these are important because if your portfolio shows no coiner, then even being patient will not achieve the desired yield. Anyway OP, the two people you saw arguing about Bitcoin rewards were probably right because both of the things they mentioned are necessary for investing. In fact, to my knowledge if someone has a portfolio full of Bitcoin and is patient for a long time, maybe their accumulated BTC will pay them compound interest based on the volatility of the market.

Bitcoin does not majorly reward short term investors, and those who made it big today in the bitcoin market was as a result of patience. There are those who even bought fractions of bitcoin, but long term holding has yielded a significant result and profit.

Both are right and I am sure both of them will also agree with each other because the first one who said having large capital invested in BTC could make your huge profit, must also agree to the fact that you have to hold it for some long time, otherwise if you have invested small capital, you can't make a lot of profit in compared to the other one, even if you hold it for the same time (In long term).

I agree that people with some fractions of BTC made a huge profit because they held for some time, but they could have made more profit if their capital were huge.

In my POV, those who hold for the long term would make more profit and I completely agree with your point of view but the situation could vary.

[Dunamisx]

I think both are interesting with respect to what we stand to gain from bitcoin investments, the amount invested as well as the time or duration it takes for the maturity, this is why many will tell you that they will have to hold their assets until the bull run before they can release for selling it, as they know that by then they would have been in profit already.

[suzanne5223]

Actually, Bitcoin rewards investors based on the knowledge they had about its potential multiplied by the amount of BTC they purchased, and the patience to hold it for the long term.
If you have the needed patience but only purchase a small fraction of BTC, you may not get the desired result in this current market, but if you purchase a good portion of BTC and have the patience to hold it at least 5 years you'll get a desired result for helding through halving effect maket when BTC always make a new ATH price.

What do you mean by "Bitcoin reward system"? There is no such thing, please don't make it sound like Bitcoin a ponzi scheme or a HYIP because some people already think it is, so it's better that we don't use terms to make things more confusing for those who are new learners. There is no reward system in Bitcoin, you basically buy some Bitcoin, hold them for whatever amount of time you want, and then sell them and get some profit on your bought account because the price has gone up, and that isn't a rewarding system or anything like that, it's an investment that gets you profits.

Now, coming back to the original discussion. I don't know why would people argue on such a thing when there is no point. Your profits on your Bitcoin investment would depend on both the amount you have invested and the time you held onto the assets, it's not like one thing can defeat the other. If you buy a small amount and sell it after four years, you will get good profits, but if you buy a large amount and sell it even quicker, you can still get the same amount of profit, which means that if you invest a higher amount and hold longer, you will get better rewards, because both of these things contribute in the process.

There is a Bitcoin reward system but it is not what @OP believe.  The Bitcoin reward system is through mining Bitcoin blocks.  So the ones who enjoy the benefit of the Bitcoin reward system are miners.  I agree that in terms of investment, the phrase, Bitcoin reward system should not be used; instead, profit should be used when we are talking about Bitcoin trading.

Now, coming back to the original discussion. I don't know why would people argue on such a thing when there is no point.

Yeah, I agree that these two, amount of purchase and patience compliment each other when it comes to Bitcoin investment profit.

[Cryptomultiplier]

Bitcoin has the potential to level the plain field between the rich and the poor in the society, in the sense that it rewards patience much more than it does as compared to the amount an investor used for initial purchase.

The time factor involved in Bitcoin investment can make one wealthy as compared to when one enters the market and this means that patience is a great multiplier with Bitcoin investment no matter the strategy of investment one chooses to adopt.

Holding and accumulating Bitcoin also, over a decade can make one great wealth as compared to lump sum strategy for five years, mathematically, because of the value Bitcoin holds in the market.

[Mate2237]

Both are very important factor when talking about Bitcoin investment, but patience is to me the most important factor because Bitcoin as we know is a long term investment asset. So keeping Bitcoin on the long run which will require patience is vital. Patience rewards over time unlike buying a huge amount. When trying to peak between the two one has to weigh in and look at the possible merits and demerits of the two .


Buying in large capital which has to do with the amount to me is more of a short term plan, one can decide to buy large and just wait for a slit change in price and decides to sell when the price is going in the positive direction. So it all depends on the individual involved and what the persons really wants but one thing that is certain is that both patience and amount of purchase is very rewarding in their ways.

I have decided to bring this very topic here, because I overheard two people arguing about bitcoin reward system, one was saying the amount of bitcoin in your portfolio determines your profit, and the other person was emphasizing on patience as a reward factor. So I would love us here to make our various contributions, and make a glaring classification based on this. However, in my own opinion, i feel patience is the main thing that can give bitcoin investors their desired result.

They are both right. What you hold will determine how much profit you will make after holding it for a long period or time. What you hold should be measured by the volume of Bitcoin and not the current value, and you need to have patience and hold it for long before you can make a good profit out of it. Those who are patient, if they don't own any Bitcoin, cannot be accounting for any profit, while those who hold it and are not patient, their profit won't also be that much, so you need both patience and how much you can acquire if you desire a large profit.

[Delaforetnoire]

When a user is able to balance both buying and patience, there is a good chance of making solid profit. Those who invested in bitcoin and stayed patient have gained the most over time. In the end, it is the people who can manage both wisely that come out with better results.

In any asset investment both  your portfolio size and the duration of holding onto it are twin and necessary for huge returns, even where you etch in a huge portfolio size of let say about 80% and you couldn't be patiently enough for it to yield within the required period for profit making as it's with bitcoin in a four year cycle, you wouldn't make that much profit compared to another investor with a 40% investment portfolio size but got patient holding through the cycle to the bulls, reaching new ATHs

[Agbamoni]

The amount purchased first is very important. Bitcoin has passed the time where an investment of a small amount will bring about a huge profit in Bitcoin after a bull run. The time we are in, every amount you invest in Bitcoin matters a lot. The higher the amount invested, the higher your return will be. Dont expect those big swings to happen very often with Bitcoin because volatilityhas decreased compared to the past. So, both patience and huge portfolio matters a lot in getting a reward from Bitcoin.

[uneng]

If we were 10 years ago, I would say only patience was enough, even if you didn't want to invest any money from your pocket, as you could simply claim from faucets and make decent profit thinking on the ATHs which came on the following years.

However, nowadays the scenario is different. The potential profit to be made on each cycle isn't the same from 10 years ago and before. If you want to make considerable profit, only patience isn't enough. You will need to purchase a decent amount of satoshis too.

[Jasmyne]

In my own opinion I will say bitcoin rewards based on the amount purchased and base on patience too.
My reason is because the higher you invest, the higher your return will be, the more patience you have to wait for a longer time, the higher your return. Two persons that invested in bitcoin with different amounts for a particular period of time won’t get same return, obviously the higher amount get the highest return, same goes to a short and long term investor.

[Razmirraz]

In fact, Bitcoin rewards investors who show patience more than just the amount purchased. While buying Bitcoin in large quantities can potentially yield greater profits when the price rises, without patience, you risk losing that capital when the price drops drastically. The investment journeys of several major investors show that those who hold assets for the long term often reap the greatest rewards due to appreciation in value because they have successfully weathered the various downturns that occur in the market.

In my opinion, patience is key in Bitcoin investment because Bitcoin value is very volatile. Patience allows investors to avoid panic selling when the price is falling, which often results in losses. Ideally, the amount purchased determines the amount of assets that have been accumulated, but patience plays a big role in determining the success of investments because they tend to ignore short-term fluctuations to achieve maximum profits when the market rises again.

[X-ray]

Since market cap has reached this high, it rewards more based on amount purchased. The more you buy, the more profit you can get as it does in any business ever.

But maybe 15 years ago you can become millionaire by simply holding few k worth of bitcoin but it requires patience.

Although you need to understand that the risk of holding bitcoin 15 years ago compared to today is incomparable. It was significantly riskier to be on a new cutting edge tech when ecosystem hasn't grown this huge.

[Yorubek]

To success in investing in Bitcoin, I focus on a few things, which are the right knowledge, prudent money, consistency and patience. When an investor buy Bitcoin in small amounts consistently with prudent money with the right knowledge and confidently buy Bitcoin as much as he can during market volatility and patiently holds it for the right time, then long-term profits can be expected from Bitcoin in the future. Right knowledge, consistency and patience can lead us to success.

[YOSHIE]

Does bitcoin reward investors based on amount purchased or based on patience?

Of course, that's a certain thing and maybe everyone knows that, the more Bitcoin you buy, the greater the profit/reward you receive. If at any time the price of Bitcoin rises, patience is certain.

Imagine if you buy 3-5 Bitcoins at the current price of $78k, you patiently wait for at least four years for the halving to occur and the price of Bitcoin rises to the level of $150k, meaning that in 1 Bitcoin you have received a reward of $72k, if multiplied by 3 Btc you have pocketed a profit of $216k, isn't that the situation? that's like your title.

[TofuRute]

Both really matter I think, the amount you buy affects how big your profit can be, but patience is what actually lets you reach that profit. Like some people buy a large amount, but when price drops, they panic and sell early, so they end up losing or making very little while others only buy small amounts but they hold for years and still see good gains.

Ive actually seen many cases where people regret selling too early more than buying too little, the amount that you have is equal to how much you can earn, and if how broad is your patience is equals to whether you actually get that earning. Both of these are important, but without patience, even a big investment wont help much.

[Hardyrobust]

 If we take a look at the history of bitcoin from the onset when it was created. It will every obvious that bitcoin rewards only those that are patient because without this some investors may end up selling at loss. Those that has been holding bitcoin for more than 10years will definitely attest to the fact that bitcoin rewards those that are patient. However, the quantity of bitcoin accumulated also plays a role in the rewards but the most important thing is being patient.
