How to invest easily and how to learn about investing

[elman007]

If I have some money that I have deposited in the bank, is it okay to invest it for a long time? I am actually interested in investing in Bitcoin. I want to learn about Bitcoin and invest in it. If I invest all the money that I have deposited in the bank, will it have any effect on me?

Keep in mind that the value of a bitcoin is very volatile. It can go up a lot and more importantly it can go down a lot. Investing all of your savings in Bitcoin is a mistake.

Financial advisors will tell you to keep 6 months (or more) of living expenses in cash in case you need it for an emergency or you lose your job or something.

Next, is this a long term (10 years) or short term (1 year) investment, and what is your risk tolerance? If you invest and the price drops 50% for no reason, is that going to be a problem? If you are investing short-term or you are going to worry about a 50% drop, then there are better investments than Bitcoin.

You don't have to invest all unless you have some extra cash stacked somewhere else and the ones in the bank are seating their for investment purposes, if not, even is you have some stable income, it's best you go with that advice of keeping part of the money aside, which could save you in terms of emergency then while you are working and earning more you can be putting some more into the investment depending on your target but always have some cash left to settle unplanned bills.

Only you can know or tell whether investing that money will have any effect on you or not. If the funds you are talking about are discretionary, which means that you understand that you don't need those funds right now or won't need them in the near future, then you can go ahead and invest them in Bitcoin, but if you think that you might need those funds in the near future, then I wouldn't recommend doing it, because this market is pretty unpredictable, you maybe get some profits within a month sometimes, but you might not get any for years as well, especially when the bear run is going on.

So before you make a decision, you should ask yourself this question. If the answer is in positive, then you can go ahead and buy bitcoins with it either using a decentralized exchange like Bisq, or a centralized one such as Binance. Make sure that you use a non-custodial wallet, Electrum is a good option, to keep your assets, because exchanges are only for trading cryptocurrencies, they shouldn't be used to keep your assets as it could be risky with things that happen in this industry sometimes.

Investing in bitcoin isn't all that hard.
You have to find a way to buy it and most people use an exchange. The most convenient one for you depends a lot on where you are located.

You can keep buying bitcoin every months with w percentage of your disposable income. Then you can also keep a note of Joe much you've spent just to know your average purchase price. Maybe in downturns you can dca in a bit more.

Also do look into self custody.

My advice is, comparing leaving your money in the bank to investing in bitcoin, should be a thing that you don't need to debate about for so long, since you intend to leave that money there as long as possible so bitcoin os your most suitable point of investment.

On how to learn about bitcoin investment, first you don't need too much knowledge or technical knowhow to invest in bitcoin, all that will needed is your wallet and private keys to that wallet, an exchange account to buy your bitcoin then transferred into your own wallet for safe keeping.

Learn about wallet security and avoid connecting your wallet online, with that, you can comfortably hold your bitcoin for as long as possible.

Bitcoin investment is good when you invest wisely. It's risk to invest everything in Bitcoin, it's more advisable to divide your income and invest some. Moving all your saving from bank to Bitcoin isn't smart moves, even though you have stated here that you want to invest for a long term which is better in bitcoin investment.

Bitcoin hasn't replaced bank, which means bank will continue till end of time. For you to invest wisely, you have to set aside some money in your bank at least money to sustain you for long, like emergency money, daily expense and so on.
‎As a beginner it's even wrong investing all your funds at once, to avoid mistakes, you should take it gradually may be weekly or monthly, this will help you monitor your process and manage it with patient.

Do you mean holding Bitcoin for a long time? If so, yes, it's fine to do that, but the question is, is this money you are going to use to invest on Bitcoin is something you can afford to lose? As odolvlobo mentioned, Bitcoin is very volatile, the price could drop at any moment, reducing the dollar value of the coins you just bought, and it could take a long time for the price to recover. If that money is something you can't afford to lose, it could have an effect on you.

It will have an effect on you if you don't save up for emergency purposes. Investing in Bitcoin for long term investment planning is a perfect idea, but it wouldn't be okay if you invested all your money in Bitcoin, as some important things come up along the line that need money to settle them. That will warrant you selling your Bitcoin at a loss or for small gains because you have no money at hand to sort out your emergency bills.

I don't know, since it's your money, you should be the one who understands whether it will impact you or not.

But if you want to invest your money in Bitcoin, you should learn to understand what Bitcoin is and the best way to invest in it. The mistake people make is not having proper knowledge when they invest their money in Bitcoin. They may see that Bitcoin can generate profits, but they don't understand the risks and how to store it securely.

You need to learn first, and then, when you're more prepared, you can decide to invest your money in Bitcoin.

Yes you can invest in Bitcoin, but first what I will advice is that, you need to try go for a little knowledge of Bitcoin and understand a little of it for yourself first.. Because you sound so much like you are a complete novice.. If you stick around this forum for a little while, you could get a background knowledge..
Then secondly, I would not advise you going all in with all your money, try as much as possible to be calculative with your funds..

That depends of how huge it is. But if you have deposited it there, if you can't afford to lose all that you've said there then only invest a part of it,
maybe 25%.

And long term investing, you got it right and that's fine. Take one step at a time, invest a little by little until you decide what is the max amount you can invest with your savings.

I still highly advice to keep some cash for your emergency purposes.

To start investment, you should never begin with empty knowledge about Bitcoin. It's mandate to learn about fundamentals of Bitcoin which is helpful for building up your knowledge of and belief in Bitcoin, then you must learn how to use open source non custodial wallets for storage your bitcoins because as investor you must store and secure your coins as your own custodians.

The idea of depositing all the money you have saved is not a not so good one because you're risking staying invested putting all your hope in your bitcoin investment.

There are things you should never do as a newbie investor;
1. Don't invest everything you have regardless of where you project bitcoin to get to at a certain time.
2. Only invest a reasonable percentage of your earnings and keep another percentage for your upkeep and emergency fund. If you don't do adequate provision for your daily expenses and for emergency, the safety of your bitcoin holding is never guaranteed.
3. Don't joke with having a sustainable source of income. Investing in bitcoin is not a full time job. If you're investing with the intention of using your to run your daily life, it means you've already failed on arrival. Your investment in bitcoin only has better potential in the long run and hence, there should be adequate plan as to how to sustain yourself throughout that phase.

The summary of it all is that investing in bitcoin should be well thought out and proper plan should be in place before you even get at it. It doesn't take too long to count the cost of investing in bitcoin before getting started and so, doing proper counting of the cost is the first step that will lead to a successful bitcoin investment.

You are at the right place , all you need to do is do more of reading here , there are a lot of threadz that is all about Bitcoin investment, starting your investment journey is not that hard , but you must read and understand some certain principles, gain little knowledge first and do some other research, Bitcoin is volatile in nature , but over the years the value has increased, instead of keeping your money in the bank , it’s better to use it and accumulate Bitcoin , and it’s mainly for long term, not something you would put today and want tomorrow, to get good profit it must be for a very long time .

I want to learn about Bitcoin and invest in it.

This is your primary and most important step, and it is a good thing that you have it in mind.
If you are already going to 'invest' in something, Bitcoin in this case, then it is best to first get good information about it, learn as much as possible, and only then take further steps.
The moment you learn about it, you will probably know what your next steps are.

In the end, is leaving the bank with money and switching to Bitcoin an investment or just a conversion to a much more potent currency?

Another person who forgot that the forum has not only the history of his posts but also archives.

OP, did you lose your memory or hurt your head, forgetting that a few months ago you actively participated in a popular topic (where you can get merits) about investing in Bitcoin and, moreover, taught and gave valuable advice?

That's why I want to say that you're going the wrong way, and you're starting out the wrong way. This post should have been written in the first few days, in December, but now you look like a  alternative account.

I'm sorry, but it's true. All the advice in this topic is useless.

Read his post history.

Along with investing, it is also important to have an emergency fund. Because people do not sell their investments except in an emergency. Starting from a sudden accident or job loss, various other dangers can come. So an investor should create an emergency fund. Which will be equal to his 3-6 months of income. If any investor creates an emergency fund and is able to invest using the DCA strategy for 4-10 years, then he will earn a good profit from his investment.

The best way to learn about Bitcoin is to follow the instructions on your forum. Apart from that, when you start investing, you will develop a desire to learn. You will not be able to learn well until you can invest. However, if you are interested in the blockchain relationship of Bitcoin, you can easily learn about investing. You just have to read a lot and invest, even if it is a small amount.

To invest in Bitcoin for the long term, you need to be mentally prepared first. Waiting for the market to fall is actually a manifestation of inattention to investment. If your goal is truly long-term, then you should never wait for a fall.
Rather, the most effective method is to buy Bitcoin regularly by following the dca strategy. The market will fluctuate, but over time, this strategy will help you control the average purchase price.
Bitcoin has proven itself to be a strong asset over a long period of time. Those who have been patient and continued to invest regularly have benefited in the end.

Dips are a good way to buy at a low price, but it is not right to wait for dips, because you do not know when the dip will happen or whether the dip will come or not, so it is not right to wait for the dip. It is better to continue investing regularly in small amounts through dca. The rules of dca are simple, with the help of which there is no trick. If you buy in dca, even if you buy a small amount, hedging is done. The most difficult thing is to survive in investment, which not everyone can do. Only a person who is adamant can survive in investment for one and a half years. By investing regularly, the dip will also become a thing at some point.

forgot?

Dont do that. Invest only money or your spare money on bitcoin. If those money in the banks are your life saving or family funds dont ever try to risk it for bitcoin. Yes its good to invest on it but only those money that you can afford to lose since it a volatile asset. What happened if it goes down and all your money in it? Thats gonna be bad right. This something every newbies should understand.

Bank deposits can be FD/RD, these are stable and less risky. Indeed some of your fiat money should be invested in these places - that which you know you will need to liquidate in emergency. The rest can be divided into other traditional assets including stocks, bonds and real estate and some gold if you are interested in it. Beyond that I think bitcoin should be the next choice and the only choice when it comes to crypto. Buy for the long term, look at the charts, keep collecting fiat every month to be allocated for bitcoin and when that price dump happens, buy in bulk during every drop.

Make sure you learn about wallets and how to keep coins safe as well. Never store your coins on your exchange.
