True Bitcoiners love red

[BitBrainers]

This isn't entirely accurate. The lower the price the more it can negatively impact decentralization. It becomes more difficult to generate returns from mining, and only a few pools can withstand the low price. Furthermore, a lower price means fewer transactions on the network.

Therefore, as an investor, a short-term price drop is beneficial, but a sustained decline over several years is disastrous.

This is the point most people miss. A short dip is a buying opportunity. A sustained multi-year decline is a different problem entirely — it squeezes miners, reduces hashrate, threatens decentralization.
Loving red makes sense when you know it's temporary. The conviction only holds if the fundamentals haven't broken.

True Bitcoineirs have my respect, they don't react to the market either it's red or green they don't care, all they want is to hold for as long as they can, profits ? They don't care like mani others do.

This is why those whales are able to hold for many years in the past, it's not like they don't need money,  they do but they have their other ways of sorting that out.

They stayed true to been a bitcoiner, this is extremely hard for many investors because they want to make money in a matter of few months or few years, they don't care about holding for a very long time.

Dips are cool when trying to get more sats for cheap but, when I think of a 'true bitcoiner', I think of someone who cares not about green/red/PnL.

Their favorite color is orange, and having some is better than having none.

Brilliant! ^{I made the Orange Orange for you!}


Anyone who is into Bitcoin for a number of years would generally welcome the Bear season/market as
a time for accumulation, especially those who are able be "buy low - sell high". There is a caveat though -
if you find yourself in need to a lot of funds and need to trade Bitcoin it would be unfortunate if it happened
in a Bear market - but then again yu would probably still be in profit even in the Bear market if you had
HODL'd long term.

True bitcoiners love bitcoin. Period.

Red or green is what the market shows, when the price is compared with fiat currencies, but keep in mind that 1BTC is always 1BTC and nothing different.

For the traders, obviously the red market means the time to buy and the green market means the time to sell, although I know most of you have been stuck doing to opposite because you never observed the market decisively.

Colors are so political these days and Bitcoin is apolitical. Although it can't be denied that there will be relation to what's being in the subject through colors. While we all are for Bitcoin and we like it, I think that it stays there and each individual who likes it will definitely like the reddish days when they are up for accumulation. But it differs per situation of an investor when there are moments they can't like it when they have no plans to accumulate and only likes to see the value of their holdings go up.

[Perfectbaby]

Anyone who is that aggressive to have Bitcoin in their portfolio would never wait for the market to dip excessively before they could buy or accumulate more sats on their portfolio, they buy either on red, green or at any circumstances with the aim of doing DCA to increase their holdings. It's better to have than having none which is what is affecting most of the investors today because they are always waiting for the market to be Red before accumulating.

Yeah, as a true Bitcoiner both season are most awaited. Even it is bull run or bear run. Because holder wait for bear run so that he can accumulate more in dip and holder wait for bull run so that he can book the profit of his long term patience. And as a true Bitcoiner this story not ends here. When one books its profit then he again prepare for entering the market again for another long term holding and another all time high.

Other than this, I think one should have multiple source of income so that whenever he needs emergency funds he can be able to manage those funds from other source of income. This will not affect or impact his holding and plans of Bitcoin for in long time frame. Well this is my point of view. What do you think?

[BitBrainers]

one should have multiple source of income so that whenever he needs emergency funds he can be able to manage those funds from other source of income.

This is the part most people skip. The conviction to hold through a bear market is only possible if your bills don't depend on your Bitcoin. Financial runway is what separates real holders from forced sellers.

[Livingleged]

Yeah, but will you buy forever??

If you just got to know bitcoin and you are still buying your position, red could be good.

But if you are here for a long time, red isn't that good. We shouldn't be accumulating more money forever, this is greed. We need to spend money to live a good life too

I’ve always supported the idea of take profit at some point and build a good lifestyle, but the investors don't like to hear that. They just try to make things up with stories like maintenance phase…. After accumulation honestly i don't like to hear that. I mean what was the essence of the investment if taking profits isn’t that paramount.

[BlackHatCoiner]

I would classify a true Bitcoiner as someone who survives at least one bear market. With today's standards, if you hold through the bear market, you are an exceptional human being, because everyone has the attention span of a 5 year old and can't hold bitcoin for more than three weeks.

And it's not even a bear market. We're at $76,000. Previous generations survived up to -85%. We're cool.

[JaanusRaim]

However, it's not a good accumulation practice be waiting for the dip when you don't have any bitcoin.

Yes, dip in itself is not important - undervaluation (preferably strong undervaluation because we all make mistakes) is what counts in accumulation.

[Ronsbit]

One clear thing that separates real Bitcoiners from short-term speculators is that real Bitcoiners enjoy situations where they can accumulate BTC cheaper – a bear market.

I love bear market but I will not pretend that I love more greens over red since it’s the fruit of believing by putting my money during the besr market.

We are all investing to gain in the future so experiencing bullrun is the most satisfying experience unless you didn’t purchase on the bear market.

Hehehehehe

Bear markets look scary, though, but only the strong-willed can withstand them and take a dive into the market when it is red. Only the experienced can attest that bear is a preparatory phase for bull, so before there is any bull, there must be bear, and thus bear avails the opportunity to bag more and as much as you can to make a good profit during the bull run. Only the wise and smart investors understand this concept and take advantage of every bear opportunity that emanates.

[purple_sparkles]

 I like bear markets because during those periods I can accumulate more bitcoin. But I enjoy bull markets even more, when I see the value of my portfolio growing larger and larger. What matters to me is that these market cycles exist and that we can take advantage of them. They are also relatively short in duration. For me, bitcoin is a good investment choice with a medium-term cycle of about 4 years.

True investors understand that there are bull markets and bear markets especially when they understand the Bitcoin halving cycle. They can survive whatever the market throws at them. This is different from those (ordinary investors) who do not understand all of this so when Bitcoin prices drop they often panic and they are indeed more vulnerable when the market is rising.

This is the importance of knowledge and mentality in investing in Bitcoin. This is why you will be happy when the price drops especially if the asset you buy is a quality asset with solid fundamentals. So, without realizing it you form a mentality when you see the current price as a discount because you understand the long-term compounding effect. And in market psychology, most people panic and sell when the price drops but you as a true investor are actually capitalizing on other people panic.

Once you understand the principles of buying and selling in Crypto then you already know the fundamentals behind the bear and the bull. As a Crypto enthusiast, bear should be a part of your investment strategies because at bear you buy low and cheaper with increased volume giving you the opportunity and leverage to bag more of the asset at a low price. Only well grounded investors understands this investment strategy. Newbies in the system can never be able to get through it till they spend some time to understand how the chain works properly before they can flow along hence we see panic sellers and weak hands in the industry who are quick to sell off whenever there is a rumour or a slight market shakeup and most at times the shake does not affect the market but that panic sellers and weak hands mess up the market and experienced enthusiasts knows this that is why they easily manipulate the market because they know some people would always panic to sell off their assets.

Everyone that are true bitcoiner, would always be more interested in buying bitcoin for the longest time, I’m completely sure that a true bitcoiner wouldn’t only be interested in investing in a short term investment, they always go for the long term buying and accumulation of bitcoin, however every investor would love to buy bitcoin on a cheaper price, but a dip would only present you an opportunity of buying bitcoin on a discount price, and as a long term investor I wouldn’t like a situation where a dip would last for a long term, instead I would like a situation where I buy Bitcoin through the DCA and the price keeps going up to have a new ATH.

I might say I am a little bit selfish because I want to continuously see Bitcoin price increase but I also do understand that that is not possible as the market will need some time for it to correct so that it can regain back momentum and also increase to a higher price. Real investors also love red because those are the time in which they get to accumulate Bitcoin but also real investors love the green because that is the opportunity they get to take profit and strategize to reposition themselves into the market so that they can take better advantage of the market when the corrections happens. Just because you love the market more when it's green that does not make you less of an investor because for you to become a real investor you have to understand the both market trends and know how to take advantage of both of them.

[ImGenius]

I only consider those who loves Bitcoin and holding for years the true bitcoiners because they value Bitcoins system, Bitcoins Decentralization, Bitcoins freedom. Not the one who trade Bitcoin for short term to make profit. True bitcoiners never loves red, Instead we can say real traders love Red.

That’s just the good thing about bitcoin,both bear and bull moment can be beneficial to investors.As a matter of fact,those investors that have adopted the strategy of waiting for the dip are always excited to accumulate more whenever there’s a price drop,even me that don’t usually wait for the dip before I start accumulating usually takes advantage of the dip by accumulating more bitcoin to my portfolio.The bull moment is a moment of joy and regret,those that have held their coins for long would be joyous to reap their profit while those that sold at loss due to price decline would regret.So in other for you not to be among the set of investors that would regret it’s better to hold your coins without minding the negative news about bitcoin.

It is reasonable to withdraw as much profit as you need. If you can achieve your goal and if you are able to reach the additional savings level, then if you sell all your holdings at that time, it is not the right decision. Because the price of Bitcoin may increase in the future, so when you are able to reach this level, you can withdraw and enjoy according to your needs. But withdrawing the entire amount will not be the right decision at all.

It is not certain that you will ever be able to buy the price at which you bought it or the possibility of buying it seems to me to be less than 10%. Hold Bitcoin as an asset and withdraw and enjoy according to your situation
