True Bitcoiners love red

[BitBrainers]

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.

The distinction isn't that clean. A long-term holder who welcomes red to accumulate cheaper is still a true Bitcoiner. The motivation is different from a trader, but the action looks the same. Loving red doesn't mean you're speculating. It means you understand the cycle.

I agree with the core distinction. Price and value are not the same, and good investing is about buying value, not chasing price movements.

But I’d add one caution: assuming every price drop is a "gift" only works if the underlying thesis is still valid. In Bitcoin’s case, conviction should come from understanding the long-term fundamentals, not just the desire to accumulate more.

Bear markets help disciplined investors, but they also expose whether someone actually understands what they’re holding or is just averaging down blindly.

I think this is mostly dependent on how long and how consistently one have been accumulating bitcoin and holding. A long term investor who has been ongoingly buying bitcoin for a while can decide to wait for red before buying and it won’t be much problem to him because he already accumulated some good amount of bitcoin to his portfolio. But someone who’s just getting started don’t need to wait for a red before he starts buying because he may end up not catching it as bitcoin is really unpredictable. So instead of waiting for red as a beginner who wants to invest for long term it will be good to start buying from your discretionary income using the DCA at any market price to reach your accumulation goal before relaxing for reds.

Experienced investors can wait for Red candles and buy the dips quite comfortably determinant while newbies can wait for red candles but they will feel more uncertain at such times, and might hesitate to make their purchases. It's big difference between newbies and experienced investors while the market is only one and it's the same for everyone.

Knowledge about the market, different financial conditions, and preparation for investment capital as well as experience will decide how people see the market, and how they response in a same market. Red candles are cool for experienced investors while they're terrible for newbies.

Bear markets help disciplined investors, but they also expose whether someone actually understands what they’re holding or is just averaging down blindly.

A bear market is where an investor's patience is put to the test, as well as revealing whether the investor actually has a knowledge of the assets into which he or she is investing. When price of Bitcoin dropping it is easy for someone to keep buying, but it is much more essential to know why you are buying in the first place.

An investor who has actually taken their time to get to understand the fundamentals of Bitcoin is more likely to view a drop as an opportunity, but however, someone who is purchasing just because the price has fallen will not be in a state of real conviction and they will likely make decisions based on hope instead of knowledge. This is why bear markets are an excellent learning opportunity for investors, they help to distinguish between conviction and blind optimism.

Many don’t that the dip is actually cool , instead they will be panic in the market because they are just in for short term gains and stuff, which is not bad still because as long there are long term investors there will also be a short term investor too , but the truth is that when come to bitcoin long term is better .

Buying the dip will give you the privilege to buy cheaper . Because when your sat are not much when the price surges you won’t make much profit like when you have enough sats stack in your wallet .

Since every bitcoiners knew that purchasing bitcoin in the bearish season is the best season for both long term and short term investors, it will be better to visit the market to purchase bitcoin and hold until they are convince that they will earn what will make them to show interest before they can start purchasing bitcoin to have it in mind that they will earn huge income, if you like red light candl in the market doesn't mean that everybody prefer red card light because there are some investors that like dollar cost average ((DCA) while there are some that like bearish season so that they can purchase and hold for long term to achieve what they want from bitcoin investment.

Yes, there are many experienced Bitcoin investors out there who do not consider red candles to be scary, but rather as an opportunity. During bear markets. Individuals can buy more Bitcoin at lower prices, is the reason why long term holders generally will not panic during bear markets. Everyone's approach and tolerance to risk, however, is not the same. There are those who invest using DCA because they don't like to try to time the market and others who wait for big corrections before investing. Ultimately, the love for red candles is more than just a love for the price drops. It's a love for what lies ahead for Bitcoin in the long run. There is more to it than just the market color, it is a clear plan, discipline.

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.

And that will be the one single thing that most of the newbies, and majority of the ignorant investors will not learn or realize because for them, the only thing that they want is for the market to go up, and up, and up which we know will not happen, right?

We've seen this for a long time especially for those who are into crypto for years. Bull market will happen then after that, a bear market happens, then after that, 2 long years of accumulation phase where the market will still give you an opportunity to buy at not the bottom price anymore, but still considered as low. If we know that this is the cycle then we must create a strategy based on that. Can I consider myself as a real "Bitcoiner" then because I enjoy this time of the year? I enjoy seeing the market going down, and down because I can accumulate more at a much cheaper price.

Newbies will learn that the good time to buy Bitcoin is during the bear market. Some will only learn it thru experience, and that's fine. Investors make  mistakes and they adjust from them.

The newbie lesson only lands after the experience. You cannot tell someone in their first bear market that red is a gift. They have to feel the panic, hold anyway, and come out the other side. That is the only way the cycle logic becomes real conviction instead of borrowed wisdom.
