Consistency beats size

[Byebyebtc]

Their are so many reasons for starting small or with the amount you can afford because this is the key to start the journey of your investment.

There are many perspective one can use to digest your topic, but the thing is that, while you want to invest, let it be an amount you can afford, whether it is big or small, it all depends on your financial ability

Correct, also be aware that your investment should be with your discretionary income. So that will be a down side for individuals that do not have a good income. Some individuals do not realise any discretionary income after getting paid, in such a situation investing becomes almost impossible.
So I will advise any one that do not have a good source of income that can deliver dictionary income, should first of all focus on getting a good job first before you start investing. After getting a good job investment becomes flexible.

I have seen people starting a new business in a big way and end up in a small scale until the business ceased to exist, this is why it is better to start more and you keep building in your business so as to know how you could manage running and sustaining a business successfully, sometimes we need to start a small way just to be able to understand the ethics in business management and the challenges we can possibly face and tackle it in a small way before we advance in a big way in our business, this is the same thing applicable to bitcoin investment.

Good one, some people don't have the knowledge of the business they want to invest into before starting and this makes their business to crashed because they are unable to handle situations when they are faced with one and instead of them to start small, so that they can be getting experience as time goes on since they don't have much understanding and knowledge about the business, they will want to start in a large scale and at the end, they will lose everything, when they could have apply this mindset to prevent their business from crashing.

Yes, that's true, because they always feel that starting a business with a huge amount is the best way to make money quickly. It's very essential for us to always do the needful things first, and then, as time goes by, you can grow your business, because you already know the advantages and disadvantages.

Knowledge is power when it comes to investment, because without it, you wouldn't be able to achieve your goals. So we shouldn't get carried away by someone's opinion without doing our own research.

Especially in the case of Bitcoin Investing, it is very good to start smaller scale, as I have said many times on this local board that if we have the money to buy a fraction of Bitcoin, then we should buy regularly without waiting for an adequate opportunity. It should be remembered that if we do not lag behind in Bitcoin investment and keep investing, a small amount of money can give big profits. So it should be understood that if we are consistent in BTC investment, even if the investment is small, it will grow at some point and help every investor reach the goal sufficiently. Everyone knows that investing becomes flexible after getting a good job, but even then, it's important to understand the importance of starting small because I think even if someone's discretionary income is the equivalent of five dollars in naira, they should still stick to buying BTC.

Size in what you are doing could serve an instrumentation in a high professional standard, also build a credible relationship, trust and reputation in what you do so as to make it progress even beyond your imagination, running a full scale operation is not by capital, but our preparedness towards business management strategy we are using to sustain us and as well keep the business running, so that after growing it from small to big, we can be able to manage something more better than how we started.

Starting on a smaller scale especially when it comes to investment is really good but size also matters! Depending on your aims and your goals it for investing in bitcoin or whatsoever, the size you choose to invest consistently or just buy upfront really matters…

You can’t just say I’m a consistent investor whereas you’re just investing let’s say $2 weekly… in a complete year you would have just invested an amount around $104…..now compare it to someone who invests more than that consistently or just invests a thousand dollars upfront, does the consistency beats the size? No

Consistency is important for investments but it doesn’t beat the size, the size determines your profits and consistent investment determines what you would accumulate overtime…so both are important.

P.s: I’m just replying to the title of the thread.

I resonate with your sentiment @Hypnotizer. The topic of this thread seems to be a catchy one but perhaps it is too simplistic for my liking. Personally i prefer to think that consistency and the size of investment work hand in hand even though they are not interchangeable with each other, what really matters is knowing when to prioritize one over the other.
Certainly, a consistent investment has a high chance of turning into a significantly sizable investment if it is done properly. The size of a person’s investment still plays a crucial role in determining the extent of the returns that is tied to their investment. Considering all this, i dare say that both consistency and size are important so let us desist from proclaiming that one outweighs the other.

P.S. I am in no way trying to diminish the importance of being consistent. As a matter of fact, i encourage it amongst investors whether they are newbies or oldies. The telos of the points that i have stated above is only to convey the fact that even though consistency and investment size serve different purposes, they still complement each other. Consistency will help an investor to build the habit of steady accumulation while investment size will influence the scale of returns from their capital that is being put to work.

For someone who is just starting or new to Bitcoin investment, investing with small amount is fine especially a person that is having this doubting about the whole process but still want to invest, it will be advisable to start up with little amount of money and continue like that if the doubt is still there, also a person who started with small amount can also appreciate to higher amount for better outcomes. I am not saying there is no good outcome investing with small amount, but the only way to grow faster that way is through consistency in the investment, with the little you can invest with keep investing whenever you have the money to invest with. Consistency truly beats size.

I also believe there is another good thing about the idea of starting small, it provides new investors with a chance to learn in a less stressful environment.  If someone does not have a big amount invested into Bitcoin,  they will not worry so much or even panic about the fluctuation of Bitcoin's price.

This experience gives  them confidence and a better understanding of the market behavior, before thinking of committing bigger amounts into the market.  The more their knowledge about Bitcoin increase and the more they earn,  the easier and more comfortable it will be to increase the investment.

I agree with you OP. In fact, there are many people who do not start investing in Bitcoin just thinking that since the price of Bitcoin is very high, they will start with a very high amount or that discretionary income will start coming in more. But instead of starting for a long time, they remain as no-coiners. But by starting with a small amount, experience increases with time and you can learn a lot. How to keep your mentality strong and hold on to Bitcoin when the market dip and continue buying Bitcoin regularly without making decisions like panic selling. Starting with a small amount may not create a large Bitcoin holding in a short time, but it is possible to build a strong holding by using the experience that will be created in a short time in the future and increasing the DCA of Bitcoin according to income over time. Therefore, instead of waiting for a large amount to invest in Bitcoin, if any amount of discretionary income is being generated, then you should start investing in Bitcoin.

Starting small beats just waiting to get it big. And it also reduces the temptation to get the actual point when the market will make it's move. Eliminating that near perfection one thinks it will play out. At the end of the day, delayed investment can lead to many missed opportunities. Instead of that, why don't one just do it little by little. Investing smaller amount time and time again will one day make the investment big. But i won't bash does that already have the lump sum. We all wished that we too had that huge sum to get things done. Since one doesn't have that huge sum, starting small is preferrable.

Consistency na the number one thing wey we suppose know say pass every other thing wey fit include numbers.
Some people wey dey use their own well known strategy to buy Bitcoin every day dey do am because they wan accumulate Bitcoin and na the only way wey we fit use to dey buy Bitcoin. We need fit dey wait for when we go get money before we dey buy am for Bitcoin.
The price of Bitcoin not really dey stable and this one na big challenge wey supposed make us dey think and calculate when be the best time to dey but and keep. That small small buying go dey means a lot for people wey understand watin e mean to dey buy.

Wherever you invest if you cannot maintain consistency, you will not be able to survive for a long time and if you cannot survive for a long time with confidence through investment, you will never be able to achieve success. Anyone can manage investment in Bitcoin but very few people can invest consistently with a long-term plan. It is not necessary to have a lot of money to buy Bitcoin consistently with a long-term plan, only an investor needs to have discretionary money. As a result the investor can buy Bitcoin little by little consistently and hold Bitcoin for a long time with confidence. As a result the investor can enjoy all the benefits of Bitcoin when good times come in the future. To hold Bitcoin for the long term it is very important to invest in a disciplined and consistent manner.

One thing I have learnt when Bitcoin investment is an investment plan in the making is that one doesn't have to wait for big amounts to start with.
In this our country where the price of things are inflating because of inflation everyday, stacking small sats is even the best so you don't run out of money in you bank account in case of emergency and special appearances.

The small amount you use with a consistent input amounts to DCA strategy and it would definitely amount to much in the future because the supply of Bitcoin is also limited, it makes you among the few who would have more to sell in the future at a bigger price, that's why it is called digital gold to begin with.

Investment is not always about the right calculation but sometimes about the consistency, discipline and the right action. It is possible that everybody could have an investment but still have different result despite the same calculations and analysis.

In this case bitcoin, and it has being noticeable over the years how bitcoin has followed a particular pattern and always rewards the patient ones that held strong during the dip. As much as consistency is important in investment, the size is also an important factor that should not be underrated.
