It's scary how obvious it is to buy Bitcoin

[gracreavix]

There will be always opportunities to earn from Bitcoin. Take for instance money. Money has value that's why everyone is trying to work hard to get it.  Gold is not left out. People are still buying into Gold. Same with Bitcoin, there will always be an opportunity to buy into Bitcoin.

Now the only issue one will have is trying to buy at a good price. I think that is were the main issue might be. I know we are preaching DCA. Which is good. But let's be realistic, not everyone will be successful doing DCA. Others might try something and get what they want from it.

There isn't one path to get Bitcoin. Endless opportunities. You just have to be prepared for the next one. And the next and the next.

In 5 years time, I think people are going to look back and realise how big of an opportunity this was.

For the first time in human history, we have something that is truly scarce, digital, borderless, easily transferable, and cannot be controlled or manipulated by any single entity.

Short term price movements do not change what Bitcoin actually represents. Opportunities like this don't come around often.

Same old trend and same old human beings. No matter how obvious it is they will always be humans who will look at the opportunity to buy Bitcoin and still neglect it and then later regret, I think it's an in built human feature so there is absolutely nothing to do about this. The fact is that even if the price as of today gets so low as $10k again not everyone will see it as a golden chance rather it's gonna even create more doubt with so many questions raised about if actually the coin is about to fold up.

How many 5 years has now passed?
Individuals are now becoming numb to the pain of regret of not investing, the world's getting hard focus shifts nowadays, people keep looking for ways to survive, and patience, now is one thing lots of individuals loose gradually, Intrest now decrease. But just few that choose logic over emotions will let such pressure affect them, regardless we should recognize this is an opportunity a long term opportunity that demands patience, and we should get involved, time is running out

It will just stay that way, no matter how high Bitcoin goes, there will still be people who regret that they didn't buy when they had the opportunity to buy. I guess that's a common thing in the market. Even today there may still be people who regret not buying when they already know it from $10k, so there is no need to be surprised.
So the opportunity to buy it will still be there, even though the price of Bitcoin looks higher, but if we compare it with its potential in another 5 or 10 years when the price is already higher, then it is still worth it for investment.

Regrets can be from many reasons such as

- Did not know about Bitcoin earlier?
- Knew about Bitcoin early but did not care to do research about it, did not understand it well enough, and did not invest money in Bitcoin when it was cheaper than now.
- Actually invested money in Bitcoin but did not have too strong belief in its future, so sold bitcoin at very cheaper prices.
- Actually bought bitcoin but did not manage to hold it for investment but used it for trading, with leverages, used it for bets and lost most or all bitcoins.

Perhaps there are other reasons but lessons are valuable if we can learn something from our mistakes, and change our mindset about Bitcoin, change our practice and become actual Bitcoin investors, diamond holders from now.

I think if we really see the potential of bitcoin in the future, we always look at the long-term, but rather if we have a fund, we will surely find a way to buy it and hold it for a years come due to it is a proven long-term investment.

Let us not do others who don't believe in bitcoin but in the end there the one who lost not us, when bitcoin was still very cheap, they didn't pay attention to it and when the price increased, they still didn't pay attention, of course, what we will follow is that we ourselves discovered and believe in bitcoin.

Simple statements but they are on-point and they could have been applied to any time in Bitcoins
past and will be applied going forward.

I can look bact to a time when I was introduced to Bitcoin and shrugged off the opportunity, as can
quite a few others who are now in Bitcoin!

The Bitcoin market at times can overshadow what the OP points out. The focus should be on the
future and not necessarily on what the market is doing today.

[serjent05]

Well, it is still not too late to accumulate some Bitcoins.  Just do some DCA every now and then if your budget is limited, after all it is the patience and the timeframe that is important.  Bitcoin is a marathon the longer we endure holding Bitcoin the greater the reward is.  Do not look back and be discouraged by what the price of Bitcoin is now, after all it is already in the past, we need to start accumulating now for the future.

What Bitcoin gives is a rare opportunity.  We seldom see an investment that breaks its record every 4 years, and at the same time give us an hint on what will happen on the next 4 year.

I think it is better to have a strong mindset about the future of Bitcoin. If someone thinks negatively about Bitcoin, it is their personal decision. So I also don't think there is a need to be concerned about those who don't trust Bitcoin. If you can decide according to your strong trust in Bitcoin and invest in long-term Bitcoin, it can be profitable for the future. You are buying Bitcoin because the thesis seems strong to you. Even your financial ability gives you the opportunity to hold it long-term. In the end what those who ignored it lost is interesting history. But the real job of a long term investor is not to think much about what happened in the past or what decisions someone else has made. An investor should continue to invest in Bitcoin regularly according to his financial situation. And if someone is a new investor, then without paying much attention to what others think or say, do your own research, try to understand the monetary properties of Bitcoin, strengthen your financial position and regularly create accumulation planning.

Of course, there is also the economic aspect—the financial gain, buying and reselling for profit—but i view it more as a symbol, a means to achieve financial independence and freedom, and to finally break free from the influence of banks.

It will always amaze me how Bitcoin history always loves to rhyme, but somehow so many people get collective amnesia between the verses. It's super obvious to everyone who's been into Bitcoin for more than four years that this is a temporary phase and will get back to All-Time-Highs.

I'm unapologetically buying from people with amnesia, I guess.

Normally someone who believes the future base on the past data is not a normal person, I said this because people only care about the pr sent, Bitcoin was a dollar and it turned 126k per one but that's the past, not today.

I have met people who cares about the present than those who cares about the future, to them it's always about now and that's why we see some investors who want their invested money to turn huge in a month, they can't stand the future price.

It's like forever thing to them, they can't stand such patience.

This is the secret most people don't know about Bitcoin. When they discover the importance of investing in Bitcoin and regret not accumulating it in the past, they just conclude that the opportunity is gone and that they can’t still get the same opportunity even today.

The main thing about investing in Bitcoin is to start now and invest, hodl, and it is just a matter of time to also make the opportunity that is there in Bitcoin. The future's value is better than that of today, and this is what people should understand and not take lightly. Bitcoin rewards every newcomer and not only the early investors.

[Agbamoni]

If having many bitcoins in my portfolio for the next five years means regret, I genuinely want to regret my whole life with hundreds of thousands of bitcoins in my wallet. Bring any holder of 5 -7 years and ask him if he regrets owning Bitcoin they will laugh at you.

I have a lot to say to you. Although it is clear that the statement proves you are naive. There is more for you to learn as time goes on. Only then will you understand what it means to have bitcoin.

[BitBakerr1]

I am one of those people that have been regretting why they did not accumulate bitcoin when bitcoin was first created.
The pattern of regrets will continue in bitcoin, people are thinking that the price of bitcoin is too high and it’s not worth it anymore. Maybe because they feel they will not gain profits, but I tell you today they will all regret why they did not invest in bitcoin the same way we that did not invest in bitcoin when bitcoin was first created regretted.

If only people will understand that the price of bitcoin will continue increasing as time goes on.

If you're looking at things from a long term point of view then you shouldn't be using 5 years because that's approximately one cycle of the market (bear & bull), you should be using minimum 10 years which is 2 and half cycles as a minimum duration to judge the performance of Bitcoin but if you can wait more years then it'll be more profits for you.

Like you said, Bitcoin is extraordinary so no one should be giving that up because of some little gains when better opportunities are ahead to make nore profits. You shouldn't make the same mistake of being that guy that sold so eaely instead, you should be among those that accumulated when the market was experiencing difficulties through corrections, that should be your story and to be able to tell that you need to fill up more bags which right now is an opportunity to accumulate.

It's always been obvious from the very beginning but people just haven't been paying enough attention and that's about to happen again because it always does but this type, you shouldn't be part of those that miss out.

Considering that bitcoin is unpredictable and no one knows what will happen in 5 years time but for the fact that bitcoin has always shown great potential of coming out stronger even after a heavy crash we are optimistic about what the future holds. Bitcoin remains one of the most valuable asset in the crypto world not just because it has potential of being profitable but the financial freedom it provides its holders where by they can stay in their comfort zone and transact to anywhere around the world without needing any form of external or intermediary permission to do so. I think in years to come there will be more usage of bitcoin outside beyond what it is today.

The cycle of regret experienced by people who have seen just how high Bitcoin’s price is now is a recurring phenomenon. And we know that there are so many people who regret not buying Bitcoin during previous periods. It’s only natural for people new to Bitcoin to experience this by considering that they usually don’t delve deeper into Bitcoin so they’re unaware of its potential for continued price appreciation. I personally see that Bitcoin is now much more widely known than it used to be, where I’m sure there are many people who have only recently become familiar with it. And among them there will certainly be those who end up regretting not buying Bitcoin especially when it has surged to extremely high levels during its halving periods as we’ve seen so far that Bitcoin consistently sets new all-time highs around those times.

[PERtua]

I believe the real problem is the distinction between the potential of Bitcoin in the long term and the expectation of definite profits. Here's the thing. Although scarcity will help drive up prices demand adoption. And market factors will play a role. What's interesting is that individuals grasp the basic principles of Bitcoin and fail to do so simply due to volatility. A long term investor should not attempt to figure out the ideal entry point. But rather purchase the stock over time within his ability to afford to lose money. Of course it's disappointing to miss an opportunity. But it's also unwise to purchase simply because one fears the regret that will follow.

I agree with most of what you said but I disagree with what you said at the end, because there aren't endless opportunities, and even if there are, every opportunity won't hold the face weight as the previous one. I'll explain what I'm trying to say. For example, someone who could buy Bitcoin in the previous bear market didn't do it for some reason, and they get the opportunity to do it in this bear market but guess what? They won't get the same price as before, because the lowest price in the previous bear market was $16k, and that is far from being possible this time around. So even though there is always an opportunity to buy, but new opportunities mean higher lowest price.

So those who use the available opportunities on time will have better results at the end. This obviously isn't for those who never knew about Bitcoin and came to know about it just now. For such people, the current cycle will be the first opportunity to make their purchases, but if they miss this opportunity, they will have another opportunity in the next cycle but as I said, the opportunity won't have the same value or same weight as the current one.

People who don't believe in Bitcoin need more time because it's going to be attractive to them. A few things always take time to prove themselves and Bitcoin is also one of them. From the start, it's facing challenges, even now it almost has enough adoption, but there are still few feuds about its existence around because hatters are still doing their job even after having many slaps on their faces. Bitcoin's potential is still not easily predictable because its journey is still not as it's needed, but recent developments are doing good, which are surely bringing good adoption and confidence of investors. Many countries are now bringing laws that will help their citizens to use this as part of their interest, with many new features increasing its use case, with good profit always on cards.
