What Makes Your Bitcoin Journey Comfortable?

[BItcoin Guy@]

Some people think Bitcoin is all about fear because the price is volatile, but we all know that fear is one of the huge things and that makes it scary to some. But when you get experience and knowledge, you learn how to control your mind and feel comfortable in your investment journey.

There are some things that, if you follow them, will make you comfortable in your Bitcoin investment.

Understanding over noise:
When you have real knowledge about Bitcoin, you won't worry about what others are saying. You feel better even when the price is not moving your way, because you believe you will reach your goal in the future when the price rises. And that stops you from checking charts every minute or hour.

Long-term lens:
When investing in Bitcoin, your mindset should be ready for a four-year cycle, not just 3 or 4 days thinking you will be profitable. When you start thinking deeply and focus on long-term investment and set a target, you will feel more comfortable in your investment journey.

Strategy not gambling
The DCA method is much better than timing the dip. It is good to buy small and consistently, that will be like savings and not trading. You feel better because you are using DCA to grow your Bitcoin portfolio. Waiting for the price to increase before investing is like gambling, because you are just taking risks without risk management.

Security you control
This is one thing that saves you from becoming a victim. Security protects your coins and makes you feel safer when you keep them in self-custody and write your seed phrase offline. When all your security is tight, you feel comfortable in your investment journey, because not your keys, not your coins, and that is the fact.

Not your "keys" not your "Coin" is very important to take note of because securing your bitcoin should be your number 1 priority when it comes to Bitcoin investment. Getting the necessary knowledge and experience comes with time but having a good strategy to follow gives you some level of comfort. Like you said the DCA method has proven to be very effective so instead of trading your coins, you simply buy consistently at intervals depending on your income and budget.
When you're sure that you're following the right steps in your Bitcoin investment journey then you'll definitely be sure that you don't need to check charts every 2 seconds to know if it's going in your direction or not. This is simply because you must have understood that bitcoin should be held long term (3 to 4 years minimum) for you to make some reasonable profit.
If you abide by these I'm sure you'll be comfortable through this journey.

Having a very good strategy before you begin investing in bitcoin is very important. It can be NCA or some strategies that are similar to NCA.

I prefer not to fomo, but wait until the market calm again after a long term bull run and invest when people are panicking. This is the best time to begin NCA.

Invest just little amount gradually.

Well articulated, I like your point number one, summarized all the points you listed. For an investor who is well focused on getting adequate knowledge about bitcoin, the person will know everything on what to do and what not to do, in order to get the most out of his bitcoin investment. Relying on knowledge over noise shouldn’t just be on the price movement alone. It should reflect on every aspect of your bitcoin interactions.

Yes it gives more comfort to know that you have custody of your coins right with you in your wallet. This is the advantage of using a non custodial wallet because every security starts and ends with you. If you have kept your passphrase and private keys very well, you don't have third party interference. But if you keep your coins in an exchange that is open to hack, you might lose it to hackers if the exchange incase they are understand attacks.

One thing that has made my journey in Bitcoin is being amongst people that have had experience and are not afraid of investing no matter how risky it looks, if you want to succeed in a particular field you have to surround yourself with people that have been there longer than you and also people that are positive and open minded and focused although what worked for them may not work for you but it is important to be in the midst of positive people while having your own strategy.

Investing in bitcoin requires that you know more about the privacy and security of it. Relying on only investing without knowing the risk involved in a long term market prospects is not ideal. Waiting for the market to drop or increase in price will never allow you to NCA into your investment, it makes you lose opportunities that is required to have an already moving investment. Understanding the concept of the market is very important because it helps you remain vigilant and make decisions in the market that gives you an edge no matter what the condition of the market becomes going forward.

Your analysis are right ,and well arranged ,you see that understanding over noise is very important, because once one have real knowledge concerning Bitcoin,the noise in the world won't affect you ,there won't be need to panic even if others are worried about the volitility nature , it helps move focus and attention from what is happening at the moment and shift everything to the future.

Then again strategy plays a very big role, it enables one to be consistent especially when one have the long term goals, little by little, you have come up with a reasonable amount ,and over the years you will be glad that your consistency pays off.

Everything is actually base on mindset . First have the mindset that bitcoin ain’t something complex at all , because many do see it as something to complex even when come to the investment aspect too . Before investing in it make sure you can keep up with your normal daily expenses as you invest (having discretionary income ).

Bitcoin investment not something that should be rush . I know, price don’t wait for anyone which is true but still take your time to make sure are investing in the best possible way you can . So that you won’t make any mistakes that will later affect you big time in your bitcoin journey. Having the right principles will help have smoother investment.

That's a fact, real knowledge would kill fear of volatility cause an investor would understand that volatility shouldn't scare someone who's intention is to buy and hold for long term, there would be no reason to use wrong strategies like waitng for the dip cause the investor would understand the importance of using the DCA to buy consistently.

Also, understanding Bitcoin investment would help an investor practice a good way of holding (self custody) over buying and leaving coins in exchanges, investors won't use wallets that are vulnerable to hackers for storage.

Investing in Bitcoin requires more knowledge about its security and privacy, of course it is right but one should start early if one has discretionary income. Honestly we can say that, waiting for the market price to go down or up is missing out on many opportunities.

So in this case everyone should take the initiative to buy bitcoin regardless of the market price if they have discretionary income and also know how to keep bitcoin investment safe and private because there have been many crypto hacks and data leaks this year especially ledger hardware wallets,Coldcard hardware wallet hacking and various CEX hacks have also damaged many holdings. In fact it is just as important for our local board minuses to start investing in Bitcoin as it is to provide security for these investments.

Using DCA is indeed a comfortable way to invest, you can get to invest little amounts gradually until it reaches your target. With this reacting to the market based on fomo would be almost impossible because you aren't making your investments under pressure or anxiety. And just like you said, having a good strategy is also important as well, without a plan I don't think anyone should be making an investment in Bitcoin.

Positivity will always help you a lot especially if you are the type that lacks confidence and feels the need of extra push or advice before actually doing something then surrounding yourself with people that have been there and already done all you plan to start will boost you a lot but not everyone feel that way with people like for example myself, am actually not okay with people even knowing what I do, so that's why I do my own research and possibly learn from others that are not close like the forum here and this is because of my belief though.

Exactly , understanding what you are into ,helps a lot ,many mistake people makes is lack of knowledge, and some feels Bitcoin investment is a get rich quick scheme whereby they invest today and get  profit tomorrow,so they really don't care about long term goals ,which is a wrong mindset that has misled many into losing out, some buys and wait for dip so they can sell ,but if they understand very well how all this works ,the volitle nature will not scare them or make them panic into selling off at the wrong time, but in all determination and consistency plays a big role .

Bitcoin has a strategy that works well for it likewise every business has a pattern that works for it, Observation and patience is part of the necessities while trying to invest Bitcoin, because general speculation will only lead to bad decision making, at this time people will start debating on whether to keep holding or sell there holding when there is bear market which is the most terrifying period for every investor just like every business have several times and period when they are faced with challenges that shakes there mind to discontinue.

Well, as for me I don't think it's necessary for a low coin or a nocoiner to be waiting for a major market decline before getting started with bitcoin Investment. I suggest that if a beginner is sure that he has discretionary income they should get started with their bitcoin investment irrespective of the market condition at the time, because if they should wait for major market decline before getting started they may not invest because even when the dip that they have been longing to see eventually happens they will be trying to figure out the final dip before getting started and on the process of doing that the market might goes up again and they start waiting for another dip. Of course this has happened to Many newbies that is why I don't recommend beginners to invest with such method the DcA is the best method for bitcoin accumulation.
