Bitcoin investment is an investment you start early and take time to grow, discipline, monitor with patient to enable your target of investment excel and you can only make this investment when you patiently elongate it to enable you flourish well to the extend that when you harvest your profit from the investment it will still be progressing and not when you invest in six months time and you are inquisitive to get your profit in eight months time its wrong and getting patient to achieve what you invest is a good helping hands for future and at least when you invest in six months time you get your profit in one or two years or more for your effort to be reasonable and bear in mind that Bitcoin is not altcoin that can be hype or where many altcoins are built based on the basic structure provided by Bitcoin, Bitcoin cannot not make you poor when you know what you are doing and is more valuable and can make you rich when you wisely trade in futures.
If someone is on this forum then he's already supposed to know that he won't become rich overnight thanks to bitcoin. People must understand that good investments require a lot of patience, there is no secret formula to become rich, just do your research, invest smartly, and wait. You need to wait, that's the problem, many people don't know or don't want to wait.
Forum apart, it's important for anyone to know that money is not easy to come by, and if you are investing in a thing newly, you need to study it very wisely and know the promising nature of it, how you will go about it, how the history is and how patient you suppose to be so that you gain more from it and do not make mistakes. But if someone doesn't do or ensure all of that but thinks that Bitcoin/any asset is a means to gain quick money, that person will make mistakes and might lose all his investments. Specifically about Bitcoin, what I've noticed is that it has its season, that's the first thing anyone should learn. There are times you wait for years before buying (just like what is happening now), there should be no rush, and there will be a time when the asset has to be liquidated so that the investor will not go home empty-handed.
In other words, if you buy when you were supposed to sell, you lose, and if you sell when you were supposed to buy, you would lose. All investments, including Bitcoin, need experience and smartness, and once you know it very well, you can miss out on earning.
