Bitcoin is now the headline in most financial newspapers because its price has increased significantly. But the majority of the people who are rushing to buy Bitcoin now, are just driven by the desire to make a quick profit. But they fail to understand that the ideal time to invest is not during the bull season. [/B[But if some of them are willing to learn, they might end up gaining from the sector if they are patient enough.
I totally disagree with you on that bolded part because it is Bitcoin we are talking about there is no time ideal than investing when you have your money readily available, there is nothing absolutely wrong buying even at the peak price, it is pretty much ideal to invest during the bull season and bear season, one thing we should always understand is that Bitcoin is best appreciated over a long term hence there is no point timing the market conditions before investing, secondly the market can be very uncertain which can make you miss good buying opportunities while waiting for an ideal time to invest.
You are correct that the best time to buy Bitcoin is when you can afford it. If you are adopting the DCA stractegy to accumulate, it is fine to buy at any given price. But if your option is Lump sum pattern, you will agree that the ideal time to buy is what the price have dropped significantly.
My response is targeted at people who see Bitcoin as a fast means to make money. There are many people whose intention is to buy Bitcoin now and sell it next year. My advice to them is that they wouldn't get the best deal now, maybe if they had invested two years ago, it would have been more profitable.
Yes the market is uncertain but based on historical pattern, there will always be a bull and bear season. Based on my assumption, it is possible that Bitcoin might drop below $70k within this coming cycle.
