Before thinking of investing in any sector what one considers is how long you are willing to hold. Let's take the history down to how investment all began. Moving from the era of Real estate to stocks to metals to oil blocks and now digital assets we would agree those who made it big in all this investment options were those who had the patience to hold.
These assets dont need to be held for more than 5-8years. Of course you can do that too and you will appreciate the rise in value but you could possibly make more by selling it at a certain time and buying more such assets. Stocks might be the only exception to this, they give dividends and you will probably not sell but only buy more.
This kept me wondering why one would even think of investing if they don't have the patient to hold. If you can't develop the hold attitude then the best option is to do a physical business where you can monitor your profit and see them come in regularly. If it must be crypto then you must be willing to hold and wait
Nah, its a wrong narrative. Bitcoin is a deflationary currency. It brought with it a bigger idea of hodling. Compared to what you compared with above, like Real Estate, Oil, Gold, these can deprecate in value. A lot of risks are associated with them which can be avoided compared to investment in Bitcoin.
Real estate's location may become bad - how will you sell it for profit then? Bitcoin will not have this problem, but rather it's own problems of non-regulation, risks of being outlawed etc.
