Topic: Finally I did it (I am happy to join). - page 5. (Read 2017 times)

I noticed that we have many members having this same style of making post which might not be real, and you're right with what you said. These days in the Forum is like some people have to do whatever it takes to get that attention, recognition and to top it all the merit. People can go as far as to lie to get that merit or whatever their aim is.
From what you said, I don't really believe some of these achievement we see here on the Forum. Having that amount of BTC and showing it can be true but the question to the OP is "are you the owner or you just saw it somewhere and decide to let us take a look and make it look like it's yours".
Is really hard to tell who's saying the truth on the Forum.

Yes, it is clear that newcomers to the Bitcoin space are nervous. But I say that taking action instead of speculating is important. Cryptocurrency like Bitcoin is more than just money; its a way of thinking. People who are new should jump in, but not without thinking. Take action now instead of waiting for a price drop that might never happen. Time spent in the market is more valuable than getting in and out of it at the right time. Experience is just as important as education. Knowing things in theory but not using them in real life is like having a car but no gas; it wont get you very far. Therefore, I say, jump in. Beginnel slowly, keep learning, and let the trip happen. Bitcoin is really growing because people and their finances are changing.

Good job OP! Welcome to bitcoin investment. With bitcoin, you know it's safer and more secured rather than putting your funds into altcoins. Even though the price is quite costly, but once you see your future profits, it's always worth the wait. With bitcoin long term hodling, you know that there are massive profits waiting ahead if you only know how to manage your investment and be more patient to hold for long term.

My piece of advice is that, just continue to be positive with bitcoin regardless of its high volatility. If you have established faith, then rewards will be huge in the future.

Well, congrats on your first purchase, for sure it wasn't the best price to buy since the market kinds skyrocketed from around 20k$ but in my opinion, there were no better time to buy Bitcoin, so the best strategy is just to go Dollar Cost Average, buying Bitcoin every week or every month is probably the best strategy since you could easily accumulate Bitcoin and as long as you are going to sell your Bitcoin at a higher market price your always going to make a profit in the end when you are going to sell it, there are also some option or modifications that you could do on your investment like increasing your buying lower or at the just lowering it down vice versa especially if the market price continues to drop, it is a great strategy to increase your buying power so that you could get more volume on your every purchase.

Lastly, the most important thing in investing is the mindset, personally because of cryptocurrency and Bitcoin my mindset has changed when it comes to finances and investing, all of this is just going to waste if your easily going to sell it like you just want to buy something your just gonna sell your Bitcoin i mean that I not really how investments work.

It's certain that OP was inspired to invest in Bitcoin by the member whose name was mentioned. Apart from that, my opinion is also correct, never invest in Bitcoin because of FOMO, the results will definitely not be good, but if OP is a consistent person then I'm sure it will be difficult for him to make a loss, investing in Bitcoin is not difficult, as long as we believe in Bitcoin and target long-term investment, our investment in Bitcoin will not be a loss.
discipline - having a job that supports daily habits - a healthy environment - being patient in investing in bitcoin is something that people who are successful in investing in bitcoin always do.

who the fuck is step works?

Whoever gave you the advise of buying buying at this time did you well and I’m actually applauding your efforts and I hope they get crowned with success.
I tried converting the rate of BTC to usd as at your purchase day and it seems you bought almost $1500 worth of BTC and that’s a lot of money in my local currency and I want to advise that you try as much as possible to hold for much more longer time and definitely you’ve have more reasons to smile.
Cheers.

I guess it's normal for everyone given that they don't have the experience of diving into bitcoin and just only rely on people opinions and speculations. Investing into crypto needs some money and the risk of losing that money is the cause of their anxiety. Though, it can be reduced with a sufficient knowledge about bitcoin and how it performed in the past years.

My advice to newbie is not to listen to those influencers first, I believe that gaining the knowledge by yourself by doing a research is the one that will make you confident enough to make the first move into investing. I can't deny that there's a good influencers out there but from what I am seeing, I think that majority of the influencers I see is just hyping, paid or has no care about there followers. In fact, some of them are just in the crypto space last bull market which makes it insane.

Most of the new people still have a large level of anxiety and indeed I agree with what you said because new people sometimes prefer to pay attention and see some speculations made by influencers or those who have been in crypto for longer than taking their own actions and taking action for their first steps so in this case there really needs to be appreciation for anyone who does not talk too much when they are sure they are directly in bitcoin with the provision of learning and research done before.

New people should indeed do brave things for the first step regardless of the price which has now shown an increase when compared to the previous few months but this should still be done because waiting for the decline to occur again I don't think it's the right thing to do at this time because surely it takes longer.
Even if the choice is good, I think it will waste time because what they learn in the end is only theory without daring to jump directly as a form of action from what should have been done from the start.

Honestly, I was afraid of the risk but when I came to my right senses, I then realized that there is nothing in life that is not about risk (mostly
when one wants to make money but not quick money). That's why I have to zero my mind and risk $1400 worth of 1.7 million in my corrency, at first, I didn't want to buy such a huge amount but as I have zero my mind to risk it, there is no going back (I have risk what I can afford to lose) so there is no going back.
One of the reason why I was afraid to invest was because I was, I don't know if I should say scammed or something, I deposited $2k on stepwork, and I was so frustrated because I invested with what I can not afford to lose.

This what keep showing anytime I try to access my account.

Really sad story there mate,  and I agree with you,  on the fact that if we don't have a large reserve,  it will be hard to hold on to our investment,  just like in your case,  you were lucky to have owned the 2 bitcoins at that time when the price was low,  but then you where forced by situations to sell them off,  but I wish in ops own situation he is able to hold his bitcoin for at least a decades before he sells to take the most out of his investment,  so many,  bitcoin is already too expensive,  but at some points,  we still need to accept the reality that there is need to get in regardless of what the price may be at the time.

So ops have done well to have decided to buy the bitcoin regardless of what the current price may be and what becomes of the future price,  I believe ops have a long-term investment mindset for this since he bought a relatively significant amount of Bitcoin at a go.

+2 merit to you, this is a really great step you have taken and i remember the encouragement I had when I actually bought mine although it wasn't as massive as this but it was the beginning of a great Bitcoin journey and am glad you have also started yours. I encourage you continue hoarding as much as you can before the bull season comes and we eventually witness a new ATH. But I would just advice to do everything possible to avoid messing with your holdings as many investor started and ended halfway there.

Congratulations mate! I am happy you have your first Bitcoin. 😁 You are now a certified Bitcoin owner and investor! Just keep your private keys or seed phrase safe from prying eyes. As a signature campaign participant I also has Bitcoin investment and it functions like DCA though it is only worth a few dollars but it is better than nothing. 😁

this is why you need passion at least for this market for you not to feel so stressed once you put your hard-earned money at stake on this volatile market. if you joined in this investment, supposedly you should know the risks involved and the possible consequences that may happen. because if not, you will indeed feel despair of this market later on, and maybe cursed that you got in here.

hence, as you've seen for some users who got burned and left early, they are saying nasty things towards this market because they don't fully understand what's going on in this market. they thought, once they joined they will be reaping profits after profits without suffering any losses. and that's the reason why they are getting disappointed and so spreading some negative experiences to others, which can give negative notion about this market.

for others who continue their journey, they should at least do one of the following:
- don't stop learning, continue educating yourself by reading related topics on this market
- accept that there may be losses on the way, you are not always in the winning side
- invest what you can afford to lose, a very common piece of advice in any type of investment
- at least do your own due diligence for every coin/token you want to buy
- monitor its market and discard it if you think you can't keep up with their progress

It was really a good time to get into Bitcoin and it feels good seeing new people join Bitcoin. We might be growing slowly but surely, a lot of people are embracing Bitcoin and that is something to celebrate.

Bitcoin is a great opportunity that many are yet to see or embrace. With buys like this, a lot of people will be motivated to start their Bitcoin journey as well.

It is not about the amount of money or when someone joins the crypto world, it's the cheer that they get in that makes me happy. There are so many people who cheer to be here, and that makes me super happy, we are talking about a lot of people who just ends up taking a plunge in the bitcoin world.

When someone buys bitcoin and that is something that creates a lot of stress for them, I do not find it anything good, I mean I am glad that they still joined even though they fear the risk, but I am not super cheery about that at all. But, when someone joins bitcoin world and get some, and they are super excited and happy about it? Now that really makes me super happy because they are finally in and they are happy about joining as well.

At first it is a little difficult and confusing, over time you will get used to it and will feel addicted after successfully getting the first results from your investment in Bitcoin. Congratulations on your first investment, you have done well based on what is shown in the picture. I'm sure, you won't be the last person to do it, after you there will be other people around you who will start investing in Bitcoin.
After successfully moving money in the form of Bitcoin, you must keep it safe. Store your Bitcoin in a wallet where you can control the private key, because you can control the Bitcoin whenever you want.

The only opportunity we should take while investing into Bitcoin is to find the opportunity when to sell for the bigger profit. The time you sell your holdings will determine your profit. It is also important to not panic and not become greedy as well. You sell early, you will end up with less profit. Also, if you hold it more than you should have, you will lose that opportunity and end up with less profit in this scenario as well. Instead of a random number, choose a target that you want to make profit from.
Having a fixed target of making profit will help to avoid panic sells and losses because of greed. Never marry your wallet. This is a line I have heard from someone in this forum that I can't quite recall right now but to me, it was great advice. If your profit has reached your target, just sell it. You can reinvest it again. That way we will have no regret.

Congratulations,  for your first attempt in your bitcoin journey, if you really understand bitcoin it will be an investment that you won't regret about it. Firstly you have to know that bitcoin investment is a longtime investment,  so you need to be prepared for this. Never allow the market to be distraction to you, bitcoin is a volatile and you will surely see the price go up and down, going dip it doesn't mean the price will remain dip, it is just the movement of market.

It is also necessary to provide education on how to do good management for the investment.
Anytime is a good time, but the right time is not because of the numbers, but waiting for the price to be at the bottom support so that you have the opportunity to profit more.

Don't buy because of FOMO because you will only get too high a price.
But if you want to hold back the long term, it will be quite a long journey depending on how high the price target you want to achieve.

Opportunities will exist at any time, it remains only to determine whether the opportunity is suitable for you or not.
But it is necessary to pay attention to what are the risks, do not panic too much when everything drops suddenly.
