Yes, I always amaze with what Bitcoin reach and that has exceeded my expectations especially for what already happened. Bitcoin has beyond many people expectation because when they invest in Bitcoin, they don't thinks that Bitcoin finally can reach the new ATH at $75k.
This can makes them wants to invest more in Bitcoin because they think that they can still do that. But this can make people greed because of wanting to make a big profit in a short term. Hopefully, they will not forget that reaching the next high price still need time.

You've been holding Bitcoin for many years and have been very active in the community. My question to you is when you look back and see how far you have come in your Bitcoin journey and based on your reason for buying your first bitcoin , would you say that Bitcoin has met or exceeded your expectations?
Bitcoin is capable of fulfilling everyone's expectations but for that Bitcoin needs to be trusted and held for the long term. If you have the expectation that you will buy bitcoins today and get huge profits from it tomorrow you will become rich. Bitcoin is an investment asset and the way you make a long-term investment in any business and any asset you have to have an objective is to ensure that you get the return you expect from Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has met my expectations but it has not exceeded it yet, based on the fact that this is my first circle that I'm experiencing. I wouldn't compare myself with those that have been hodling for two circles and more, when Bitcoin price was still very cheap and affordable. However I'm still happy that we're expecting a bull run where price will exceed $100k, that is when I can say that it has exceeded my expectations. My experience is that it's worth holding Bitcoin for the long term, as long as it is in your possession, it'll continue to exceed expectations by hitting new ATH at every bull run.

What I initially thought about Bitcoin, and what I see now, has completely changed my position. I knew about Bitcoin literally from the first days when they started talking about it, but to think that it could gain such value and such fame for me was at the level of fantasy. Everything that connects me with investments almost always had positive memories, excluding those moments when I was a beginner and was just getting acquainted and gaining knowledge about Bitcoin. Now, I do not allow thoughts that something can happen to Bitcoin so that it completely disappoints my position about it.

At start I didn't get much anything from it and got confused about on where to start. Gladly I find mining before and earning good profits before, but there are sudden instances that make me decide to quit with it then just decide to become a long term holder. So far I am satisfied with each result shown and still got happy with the results I got. Also we can grab lots of opportunities that's why its really so good to know bitcoin since for sure that we can grab the long term benefits for knowing it. As what I experience bitcoin exceed on my expectation since I earn more now compare before where we just earn few chunks.

Yes, sure it is and continues to do so. I've never had issues with Bitcoin as the most recognised cryptocurrency but its smart investment matters a lot more than hype. I made three kinds of investments with Bitcoin this year, HODLing is just one of them and all are successful even as the others earn more than it.With Bitcoin moving above its March ATH, it's no more a question for anyone again, the current level of about $75,000 has moved above the former ATH which means profits for every investor of the coin.
El Salvador must have been smiling again for their Bitcoin investment decisions, life is all about risk!

It is the latter, yeah it has exceeded my expectations.This is the reason why I am very happy that I've held for so long and made into reality my suggestions to others that it's best to hold. It won't hurt much to take some profits but if you want to make a big change for your lifetime, holding bitcoin serious is a real deal.
People have mocked a lot of us from several years ago and told nonsense things about Bitcoin and even attacked us personally, we've got our own battles on overcoming those mockery but here we are, we deserve to celebrate on how bitcoin is doing right now.

Probably exceeded expectations, because when I bought my first bitcoin it cost $4,000. I considered it more as an investment tool and watching how everything is going now, I think that even those who bought it at the peak for $70,000 will ultimately benefit greatly in the next 3-5 years.

For anyone who invested in BTC some ten years ago (and less), I don't think he can say anything other than that his expectations were far exceeded - at least as far as the price is concerned, since that's what we're talking about here, right? In other words, anyone who invested in BTC under $1000 and was smart enough to keep it long enough today doesn't worry too much about how much their pension will be and how much inflation will be, and which clown will be the next president or prime minister.
Looking back, I couldn't have invested my money and time in a better way than I did - but I also think that all those who think they missed something still have a chance to jump on this train. If in ten years the price of BTC is 5-10 times higher than today, I think that it is still a profit that the average person can hardly make with any investment.
Of course, Bitcoin is much more than just an investment, you also use it as a currency from time to time, because that way you only increase its value in the long term.

Honestly, going back in my mind to when I bought my first Bitcoin, I really never think how far it would go. It goes way over price to see huge corporations and even entire countries like El Salvador adopt Bitcoin. Moreover, the resilience of Bitcoin after events such as regulatory crackdowns and market crashes has strengthened my belief in Bitcoin. It's more than a digital asset-Bitcoin is a movement.
I'd say Bitcoin has done really well, much better than I have expected, considering all these new use cases, with this great ecosystem forming, what with all these exchanges, wallets, and payment processors now around. I don't know; it's like something's gonna come out of it, and it's cool to be part of it, I guess.

Bitcoin has exceeded my expectations. I'm not a very early adopter but I have known Bitcoin since 2015 but I've been active on this forum since 2016. I remember the time when Bitcoin was worth a few hundred dollars and people who were posting that Bitcoin would reach the 10K and 20K USD price range, were considered crazy, everyone, including myself, was ironical towards them but in reality, they weren't crazy, they were true. In 2017, I thought that 1000$ was the max that Bitcoin could reach but when it surpassed 1K and didn't stop growing, that was the moment when I realized that Bitcoin not only met but exceeded my expectations.

The BTC-train never stops, it only propels forward and becomes better with each cycle
Hopefully, everything will be as good as we imagine it to be.
November 06, 2024, 02:40:59 AM
Yes, it has met expectations. Even though I didn't get to start holding early enough, i can still say I've benefitted from it and you know, for a coin that's so volatile, you'd think it won't get this far because people will be afraid that they may not see returns for their investment, but no, it has been going strong for 16 years and I'm sure we've not seen the best of Bitcoin yet.

I wasn’t expecting much at first, but seeing how bullish everyone was in the forums, I just went along with the hype. Since I stayed active here, Bitcoin helped me dive into the whole crypto market, and it really opened my eyes to all the opportunities out there. Most of my investments are in Bitcoin, but I can't deny that I made some good profits with altcoins back then too - it just boosted my gains to levels I never imagined before getting into Bitcoin.
I’m proud to be among the semi-early adopters. I started in 2016 when Bitcoin was still pretty cheap (was around $400) compared to now, and 2017 was the first bull run I experienced... I’ll never forget that.

Did you want to get your bags off after your first rally for BTC, or did you never even have such a thought?
I never expected the bull run to happen at that time, but when it did, I decided to sell a part of my stash. I’m in it for the long term, but it’s also nice to enjoy some profit and keep the rest for the next bull run. During the bear market, after Bitcoin dumped hard from its 2017 ATH, it was like everything was on sale.
What helped me was not putting too much of my money into Bitcoin, so I didn’t panic. I was ready to go all in again, thinking if Bitcoin never recovered, at least I had already cashed out some, so I didn’t lose everything I had risked.
You did well in that you diversified your funds and didn't put them all in one basket.
Hopefully, future rallies for BTC will be as good as the one you had. Cheers!

My question to you is when you look back and see how far you have come in your Bitcoin journey and based on your reason for buying your first bitcoin , would you say that Bitcoin has met or exceeded your expectations?
Yes for me its gonna exceed my expectation on that front. Now that the US president is pro bitcoin and crypto, we can expect some favorable attempt for larger adoption. No OGs can argue how a President mandate a different sector but with the help of Trump this could be a game changer for crypto industry. BTC is already $75k from the looks of it, and the guy who put $15 mil. on Trump got lucky
So I do think the rally is going to grow stronger from these elections.

It had not been long I enter the industry but still Bitcoin has met my expectations already. I entered after the bull market and although I did not see how the market was before I entered, I have been doing my research and so far everything that I read about how Bitcoin used to behave have already happened. I initially thought we might not see another highest price for Bitcoin as I was asking myself, who are the people that will be buying Bitcoin at this price but yesterday a new highest price was reach and I got my answer, that there are still people willing to buy Bitcoin regardless of the price of Bitcoin. I have already made some profit from when I have bought my first Bitcoin after a year and some months and I now believe fully that there are more profits to come.

For me, yes, I learned a lot when I started to own Bitcoin, it's not only the investment returns I gained, but with lessons on how money works, and how the financial system works and I started to value money or budget things on me.Bitcoin for me is not only for investment but overall, although most people are only in Bitcoin because of profits or easy money and some of them are losing money because of some greediness.
If you know what BTC stands for - you will never be greedy with it even if you view it as an investment. You will never have the thought of getting too early or too late with it. You will just know what to do.
