Topic: Have You Accomplished What Brought You to Bitcoin? (Read 384 times)

I don't think many of us came into the crypto market to just take profits and leave. We are all here to benefit long from the market in as much as the market still exist. There are many opportunities in the market apart from investing in Bitcoin. My major reason why I invested in Bitcoin is to keep making profits from the market and I don't think the aim would be achieved in the main time. I hope to see the price of Bitcoin to reach like $500,k and more and I surely know it will come to pass.

Which made me jump into bitcoin investment, if I'm not mistaken, when the bitcoin price was busy breaking through its ATH. At that time perhaps many people realized the potential of Bitcoin, and I was one of them. From that day I started studying it very carefully, until I decided to buy my first bitcoin.

And based on my own achievements in bitcoin investment. Currently I have not sold the bitcoins I own. Because it's a shame if you sell it now, I'm afraid the price could rise again in the next few months. So I will wait more patiently, so that the results are maximum.

I hope OP knows that the way they arranged the topic of this thread points to the asset nature of Bitcoin which has continued to be a subject of debate. I, for one, also believe that Bitcoin is seen more like an asset than a means of payment.

As for accomplishing what purpose one aimed at getting hooked on Bitcoin, I can tell you that it will be hard to get an honest answer on that. Man is insatiable by nature. The more he gets the more he wants more. The pun there's is intentional and that's to buttress the extent of greed that's inherent in man.

I should say big profits made me brought into bitcoin. Since I worked before an 8-hour day job and only paid a minimum wage, I have to find a side job that will offer me a bigger compensation than my regular job. That’s when the time I was being introduced to bitcoin with a friend of mine. At first I was still hesitant thinking a lot would say that bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme, so I feel like asking myself if I am really ready to take risk with bitcoin. And thankfully, I was able to succeed from my bitcoin investment and gradually earning money so I can achieve my goal.

I have succeeded leaving my day job and now, I’m earning better than before. But if ask I have become rich already, that thing I still don’t know when I’ll be able to achieve that but I believe with the opportunities from bitcoin, I know I can do it as long as there’s faith, courage and self-determination.

I think we are the same, it is exactly same thing that brought you to bitcoin that also brought me here actually.

I can still remember vividly in 2015, I was working for a polyethylene company, a 6 to 7 job actually, this is to say that, we resume work 6 am everyday, and close 7pm, it was a very extruciating job since it involved us operating heavy machinaries, and by the end of the month, we are paid peanuts as salaries after having made millions for the company.

I started searching for a better and easier life, I discovered a ponzi scheme we knew as mmm at that time, my desperation for a new source of income forced me to join the ponzi scheme, I had a boss who was my upliner, I invested money on that ponzi scheme which I later lost, by the time, my upliner had little knowledge of bitcoin and then told us(his downliners) about it, but not in full details, I on my own decided to find out more about bitcoin, I started searching through Google and that was how I found this forum.

Long story short, I have not actually achieved the of financial stability I want, which is actually one of my primary reason for being in crypto, but I am most comfortable with my life at the moment, as I no longer work for anybody, I am my own boss and now have my own business, but then, the hustle never stops until life itself comes to an end.

Bitcoin's like a magnet for folks tired of the banks breathing down their necks. No more middlemen, just you and your digital stash, chilling in your own vault. Freedom, though? That's a different story.

Sure, Bitcoin can crack open doors you wouldn't find in a regular bank, but it's no magic potion to freedomland. Think of it as a badass toolbox, not a teleport. It'll teach you how to boss your own cash, navigate the financial jungle, and take responsibility for your dough. Those skills, forged in the Bitcoin fires, definitely up your chances of achieving freedom later, but it's still a long game, not a quick sprint. No guarantees, just potential.

I will say not at all, this is just the beginning, Bitcoin investment has turn our lives so beautiful and can never be satisfied because one good turn deserves another so, I have been so happy and glad to have been part and perce of this great opportunity and I must say I am not.

 As a person, you might feel a sense of accomplishment if you have achieved your goal of gaining financial independence through investing in Bitcoin. You might also feel a sense of accomplishment if you have contributed to the development of the Bitcoin community or the wider cryptocurrency ecosystem. However, it's important to remember that your worth is not measured by your financial success or any other external measure. Your true value comes from within, and no amount of money or possessions can ever take that away from you. Ultimately, the only person who can decide if you have accomplished what brought you to Bitcoin ......

I am still on the process mate because there are mistakes i have committed back in the days that my main Goal in bitcoin have failed ,  now I am starting with strong motivation and dedication so it will take me another years to achieve but never that I will lose my hopes and dreams .
there are people who succeed in early stage , there are failing up to now but the main thing here is to never lose your goal. keep it kicking and keep it to the top of your dreams.

I have accomplished one, and TBH, I accomplished it many years ago already.
Freedom. Freedom to do everything I wanted, or at least I had more time to do the things that I wanted to do. Unlike when I was working for 8 hours, I have more freedom now to travel to the places that I want to go.

Is this my end goal? No, it isn't and I have another goal that I want to accomplish with the help of Bitcoin. Live off of dividends with the help of Bitcoin of course. I'm not saying that Bitcoin itself will give me dividends, but you know what I mean if you're an investor. Right now, I'm far, far away from that goal, but that's my end goal. I need to add more income sources to quicken the process.

Financial Freedom, and dividends. Sounds crazy, but who cares? That's my goal that I want to accomplish in the future with the help of Bitcoin.

I call bitcoin the most beautiful gift that plays an important role in fulfilling my needs. If we talk about how much, then the answer is too much. Until now, Bitcoin has changed my life from being unemployed to having a fairly decent income. There are countless benefits that I have received from Bitcoin, starting from giving monthly rations to my parents, getting married, owning a house, a small family with all its harmony, which cannot be separated from the benefits. that I got. Bitcoin became my bridge to achieve anything I could not achieve before.

Curiosity and financial independence drove my Bitcoin journey. I was drawn to decentralization and worldwide, unregulated transactions like you. The path is more complicated than expected. Although revolutionary, Bitcoin is subject to the laws we intended to avoid. This reality check changed my goals.

Bitcoin gives me flexibility and control over my time, but volatility and regulation complicate it. Like you, I've balanced digital and traditional income. I stay hopeful. Digital finance is changing, and Bitcoin is important. Strategic planning and financial ecosystem adaption can lead to financial independence, in my opinion. Its a difficult path with great potential for those who persevere.

Although I had heard about it, I never gave it much thought as I didn't think I had enough money to invest in something that would already have such a high price. However, I later learned that you could accumulate as much as you like. Furthermore, technology is just outstanding and superior to everything in the financial system; it's akin to a new invention and period. We all learn something new every day, and while things were unusual when I first started, I've now gotten used to it and realized that persistence pays off.  Because if you hurry anything in bitcoin you won't get what you want. And it been decentralized is just amazing  and the government in their power is trying to make it centralized. And it improves well than anyone can think. They have not even seen the wonders of bitcoin yet.

Curiosity about darkweb and everything about it what makes me bring into this industry then afterwards I love what I discover since this totally change a lot especially on investment matter since by bitcoin earning opportunity available online I can say that I earn much on it compare to my 9-5 job I worked before. I can't say my exact figures achieve on bitcoin but all I can say that I manage to quit my job and put up some good business which generate me a passive income right now.

Its really good to know bitcoin especially that we have good community here where we can communicate people and their interest since we can ride up with the methods discuss and somehow earn with it since discussions made here all have sense compare to any misleading information we can get on other platforms.

the quest for financial freedom has always been tye number one factor that sponsors most journey and mine is not left out. It was in my quest to increase my financial productivity that I learnt about cryptocurrency and bitcoin being the first and most popular of them all made me join the forum so I can learn from the multitude of experienced individual already doing well in the field and also get some financial benefit along the line while learning and contributing to the forum.

I haven't stayed all that long in the forum but I can't say that my journey hasn't yielded some great result and so I must say that I have come a bit far in the forum and I am still climbing and striving I do even more than what I have done at the moment. 2024 is just by the corner and I'm hoping for a great journey ahead of me.

what brought me to bitcoin ? Was looking for extra income that time because I have a new born
and needs to earn more than my workpay  so ia circled around internet and yes there was this mentor and i become
interested and start reading about bitcoin in this forum and yes now its been years from that day.

asking about what have I accomplished? I am proud to say that all my savings here in crypto
helps me live better in pandemic while many are struggling and looking for funds to sustain their living so indeed that
is more than better for me to realized how best bitcoin is.

If the goal was breaking free of a 9-to-5 wage slave life, with all the trappings and inconveniences that come with living an existence of mediocrity, then yes, I'd say I accomplished that. Being in bitcoin/crypto 100% does come with some sheer terror due to the volatility of the industry, and a lack of safety net afforded by regular jobs.

If the goal was to be filthy rich, then no, I am far from having accomplished that.  

That's OK. At least I don't take orders from anyone or have to compete in the rat race. Having that peace of mind - along with being able to wake up whenever I damn well please - provides a great degree of satisfaction in my day-to-day existence.

You wrote a very nice message. I hope you can achieve the profit you target.

Usually everyone enters the market initially to make a profit and stays in the market after learning how the market works. Learning is a great thing and we can learn a lot thanks to this forum. Investing consciously is more important than most things. Investing after gaining information minimizes the margin of error.

My main goal why I decide to enter bitcoin is mostly the potential profits that only bitcoin can provide. I have known a friend who had made significant changes in his life brought by bitcoin, and that reason motivated me to engage in the forum so I can be completely educated about bitcoin. And  I've no regrets with that because aside from the profits I earned through my investment and my signature campaign's weekly income, I also gained wide knowledge about bitcoin and the whole crypto market, even with altcoins and shitcoins.

Now, if you're going to ask me if my goal was already accomplished, I say not all of them. But I'm thankful that I'm slowly achieving some of those, and it might take another 5-10 years before I can say that I've got it all already. Thanks to bitcoin and bitcointalk.

When someone has benefited from investing in Bitcoin of course they will be very happy and of course they have a good understanding of what they are doing, if you say you have built a business from the results of the investment you made of course you have achieved success in investing in Bitcoin and you You can invest with the business profits you get.

In my opinion, those who say Bitcoin is useless and there are also those who say it is a fraud, I think they have tried investing in Bitcoin with less knowledge and they failed in the investment and did not learn from their mistakes so they only got failure, but for those who can correct the failure and going back to study it, I think they will be able to become successful from this investment.

Financial freedom is what brought me to Bitcoin. I believe that I have a bright future with Bitcoin compared to having the "8 hours job". Actually I am a volunteer law enforcer and we are given like $50 monthly incentives. I know that it was not fair but yeah that is how "volunteer" works. Aside from that, I am also earning from a signature campaign like $120 a month. I think I will make this as a full time job being on the forum because this is the only way I can do both, serving as a law enforcer and being a Bitcoiner at the same time.

Even I am still studying the fields of cryptocurrency and bitcoin. I'm not an expert community investor here, and I'm not a rich person either.
I got into the Bitcoin industry because my friend told me that I should learn it and that I could make money from it.

And that's what I did, and I also found out and discovered that it has the capability to provide earnings, which is really true because I've been here for a few years. I've been getting profit here in Bitcoin, and one of the main tools is crypto trading, signature campaigns, and bounties in altcoins as well.

op I agree with you because many youths are getting employment through Bitcoin. The popularity of Bitcoin is increasing day by day so much that people are showing interest to invest in Bitcoin along with their job. Of course, poverty may not be completely controlled through Bitcoin. But our country's economy will be very active if our country's government declares legitimacy. Then many young generations will get success in life through trading in Bitcoin.

I couldn't say more but getting into Bitcoin helps me a lot in terms of financial stability --such a great achievement is hard to get if I was only relying on my day job. And with the help of my Bitcoin income, I have a business already and letting go of my stable job.

Many people are saying Bitcoin is useless and a big scam but we have proven it wrong. Is their problem not believing us, only they can see that we are improving while these people are working hard but still no achievements. It is the interest that brought me here and I tried even with limited funds and knowledge but all of it can be learned somehow and all the efforts have been rewarded.

When I first came to know about Bitcoin I didn't pay much attention to it but when Bitcoin came up again and again I became quite fascinated about it. I see that it is a disciple of technology and potential that consistently attracts me. Although I don't have a good idea about bitcoin I'm just learning but can still guess that it is a symbol of economic freedom. We never thought that without any third party we can transect money but Bitcoin is a technology that removes that third party, removed from restrictions. There is no restriction to send or receive as much they want. A technology that can offer all this will surely be the most valuable asset of the next generation.

Earnings and profits are the things that brought me to Bitcoin.  While I stumbled on cryptocurrency, I was looking for a side job online where I could have extra earnings, I even got into Pay to Click subscription and tried my luck there but to no avail, I ended up spending more since I had not established the affiliate needed to establish bonuses.  Until I stumbled on some cryptocurrency advertisement that lead me to this forum.

I can say that my purpose of earning extra income has been accomplished since knowing cryptocurrency enabled me to take advantage of trading and crypto investment.  It is that I sold my earned BTC early due to financial needs but I was able to rebuild our termite-infested house into a much better one.

nice question.

I had a Mac mini hot-rod upgrade business on ebay.
I came to bitcointalk because apple decided to spot weld the Mac mini and upgrades were not practical. (thank you Jobs and Cook)
I wanted to have some part time work and I like to post.

I accomplished that. It has been a long journey. I went from a Mac Pro with 1 gpu mining on Bitminter burning 350 watts to a 275kilowatt farm.

Never was a buy and hold guy I was and am a miner so watts into wealth is what I did.

I have been okay but will say I am not as wealthy as I want to be. Just far more than I thought was possible in 2012.

This is a personal thing I believe it's unwise to expose to the public but I haven't accomplished what brought me into Bitcoin although I learn about BTC by accident after being a victim of shitcoin investment.

Bitcoin is never regulated but there's a chance for it to be regulated if investors and holders don't invest and hold by the "not your keys, not your coin" popular phrase after the BTC spot ETF approval.

Ok but make sure you plan things very well and make sure you have developed a skill that will provide you an opportunity to side job before you quit your 9-5 job because of what happened to this forum user years ago.

Bitcoin technology, adopting and acceptance is continually and as long as the technology continues, I will also keep adjusting to suit the in contemporary scene. I actually learn about Bitcoin as an asset which can generate profit and that was the reason I came aboard and for the reason that got me into Bitcoin, I saw that most people who invested into Bitcoin when the price was low around 2019 and 2020 was able to earn a huge profit when the price pumped during the 2021 bull Run and I believe that with the amount of Bitcoin that i have managed to accumulate, I will also be in profit during the next bull market and that's going to be a goal archived. I never believe I will actually introduced the acceptance of Bitcoin in my business but after I got into Bitcoin and on this forum, I actually realized I can introduce the acceptance of Bitcoin in my business and when I did, I saw some customers coming to make payment in Bitcoin, it was actually an exciting experience for me, man.

Although, I am not yet satisfied with what I have archived with Bitcoin, I must say that I am greedy about that (if actually that's a right word to use), my arms are still wide open to accept more of the new development about Bitcoin that will unfold in the future.

It wasn't that too important before to know that it's too early to invest. And you know what people were saying before? It was all for the tech, a new thing, a revolutionary internet money that we'll be part of it in the future. Something like that and I was like, there's the opportunity that can seen through it that it's just more than money but also an asset class that someone can easily understand if you're broke or even someone who has a good status of life. So, that has brought me with those reasons and I'm still with the same thought of it and fortunately, I wasn't wrong with my choice when there were too many distractions, FUD and a lot of negative stuff telling me to stop this craziness. But I am glad that this craziness and idea has brought me into a better pasture.

Honestly, what brought me here is the potential profits on Bitcoin investment and trading. I've some friends that already invested and traded in Bitcoin/altcoins for a long time, they told me the potential profits got from Bitcoin. I learned it on some articles and I joined this forum because I know it is the main place for Bitcoiners to communicate. I got a lot of information, knowledge, and experience in this forum. They are very helpful for me, I can do investment/trading properly because of the help from many people here.

However, I still can't accomplish my goal yet. I realize that I have some Bitcoin on my wallet and I also joined signature campaign paid in BTC weekly but I have a bigger dream. Not sure how long I can get the dream, I hope it can be achieved gradually in 1-2 years. I plan to achieve all the dream in the next 5-6 years.

Let's go in parts...!

Well, in my case the changes were immediate, in terms of fees it is something that changed my life, literally spending $60 for commissions on international transfers at a few cents or a couple of dollars when The ordinals are not screwing up fees, yeah, that is profit, in the case payment, again, very nice for certain pays where it used to involve my credit cards, that has made me earn money indirectly without having to enter the price of bitcoin as profit.

Consequently, I could mention a couple more things that are not directly associated with price volatility, but the point is that bitcoin as such does not change lives overnight, it is rather a process that adapt to your situations, so you start putting it into your daily life, and you will start to see some kind of return.

It's in progress but Bitcoin has definitely improved my standard of living and now I atleast have luxury of having frequent vacations or to buy stuffs for my family members which a middle class person has to think multiple times and decide but I am yet to reach the stage due to which I got into Bitcoin but soon I will reach there are every year I am getting closer to the goal of having my own business with the money I make from Bitcoin and set up something like apartments which will give me recurring income.

I guess I have answered this question in so many ways.

Well, like I have said before in my other posts, what brought me into Bitcoin was the quest to have a side job and/or earn while studying in college, but I suppose that narrative has changed due to the knowledge I have acquired here in the forum.

At least I'm no longer looking for something to do right now because I'm busy here already and training myself very well on what I know so that I can establish a service here in the forum that can fetch me some little earnings while I'm in college. Although I am still very young, if not the youngest in the forum... Lol  and more goals have been set since I got here, so I'm not sure I have accomplished anything yet.

Not really that able to quit up into my dayjob but atleast it did really be able to contribute generally or play a big part that im really that earning much which is way more than with my day job salary on which
this had been always my target in the first time that i had stepped my foot into this space on which im really that trying out to look for another side of income on which its been hard but it wasnt what impossible.
Even up to these years on which even i do hit up that target or goal then i do at least have found myself that im really that sustaining or able to make money since i have learnt up skills like trading
on which i do really be able to make profits on which it is really that a great help but of course i have passed through lots of failures and challenges.

Its never been that easy on making yourself that succeed on things on which you are thriving it to happen. It is really just that a matter of perseverance and seriousness on how
you would really be able to achieve your goals and wishes but of course it would be mattering on the effort and time that been spent.

Not yet, but I'm already starting to see and feel that I'm almost there. With my patience and persistency to keep going with bitcoin and in this forum, I know fate will favor me in the end. I just need extra push and hopefully I will be there soon, reaping what I have been sowing in the first place. My goal is not actually to become rich and live life in luxuries, but to live life where money is not the main problem anymore and that financial security will be achieved hopefully in its perfect time.

I know this is not too hard but not too easy as well, that's why I need to keep it going. And probably when the time comes that I already have accomplished it, maybe I will aim for another one, hehe, the perks of being a human who will never have satisfaction in the long run.

I think that I've accomplished a lot in life because of Bitcoin. I don't have that much happiness in life as I am a simple guy and just wanting to see happily as I go with my family.

But as time goes by, I am still a human and I want to achieve more with Bitcoin and that's why I am holding and waiting for the right time to sell as well.

I can relate to OPs story and we're on the same page about opportunities and Bitcoin has made it easier for people like us.

People always expect great things and their hopes are never fulfilled but remain unfulfilled. Likewise, learning and gaining knowledge about Bitcoin will never be complete, but will remain incomplete. For example, when you learn about Bitcoin, you have to learn a lot about it, gradually gaining something and gaining knowledge. Similarly, if you are investing now, if you can earn money from it in the future, you will have more demand. So invest in Bitcoin and learn more about it so that you can move forward and earn money in the future.

I have been in this industry for a few years, and like others who have been here for a long time, I have not yet totally achieved what I want to achieve through cryptocurrency, but I cannot deny that at least in terms of financial profit, it provides support to me and my family.

But this time, with the upcoming bull run, somehow I have some cryptocurrencies that I think will give me a good profit in the future. I am hoping that it will come true this time.

Can't really say what I have accomplished, but pretty much I got lot stuff when I knew about Bitcoin and as a person I can feel that I can become a better person because how I can manage my emotion and management. But still it's not enough, there is still lot of stuff to do in Bitcoin as an investment and as a technology. So still looking forward with anything Bitcoin can offer in the future.

I became interested when looking for investment ideas in 2014 and bitcoin was going through a bear market so I thought that it could be a good time to try it. I was reading about mining, even cloud mining. I tried different altcoins and eventually learned that bitcoin is the safest bet.

My goal was to park my money in something that doesn't inflate like fiat money and I had no real time goal in mind. I knew that it's possible for me to wait for years if it comes to this as long as at the bare minimum I get 10% profit from this investment. In the first 3 years i got to something like 2000% and from that moment I knew that it's where I'll be keeping my money for decades.

Bitcoin is diverse and complex,and one might never accomplish it all,because of this dynamic nature there are more to learn,as for me I haven't,am just beging to learn about it,one of my goals is to know so much about bitcoin that I could travel across the globe to enlightenment people about it,have an exchange medium for it and basically leave off it..To achieve all this I can say 1 to 2 years of extensive research and learning I might be very close to that.

I am not there yet and I don’t think I am close to achieving that yet. Before now, when I first learned about bitcoin and joined bitcointalk forum, I don’t have an idea of what my plan is with bitcoin. I just knew that it was a digital currency and many people around talk a lot of positive things about it, so decided to learn and join. Till today, I don’t have a clear vision of what I want in bitcoin but for his financial freedom, it is amongst the thing I cherish the most with it and make me expose more to the digital community and learn new things.

The desire to achieve income that is not limited by regulations in the company or office. No boss that always gives unclear orders.
At least, that's what I used to feel before getting to know Bitcoin. And after getting to know bitcoin, I initially didn't think I could earn income from crypto, especially bitcoin. I only realized it after I learned trading because of an invitation from my friend. I have to thank him
Yes, we all want to be financially free and crypto/bitcoin provides that opportunity as long as we are willing to learn more.
I'm still in the learning phase and there's still a lot I haven't learned, especially in trading.

For me, It's being able to stay home with my family and spend more time with them instead of being on streets and just going from Home to Office and Office to Home.
I am still young (29 atm) and I do not think of Bitcoin as a retirement plan but as a plan to improve the quality of my life. I hope it will pay off with my HODL power

I don't think I have accomplished everything I need to know about Bitcoin. Bitcoin is like an endless journey because it's not a fixed asset or a liability which adds no value but depreciate as time goes on. Why Bitcoin growth is never ending project that has the potential to add value as the goes on. And this is the more reason people are so much attached to it or pick so much interest on it. The more investors get to know and invest in Bitcoin, the the more bitcoin gain in value and become popular.

So my reason of coming here is to learn more about Bitcoin and how to invest in it. Secondly how to secure my future and that of my children because I don't want my name to be had I know.. Because I have hear a copuples of people who regretted selling there bitcoin at ealy stage when it was very low. And know Bitcoin price soars high it seams they have lost a fortune due to lack of patients just like Laszlo Hanyecz who bought 2 pizzas for 10000 BTC so I don't want to make a regrettable mistake that generation to come will ask me what I was doin with my time.

Though I haven't achieve as mucj as expected. And I believe in due time my dreams will be achieved with hard work and consistency because only these factors can elevate me to that point.

The concept of being able to invest any amount you have in bitcoins makes it attractive and what attracted me to it. So far If I am to score myself on my accomplishments, I will say that I have accomplished something, but not the exact goal I hope to meet yet.

I wonder for the people who have said to meet/accomplish their target, what next for them?

I think a new target be set, instead of thinking that you have accomplished a lot already.

Does that mean you won't be doing "odd jobs" anymore? I know you deal with some other things that do not belong to the domain of "odd jobs", but I wonder how you will gain financial independence in 2 years by offering something like I'll Pray for You ...


I was not driven by the desire to stop working from 9-5, nor the desire to get rich overnight - I was primarily interested in the idea around which Bitcoin was built. Unfortunately, little or almost nothing is left of that idea...

I'm still in the process of accomplishing my goals and I can say it has been smooth sailing that at the present I've already seen positive changes in my life. I would admit that financial struggles has brought me to bitcoin, and I guess majority of the people here as well. I want to get to  know and understand more the concept of bitcoin so that I can fully take advantage of its utility cases.

Now, though I'm still in the process of achieving them but I must say my knowledge on bitcoin has become limitless. Aside from having it as an investment and having a good compensation from signature campaigns, I also develop interest on using it as a virtual currency that I can easily access online and use it to buy some necessities or pay my bills.

I got into Bitcoin to make my life better. I have succeeded in that target but there is so much more that I expect & want from Bitcoin. I think I am married to Bitcoin forever even if I like it or not. I am so heavily invested that it going to shape my life & success or lack of.

Do you easily buy with crypto in your country?

I have accomplished what brings me to Bitcoin, and that's the decentralization it offers, it's complete freedom from manipulative rulers in my country, Bitcoin was like what I really needed to avoid falling under the control of this centralized world.

I have some Bitcoin in holding and I am still thinking about retirement with Bitcoin as my sole backbone of financially free, this is something anyone can't complete because the idea of gathering more Bitcoin is never going to end, even those who are in control of million dollars are still accumulating Bitcoin.

For Bitcoin accumulation it's not over until it's over, make sure you know how to hold your Bitcoin like your life depends on it, because it's easier to buy Bitcoin but it's not easy to hold them safely and correctly, make sure you store yours offline.

If newbies read your story, they will think Bitcoin is like a magic stick for them.

Bitcoin is Bitcoin, it is there, for all but it is in a zero sum game and it's not easy to be winners and it is more easily to be losers. To become winners, people must know how to hold their bitcoins and wait for bull run to take profit. They must know to store their bitcoin in non custodial wallets, not on centralized exchanges.

They must avoid trading because when they join trading, they will use leverages and futures. If they only trade with Spot, they can enter, exit and chase small profit but will lose a big bull run because Bitcoin when runs, will run very fast and they will have to buy up the higher price, then get less bitcoins.

Anyone invest in bitcoin to make a lot of money when the market is doing well, but since bitcoin is still increasing and decreasing, I don't think I will get actually day that I will say have reach my goal on bitcoin and I won't invest in bitcoin again, because bitcoin doesn't have a limit because bitcoin increases frequently and no one can predict that there is a specific point where bitcoin will stop and not increase again is unstoppable and we will continue making money and solving our personal problems, because bitcoin has helped me a lot to solve many of my issues effectively. I don't know where I'd be without bitcoin now and I'm still delighted since bitcoin is still working as planned, thanks to Satoshi, who brings what will transform lives easier for individuals.

It is best to expose your loved one to bitcoin investing because there are many individuals who are looking for this type of investment but have no idea about it. It is recommended that you guide our loved ones about it so that they do not rely on anyone else's money.

There was no goal, at first it was just curiosity and when I learned about it I realized countless interesting things that I was still looking for. Actually, with bitcoin (crypto) I can see it as gratitude, because I learned a lot of things that no other place I came into contact with in life gave me a clearer view of the nature of many fields.
I also know a lot of friends in this field. It can be said that issues such as financial goals or technology solutions are no longer a top priority for me when talking about bitcoin, but behind them. Those are values that are more related to knowledge.

If I say so, I will say that I have been able to do a lot from Bitcoin. I first came to bitcoin forums to learn about bitcoin and to learn about bitcoin investing. Now all I can do is learn a bit about Bitcoin and grow my investment by earning from it. Earning bitcoins from bitcoin forum now I am managing the family well and also running a small business on out site with bitcoin earnings. I have always respected bitcoin forums and bitcoin because I have been able to light up my life from earning bitcoins.

I think that I've come to Bitcoin for liberty in terms of sending and receiving money, without the bank delays and huge fees. To be honest, I do think that I've accomplished that - wasn't hard haha. I receive my salary in crypto, I work for a crypto company, and I don't encounter banking problems with transfers anymore since I don't use them. Crypto is truly the best!

For sure most of the people in this industry are here for the money and profits. It is really a long journey before reaching this far where you are already knowledgeable enough and experienced, there's a lot of processes as you would lose money, the motivation to keep going, etc. Being involved with Bitcoin for such a long time has already helped me in many things especially financially, it has been provided like paying the bills, funds for emergencies, and the future as well. I have bought also some essential equipment like a laptop and motorcycle, but of course, it took a lot of time before reaching it since Bitcoin is still volatile so accumulating and holding till the bull run is a must. One thing I have observed is that having a stable income plus investment can help you achieve financial stability.

I have always wanted to live a simple and secret life where nobody will know how much I am worth and Bitcoin is the perfect choice to accomplish my desire. In my country some bankers act as spies to criminals, they could give this criminal information about you finances since they have access to your bank details.

Another attraction is the ability to engage in financial transactions without any form of limitations. The government of my country sometimes place limits on bank transactions which has affected individuals and businesses negatively. But Bitcoin has broken these barriers because you can sens and receive any amount of money at anytime.

However, the financial benefits of investing in Bitcoin is also my motivation. I will say that I have achieved some of these goals, while am still gunning to more of my intentions.

Before COVID I was struggling to get customers for my online business, post COVID it has been a dream come true. Now every small or big business wants to be on the Internet and want to be on the first page of Google. Since I do not work for anyone else and work for myself at the comfort of my office things are somewhat similar to what you have mentioned for yourself.

Bitcoin for me is a form of alternate investment and the forum for me is a form of gaining knowledge and learning with the ability to earn Bitcoin through a signature campaign. I cannot let go of both opportunities that I have been blessed with due to my habit of being inquisitive. For me, Bitcoin is also a second source of income and investment option which is quite good for anyone who is living in a third-world country.

It is not exactly what brought me to bitcoin but instead what I expected going in to bitcoin i am expecting to double the amount of money i have invested and right now i am still quite far from that goal upon holding i realize that it would also be very ideal if i buy more bitcoin it is just that right now i am in no place where i can afford to buy so i plan on saving up more

As for me, I dreamed of a scenario where I could freely walk without worrying about how much time I could spend to earn more money but instead, I let the crypto market decide my fate with proper knowledge of when the right time to buy bitcoins. Honestly, I'm really happy that I found this community that taught me the best way to secure your assets and use them the right way for future improvement of my life. As of now, I'm currently chasing my dream and I will never give up on that because I already have the necessary knowledge on how to make it come true in the future.

When I had joined the bitcoin bandwagon, I never had a plan to get rid of my day job. I know different people have different aspirations. But I really like my job. Especially after the COVID when it has become a remote job and I do not need to travel to office daily. Also I think it's a stupidity to rely on a single source of income. So Bitcoin has become my 2nd source of income which I use to travel within and outside my country.

So personally if I look back, Bitcoin was able to provide me with a solid 2nd source of income which is helping me to achieve my travel goals.

I am not there yet, but I am close, although I don't think that I will ever be satisfied even after I meet the target, because I plan to keep level up every year, maybe I will make twice much money I am making now in a year time and I will be able to accumulate even more Bitcoin? I am not near my 40s so I have a lot of time to still accumulate a lot of Bitcoin and I promise to get some for my unborn children too.

The reason why I am into Bitcoin is for financial freedom sake and to also escape inflation problem that have plagued the fiat currency of my country, it sucks keeping my money in bank accounts and it keeps loosing it's value.

Also some people are starting to report how banks are logging them off their account whenever they have over $30,000 in the bank, few banks will even call the cops on you, until you explain how you make the money, and I have a lot of money in Bitcoin that I won't even dare to exchange to my fiat currency and send to my bank account.

Achievement has never ends and as long as we are alive we can never seized to use bitcoin and to implement things we needs it for but in other hands bitcoin has given me the general knowledge about digitalization yet still aspiring to unlock some more function. I wouldn't say that I have achieved my desired end but still hoping to expand and increase my portfolio with time or as time goes all plans will be achieved. I still do not forget the fact that it was created for a purpose and that i will keep using it for even though we see it as a means of investment or as form of fund reservation.

I gotta say that I've accomplished a lot with bitcoin especially with all the art contests that I've won and I've participated, the wins that I've got there helped me build my investment portfolio and at the same time build my artistic portfolio and encouraged me to do more and improved on it even more. Here's to bitcoin for enabling that drive in me if not just boosting that drive that's already there.

If we all agree that bitcoin is not a ponzi scheme we can set a target to get it accomplishment within a short time, then the time frame for our bitcoin accomplishment have to varies and may be long as well, some may have to wait several years before they can get their target goals in bitcoin and while some may not have to wait for this long, it all depends on our ambition, plan and kind of investment made with bitcoin, meanwhile we cannot as well have a complete acheivements in bitcoin as long as we make one, we will still taste for more and do on, adoption of bitcoin is the first accomplishment everyone is concerned about because we all have this profitable opportuinity with bitcoin adoption.

A lot will say that financial sovereignty and freedom are what bought them to Bitcoin, or quickly became a goal after learning about how to use Bitcoin/joining the ecosystem. Sovereignty is easy to achieve, freedom not so much. While Bitcoin can help some to achieve financial freedom, it's not the primary purpose and I think this lets a lot of people down. It can teach a lot of lessons along the way that may increase the chances of achieving it in the future (which we may not have learned in the traditional system without Bitcoin), and it may increase chances with the appreciation of price, but overall it is not a surety.

I digress, I joined Bitcoin looking for a new trading medium outside of traditional systems, and I did achieve that, as can anyone who learns how to use it.

Human wants can never be satisfied, and likewise learning is a constant thing, and it is only when a man dies that he will stop learning and will have nothing to worry about. I have partially achieved part of the reason that brought me to bitcoin, which is to invest in bitcoin, so that I have enjoy bitcoin potentials. I have a bitcoin portfolio, but I have not reached my bitcoin target, and I am still accumulating hoping someday I will get there.

I also have the interest to learn more about bitcoin since I am into bitcoin investment so that, I can have a deep knowledge on how to keep my investment safe and also to learn more about the bitcoin network and development.

I came into Bitcoin as an investment
A method to create an easier future for my kids.
Not there yet
Don't think i would ever
Its ever changing
I'm human, never fully satisfied.

I don't think I'm there yet, I still have a lot of things to learn about bitcoin and my goal which I can't really share so much detail is still around 15% of the way so I'm not yet there but with my current pace with it, I think that I'm going to be happy about the stuff that I'll be leaving behind and the sacrifices I'm going to make when my goal finally happens.

What brought you to Bitcoin? How much of it have you accomplished? For me, it is the desire to earn a living off the internet without the encumbrances of a 9-5 job and having clients from all over the world pay me for my services without the limitations and regulations of fiat (a pity Bitcoin is being fiercely regulated too). I wouldn't say that I have accomplished that since I still support my earnings with "regular" jobs. I like the liberty of being in control of my time and how I work though I still have not gained that liberty completely. Nevertheless, I believe that with the plans I've implemented, being completely free from a 9-5 or "regular" is possible in 2 years.
