When life gets hard BUY Bitcoin!

Quote from: cheezcarls on September 05, 2022, 11:00:54 AM

It's about being lucky with that kind of altcoin that we're investing especially if we are participating in a presale campaign. Even private sales campaign won't guarantee you an edge because there are chances that it will go even lower than its price. And worse, most of the private sales has a vesting period.

Yes I agree with you about the "diamond in the dirt" thing regarding altcoins. Been there done that.

Do necessary research and set parameters in every coin we buy even it is presale or already in the market. We can search now if what the project is all about, how it was market and who is the team behind it. We know it is risky to get involved in new coins or altcoins and safer to invest in bitcoin but if we are capable of risking some of our investment in altcoins provided we do research and see that project potential then be it. I have earn some worthy amount before in some altcoins from presale just don't hold it too long, as long as I’m able to gain profit from it I already sold it.

You can't blame them for investing in altcoins, there's a diamond in the dirt and everyone's thinking that they should just keep on accumulating those coins because they wouldn't know which one is going to pump real fast so that they can become instant millionaires.

I think having losses is common among traders. As long as it's bearable, losses are always a lesson but a tragedy when people are not going the right way. There are speculations, fake news, fud etc; are might be a reason. Make sure everything is in your control.

Everything cannot be in your control but you have to know how to handle everything like as if you are in control. Market ups and downs are a part of the market, it does not mean you are facing a tragedy. While keeping your cool during stress is one thing, dealing with pressure from sudden market movment is another thing.

People make mistakes in this market, those are your chances to pounce on a quick low price buy or a high price sell. These chances will come but you have to be vigilant once you enter the market.

Losses will happen, but take them as lessons and try not to repeat them.

A normal thing people can easily catch their eyes with the easy earning of money and for sure many people get encourage to do this at the same time because they want to make their savings more profitable and again the market is volatile and it is all up with your decision to make a hold or sell your assets and of course once the market is currently going down there's a chance that you might get feared and panic selling those holdings you have.

Meaning that not because we invest in Bitcoin we all gonna make a profit. Losses is inevitable and that also lies in our hands as we make a decision differently. We saw some people make rich in crypto, and gain thousand or million dollars, and literally, we ask how? And they probably will answer buy, hold, and sell at high - that seems easy to understand and it was not hard to do. But unfortunately, not all went successfully, many had lost their minds due to panic and impatient.

Nobody who has HODLED for over 6 years has ever lost money. Bitcoin should be seen as a long term investment. If these guys can’t handle the heat, they should stay out of the kitchen. Great volatility is the price you pay for life changing profit. Patience is of course, key.

Thing here is that you should really able to make yourself sustainable so that you you really be that able to survive this unpredictable market.Dont mind other people or traders in the
market because it would really just boggle up your mind on what you should gonna do.Always focus on your goal or target on a particular day or long months
because you are the ones who would really be handling out yourself on this very unpredictable market.

The mistakes people make is because they are investing in altcoins, could you believe that altcoins are more volatile but many of them do not make it to all-time-high in 2020/2021. If an holder bought at high price, they may not want to wait again and sell in losses after coins like bitcoin has already reached all-tim-high. Some people that invested at low price can gain but altcoins are more risky.

The truth is that most of people that invest in altcoin are always with the mindset of 100x returned on investment which may never be achieved unless on a pump and dump projects and most of the altcoins are programmed that way but can also crashed to zero price so investors have developed a mindset of selling off whenever the price pump since they have learned from past experienced, that altcoin can hardly recover after any drop in price unless for a few of them like Ethereum who follow closely with Bitcoin market movement.
Take a look at most of the altcoins that have crashed before, altcoin doesn't have the recovery capacity that bitcoin has to recover from any bear season and still make an all-time high.

It’s a golden on trading to take profit when happy but you can maximize your profitability if you are using fibonacci level to determine the percentage of profit to make your trade efficient rather than using just your emotion on taking profit. I’m always encountering this kind of comment on thread like this but how do you determine if the profit is small or huge?

Many traders are missing a lot profit opportunity for being too cautious without even using indicators. It’s not bad to become cautious but people should understand how to play properly on trading.

It can be seen from many things in determining whether the profit is small or large.
The most obvious example is when the price gets a pump and makes the price soar suddenly, giving us a big profit.
But if the price increases but is not too high and there is a tendency for the price to fall again, we can sell it at that time and our profit will not be too big.
It will all depend on the state of the market, how the price moves, and how much profit we want.
The important thing is not to be greedy in taking advantage because otherwise, we can lose profit.

There is nothing called free lunch and there is nothing called easy money. If you want to earn. You need to work. You need to work either hard or you need to work smart. It's a choice to make. Some people are smart they know where to put their money and make solid reliable investments, while some people are simply desperate and they invest where they see windfall gains... But as i said there are no free lunches

Investing without a proper knowledge of what they are getting into is one of the common reason on why investors are having losses. It's because they buy a coin not knowing if this is the right one or even worthy to hold. Some people who invest in crypto became interested just because they saw an ads about it or through influencers promoting the particular coin saying it's profitable to invest.

The other one is buying at peaked price but cant bear seeing the price moving downward, due to lack of patience, panic selling is their solution on this situation while other investors who have high hopes are disappointed because it's not the scenario that they expected when they invest. Anyway investing is risky thus if you decided to take risk dont expect too much and be prepared. Always remember the saying "good things will come to those who wait" so be patient.

it is not bad that they invested in altcoins because at some way? altcoins are also profitable but the issue here is why they invested in Altcoins rather than bitcoins? it is because of their greedy attitude and because they wanted to make easy money.

they trusted those coins because of the Idea that this will make them rich in shorter time.

Greed is at the root of everything and everyone wants to get rich as fast as possible.
In addition, they might also invest more in bitcoin, but when bitcoin drops in value in a short period of time and makes them panic and sell them, this will also result in them losing money.
The loss not only happens when investing in altcoins but investing in bitcoin will also make them lose money if they don't understand how bitcoin works and just want to buy and sell them right after to make a profit.

those who are too involved in the crypto altcoin project will probably have the same opinion as the news source.
but for those who entered bitcoin from the beginning, they must have had a different response.

because it is true that altcoins have very high fluctuations. even many of them end up rugfull, scam etc.
That's why it's so hard to find a suitable altcoin to enter as a long-term investment. only a few names to date have continued to display positive charts. like ETH. but still very high volatility.
so I myself do not dare to invest long term in altcoins. I only dare to invest long term in bitcoin. because of this bitcoin gives more than i expected. even when fud continuously attacks bitcoin. but bitcoin is still standing strong and remains number one.

We suffered losses not only because we do the wrong things but because of the volatility of the market, this will actually happen, and find no excuse for that. It seems to know that it was acceptable unless the situation is getting worse and even lost many times that is something to say it was not good at all. Some factors are :
- wrong choice of coins
- emotions/panic selling
- knowledge
- being impatient

And I was sure that many people/investors had carried these things and no way they can escape from losing their money.

which would really be different to each other.Some does really love to play safe and some do really love to put up some risk.Losses is normal and this is why we are doing out best to lessen it out.
The important thing on here is that you should really be wise on every decisions that you would make even though it wont be that precise but at least you do know on what you are doing.

I prefer to withdraw profits, even if they are small because I believe the profits can be big if I keep trying.
Maybe people want to take advantage when the price is high so the profit will be even greater.
They should be able to learn to reduce losses, especially if they know that the price will continue to fluctuate and even the price will move so fast.

There's no way of determining whether its small or huge because whenever the market do make out some turn then you would be giving that a point which you would really be saying that it was the peak
or bottom and this is the time you would make out some conclusion whether you had just made out some good decision on selling or you had just been to early on taking action.
Due to unpredictability of the market then it is really hard to point the precise levels and speaking with tools been used in regarding on that decision making then it would be falling
whether you are relying into those indicators or just simply been following with your own gut or emotion.

Nearly half of US adults say their crypto punts are worse than expected: Survey

Quote

It's too bad, as a majority of the crypto investors surveyed said they became interested in crypto as they thought it was a good way to make money.

Amid the ongoing crypto winter, new data from a Pew Research Centre survey has shown that 46% of adult crypto users in the United States are seeing lower than expected returns on their crypto investments.

The survey gathered responses from over 6,000 randomly-selected adults across the United States, with panelists participating in self-administered web surveys.

Conducted from July 5 to 22 of this year, the majority of respondents who said they had invested in crypto said they saw lower than expected returns than expected while only 15% of people surveyed said their crypto investments had done better than expected. Meanwhile, around 31% said it was "about the same as they expected."

To read the news in details, you can follow the above link.

The mistakes people make is because they are investing in altcoins, could you believe that altcoins are more volatile but many of them do not make it to all-time-high in 2020/2021. If an holder bought at high price, they may not want to wait again and sell in losses after coins like bitcoin has already reached all-tim-high. Some people that invested at low price can gain but altcoins are more risky.

Bitcoin has always reach all-time-high. Many people that complained before the present all-time-high with unrealized losses (people that did not sell when they were losing) later gained and were all happy, bitcoin increased from $19500 all-time-high in 2017 to $69000 all-time-high in 2021. Bitcoin market has been unfavorable this year but which people that know about bitcoin are not surprised about, they have predicted this bear market before it happened. If bitcoin is presently at $21000 by now, they should know that the market is healthy, that they should not sell in loss. If they hold bitcoin, all-time-high is coming, I am predicting the next bitcoin all-time-high to reach over $100k.

Bitcoin will reach its peak one day but it is not far away.What you predicted will happen very soon.We may see Bitcoin price 100k very soon. Those of you who have already invested will never be disappointed.Will the market grow or not? I can say that since you bought and invested in Bitcoin, hire a long-term vision.You understand the result of waiting but it will definitely be good. But if you have seen the price of Bitcoin as high as $69k then there is no reason to be disappointed.Of course you can believe that Bitcoin will reach its peak very soon.

Quote from: Fesatmas on August 30, 2022, 03:47:20 AM

Precisely they want to get rich in a short time, even though there is no place anywhere that can offer that. They ended up trapped in their own greed. And not infrequently people like that are people who have experienced the same incident several times, strangely they do not learn from the bitter experience they felt before.

Cryptocurrency really makes it possible to quickly increase your funds, but the truth is that in order to do this you need to have good knowledge in many areas and of course some part of luck must also be present. Bitcoin is reliable, but this way can also be long. Here everyone chooses for himself, for someone more reliable investments are important, for someone it is important to increase your deposit as quickly as possible...

And it was a need for the impatient people to adjust and adapt to the system otherwise, losses are what was meant to happen to them.
Choosing an investment that we are knowledgeable about is a great advantage but those who love thinking of instant return, quick rich scheme literally suffered losses. I'd see a lot of people doing this and they blame crypto but the truth is that it was their fault. It is necessary to at least have an idea of what we are doing, otherwise.

I don't know why every time people are losing their money on a crypto investment, they will blame crypto. I don't think that this is the fault of crypto, but the mistakes of the people themselves on how they are investing, in what crypto, at what rate, and how long they are investng.
There are many people who invest in cryptocurrency because of the hype and also triggered by FOMO. ANd then after the price drop, they are too late to sell and then lost the money. Or, they are buying Bitcoin in one day, and after 2 days, the price drops, and they considered that they have lost their money. Whereas as we know that when we are investing in Bitcoin, we can use it for long-term investment. That is why we don't need to panic every time the price of Bitcoin drops. That is why long-term investment of Bitcoin is sure enough. However, in fact, many people only need instant profits and always think that crypto investment will give high profits quickly. And eveyr time the market goes down, they will blame crypto. In addition, they are very ready with the profits, but they are not ready and not want the risks.
This si actually based on how they are in the real world, their readiness on something risky ther willing to learn and many more complex things to do.
