Personally I am waiting to spend money to buy some more bitcoin. This last days the price is too volatile; yesterday the price was at 16k$, today it is at 14k$...

This volatility offers opportunities for people waiting to enter. If you was considering to buy Bitcoin yesterday, and see now where the market stands at, it means a $2000 discount if you pull the trigger and start buying. Other than that, this volatility shouldn't come as a surprise considering how extremely thin the market currently is. In the mainstream media they make a big deal out of it, but it's all part of the game if you think logically. People shouldn't be forget that when the market goes up like $1000-$2000 in a matter of hours, it can also go down that much in a similar time fashion. Bitcoin and volatility are tied to each other basically for ever.

Its not only you who have a doubt in his/her mind, the fear of loss restrict many people to invest in bitcoin but some smart and risk taker have done it and now they are enjoying the ATH. Its never too late to be in this business, even now the people who have realized that bitcoin is not a bubble are earning handsome amount through it but many of the people are still in a doubt (or they don't want to take risk) even after seeing this much growth of bitcoin.

But now that it has shot up to nearly $17,000 in just a few hours, it doesn't seem like too bad an investment!

Its crazy thinking that just last week i didn't want to buy at $10, or even $11k!

My only fear is that the bubble will pop with it increasing so quickly

You have the same feelings and the same fears as most of those who hold Bitcoins have now. I guess BTC keepers stay sleepless Shocked

I empathize with them. I understand the worry of them. Wondering sell or continue to keep. because bitcoin price is too high compared with Bitcoin price before we buy into, profit is greater when selling them this time. However we are still like to reserve bitcoin, fear that sell them and can not buy back with lower prices

The matter is that we have already seen what the maximum record of the Bitcoin price can be for today, and at the slightest slips of 1000 or several thousand, it will be possible to buy boldly and wait for the next growth, which will very quickly come.

That's the problem with all the noobs like you , you first brag and be super happy and praise btc that it increased by $1k $3k etc and be like you made so much profit but as soon as it falls down you all start complaining like idiots that btc is shit , it's just a stupid bubble blah blah.

Firstly no one is forcing you to invest in btc if you are some stupid idiot expecting to earn $1000's in a single day without any risk piss off.

Never feel bad about it. If you can afford to hold your bitcoins, you'll have a nice return in the furure for sure. This is not a short term investment while you're in bitcoin.

We was scared, thought it was a bubble. We think $10,000 is too high and when it reaches $17,000 we regret it. Now do not invest maybe a few days later we regret it so.

I have had this feeling some time ago and I think many of us have had this feeling too. The fear of what is going to happen next always dominate our mind when ever we want to take good business decisions and the uncertainty surrounding the particular asset always make us to regret our decision. I think one has to know how think work in other to invest into bitcoin at the right time and this has been very difficult because we refuse to learn when to buy in other to make profits. Thank God your purchase at $14,000 now $17,000 and if you hold further bitcoin is going towards $20,000 before this year end.

I'm not so sure. For me a bubble is any asset whose value grows only by investing user. If bitcoin is used for trading and thereby stimulated the production I would change my opinion. But we still have a long way to go. We do not have unity of opinion within the bitcoin community and this can have a detrimental effect on the future of bitcoin.

And now the price is just hovering above $15,000 and I think you should not fell bad at getting it at $14,000. Yes, its definitely not a bad investment but it still has risk, we can't never predict where the price is really going. But don't worry personally, I think this madness will not stop until we see bitcoin hits $20,000, and because of all this financial institutions offering. And as far as the bubble being pop, historical data says that it can quickly recovered and even go further and establish new all-time-high. So you are still on the positive as far as profit, let's see how it goes on Sunday/Monday when CBOE officially offering bitcoin contracts, it may go either way, but I have a feeling that this bull run will still continue at the end of the year.

The only thing you should feel bad about is missing the extra profits by not investing earlier when it went up to 17k you could earn more profits. Other than that, you should never feel bad for anything like investing in Bitcoin or something, because you are eventually going to be in profit if you are a long term investor. We all know that the current situation is not permanent for sure, and Bitcoin cannot keep moving like this, but we also know that Bitcoin will eventually be of more value than today.

$14,000 does seem high but it’s 25% off the peak so it’s probably not a bad price point. You’re probably still going to make a big profit if you hold it for a year or more even if there is a crash.

My philosophy for Bitcoin and any major altcoins is don’t sell for a loss. You will probably be able to ride out any correction or crash if you can wait long enough. Bitcoin could crash and then rise back up to $100,000 in a couple of years, so you are better off just holding rather than selling.

You are not alone. There are people also who did not buy bitcoins when the price was lower than todays price. Regret was always felt in the end.

The moment you bought bitcoin you must accept that anything including experiencing losing some will happened on the way.

If you are eyeing for long term goals no worries what will happened later on as long as you understand what you are doing.

bitcoin is never a bad investment, specially if you are thinking long term. now may not be the best time to buy though, unless you are day trading it.

more crazy is that all the people who didn't buy at $1200 and instead sold because someone said this is the end. and then $1200 went to $12000+ (10x)

it will eventually. maybe the current drop is the start of it, maybe some temporary drop. but it will drop eventually and will drop big. a good time to buy is by then before it recovers and goes back up.

Am i a millionaire yet?

I want to keep hold for the long term, so i'm not too interested in short term gains.

Can you believe i thought i was too late getting into Bitcoin earlier this year in the summer, when price was $4,000 per coin? If only i had bought more back then!
