Must of people who criticized BTC in the past had already regretted their actions, and some of them buy Bitcoin when the price start to move because they will not stay to miss out better opportunities in the future because they criticized it and it keeps proving them wrong by moving further above their expectations.

BTC price keeps surging, what is the target price that it will balance?
When will most altcoins follow suit because most alt pins did t pump that much as Bicoin deed this week.

They will definitely regret their past actions and would wish they didn’t criticize it back then. Bitcoin waits for no one so as you keep wasting time doubting it you are equally wasting your own time and an opportunity to invest early when the price is still very much affordable than it will be later. Keep criticizing bitcoin and it will keep proving you wrong again and again it will be your loss as lots of people are adopting bitcoin everyday and without anyone bitcoin will still keep rising.

I think the target price everyone is looking to see is to cross the $100k mark which is not far away again. Price correction might happen to try to balance everything but I don’t think it will go below $85k (just a speculation). I believe soon Alts will follow up too and we will soon see a massive pump in altcoins.

I don't want to regret what happened before or what I left in the past. Maybe we didn't know about bitcoin when bitcoin was created when the price of bitcoin was very low, if we knew about bitcoin and didn't invest because of our mistake we would have regretted. Because we missed that time, we don't want to miss it again. Will try to invest from the moment we arrive in Bitcoin and wait for something better in the future. The future of Bitcoin does not end here. Bitcoin's future will gradually improve. We will build a lot during that time.

Bygone days means the past. And the past always remains in the memory. Which may be beautiful or regrettable. We haven't been around since the beginning of Bitcoin, but now is our time. There is no fixed time to invest in Bitcoin. So we should start investing Bitcoin as soon as possible.

One of the things I love about bitcoin is how it proved most people around the world wrong
I came across this picture of someone who called Bitcoin a mess back in 2011, and it made me laugh
I really want to see his face now when he finds out that 1 of the mess is worth 80 thousand dollars
I'm really pained that I didn't invest in Bitcoin sooner, but I'm glad that I'm here now

Cheers to better days ahead for Bitcoin
And to prove more skeptic wrong

I've personally learnt not to blame people like this when ever I come across such tweets or post where ever, and I also have learnt not to laugh at them because we never can know, they might be doing really well for themselves right now while most of us are still here grinding, alot of them may have turned back to later buy into bitcoin when they discovered that its not really a mess as they had assumed, and today, they are living very large and not making noise about it online.

As a matter of fact, humans make mistakes, we all make mistakes, and for those who knew about bitcoin back in 2009, 2010, 2011 up to 2015 and never believed in it, that could be one of the mistakes in life, there is no need throwing shades at them because mistakes is something we all are guilty of.
And also try to put yourself in their shoe and consider how timid bitcoin was back then, it's possible you also might not have believed in bitcoin back then when it had very little chances of succeeding.

What surprises you? It is natural for people to make mistakes. In my country, even a high-ranking official constantly makes stupid mistakes and often makes mistakes. So there is nothing surprising about this. I have already passed the age when I want to mock people. This is simply unworthy and looks childish. Let these people bite their elbows. They did not even want to consider such options at that time. This is their biggest mistake. As for me, I try to learn as much as possible about the investment instrument that is offered to me.

Well, they got it wrong...Bitcoin’s now hitting $91k and is on track to reach $100k soon. It’s only been a few days since Trump won, and this rally kicked off, showing just how much people trust the new administration to bring some bullish momentum to Bitcoin. Whether it’s hype or not doesn’t matter; what’s important is that another milestone’s been reached -- ATH after ATH. With prices at this level, bullish investors are definitely counting on a longer bull run ahead.

The bullish momentum are there and makes Bitcoin price increase. We see the new ATH for temporary but that will still increase soon although right now the correction still there. And if those people who said bad things about Bitcoin and decide not to invest in Bitcoin see what happened to Bitcoin will regret and disappointed that what they say are wrong. They think now too late to start investing in Bitcoin as the price was increase so high but even though, they can still invest in Bitcoin. They needs to realize that Bitcoin can still increase and make another ATH in the future so they should change their minds and learn more about Bitcoin so they will know the truth.

Even if it was you; you could still say same thing as at then. Just like some altcoins now that are within that range of $2, do you know they might likely survive the market and skyrocket to a very high price in a decade from now?
As at then, bitcoin was new and looked as if it won't have any future, few people just had faith and possibly invested with an amount they could afford to lose and then HODL. Those people that bought bitcoin as at then and HODL, do you think they didn't have so much money to invest with? they did, but because they didn't know that bitcoin will get to where it is now made them not to invest so much in bitcoin.

Okay, you are pained that you didn't invest in bitcoin earlier maybe because you know about bitcoin but you didn't also trust the process as well for you to invest in it, so i see no difference between you and the person who couldn't buy bitcoin when it was as low as $2.70

That guy should feel regret now if he see what happen to Bitcoin now and he still not invest in Bitcoin. I can imagine how his face shock to see Bitcoin price now and the journey of Bitcoin.

Certainly, anyone who knew about bitcoin but didn't invest early, or those who invested but sold a few years ago will feel very regretful. But not only them, if it were us, we would have ended up like them because at that time bitcoin was not as trustworthy as it is now. Likewise, I believe many members on the forum have had that experience, many were also skeptical about bitcoin when they first heard about it.

But, those who bought are still much better than those who didn't. They need to think about it, so that they can only feel lesser regrets. Besides, they already have an experience, so this gives them another advantage to start again quickly and they may not want to repeat the same mistakes again of selling early.

Not all people are the same, so I won't say yet that if we were on their shoes, we will also ended up on the same situation because what if not? It is not that BTC is not trustworthy but it is only the minds of the people are the problem but BTC being not popular yet can also contribute on it because there is also lack of sites before that provides info about it.

This is inevitable because there are indeed hundreds of people's views regarding bitcoin in different assessments so that what happens is the opposite where bitcoin can provide much better expectations than expected. For haters will try to say bitcoin is a bad choice but that can be refuted according to history. There is no need to even bother explaining to people about bitcoin because they can review bitcoin's journey so far.

Forget about what people say like that because bitcoin does not need justification because what happens is that it can provide an opportunity for anyone to achieve a better stage of financial freedom. Being in the Bitcoin community actually gives great hope for anyone to change their life to be better than before.

That is the full story, Nigga is still pained and full of regrets for his earlier mistakes of underestimating the potentials of bitcoin in the early days, maybe he learned and later invested, maybe he kept doubting until 2021, but same thing would be the plight of many more who still looks down on bitcoin today, sooner they would drink from the cup of regrets.

Another reason why dont get caught up too much with the opinions of other people like we often seen in social media because those are their speculations and of course possible against with the rise of the market imagine you believe on this guy and you didn't make an investment now you are one of the people who regrets with the bitcoin price right now, well we cant blame other people because on that time bitcoin doesn't give a really good name at that time people are still skeptical on it, but imagine if you just trust your guts and make an investment.

@OP it was a picture and a statement way back 2011. So no one will know that Bitcoin will rally on the current price during those time. I think, those who are enthusiast in those years don't even think that Bitcoin will rich this high today. Many probably have sold their stash during those years but eventually reaccumulated as Bitcoin's popularity increased. I think the trust and believe of people towards Bitcoin developed overtime as Bitcoin overcame hurdles and trials along its way.

Yep - it's foolish to think that people at that time thought about BTC the way we think about it today.
Today BTC is spoken about far and wide and everybody puts it to a higher regard and thinks about it - the power lies in the acknowledgement and knowledge.

Even people will not thought Bitcoin can be at the price now and hit $93k as the new ATH for temporary. But their dream keeps telling them to still accumulating more Bitcoin until now. And now, they are very happy seeing Bitcoin price increase so high, out of their expectations. People trust really helps them to make a big profit now from Bitcoin and they will not want to stop their investment in Bitcoin. And they left other people who doesn't want to join them to investing in Bitcoin because they will not care with those people. All they want to do is collecting more Bitcoin because now, Bitcoin is too worth for them.

Of course no one knew that Bitcoin will be big in the next 10 years or so. And we have heard a lot of early investors as well regretting in their decision to sell early. But that is the beauty of investing, not just in crypto, it's the unknown, it's the fear that it could be successful (and so you stay with it), or it will be a failure (you sell early and get out).

So you can't blame those who exited and didn't think that Bitcoin will grow this big and maybe those early days, they think that this is just a experience, a fad that will simply go away. But we have proved our point already, and maybe around that time, those who might have sold could have comeback in 2013-2015 so still a win-win for them. And the thing is that we are still here and will obviously stay in the next 10 years or so.

You are right if consider another scenario where the cycle won't repeat then not buying now can be a big mistake but to be honest do you think this scenario will take place? I don't think even if this time BTC made ATH before the halving and meme coin hype came before the ETH and ALT coin hype and things are not really following the pattern as they used to follow in the last 4 halvings. But that's a big if in my sight.

In my opinion, when ETFs come into the market and there is a possibility that the government will also enter the market, everything will change completely. That is why I put forward the scenario that the bitcoin cycle will change.

Quote from: Faisal2202 on November 12, 2024, 01:41:08 PM

We can't just rely on these ETFs but there are whales too, some whales are more than 10 year old and now they are moving their BTC just to sell them this surely won't make a big dump like in past it used to but something big will happen that will dump the market.

For me the biggest whales in the market right now are the ETFs, they have enough money to buy any amount of bitcoin the long term whales want to sell. Whales over 10 years old have made millions of percent returns on their bitcoin investments, but compared to the capital that ETFs are managing, that amount is just a drop in the ocean.

In just 5 days, they poured more than 4.2 billion dollars into the market, can any old whale do this?

Quote from: Faisal2202 on November 12, 2024, 01:41:08 PM

For the long term like if you are making an investment for next halving then buying at CMP is not a bad idea as profit will be made at last.

Honestly, we have mined over 19 million bitcoins and there are not many bitcoins left to mine. Not to mention if you look at the outflows from ETFs, they are buying many times more bitcoin than the miners are mining every week. So I'm not bullish on the halving anymore and I think the bigger catalyst in this bull run is ETFs, governments and economic impacts rather than the halving.

As you can see week: 44 ETF bought over 20kBTC while bitcoin only mined 3kBTC.

I think there were a lot of people who didn't believe in Bitcoin at that time. I was one of them, in the first row. Likewise, I couldn't understand the whole idea; I probably didn't even try. There was a great opportunity to get the money I earned on the Internet in Bitcoin, but I preferred digital money. Of course, there are many regrets among those who didn't believe in time and among those who sold without waiting for time. Perhaps many would have had a different life, but surely everyone is given their destiny to be rich or not. Everyone has chances; the important thing is not to miss them. Learning from your mistakes is a good thing, and if someone regrets not doing something earlier, you should not give up and not miss the opportunity now.

Is there any need crying over a missed opportunity, if one found out about BTC in the early days but didn't buy it then, that time is past and they should be looking at buying it right now.

We cannot really blame those who bought very early and also sold along the way, i cannot promise that i would not have sold some of my coins if i had bought very early. Right now we have seen BTC's trajectory and we understand it a bit more, so holding it is easier than in the early days.

As I said above, if we were in their shoes at that time, we would have acted the same way. I am not blaming or laughing at anyone who did not buy or sell bitcoin early, I am not saying that, don't get me wrong.

Indeed, investing in bitcoin these days is much easier than before as things have become much clearer. I bet OP or whoever was laughing at people who sold bitcoin at that time. If they had the chance to go back in time but didn't know what was happening in the present, they wouldn't even care about Bitcoin, let alone believe in it and buy it.

Some people like to criticize or ridicule others for missing out on some opportunities in the past, but if we were in their shoes, there is no guarantee that we would do better than them.

Totally agree!
It's easier said than done because while some may claim they would hold for the years to come, I think the lust to get their bags in even such a plus would take hold of them at some point.
So now, that we know the situation - why not be better and just move forward?
