Topic: When will you finally buy - page 2. (Read 1150 times)

very optional and you don't have to force people to invest in bitcoin and advising them to invest should also be optional and some of them is not as if they don't know the importance of investing in bitcoin sometimes it is just procrastination and also fear of spending their money, now one foreseen their self investing in bitcoin and if you actually need an investment you can do bitcoin either you are holding or you are trading it. and the way we get involved in bitcoin is actually very different, and the difference was also made it possible for us to actually adopt bitcoin, even if it as not been easy but to some extent it is worth it, and if it is about the critics they are already reducing because they are already getting the right information and people are even very ready to invest in bitcoin, that is exactly how it is suppose to be.


procrastinates  is a very big problem not just because of bitcoin but it have cost a lot of people a lot of great opportunities the moment we can over ride that then we have solved half of our problem, because, there are days when you will  want to do something and you will feel like doing it latter and when you get use it, you will have prove problem because you become very lazy you will keep postponing until you will not be able to achieve anything so it is better to make a choice when ever you want to  do.

I have come to the conclusion that we shouldn't talked anyone in to investing in Bitcoin but we should rather share the knowledge we have in Bitcoin and allow them to make that very investment decision so as to enable them make an informed decisions towards their investments and will not blame anyone in the case of things not going according to their plans, Bitcoin investment is beyond being convinced by another person rather it takes personal decision and conviction to invest in Bitcoin and not because it is what every one is doing or talking about. But however, undoubtedly alot are going to regret on seeing where Bitcoin is going to be in the future time, just as those who regretted not investing when they had the opportunity when Bitcoin was at it's earliest days.

With this kind of statement, it seems that they are not interested at all, and for me I don't push other people if they don't want to. It seems they don't really care at all, but if I have the opportunity and see the potential of the bitcoin for buy at least I will grab it because we know the bitcoin itself how it moves. If you just want to get caught with the bitcoin I guess this is a wrong move possible you make a wrong entry position and might loss your profit instead you take for a long term holding just to get back those losses. Well there's nothing wrong with it if you are seeing the price of the coin for a long term investment.

It is okay if they won't buy as long as you've reminded them once or twice, that's already more than enough for you to be worried about people close to you or strangers buying Bitcoin. Once you're able to give your thoughts about it, you don't talk about it with them anymore. You do and mind your own business than them. But expect them to come whenever they see the radar and see that the price of Bitcoin is going up again. Worry about yourself and your holdings and you shall do fine on this market. While the rest, don't be bothered with those people that you've already mentioned about it. Give them time if they will buy, they've done it already but for some reasons and circumstances there could be some valid reasons why they haven't done yet.

One of the reasons for procrastination is lack of money. Procrastination that is about investment is orchestrated by lack of money. A rich man who has money in abundance and have spendables will not think much or stress whoever is talking to him about investment opportunities. Too many questions and too many doubts is what lack of money brings. When you are not sure when next you will get $100, you will guard the one you have like your life depends on it.
Funny enough, it's still the poor that needs this opportunity of bitcoin. Because people who are already made would not care about bitcoin.

Bitcoin investment is optional, but also someone can be talked with a clearer picture and understanding on how and importance of investing. Most people here who became Bitcoin enthusiasts never knew or understood Bitcoin just by themselves, many were talked in from discussion with friends or families then with own further enquiries. As time goes by, knowledge is spread and further adoption begins, a few people who are currently in the Bitcoin market currently, years back a good number of them where all Bitcoin critics but what remains constant is change and it has strongly impacted Bitcoin adoption.

As much, there are those who procrastinates alot, not because they are not interested or are no financially stable to set up their investment portfolio but are just a feast for procrastination and most of the times reduces great chances of acquiring Bitcoin at a more decent price than they should have, just as exemplified by OP. 

Someone who is willing to start their investment would surely start buying when is ready without procrastination. I wouldn't allow anyone to be pressured in investing in Bitcoin as it is something that has to come from the mind willingly. Any investment done with pressure from peer groups, influenced from friends, colleagues, and even family members may end up not been successfully. A good investor make proper plans by working with his won space based on his risk tolerance.  One thing is to set an investment goal and the other is to see it to the end. If one is going to start an investment and at the end of the day he stat tapping from the investment then there is no need to start that investment.

You can't have the knowledge of bitcoin and you will be thinking where or when to buy bitcoin from market when you have the money, because there is no price can stop you not to buy bitcoin and hold for long term, if you are not financial buoyant, you can wait until the price of bitcoin reduce to your level before you can buy and hold and you will like what you are going to earn when the price hit $100k in the future.

The fact that people who knew bitcoin from the onset till date don't have bitcoin in their portfolio but some are still rich outside bitcoin investment shows me that not everyone will be bitcoin investors but yet they will have their way through the matrix. having said that I'm not of the opinion that not investing in bitcoin is good.

Truth remains that their are lots of people in the crypto space that might have sugars in their mouths yet prefer to throw them away, it's a personal race every one is entitled to their decisions whether to buy or not to buy but what I keep saying to those who consciously refuse to buy is not to cry out to me when they see others results of taking the risk.

I have my portfolio growing gradually and that's what everyone of use here should or are already doing.

This is the  same way many people sluggishly lost the opportunity of investing in Bitcoin. Even now, there are some persons that would still argue that buying Bitcoin now looks expensive and they would have to wait for a while for the price to fall more before they can buy and  accumulate Bitcoin for themselves. It is not an easy decision when it comes to making financial decisions.

 If we want to invest in cryptocurrency, it is good we ask questions from people that knows and understand the market well to proper explanations before we dave into the market making decisions decisions on our own. I know sometimes, it can be a critical decision to investor when the price looks high but we just need to be taking some risk because it can be a big opportunity for us.

Don't concern yourselves with short-term price gains or losses. Those don't matter. Scroll further out if you are looking at the charts to see what is possible long-term. If you are acquiring bitcoin as a side hussle from freelancing or doing gigs like signature campaigns on Bitcointalk, what difference does it make what the value will be two days, weeks, or months from today? Even if it goes up just one percent, it's 1% more purchasing power that you gain compared to your fiat currency that is constantly being devalued. 

Mike & Jeff like humor, we are not them, however the price of Bitcoin Jeff is always looking for excuses, he never wants to buy it even though the price of Bitcoin is at $100 he really denies it.

We have a principle in buying Bitcoin not in a humorous position, I take it very seriously and I will not miss something that should have real benefits for myself.

OP Jeff which one do you mean, Jeff Bezos, Jeff Sekinger, Jeff Hammerbacher which one do you mean....!

The point is: whatever reasons someone gives to their friends regarding understanding Bitcoin, only they themselves can be sure about their belief in Bitcoin.

Be a Mike. The feeling is so damn good when BTC reaches a new ATH and people say they will buy during the dips.
I have also seen such people who say they will buy during the dips but fear to buy at that time due to the high volatility.
Fortunately, I made some of my friends buy bitcoin and they are happy to hold it now.

Hmm, This is quite an unrealistic story, you know a person who has known about the crypto market since 2012 era is not that stupid to control himself in front of such temptation of crazy returns even a newbie cant control. You can say that a person can ignore opportunities for once or twice afterward he'll grab it at any cost, you know this what happened to me in my early days but just once. According you your story the loser is sticking to the market and not making any move for almost 3 cycles.


Hmm that's nice that you are trying to progress within your journey but I want to ask more about the term potential investors, who are they any clues ?

I believe that the procrastination about whether to buy Bitcoin or not has drastically reduced over the years since it's creation. Many people were skeptical about it in it's early days because it was still new then and they weren't sure whether it was a scam project so you couldn't blame anyone then. But today that Bitcoin has gained reputation as a store of value and the adoption is increasing everyday, there's no need to overemphasize it's worth as a valuable asset that will keep increasing in price on the long term. Anybody that doesn't hodl Bitcoin today must be as a result of the fact that they're not interested in cryptocurrency investment, not because they don't believe that it's not an asset that is worth holding.

Potential investors have a lot of reasons for buying and at the right time for buying. I have learnt and still am about the cryptocurrency market and although BTC is my number one choice, I will want to be sure I have gathered enough knowledge and ranked up here, before I delve into owning Bitcoin and maybe some top performing altcoins too.
Also, this halving I have heard and read so much about has to happen firstly too before I finally decide if I want to be a regular trader or just holder of BTC.

Usually he common scene happen to them is they wait for a dip to buy but when the dip came their decision change since these people got afraid on more price dump that might happen that's why it always end up nothing to them especially if the price of bitcoin bounce back and here they are doubting because they didn't take any chance to grab while the market is experiencing a bad fall.

If people always act like that and afraid to take decision to invest while there's a chance for them to do it then provably they would miss a lot of chance and will just regret on why they became so dumb for listening other people sentiments towards those possible dump that they are spreading.

That is the most mistake some people's usually make in their life: they will not buy Bitcoin the time price is dropping. Till when the price rises, they will find an excuse and start debating themselves by asking irrelevant questions. And anyone who truly wants to achieve what others have accomplished should do the right thing at the same time. When you see that Bitcoin is at a cheaper price, it is actually the moment to purchase Bitcoin, and even when it comes to earnings, you may earn large gains, which can even motivate you to buy more Bitcoin next time.

However, individuals that purchase Bitcoin at high prices end up losing a lot of money since they don't perform any study on the Bitcoin market before purchasing it. Having expertise and information about any investment is critical to your success, but not everyone understands this, which is why the number of people who lose money on investments outnumbers those who succeed.

I expect someone who doubted Bitcoin will have a lot of excuses for not buying it. It's up to them to decide when it is difficult to please someone and educate them as certainly they will stand for what they believe is right and true. So instead of helping this kind of people, we better focus on our doing. Even though we have proven Bitcoin as a profitable investment many times, that won't make everyone believe it. That is why we are still hearing people regretting and blaming themselves for not buying Bitcoin while it was $20k, $30, and soon because we all have not found BTC as a valuable asset at the same time, some just find it lately.

That's just the fact. When the price goes high they'd say no, it's been too exorbitant maybe they'd have to wait when the price goes down they'd not hesitate to buy. Meanwhile you as an experienced Investors would ask the person to buy just as he can afford despite the price rate possibly you're insighting more increments in the market maybe he can also partake to benefit from it or he'd wait for so long untill the prices skyrockets and then goes goes which may take a while.
He'd still be giving himself those false hope and not you who's trying to bring in up to the industry because he's only doing himself and not you.
And finally prices goes down you'll have him asking that when will it pump up again? So that I'd know my schedules to purchase before the time. At this time, he'd just find some nonsensical excuses of foolish himself as if he's investing for your own interests instead of his.
Infact, most of these excusers would make you feel like you're a team with the crypto industry and you're also part of the plans mapping on how to bring people into the platform and defraud them from their investments. This is just how most of them feels but they'd never tell you of that suspicious feelings.
