Topic: Why did you miss Bitcoin? - page 2. (Read 1116 times)

The reason why i miss bitcoin because it was not value in my country than centralized currency and the government hate decentralized currency in the country. It was very difficult for me to look for a facilitator who will lecture me all the of cryptocurrency strategy and how to  acquire good knowledge of cryptocurrency to be part of the potential investors.
 Despite other countries that adopted bitcoin their economy was doing well and some other countries were following their steps they took by make bitcoin legalized in their country. Bitcoin just legalized in my country few years ago that is giving all the citizens free access to bitcoin investment.

I missed BTC because I was just a script kiddie at the time it was below 1$. I've read about it in a forum back then, but never bothered to use it.
Why use weird hash-money I don't really understand, when I can play Habbo Hotel without using BTC? When BTC was at 10$ I was stoked that
this thing still existed and seems to be rising in price. I told my parents and they shrugged it off as stupid teenager shit. Me having no own
Bank account or even when I had one not being 18 made it a real struggle to buy BTC. After being told over and over again that BTC is nothing
special and it will be useless I "forgot" about it.

When BTC hit 1.000$ I was more or less old enough to understand English and cryptographic stuff well enough to, at least somewhat, understand
what BTC does and how it does it. I thought "damn, I'm to late now. Should've bought it when it was around 1-10$" and never stopped learning
about BTC, but also never bought anything. Buying BTC was still pretty weird for me at the time.

Fast forward: BTC is now worth 4k. I bought my first 200-ish Dollars of BTC and feel like missing out again. Btc goes to 17k. Drops to 3k. I bought
a bit here and there. Bought a fuckton of stupid altcoins. Made A LOT of mistakes and now I more or less trust that BTC will be the last money
we'll ever use. BTC is just superior to anything else I've ever seen.

BTC feels like Linux + Internet + Money, just on Crack. Its funny that we live in this transitory time where no one REALLY knows what will happen,
but deep down many know BTC will be the solution many people are searching for.

I don't regret buying BTC "too late". I think BTC will be worth a lot more in the future, but the most valuable thing about BTC is that saving money
finally makes sense again. I hate spending money. Bitcoin fixes this.

As they skip and ignore Bitcoin, I don't think that they have the right to get disappointed, it was their fault either.
Bitcoin is not for everyone, I think we know that and this is for the right person who thought and believe that investing in Bitcoin won't end frustration but glory. And those who come and trust Bitcoin will have their rewards, yet, it can't be instant but for sure there are huge benefits awaiting them. It can be sorry for them but can't force them to have trust on the very first day, realizations comes late.

People who choose to skip Btcoin and suddenly the Bitcoin price spikes must be very disappointed and hope that time can be repeated. The problem of time and price is still the main thing coupled with unstable market conditions. Besides that, everyone's mindset is different, this is difficult to change because the first thing that comes to mind is biased and difficult to change because it has entered the planning section.

ofcourse I really miss bitcoin because that's what I'm used to now being a bitcoiner before last year I stopped here at bitcoin and after a year my life got bored as if I was looking for bitcoin and soon I came back here  hoping to be real and able to increase my knowledge of a crypto currency and hopefully how long will I be here in bitcoin for a long time

Bitcoin traders who have made a profit while the bull run is running in the market for a long period of time do not usually want to create pressure so they are resting for some time. But they will never miss investing in bitcoin because they are always analyzing the market and knowing the updated information will keep re investing in bitcoin as soon as the bullish trend occurs. Signs of profit entering the market at the right time I also do not miss bitcoin investment because the price of bitcoin will go up further.

Investors make money, but also lose money because of cryptocurrencies. However, for many people, not investing in Bitcoin and crypto is denying the opportunity to become rich.
Many people use blockchain - the underlying technology of cryptocurrencies - but do not know or understand exactly how they work.
Fear of missing out, volatile magnetic stimulation, and life-changing expectations of Bitcoin have led millions to flock to the crypto market despite the risks.
Besides, the strong spread of information about Bitcoin transactions on social networking platforms strongly contributes to the growth of the cryptocurrency. Nowadays, from the image of celebrities investing in Bitcoin, to the high engagement of the Bitcoin community on Twitter or TikTok, social media has become an effective channel for promoting Bitcoin.

It hard me to believe on digital decentralized currency those days. I see decentralized currency as a scam currency just because am use to centralized currency over some years in my country and bitcoin is not legalized. Even when I was seeing some genuine result from bitcoin users, I still not believe in their result until I carry out my own research to discover I have miss a lot from bitcoin.
One of my lecturer in the department of business administration those days gave me some guideline to go through before i discovered I have missed a lot of profits. He showed me the reality of bitcoin in the community and how students can invest small amount of money and earn well at the end of the month or year.

This is so true. We don't discuss this when btc is bearish. I remember in Dec 2018, when btc was under 4000$ we were not discussing ideas of gathering btc rather there were discussions about whether btc will go down to zero or not.
If I talk about myself I missed btc at dips only because of my personal fear. I was among that majority who are fearful to buy when btc is bearish.

The investor who introduced me to Bitcoin wasn't able to sell the idea of Bitcoin to me ideally. It was first presented to me as a ponzi because he was able to buy when Bitcoin was $200 and when it grew to $1000 he tried talking me into it but I got scared because of my experience with scammers in the past. I am not still regretting because there is no lateness in cryptocurrency investment

All of that happened only when the price of Bitcoin skyrocketed. Those who say "it's a shame I didn't buy it at that time", it's just regrets for those who don't dare to buy Bitcoin in small or large quantities.

Well in my opinion lack of proper information, knowledge and a bunch of controversial news and forums had misled many potential purchasers. Also, less understanding of how marketplaces of digital currency works were also one of the main factors that had caused many potential purchasers. Trust-building is a key factor for all types of business which and the same was observed in this case. It was the only reason I missed Bitcoin.

If you look at the past, of course, we have a little regret why we didn't hold bitcoins until now. but indeed if we place it in the past, there is a sense of fear to decide at that time. but the thing we need to realize is that everything has a risk and do we dare to take that risk to be a winner

I think going back in time and still have the opportunity to know all the things I know now, it will surely make a difference because then you are able to understand and witness what btc can be, it will be easy to want to put all your life savings in it knowing the future is very bright,

But if going back in time don't include having this present knowledge about btc alongside it, I doubt I will be able to make the right decision because there will always be that fear of not knowing what the future holds.

* If I'm given that chance to go back 10yrs then ofcourse I would really have that initiative take out my own money knowing that it'll be much more valuable in the future and be more comfortable.
* Yes I will hold as much as I could practically, then take out only what's necessary like needs and small wants then the rest is invest for the future.
* Yes you can say that you are no expert and you don't know that bitcoin will be this much valuable today, if ever I would take some time to do reserch after I hear your advice.

One reason, because back then I thought it was a scam, and only bad people will have it to buy some stuff on the deep web.

.
Reason many people didn't expect Bitcoin to be where it has reached out today was  that Bitcoin was new they know nothing about it and some people also have a feeling that Bitcoin is like Ponzi scheme that may crash at anytime. Ignorance was the problem why people miss Bitcoin. I missed Bitcoin too that earlier time too.

The people who were in the crypto in the early days of 2016 and 17 when the Bitcoin price was $2000 $3,000 and they denied the bitcoin and it's potential. Those are the ones who really missed the bitcoins as they did not purchase them at such a low price. Now when they see btcoin over 50000 dollars and 60000 dollars , they really regret their decision at that time.

Some missed but some did not , that is the market cycle so it will go further and valuing to increase year after year. those who denied bitcoin in the past is now very eager to invest and this change the course .
I knew it because i am once denied crypto years back but comes a great comeback before 2017 and make my way earning and enjoying from all the Hype each halving year.
and now that adoption comes here and there then why needed to miss another chance? just Buy and Hold and you'll see income sooner.

At the beginning of the emergence of Bitcoin, many people doubted Bitcoin will continue to grow, so many people missed the moment where Bitcoin became very valuable. Many people regret not buying it when the price was still very cheap in 2010, if only at that time we had 5BTC at the current price of course today we would be rich. But I think we still have the opportunity to invest in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies that have the potential to rise very high like Bitcoin, for example by buying Ethereum or other altcoins.
