Topic: Wise Sayings That Are Applicable To Cryptocurrency (Read 208 times)
I think most crypto users at the beginning lost money, but they earned lessons that have been inspiring to learn more and take action. Then we try to do something creative by using our lesson and we gain knowledge and become experienced whether we loser or gainer. At the end of the day, we got all the points on how we could be a gainer by using our knowledge and experience. That's how cryptocurrency works and we learn.
Lets get the conversation going, share a wise saying you know that is applicable to cryptocurrency, or feel free to construct or come up with your own wise saying based on your knowledge, and please take time to explain so that we can understand, we all are here to teach and learn.
I find some of the quotes by Benjamin Graham and David Dodd to also be applicable in cryptocurrency investment.
- “The
- "To be an (bitcoin) investor you must be a believer in a better tomorrow."
- "Buy not on optimism, but on arithmetic."
- "Successful investing is about managing risk, not avoiding it."
- "Individuals who cannot master their emotions are ill-suited to profit from the investment process."
I will add the one mostly said after the price drops dramatically: "the time to buy is when there's blood in the streets".
It seems that it was said by Nathan Rothschild.

-Experience - To succeed in this space, you definitely need experience...
It is very correct that experience is needed in this space to do well, but how about those who just joined, is no experience enough for them to get discouraged after reading something like this? We should also be able to point out that though personal experience may sometimes give the best lessons, it is more advicable if you can learn from the experience of others in this field if you have none rather than waiting and only wanting to learn from your own experience, you may never recover.
Expectation is a big word. Although we had some expetience on trading or knew what to do its not always go to our expctation or should I say a win win for us. Even professional traders who are well knew how its operate got fucked some time but thats fine cause its really not a perfect parameter to win a trading but onky just a guide. Same goes for investment.
No need to set high expectations even if you are an expert or a newbie in investing or trading. Because we all know that we are dealing with such an unpredictable market, so no one can predict correctly what will be the future outcome. Although we aim big out from trading or investing in crypto, but we should not expect too much from them as they can go in the opposite direction and leave us frustrated.Your expectations can be high because you want to make a profit which is your main aim in investing or starting a trade, but it does not change the outcome of what the market will bring for the day, any crypto trader or investor will always be optimistic that whatever they invest will turn out well having done all the analysis and gone through the history of the coins they want to trade, when they encounter losses, they never stop expecting good returns.
Now talking about altcoins, it's wrong for both investment and trading because there's a low chance altcoins price will always increase, more over it could become a dead coin and you will rekt.
With so many altcoins now being created every year in the crypto space, it is really hard to determine which is a good investment. For me, speculation make a great factor that it will pump in the future but it doesn't guarantee that it is a long term investment and will not rekt you. That is what I've learn with the LUNA and UST issue, I haven't bought it but my friends did and that time they keep saying it has good fundamentals but look what happened now.
"Invest what you can afford to lose" saying will always be the best for me even though anyone already knows it.
How do you apply this to your crypto trading and investing?
Pretty simple if we look at the past 5 years. Every single altcoin has lost a significant part of its price against bitcoin with no exceptions. That means none of them are ever good for "investment" when you have a choice between bitcoin and altcoins.A more detailed look at the altcoin market shows that they are only good for short term high risk trading since they only get pumped and dumped.

Some of my gains were also unexpected knowing my limited knowledge on trading. I understand the fact that losing is inevitable on crypto and I had done that many times over and got some really bad decisions why not sold why not hold. Its seem its in fact depend on our greed calculator how are we gonna get profit and get rekt at the same time. 
"But Fud sell FOMO" is another saying and more applicable to the cryptocurrency investors.
What can we expect from our investment also has to be realistic even though the cryptocurrencies are giving high returns still we need to have our greed under control or be ready for complete loss.

Pretty much every Warren Buffett quote on the top of my head is pretty applicable.
“If you aren’t willing to own astockbitcoin for 10 years, don’t even think about owning it for 10 minutes.”
“Our favorite holding period is forever.”
“Risk comes from not knowing what you are doing.”
“Never invest ina businessan asset you cannot understand.”
"Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful.”
The list goes on.

-Experiment - Decisions you are making today is an experiment, experiment means you aren't sure of the end result, buying bitcoin or any other form of cryptocurrencies today is an experiment because you aren't sure of what will become the price in the future, but you still have to invest because you have an.....
Of course we can say that some of our decisions are based on expectations that again stem from some of our previous experiences or the experiences of some other people, but the future is always uncertain no matter how much experience we have and no matter what we know about something.
I think it is wrong that most consider investing in Bitcoin only as a way to one day reach their magical exit point and profit, and not as what it was actually created for. Therefore, I think that each individual should have his role when it comes to the future, because if we let the big ones become the main players, there is no doubt that they will destroy everything they can get their hands on just for the sake of greater profit.
Bitcoin is not just a matter of making as much profit as possible, it is something much bigger - but it may only be understood by those who use it as a currency at least from time to time.
It's simple.
Just use your trading & investment EXperience yesterday in your trading & investment EXperiment today to achieve your trading & investment EXpectation(s) tomorrow.
It is not that simple, you could use your trading experience of 'yesterday' in your trading 'today' and still lose, you could even lose more than you did the previous day, the market is unpredictable and you cannot predict or guess what is going to happen. Trading is difficult, better one avoids it, but if you cannot always be ready to endure losses. Investment is much better, you can either use dollar cost averaging to buy bitcoin periodically, or you can buy a lump sum and hold it. Just use your trading & investment EXperience yesterday in your trading & investment EXperiment today to achieve your trading & investment EXpectation(s) tomorrow.
Can we separate discussing about Bitcoin and altcoins?
What you've said above about Bitcoin as an investment is correct since from the historical, Bitcoin price will always increase even we're faced so many dump due to fake news and so on. Using Bitcoin for trading doesn't always work with your past experience since the market could go otherwise.
Now talking about altcoins, it's wrong for both investment and trading because there's a low chance altcoins price will always increase, more over it could become a dead coin and you will rekt.
