I’m genuinely disappointed that I didn’t go with my gut instinct and buy Bitcoin few months back when it was $27k - $32k range. Is it too late to get in and make profits? I have set aside some capital to get fully invested this year.

[@floresbyron4591]

You can dollar cost average in. With the right entry points, volatility in investing is your friend! Bought the dip & watched it begin to rise again! This is how it's done! Bitcoin is on a wild ride and it’s been a spectacular sight to see. Just hit another good run today (+125% profit).

[@abdulazizal-zahrani7519]

Well, I’m a bit skeptical. I mean sure, the price is rising, but isn’t it risky to investing in something so volatile. What if it crashes again.

[@floresbyron4591]

That’s a valid concern, While the hype around Bitcoin is exciting, relying solely on speculation can be risky.

[@floresbyron4591]

I usually go with registered representative; Christopher David Pecktol, He provides a more grounded approach, looking at factors like market demand, regulatory changes, and adoption trends. This approach enable to make informed decisions rather than solely relying on emotional market dynamics.

From my observation and historical market pattern, there might be a bit of turbulence in the market coming up, but here's the deal: Trying to guess what's going to happen next is less important than spreading your bets when trading and thinking long term. It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady...managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 732k in the space of a few months...

It is advisable to seek guidance from a professional or a licensed expert in order to navigate this recession and achieve potential high yields

[@graceamsterdam5404]

What if, because of the combination of currency potential and limitedness and ofcourse it’s lack of precedentness, bitcoin growth does not develop in cycles but in an old fashioned marketing envelope curve? After mass adoption comes mass usage (especially with all the heavily inflated fiats). After the usage comes the disconnection of valuation against fiat (maybe fiat will be valued against bitcoin?). And as a final stage, it has all the potential to become the world currency. That would be a beautiful envelope growth development of bitcoin. Economy can grow as much as it wants, but the value is not inflatable. Sounds not impossible.

Riddle me this. Miners provide node blockchain verification, decreasing. Clients are momentary. We're about to have the majority of miners flip to unprofitable. Say ⅔ of the effective hash rate will disappear (some leave, more efficient ones can do less). Those that are above water, may pursue higher returns elsewhere. So, a thing that's already awkward (for most) and slow... is about to get much slower? More illiquid? And how can that possibly be good? And ofc, how can it be bad... go wrong?

You are missing the bitcoin mining difficulty adjustment algorithm. Look at what happened in 2021, China banned bitcoin mining, resulting in over 50% of bitcoin mining instantly disappearing. The bitcoin network chugged along without any hiccups. Sure, Bitcoin had somewhat slower blocks for a few weeks, but then the difficulty automatically retargeted to blocks coming in every ten minutes. That is a clear demonstration of the absolute decentralized robustness of Bitcoin that nothing else has demonstrated. Bitcoin can absolutely handle 2/3 of hashrate disappearing instantly, not a problem. Also, in bitcoin, anyone can run a full node on regular computer, mining is not required for anyone to run a full node to do full trustless blockchain verification.

[@big6316]

My question is similar but I couldn't articulate it as well as you. Basically, halving makes mining more pain than gain at some point. When miners cut out to do something easier for less trouble who makes this thing work?
