There are a lot of “almost-bitcoiners” who finally become convinced that Bitcoin has real value…
but instead of buying, they get stuck trying to time the perfect dip.
They wait for:
- a dip
- a deeper dip
- confirmation of the dip
- a dip after the dip
And while they’re waiting, they lose focus, get distracted and Bitcoin moves on without them.
Unfortunately they don’t miss Bitcoin because they were wrong about it.
They miss it because they were trying to optimize an entry instead of actually taking one.
But the irony is that timing the entry is rarely what separates outcomes.
There are tons of people who bought Bitcoin in 2011, 2013, 2015, 2018, 2020…
and still sold at losses or tiny gains.
So clearly, the differentiator wasn’t being early.
It was developing the ability to hold through crashes, bad headlines, volatility, fear, and doubt from mainstream experts.
Timing buys is not the game to play for anyone with a long-term horizon imo.
