[Planet408]

A lot of people jump into bitcoin investment without knowing the right time to venture into bitcoin investment. Many investors buy bitcoins when the price is high and their chances of making profits becomes so minimal.

One of the common mistakes they do is panic selling when the price had a sharp drop. Like they never learn and doesn't trust that Bitcoin will regain and surpass the previous ATH. They will willingly sell their investments lower than the price they purchased it for and then Blame and call Bitcoin a scam

I have seen many people do this. I think that it is natural to try and blame the coin after you make a huge last because you are trying to find some sort of reason for the loss that you have suffered that does not hold you accountable. At the end of the day it is all decisions that we make that decide whether we make a profit or loss in a cryptocurrency market. Well they are some scum coins that are out there, certainly Bitcoin is not one of them. And I think that it is important for people to own up to the trade that they have made so that it gives them the chance to learn from their mistake.

Often we hear crypto investors make common mistakes that they don't realize, both beginners and senior investors. mistakes that often occur are forgetful, careless and do not have knowledge of crypto. Because of this, I created a new thread to discuss common mistakes of cryypto investors, so they don't happen to Bizdustry members, as well as to share experiences and knowledge about common mistakes of Bitcoin investors.

I also think it's because of the popularity of Bitcoin that makes people to rush into it without any pre knowledge about cryptocurrency trading and Investment. People should get the necessary knowledge before jumping into this wild markets.

Social media has a big impact on cryptocurrency trading and investing. So, it is no wonder that investors and crypto creators do their utmost to hype up a token. This happened a lot during the 2018 crypto market crash and still has an impact on investors to this day.

When using social media, be cautious of things that appear too good to be true. Common news articles like “Bitcoin made me Millions” or “Bitcoin is going to Rocket in Value” are often misleading. This doesn’t mean that it can’t make you millions or that the price of Bitcoin won’t change. But more often than not, media hype causes a bubble in investment that makes a cryptocurrency jump in value. As a result, the long-term investors sell to make a huge profit, leaving other investors with a stock that isn’t going to be profitable.

This hype caused many fortunes to be made when Bitcoin surged in 2017, but for those who hadn’t sold before the bubble burst it caused financial misery. In fact, Bitcoin still hasn’t bounced back from that huge drop in investor confidence almost a year later.

Another thing to be wary of is new crypto tokens that seem to be the latest craze. Again, this hype will likely push up the value and may be considered an attractive investment prospect, but oftentimes when the dust settles it turns out not to be.

The best thing to do to combat hype is familiarize yourself with the crypto world by reading expert blogs as well as information available online. This will allow you to invest in cryptocurrency that you fully understand and will help you make informed investment choices.

One of the common mistakes that bitcoin investors make is buying bitcoin when the price is at an all time high. The mistakes often happens due to the frenzy that occurs whenever bitcoin price hits an all time high, the investors that misses out when the price was low start buying bitcoin despite the price. When the price comes down they'll realize they made a big mistake.

I agree with you on this, which is why I always advice any newbie just wanting to invest in Bitcoin to ensure they get the required knowledge before venturing into the crypto market. Some is them buy high and end up selling low when they are scared the price might hit rock bottom

The probleblem with new investors I not knowing the right time to go I to the market. To them once the coin starts rising they jump into the market. And then buy at high prices but when it falls they are at risk of loss. Some short time investors too are guided by greed they set a wide leverage. Not setting a stop limit is another

This one is simple, yet many investors choose an exchange without first reading up on the fees or practices of that exchange. Some of the largest and most popular crypto exchanges also have the highest fees.

High fees mean lower profit margins and, as an investor, you want to be seeking out low-fee secure exchanges to make your portfolio more profitable. With high fees, your investment will have to grow further for you to sell at a profit. Making sure that you’re using the best exchange for your portfolio is vital.

By no means are cryptocurrencies the only asset to be hacked by thieves, but there are serious fraud and theft concerns that accompany bitcoin. For instance, novice bitcoin investors may not understand the need to store their tokens in a digital wallet, thereby leaving them susceptible to theft by hackers

 

[Kinglegend01]

One of the common mistakes bitcoin traders make is that they made no research or know little or nothing about cryptocurrencies before investing in them( majority of them just heard about cryptocurrencies as a means of getting a plus value on your money without knowing that most cryptocurrencies especially bitcoins are volatile and that sell off their bitcoins once the price fluctuates negatively, so they end up losing money).

 

[Lyrrex]

The only mistake I can possibly point out that new investors make when investing in bitcoins or other cryptocurrency is that sometimes they don't know the right moment to buy coins, some people are always too impatient to wait for the right moment to buy bitcoins which this can lead to loss because they buy bitcoins when bitcoins was about dropping in price, if you are patient enough to understand how the market of cryptocurrency work as a newbie you will not have any problem that's my own point of view.

Some common mistakes of bitcoin investors is that they sold their coin too early and now some are regreating while for some they forgot their blockchain ID or password and they can't have access to it at the moment.
