For Brian Armstrong, it is a mistake to believe that only large investments in BTC and ETH are worth it.
Saifedean Ammous and Rodolfo Andragnes maintain that it is still possible to invest.
Brian Armstrong, CEO of the cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, sought to clarify what some specialists consider a myth about bitcoin (BTC) and digital assets: the belief that they are already too expensive for new investors.
In a recent publication, Armstrong stated that he disagreed with this argument.: «A common mistake is thinking that cryptocurrencies are too expensive for new users. You don’t need to buy a full BTC or ETH to get started. You can start buying and holding cryptocurrencies with just a few dollars. “It’s never too late.”
With these words, the executive look for motivate those who are thinking about investing for the first time in the sector. His message finds support in other opinions within the industry, such as that of investor Mike Alfred.
«No one, absolutely no one, can tell you where bitcoin is headed in the next hours, days or weeks. But everyone, absolutely everyone who has been bearish on bitcoin for even a few weeks in the last 15 years, has been wrong. “Each and every one, without exception,” pointed out Alfred.
At this point it is important to highlight that, in the last five years, bitcoin has registered a profitability of 845.27%. Despite having gone through multiple periods of sharp declines, Satoshi’s creation has managed to recover and continue its upward trend.
From a broader perspective, economist Saifedean Ammous offers an analysis that was reported a few months ago by CriptoNoticias. For the finance specialist, “the fact that the price of bitcoin has risen considerably does not mean that it cannot continue to rise even more.”
In this way, Ammous maintains that, unlike traditional companies like Apple, whose growth potential is limited by its consumer base, bitcoin aims at a truly global market and therefore will not face major limitations.
Bitcoin for future generations
Adding to these perspectives is that of Rodolfo Andragnes, founder of the NGO Bitcoin Argentina, who agrees that it is never too late to join. As he explained, as understanding the fundamentals of BTC becomes more accessible, confidence in its long-term robustness also increases: “You are not late for bitcoin, it is simply becoming easier to understand it and the risk of failure decreases.”
He also added that, in the current financial context, those who do not allocate at least 20% of their assets to BTC could be overlooking the transformations that the global economic system is going through. Furthermore, he considered that that percentage should increase when planning the capital transfer to future generations.
The convergence of these perspectives shows that getting started in bitcoin does not require large sums of money, but rather learning about this asset. With modest investments and a long-term vision, anyone can be part of an ecosystem that, according to specialists, still has enormous growth potential.
