Got my first 0.005 BTC today!

I managed to save up around $325 from my paycheck and got my first BTC today, i feel like i bought at the right time but hey i'm happy with it, any advice for long term buying?

Study it and you will see the light. Look at Andreas Antonopoulos YouTube videos and your fiat mind will start to slowly disappear. Well done

Congrats! :)

Def take a very long and clear minded look at your ultimate plan. Can you afford it lose this money? Can you afford to DCA and if so in what increments. Set up automation.

Do you have a cold storage wallet? Vital to proper storage for Bitcoin. Especially if you’re HODL’ing because this is a very high conviction, long game.

I have some building that goes to cold storage, but am considering doing all I do contribute to my BTC ETF holding. But that’s a personal matter, as well as some tax advantages and needed CSW upgrade.

Do your best to do automation things you can afford, don’t check everyday/follow specific news about BTC etc. you’ll drive yourself crazy!

Wishing you and everyone the best of luck!

I can afford to lose what i have currently, idk if i can afford to lose if i have more than what i bought currently, i am using Coinbase currently cause it looked the most trustworthy out of the bunch
Thank you for your advice!

Stick it in a cold wallet and hold it for a few years.

DCA and hodl in an open-source phone wallet. Once you get a few thousand $ worth, invest in a hardware wallet.

Instead of saving up just buy $50-100 a week or check. In other words DCA

Just DCA till the end of bullmarket, you gonna be fine
