It\u2019s a fact that most Bitcoin purchases happen during these hype phases.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the chart represents periods when Bitcoin\u2019s price was lower than the current $43,000 (indicated by the green line) and times it was higher (red line). This means that for 94% of its history, Bitcoin\u2019s price was lower than it is today, and only for 6% of the time, it was higher.<\/p>\n<p>However, this doesn\u2019t necessarily indicate that <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/cryptocurrencies\/section\/what-is-a-bitcoin\/\">Bitcoin<\/a> was profitable on 94% of the days. It merely shows that the current price is higher than most of its past prices. This distinction is crucial for understanding Bitcoin\u2019s actual market performance.<\/p>\n<p>A more effective investment strategy is to spread purchases over time. This approach not only minimizes the impact of small price fluctuations but also ensures a more stable average buying price for Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong>177% up to 5BTC + 77 <strong> Free Spins<\/strong>!<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only.
