Title: What does HODL mean ?
Post by: laineux on December 26, 2017, 03:03:04 PM
Hello all

I often read HODL since I am a miner like you

What is it ?
Is it related to the word "hold" ?

Thanks

Someone once misspelled the word HOLD, and it became a meme for anyone suggesting you hold your coins instead of selling them.

Ok. Very simple when you know the private joke.

Thanks

With "SELL" we don't have that problem

When the things look dire, and you`re holding the coin, not selling no matter what, HODL can also mean Hold On your Dear Life.
