No, I sold it already

YES! These are My holding coins
ETH

NEO

EOS

I sold it already. Cause what, I look the situation is more not friendly day by day. So I decided to sell it.
But I'm still holding my ignis, don't know why I do it this. Ignis was magic me to not sell it..hahaha

I hold all my coins wich I bought and will hold till price will go at least x2-x3.Some coins I prefer to hold and sell only for rebuy again

Hodling is nonsense and limits crypt growth potential

Instead of hodling, the way to create an economy that fosters adoption and helps grow the network is through a spend and replace strategy.

For example, let’s look at a crypto user named Mark who has $100 worth of Bitcoin. Using the spend and replace strategy, he:

Spends $50 worth of BCH to buy something online
Uses fiat currency to purchase an additional $50 worth of BCH, replenishing his holdings to the amount he began with.
With this method, Mark is able to both use BCH and hold the currency for future gains. He is continuing to build his portfolio while using BCH as the digital currency it was intended to be.  This main benefit of this strategy is that it incentivizes businesses and individuals to adopt BCH while helping the network grow.

In a recent talk by Swedish Pirate Party founder Rick Falkvinge, he talks about how “hodling” is detrimental to the crypto economy,

“The whole idea is to grow the economy to a point where you no longer need to change cryptocurrencies back into central bank money and back again into cryptocurrency. The point was grow the economy where you receive your wages in Bitcoin, paid your rent in Bitcoin, paid your food in Bitcoin, shopped online with Bitcoin; where you no longer needed central bank money for anything where you would cut fiat entirely out of the loop. Once your only receiving new money in cryptocurrency and your using this cryptocurrency, then your on the path to a new monetary system.”

Remember people always will tell what do you want to hear, no one will tell you to accept the discomfiture.

Yes, i am still holding my altcoins especially who have great potentials.
I wait for the market to be back into normal with full of greens!
UTK
ATL
NEO
XEM
LYL
TKY
ETN
BTC
ETH
WAVES

This are my holdings that will hit the moon soon!

Well currently i am holding bitcoin and ethereum currently but i will sell the ethereum if the price continues to plummet i already lost 3200 usd in investment on ethereum only and i lost 12k usd in bitcoin now for bitcoin i may start to day to day trading since the price is struggling to rise but it still hanging on to 6-7k line so, i hope that i recover my money in future.

It makes sense to hold the newly issued coins after the ICO, who according to the campaign have plans for the future!

Of course! What else is there to due when in a loss besides HODL?

Yes, I have been holding my altcoins for the past 4 months and I am not planning to sell in near future. I would wait until the market pumps again.

some altcoin I still keep it for a long time, because I think, altcoin is currently in crisis, and maybe this crisis will not be easy to pass. but some altcoin I've sold because of the development that looks so slow

You are stupid if you sold in panic,sorry for the word but its true you are just worsen the situation of the market.Helping those market manipulators to get what they want? which is most of the people selling in panic so they can buyback from the dips and selling again after the market has some green candles making them millions of dollars.

Even given the red market trend, I still keep my tokens. I have enough patience. Now is not the best time to sell tokens.

Yes, I hold and I wait for price increase. And it it depends a lot on altcoins that you hold.
My long-term coins are infrastructure coins.

You are literally an idiot,sorry for the word but it is stupidity if you asked most of the people here! because you shouldnt be doing that selling at loss wont give any good to your portfolio,you could HOLD these shitcoins until the market has fully recovered so that your loss will be minimal compare to selling in panic that you wont recover anything.

Why did you not make a poll regarding this?
Well, to answer your looks like a spammy question, Yes I'm holding now altcoin and even tokens just wait for the Ethereum bounce
back in the market. As of now even trading I did not go in exchanging site due to this moment that all cryptocurrencies are down in the market.
Currently holding now is Ethereum, this coin is my top of priority in holding and make my portfolio full of this coin because I strongly believed that this coin is profitable after a months later, and also tokens.

I haven't sold any bounty coins, now is very offensive, I will wait for summer or fall and I will sell 50% provided that the market will go up. But many bounty coins is shit and scam, and all about them will forget.

You can actually make the poll here so that people can vote on your two options. You could have gotten % estimate of this result immediately by viewing the result. You can still edit the topic if you want. That will make it look like good one. Just through the perspective of the quality you know.  :D

Speaking about the question, I am pretty sure that im still holding my coins. I am not in the profit due to the current dropped rates and thus there is no way I will sell them at such lows. I will hold until I cross the break even and then will look out for how much % profit I have to grab. Then I will sell.

Yes, I hold Altcoins, but only a few. If you are going to keep altcoins for a long time, then, of course, choose them wisely. Not all coins are worth holding. A reasonable question arises: which altcoins should be retained in the long term? The answer is: those which have large daily trading volumes, behind which there is a large community and which have tangible prospects for development.

yes, I hold on and wait for the price to go up at least until the price goes back to the price as when I bought it, though not too much but still I feel the loss if I have to sell it now so from that I keep holding it until now

I disagrees with this one. I dont think that its limiting the growth of the crypto currencies in anyway. Do you know there are more liquid funds in the crypto than there are in the holding position. So holding process is not limiting the growth of them at all. Also know that holding of the coins also makes sure that supply in the market decreases a lot and thus it could increase the cost of coins due to demands. So holding is perfect thing and healthy one.


Yes I am holding my coins for the better profits. Thats logical. :-)

Is there any choice? The market does not show any growth. Many projects that began their development recently, just during the crisis, show simply a critically low cost. All prices are very low. You can not sell, because it's a loss.

Yes I'm still holding Altcoins, the market might have taken a huge dip, but it doesn't mean its coming to an end, The red zone will not last forever, as the coins will recover with time, im still holding on to the coins

There are coins in my wallet that I hold. Such as stratis and ether. But also I have coins which trade on exchanges.

In my opinion holding for sometimes is better anything will happen in crypto currency if it is possible way there is a big profits will come for us so please wait for some more days surely it will help you.

Yep, still holding strong and will continue to do so even if the bear market continues. I believe in the long term success of my holdings so what happens in between is not that relevant.

Yes of course,because if i wont ,i will be losing a lot of money! and that is unrecoverable if you did sell at loss! its either you will lose or you will get rekt for good,portfolio should be diversify so that you wont be losing big amount of money everytime these altcoins are bleeding thru these bitcoin's volatile movements which makes the market too unstable.

if the coin has a good potential in the market then i hold it but if the coin dont have a good potential i sell it immediately . and sometimes if the coin has a good potential and i will be going to earn a lot ill buy some coin or ill invest to it .

Yes i am holding my altcoins still now. Because due to bad market condition we can't sell our coins at low price.
Actually i think we should hold until price is not increase. So let's wait for high price and when it will be happen then we will sell our coins.

yes, because nothing more is left to do. if I sell now, then I will lose 60% of my deposit. it was necessary to sell 2 months ago

I have sold those which were in the profit for me and kept the rest one until I find the right exit point for them. Altcoin holding could be painful as it takes lot fo time for them to get developed and then circulate in the market with proper marketing. This then gets popular slowly slowly and then people will start using it over the course of time. Then you can see some prices spikes and exit points for you to leave the market and grab the profits as well. So you see if you have to reach at the end then you will need to wait and wait for long time! Im holding some of the coins for now this includes, ADA, IOTA, JNT, IPL, ETH.

If you really did sell in panic,you are going to lose a lot when the market has recovered and tha is for sure,selling at loss wont give you enough money to recover those loss but holding your coins could prevent that loss because whatever happen to the market it will surely going to recover by any means because if its not cryptocurrencies will come to its end.

Yes I’m holding the following:

THC
ICX
NANO
TAU

Alts have a very good future, these projects deserve a hit. Watch these out and DYOR on them. BTC and ETH are good to have in the portfolio but some of these Alts have impressed me a lot.

Yes, i am still holding my altcoins especially who have great potentials.
I wait for the market to be back into normal with full of greens!

CMT , ETH

Yes, there is no way back for me - I am in 70% dump, so there is only one way for me - just HODL. New grow phase is coming...

HODL till end, ARK, EOS, DRGN AND PRG are in my gang and looking promising. Rapidly progressing and delivering updates, depends on what you keep. These projects have a high chance of booming, PRG and EOS are my Fav among these.

Yes,because if you dont you are making a big mistake,holding altcoins could have save a lot of your investments,and selling at loss would only give you big loss from these bloody markets,that is why we need to stick with the plan holding when you are trapped with these altcoins and never do panic sell so that your loss would be small after the market has recovered.

Of course, I keep my coins, because now it would be foolish to sell everything, because the market is gradually recovering.

Of course I hold them. There is no point in selling an asset that has a growth potential of x2-x3 in the coming year.

as soon as the market began to fall, I started waiting and holding my coins. now that he's come down so hard , there is no sense that the sell. we are waiting for the market to go up

Yes I'm holding my altcoins especially the ones I got through bounty campaigns because I know they are going to appreciate and I don't want to regret selling them at the cheapest price just like some of my friends who sold his coins at $0.9, 6 weeks later, the coin rose to $5.

I am holding them because I truly believe in their potential. We are considered as early adopters so I don't think we'll go wrong. Technology is fast paced now and so as the market.

These coins are my favorite

Holding coins

1.ETH
2.NEO
3. NEM

My holding altcoin list STK Token, Genesisi Vision and INS Token. I am very hopeful of them.

For me, the best option is to hold till the market stabilised again. Although the current market situation is so dramatic and frustating but still I can only wait and hope for the best because I believe it can not continue this way. It will surely get better.

Yes...
I will wait and i am sure that price will be high and higher in long term.

Yes definitely. I still hold my altcoins because I believe that they are really high quality products and will be big. most of my portofilo consists of AION but I have some others too

yes, right now I am holding some coins. I wait for the price increase, it may take a long time but I remain optimistic that if there is a decrease then there must be an increase.

Yes, it has been a hard lesson learned that I should hold, each time I have gotten out of a coin completely a few months later it sky rockets and that has happened on more than one occasion so this time I am holding all.

me personally I don't hold other than BTC I invest in an ALT for a couple of months to maybe 6 months but I would always have BTC in mind, because my game is to increase my BTC holdings not any other alt. so my answer is: kinda, I kinda am holding alts.

Yes, I am willing to wait for the price to increase. I guess waiting and what we called holding is the right choice as of now that the coins are getting dumper and dumper each days that have been passed. By June as they all say, the price of the cryptocurrency coins are going to increase. So we should probably wait for that time to get the right value of the coins we want. And by that time the prices will gradually increase and to those coins we invest or buy or hold will make sense as there will be a profit on the things we invest on.

yes, i'm holding all of my altcoins and wait until the price increase again, i hope it will happen soon, i reall need those money, but i can't sell it now because the decrease of all of my altcoins are too much, so i'll wait a little longer

yes, I agree with you better now in Hold because the market is far from the general price, so keep be patient because I am sure the market will not continue to fall someday will increase, in the crypto world up and down the price is a natural thing, so stay patient waiting.

Yes I keep all my altcoins in the hope that the price will rise and I will be able to sell them more expensive

wait to wait for the market back up, so I still hold altcoin. I do not want to lose my money. I am still with my goal of benefiting from my investment

Yes I am holding some altcoin in my wallet, but some altcoin I am holding have been the crash and nothing value again, I have hold about 10k centra coin and price of centra too low now and very low. This coin have annoucement scam by the development their country and the team of centra was gone. To hard looking centra will grow up and I am not sure will can get much money from centra coin. Just sell your coin when have good price.

some of the coin i hold and some sold out.

I still hold the Altcoin I have and hope to increase the price for the future. so holding is the right choice for me. anyway, I still do not want to run trading.

Obviously yes, I'm waiting for altcoin prices to rise back like December. Maybe now the altcoin and bitcoin prices are still not stable, so from that I will keep my altcoin, I do not want to raise my losses :)Thanks

Yes im holding my coins most of my coins has a high rates in last year.  So i do same thing and waited patiently and positively at all the time.

in this time on market it will be a good move to hold our coins for now!
the markets is on its deep so lets wait for it to recover, but on me some of my coins/tokens are still on my wallet, holdinig waiting to get profit on it someday and some of it are in exchange, I am optimizing the markets volatility and go for trading. it will be a good time to trades in a volatile market. just sayin.

Not all, some of the coin that I owned seems like got bottomless end, so I already sold it, in alt coin you need to set bottom limit because once it fall down it will be hard to go up, but some of the alt coin still in my wallet, some of them are strong coins that I am sure will rise again and some of the coins are already too low to sell, so I just collect it

yes i hold some altcoin some I bought in january and partly the result of bounty,I will probably hold for the next few months waiting for the price increase and I will sell and I will not sell at a loss so the right step is to keep the price up hopefully it happens at the end of the year.

Yes, I wait for price increase.they are my holding coins eth, neo, eos, ltc, btc

Yes I wait for price increase most of my coins gone 10:1 ratio some coins even worst . Now learned the big lesson waiting for next huge fund flow inside crypto market whales are entering from wall stret . before any big investment they make strategy they start to dump market then they will buy from low . It is what happening in all trading sector. But be sure normal small investors are loosing hope . I am not seeing the hype happened like December will happen in near soe month . No big news more countries are regulating not allowing bank transaction . now its the hard time for crypto community .Even word HODL loosing value.

Most of my portfolio comes from ICOs (except for BTC, ETH, LTC, XRP - the latter might leave my portfolio soon), so my plan when I invested was always to HODL and not sell until I could sell a small portion of my coins / tokens at a price were I would recover my initial investment. Then I would HODL the remaining and not sell until the price seemed right to me / needed the money, ensuring some sort of profit.

Of course I'm holding my altcoins. And ı am not think to sell them, without getting to the prices I get. Everyone can win in this market. just need to know to wait.

Only inexperienced investors are selling at the bottom. Anyone who has been in crypto a long time will tell you to accumulate, accumulate, accumulate! Everything is on sale! Remember back in December? We thought we'd never get coins this cheap again! Don't wait until the fear of missing out sets in again!

I have several years hold some altcoins and never regretted that he has not sold them. I think in the next few years, the price of top altcoins will continue to grow and there is no point in selling them.

I am holding Ethereum, EOS, Stellar, IOTA. For now there is no better way than hold and wait the the price rises up again.

At the moment, when the market in such a bad situation, I keep my coins until the market begins to grow. But there are also such coins that have grown a lot and when I like the course, I sell this coin. Now you need to protect the coins in order to sell them when the market grows and get more profit.

That's correct, it's good to hold solid altcoins so in the bear market it will not fall down hard.
When there is a big support from it's investors the value will not totally dump, the coins you are holding are trader in big exchanges with good volume.
I have also low volume coins in my wallet and I notice when we are in the bull market they also pump, maybe I'll wait for that time to sell and buy other solid coins.

i have retained some coins with potential . like EOS NEO ARK and NCASH . i believe their prices will go up . now their prices are seriously underestimated and they will erupt after the market becomes a bull market .

Patient is needed if you did not really want to loose heavyly during this time of dumping market. I will hold and remain focus and patiently waiting for price to recover. I think we are experiencing what happens in 2014 and the best thing to do now is holding as if we did not see bullish and pumping this year by next year we may see it.

I`m still holding my altcoins right now (BTC and ETH) I just invested them last week. And I believe with this token that will rise there price sooner. Holding such coins is my pleasure because it gives me more profit that I have imagined when I continue in holding them.

I believe in the long-term success of my possessions so that what's going on is not so relevant, holding some of the altcoins I bought in January and part of the proceeds from the bounty,
 I'll probably stay for the next few months waiting for the price increase and I'll sell so the right step is to keep the price so that it may happen at the end of the year.

Yes, I wait for price increase。Of course, I only hold quality projects, not garbage. I believe in the future.

Yes, becouse market is in a state now, where I cannot let myself to sell some alts so cheap, remembering that not so long ago their price was higher.

I didn't sell all the coins, despite the fact that the market fell so heavily more than a week ago. I decided to keep some coins, because there was no point in selling and fixing the loss of 90 percent. I see that altcoins are beginning to grow and I hope that soon I will make some profit.

Some of the altcoins that I have has still low prices so I still hold it for now, because I believe it will have an increase sooner or later. Some of my altcoins have been sold because of panic selling, and I need it to be converted into my local currency. So far, so good, and I know there will be better coins in the next months and years.

Several altcoins that I have in the portfolio has begun to grow slowly along with bitcoin. Expect the growth to continue, because most of the altcoins that I keep holding has reached an ath which is much high compared to price at present. If the growth reaches at least 50% of the past ath it'll be a better for the holding period.

I am still holding some altcoin that are potential. It is now the time to buy and hold more as this is now the of bull. Thus is better to keep my altcoins.

I think keeping an altcoins is a good strategy. I am sure that many coins and tokens will bring a good profit this year. Capitalization of the market is growing every day. So far we can observe very positive dynamics ..

This year, the main factors affecting the price change will be statements and methods of suppressing and encouraging the market from the states. If you think that in case of market regulation, the crypto currency will negatively affect the cost of bitcoin, then you are mistaken. Crypto currency is already a recognized fact that has to be "legalized" a bit, after which, it will be quite official and recognized money that operates within its technology. If regulation of the crypto-currency begins to occur at the state level, then officials and other specialized structures will have questions to exchange points.

I agree at 100%, we all should be holding this year, a lot of things are going to happen during the next few months and we all agree on that. Just keep up with the holding method, it will never fail us (i have seen people lost potential profits because of selling)

My portofolio right now is 100% in ETH.
I'm sure it will reach 1k in less than 1 months.
It has a great protential growth

Yea..it must.primary coin from bounty must we hold untill high price over ico price..and then we can sell it.if we sell after distribution program we will get down price new token..many bounty hunter selling it and dump

of course, I feel optimistic about the coin I am holding right now and it seems it will give me a big advantage, plus the current market condition is getting better. this is the name of the coin I hold: Ethereum, bitcoin, and ripple.

yes I still hold it, I am still waiting for price increasa that expensive to sell it. for now all altcoin prices are still in the red zone all due to the impact of bitcoin that started up. but I'm sure that all altcoin prices will go up. that's the right time for me to sell it.
