Bitcoin Forum

Everyone in here is desperate to convince each other the Bitcoin can only go up and therefore you have to buy and hold.

But when you buy Bitcoin, someone is selling it to you.

Why are people selling Bitcoin?


The knowledgeable people are the ones who are now slowly selling out before the bubble bursts. When you are now buying more and more Bitcoin ("investing" as people in here call it) who do you think you are buying them from?

You are buying from the knowledgeable people who are slowly getting rid of their Bitcoin.

Well, the same thing is happening all the time (an equal amount of BTC is being bought as the amount that's sold).  It's hardly a relevant observation. 

All we know is that right now,  the market regards 1 BTC to be worth about $7,750.  Whether or not you think that's justified is another matter (actually, I agree that it's not justified) but don't just use the existence of supply and demand to try and justify it, because that always applies.
I'm not.

Supply and demand is not the relevant question. The relevant part is WHO is buying and selling. And when you see the amateur-investors, which this forum is filled with, taking the buy side in a naive vision that Bitcoin can only go up - and the clever larger investors slowly selling their Bitcoin - you know the party is about to end.

Notably, it's a lot harder to gauge how many people (and which people) are getting caught up in this bubble than you think.

The forum users here are not the most reasonable.  A lot of them aren't actually investors, they're spammers.  And r/bitcoin is extremely censored, so it's quite difficult to post directly opposing arguments.

You can't gauge the huge amount of people (arguably most of them) that are not on this forum or on Reddit at all.

Because even though no matter how bullish you are on bitcoin, some people are still going to need fiat; probably to pay for bills, to buy random stuff, to pay for some sort of emergency, because they are short on fiat, those stuff. Deal with it, bitcoin isn't used enough(especially in 3rd world countries) that you can live with bitcoin alone. We still currently need fiat to pay most stuff.

You can say the same thing about any stock, share, gold, silver, precious metals, gemstones, etc, etc. If someone is buying, someone is selling. Is everything a bubble? Obviously not.

If you for example see shares in a company going up in value when the large investors and owners are selling out to small ignorant new investors, then yes that is a clear sign of a bubble

It could be any person with any reason, and you just actually assumed that everyone is desperate, that is where your arguments becomes flawed. Seems like almost everything to you is a bubble.

To buy more bitcoins whenever a correction happens and newcomers drop theirs :P

In all seriousness though: I guess diversification and risk management. Even if you are bullish about the long term prospects of Bitcoin it would be foolish to stay within one asset class and keep all your eggs in one basket. At least that's how I would think.



For the most part the sentiment still looks relatively sane with little euphoria though -- I guess people have gotten mostly used to the current price levels? -- question being how strong the panic sets in once the next correction comes. You probably could correlate how low it will go with the amount of panic posts in the speculation boards.

People sell bitcoin to use it from offline transactions since some stores haven't develop online marketing. Some are selling for trading, making a profit out of buying some stocks and sell it for a purpose of getting more money.

bitcoin is equal to gold. the total supply is already the same as the gold, the gold in the world, so it causes the high price, the more buy the higher the bitcoin price, the people sell the bitcoin for profit, after which they will buy below their price sell then sell again, and so on, the same as people sell gold in the real world but this is in the world of cryptocurency

It is a common practice in trading that if no one is selling their asset on the current offered price the buyers have no choice but to increase their offer until a seller has match the price that is offered, the same thing can happen to when the price is decreasing now the power will now be in the hands of the buyers as they are the once who are determining the price they want to buy your offload shares. Not everyone has the same mindset and some are selling now because maybe the price of Bitcoin at 7000$ is their target price.

There are many reasons but basically price of BTC is up and down. People will sell high and buy again when the price decrease. Some others want to cash out to avoid risk.

I think he does not understand a Bitcoin trade, so from that he gives an argument that makes people think little about it, for him the bubble is a great advantage to get everything.

people could sell btc for a lot a reason that could be also truly different between. like you can sell btc because you need money, or you think price could grow anymore. the only reason people choice to sell is related the high value of the last days, you know when btc hit the top, it's pretty normal the price trends to downgrade a little bit.

In the current scenario most of the people are using bitcoins as commodity /stocks in the market, since its less popular as a currency due to very high value and less facilities to utilise worldwide. Again the bitcoins mining is getting tougher day by day due the built in technology, so the generation of new bitcoins is lesser as compared to previous years.
 So only those persons can sell it whoever have purchased it previously, for any reason.

I think that your question is: Who is controlling the Bitcoin? And who will regulate the development of Blockchain?
Maybe, you are trying to discover the direction of the Blockchain Development and how the mother of this processes will survive in this JUNGLE!

Greed is controlling bitcoin now

When you buy someone it is selling to you  that is for sure as any market.

In your post you assume that BTC it is a bubble which I really disagree.

Why people sell? Because they want to book profits, that is all, same with people who sell silver when it is in top and buy in the dip again to sell it later again.

I use bitcoins to participate in some ICO. I buy some other coins for bitcoin. Soon Christmas holidays. If I do not have enough money, then I will sell some of the crypto currency.
Although I know some mean people. Oh, you know, they will starve, but they will never cash their savings.

There are always impatient people or investors in urgend need of money who sell their assets like stocks or Bitcoins. Even at the price of a loss. There can be many reasons for that (lost job, need money for health care, etc.).
Also, some traders trade short term. They sell and buy several times a day or a week. Others hodl for some time and when the price reaches their expectation, they sell and make a nice profit. And so there are always sellers.

people sell BTC for various reasons: they are traders so sell high and buy low, people who need cash in real life for different things and, yes they exist, people who are going out of crypto world thinking they have gained enough to stop following this project.
I have read many time BTC is just a bubble and soon will explode and end.. well, let them think like this, it's a good stuff for us :)

There are so many people who are selling bitcoin. Because even though no matter how bullish you are on bitcoin, some people are still going to need fiat; probably to pay for bills, to buy random stuff, to pay for some sort of emergency, because they are short on fiat, those stuff. Deal with it, bitcoin isn't used enough(especially in 3rd world countries) that you can live with bitcoin alone. We still currently need fiat to pay most stuff. They are really earning so much in selling bitcoin.

There maybe many reasons for selling the bitcoins,the right word we can say is for spending the bitcoins because direct payment of bitcoin is not available in many place if someone want to spend bitcoin he need to convert it into fiat then spend it as how he wants.But if that person holds more time more fiat he can convert.
Some people are selling their bitcoins due to the price falls they are afraid this maybe the end of bitcoins so they just want to convert into fiat.

There could be many reasons. Suppose some guy invested all he can in BTC at the rate of $6000/BTC and for some urgent reason he needs some money. Now, he sold some of it today at $7730. See, he still made $1730/BTC. So, he sold his BTC at a good profit and next time when he gets some extra bucks, he will buy again.

When any currency reaches $7800 in such a short period,profit booking takes places. Some people decide their targets at the time of making investment. When these targets get achieved they see their investments. People sometimes need fiat cash to settle debts, so they may sell their bitcoins. Some persons do trading in bitcoin currency. So whenever price of bicoin increase as per their expectations they sell it, and whenever the price falls they again buy it. Bitcoin is a volatile currency sometimes its falls sharply, at that time its investors become panic and sell their stock.

It's like a concept of selling shares or stocks in the Philippines Stock Exchange. 
Bitcoins or cryptocurreny fluctuates its price anytime, like stock the concept of selling it is to gain profit by means of transaction. 
Other people use it as investment which provides a high interest of income rather than investing it in companies.

Question like why change your money to food or another need. Traders, margin trading, bought a low sold higher - that's the answer.

People sell bitcoins to trade or to make profit.
Because knowing that cryptocurrency is now exclusive for serious investors, people who have bitcoins get opportunity by selling of it and make profit.
They know that the value of bitcoins is not only in digital, but also in reality.

Are you joking? I do not see serious investors in here. I see naive dreamers hoping to get rich quick.

In reality you can find the people who is earning money in campaigning and the people indeed of money only use to sell the bitcoins.
I see that this normal by seeing the amount money people open a trade with me in the localbitcoins. That value mostly seems like campaign earning only. That is how I am saying that too. Traders will sell the bitcoin when the price bumps up and buy when the value dumps.

People selling bitcoin for their need. They sell bitcoin for money. Everyone wants to be a rich man. So they used to sell it.I also sell bitcoin to spend my daily life comfortably.

I don't believe, can you prove this?

What kind of news are you based, or better arguments, nothing against, but one time I was thinking that it was Bitcoin Miners Manufacturers, but when I was in Shenzhen, I saw that it's really complex to know where is this control. Then I've started to see, that there is a big fight to have this control, specially the big corporations as traditional banks are trying to pushdown the value of Bitcoin, they are trying to invest in another coins or Blockchain Projects to crash the hole system, if you see the comments of these "experts" and look to Ethereum, you will discover the real "darkside" of Ethereum and you will ask yourself how it's possible a strong community as a DASH, just lost the control of the balance of the system. Everything start at the base thing, machine, and the machines are produced in China, but who is taking the profit of this production. And do not forget the big companies of energy sector. I don't know, but one thing, I was completely sure that ETH will close this year around 450-600 USD and BTC will close around 10.000 USD,

If this is a plan, definitely, I don't know, everything start at the production of the Computer Devices, ASIC Machines and etc... the difficulty push this value and the most miners like me lost the coins for cheapest value just to pay the bills. Some guys can invest in some projects, but the decentralized idea is not more real decentralized, the answer is the fork of Bitcoin Cash, who tke the advantage of BCH and why China is completely divided about the future of Cryptocurrency.

I don't know, but anyway, everything about Blockchain is stopped at the margin of traders and credit cards companies. Many coins are going to the conversion, the government, of course, is loosing millions about taxes, and they are trying to say that Bitcoin is something illegal or something from the darkside, etc...

I think this is a big discussion for another post... who is controlling the Bitcoin? - of course with true arguments and no speculations... I think that the answer will not be a coin.  ;)

those who fully understand the system makes some good money in terms of investing with the movements of bitcoin in each timeframe they manage to
gain even a small percentage but with high volume holdings its really an easy money making system for those who really dedicate their time anticipating
the next movements.

Fiat is also a bubble, look at the American debt and every time the federal reserve prints more money to increase the debt ceiling that devalues your purchasing power. At least with bitcoin there will always be a finite supply and I see more and more people wanting to buy and hold bitcoin. Of course there will come a time where the price will stabilize and not be so volatile but remember there is that limited supply and as long as demand for it grows, so will the price for quite some time yet anyway.

Why you want to sell your bitcoins depends upon the reason you are compelled to do so, its different for different people and its really not an issue rather a personal choice..
If you do have a lots of money and still you decide to sell then for sure you are doing things the wrong way...
I think one should never sell bitcoins entirely rather cash out at various times that one might consider apt.
Time encashment of bitcoins.. not full is something that I believe in.
Thus even I do sell my bitcoins.. timely because of personal reasons.

From now onwards no one will sell there bitcoins , From the last One year Bitcoin Price rose by 10X , recently i got a photo of coin capmarket of last year Nov Month

https://i.imgur.com/4HzanEf.png

Check the price of all crypto currency and compare with today prices and Think twice before selling your Btc...

At the current Time 40% bitcoin holders saying they will not sell their btc until price rose to 1 lakh btc+

I absolutely agree that, there are many reasons why they sell their bitcoin. Some people sell their bitcoin to gain income and they will buy when the price low and its like buy low sell high and because of that you could earn much income. Lastly, I suggest you must hold your bitcoin than to sell it.

People sell bitcoin for any number of reasons. While bitcoin has a promising future, it carries some risk. If investors are selling to diversify their assets or convert their bitcoin into tangible items with value, then I can't fault them. Also, some investors may have emergency expenditures that arise, such as family or health problems.

Even people who believe in the coin and its long term project can see opportunities to short and/or sell their coins to get back in a lower price.. It's natural to any exchange based market. Many people end up losing a chunk of their stack doing this without experience though :P

I imagine that those who sell their bitcoins are those who do daytrading

As a seller :
I'm not sell out all of my bitcoin instead I'm sell it partially ,for every $ 1000 increment I sold it for profit or if I want a rush money

As a buyer :
I like to invest bitcoin  every month from my main salary because I believe bitcoin will worth more in the future !

Maybe these people traders or these people have some financial needs that they sell their bitcoin for fiat money. There are a lot of reasons why they do this but if you don't have any nice reason and important reason for selling, just hold it and wait.

if all just keep hold bitcoin will end because it is depend on demand and supply + in some times we need cash

Its not like that everyone believes in the fact that bitcoin will keep rising. There are lot many more people who are panic seller and can’t control themselves when the bitcoin price is going up. It could be that fear which drives them crazy and they go nuts selling their bitcoin at higher rates. But always remember the only person that benefits form the bitcoin is the one who still holds when others are selling it.

Also, it is a currency which is being traded freely so there is always plenty room of people where people are just exchanging the bitcoin for the projects, for personal use and for the fiat as well. Not to forget the supply is still big and we are yet to see bigger prices for the bitcoin and people will keep trading then also.

price of BTC is based on demand, just imagine if nobody would sell their BTC, the price would skyrocket but none will be able to buy, daily trading is helping the coin to stay healthy because that means there are still people willing to support it (besides the gain you can get).

I would think of two categories:

- Miners : they still need to pay for electricity

- People who reached a certain goal (let's say 1M $ and they want to buy an house or invest a part in a less risky business)

because sure bitcoin prices always soar,and all trying to buy,like a word like a market,there is a seller or buyer.

Who cares if people are selling btc now. BTC is still alive after all those forks and misinformation. Don't get into crypto if you cannot handle it's volatility. I believe bitcoin will survive and is here to stay. It will definitely have a place in the future.

Well, I also used my bitcoin to participate in some ICO because I know it will help me to gain much income. I think I will sell my bitcoin and I think I will prefer to hold it than to sell it. If I do not have money I think I will sell my small amount of bitcoin and the rest will be hold.

Day traders, miners and who reached a goal (+XX%) and now the price of BTC is 8,000$

Selling and buying are trading. People can make money from trading that why they sell bitcoin for you. May be the money of selling they will invest in other project or other work that these will make profits for them. This is the same thing like the way you buying, they do investment as you do. However, many people afraid of bitcoin, they thing bitcoin or crypto currency just buble or they haven't interested in bitcoin anymore. Too many reason for a person to selling bitcoin.

Miners sell there bitcoin . Because the don't take any risk for his digital currency.they also sell his coins for his nessesary.Investors also there bitcoin for profit.they think the get there goal.thank you.

Since trading is a profitable way to get more bitcoin as well more fiat, why would someone ignore the fact he can make easy money just by buying and selling bitcoin, this year a lot people had lost money due to bitcoin up and went down anymore, looks like it found support to stay above 6000 dollars. For a small people they sell because they wanna to use those money improving their life, wich is possible with fiat, bitcoin still has a long road till be accepted everywhere. Bitcoin has atracted huge companies wich does invest milions days into the market, soo its normal to see bitcoin being up and down since all those companies and individuals are trying and making more money.

Like the great investor says, Be greedy when others are fearful and be fearful when others are greedy. If you see a sudden surge in the price then there are the newbies who buy Bitcoins in high quantity and on the other hand experienced traders/investors sell it because they think this is non-organic growth and price will fall so they generate capital to invest in the expected dip by selling their Bitcoins at a higher price and during dips, newbies sell their holdings due to panic selling wave and experienced investors are ready to buy it. You can not find similar mentality at any given point, there will be sellers and buyers at $10K level, $50K level or even $500K level.

   If knowledgeable people sell some bitcoins it does not mean the bubble will pop soon. What about exchange services? Exchangers will get profit anyway neither bitcoin will fall or rise, it is the reason. If you are going to USA, for example, and buying dollars for that purpose dont you think dollar will fall because someone sells it? And what about people who are bitcoin millioners, who have bought a lot of bitcoins several years ago? Today is perfect time to get some cash for them, to transfom digitall assets to pure happiness

They sell bitcoin simply because it would give them money out of nowhere. We know that bitcoin is intangible. It cannot be rubbed and taken from your bare hands. Bitcoins is a high profit coin nowadays, it rise fast than the other coins in the market. So people tend to make a profit out of it..

What your saying could be right, there are those who think that getting rid of bitcoin in small amounts are good, at high price of course. But I think there are people who sell their earned or bought bitcoins because they are in need of money. Me for example are in that group of people. I sell my bitcoins when I'm in need of money, and when I need something done. I guess there are more people like me who sell their bitcoins because of need of money. It could be simple as that too.

Allot of merchant are selling bitcoin, even here on bitcointalk users
sell bitcoins for fiat and other currency most trusted place to buy bitcoin will be
localbitcoins I used them my self.

People cash out every now and then. Businesses cash out to pay for their overhead. Hodling is advocated, but that does not mean nobody touches their bitcoins. I myself cash out every now and then to enjoy my earnings.

We  know Bitcoin is intangible. You don't tuch it from your hand. Bitcoin is high profit currency. Nowadays Bitcoin user are  increasing of online Market. I think people sell Bitcoin  to use it from offline transaction. because the be some stores have not  develop online marketing. Some people are selling for trading, making a profit  out of  buying a some stocks and sell  .  I hope, you can get a lot of money

the right answer that i know is people which have bitcoin and they want to make profit from bitcoin. but not all people want to know about bitcoin and they can choose their own choice and stay with what they choose. many people selling their bitcoin without read any news and only buy and sell at random price. this could be dangerous for us because we can buying at the high price and it will makes us difficult to reach our profit.

People who sell their bitcoin is the people that is have a problem or need money. For me no one will sell their bitcoin without a valid reason because all of the people now are want to have bitcoin because they all know that they can earn from it. I think some of us are selling bitcoin because there's an emergency just like me I sell my bitcoin because there's have an emergency problem.

The big problem is that if you have the emergency at the same time as there is a drop in bitcoin you will lose a lot of money - or even worse if we see another problem with mining capacity you cannot sell at all and therefore you cannot get your money for the emergency

People sell their bitcoin to take some profit and if the price is fall they gonna buy more bitcoin. You cannot use bitcoin to buy a daily need in several countries, so you must convert them to local currencies. So yeah I think that is the reason.

Since bitcoin is a digital currency, it can only be used to online transactions as a payment. Many stores haven’t develop their online marketing and bitcoin as a payment system yet so only cash are accepted. For the bitcoin to be in used, some people are selling it.

Sure, you'd definitely lose a chance of selling your bitcoin at a higher price if you sold your bitcoin after a drop. But then again, it's an emergency; it's most likely unpredictable. It's not like you saw it coming or something.

Also, "problem with mining capacity" you meant the blockchain being congested right? If the blockchain is flooded it's not like you're not allowed to sell your bitcoin. It's just that you'd have to use a significantly higher transaction fee to transfer your bitcoin. I'd be happy to transfer hundreds of dollars in btc even if I have to pay like $10 fees, if it's a critical emergency.

If you want to buy bitcoin then you need to contact bitcoin holder or you can contact with a local exchanger they will sale you bitcoin and I like your decision of buying bitcoin because the rate of bitcoin is increasing in future so you can make enough money in future.

Most of the tradres sell the bitcoin. If you need send the requests then you will start the process. Bitcoin prices chage day by day so you will check the bitcoin peocess and pricess information for the future transaction process. If you want pricess information check the market places it useful to for the plan to work and process. You will communicate with traders it will give some information. It help to you.

I am keeping mines till the price is worth selling at, the price right now is really small compared to how old Bitcoin is.

what happens is that we do not all have the same goals, you can have long-term goals and another person wants them for now and if you see the opportunity depends on the investment and the urgency it is launched on the market

those who made a investment at lower level when the bitcoin price was less and when now price got raised those people made a profit selling it has their goal requirement met  . Few people still may hold it because they might be waiting further increase price of bitcoin , few people due panic also may be selling , best is to sell part of the bitcoin which you have made profit and rest keep holding or investing on alt coins.

Wow, so you are just starting a new thread in order to say that you are against those people who are always saying "yeah, yeah, keep buying" Maybe you are right, but that is never going to end, if that didn't happened before, bitcoin would still be at $300 at the moment.

Some people don't want to risk and to cash out. The other sell when the price of bitcoin is high and they buy it when the price is low.  Some of them sell when they have an emergency problem and they need money.

People are selling Bitcoin. Traders are selling Bitcoin. Exchanges are selling Bitcoin. Companies are selling  Bitcoin. Governments are selling Bitcoin. It doesn't matter what the news say or what you hear around you, people are selling Bitcoin and profiting from it big time.

I sold some bitcoin in December. It went up so fast, doubling in the month of December from $10,000 to nearly $20,000, that it was a no-brainer to sell.

When the line on the price graph goes vertical it's a sell-signal.

However, at $10,000 bitcoin is a buy. I'm certainly not selling the rest of my stash, I'm hodling and won't sell till we have another vertical line upwards.

Trust me that there are smart people on both sides.  When you sell your bitcoin (smart man that you are) who buys it?  Some dumbass? OR, could it be someone smarter than you?

You cant really know.

In case of bitcoin or any crypto currencies  it doesn't matter who is the seller or buyer ,it matters about in which price you paid and in which price you are going to sell it. There is no need to worry about cheating and fake currency something like that because bitcoin is safe from every threats like this. In here the agent companies play as an intermediary, they are the seller and  buyer at the same time.

Investors still need bitcoin for other Cryptocurrency transactions,for example if you want to participant in a particular  ICO some my require Bitcoin while others require ETH for you to buy,so investors still need Bitcoin for there business transactions.

I will give an answer to your question. Experienced traders sell bitcoins because of profit. When they sell bitcoin at this price they will buy it again but at the much more cheaper price. They think that Bitcoin will collapse below 5k USD so they making the risk in favour to lose or to gain some profit. Traders watch news, media, blogs and etc. to investigate and analyse possible price of Bitcoin.

well people who are selling may be the one who need urgent money or don`t have patience or have reached their target of income and they want to take off from the trading.

In my opinion, it is certain that the capitalists are the cause of the biggest crisis in the price at this duration time. In fact, they are selling large value of money to buy other currencies, especially those with a weak price and an acceptable value of Market Cap (Such as, Ripple, Lisk, NEM, Stellar, IOTA..).

Furthermore, the capitalists want to fall the price of bitcoin to less than $ 5000  then to buy a large amount of it , because their financial profit will be greater in the future. On the other hand, it is very expected that this currency will jump to great value after some years ( The price may become more than 100K after 2-3 years).

they are unpatient people. they do not understand about cryptocurrency. they scare when seeing the bad news in the market. they will always lose in trading.

On the off chance that you need to purchase bitcoin then you have to contact bitcoin holder or you can contact with a neighborhood trades they will deal you bitcoin and I like your choice of purchasing bitcoin on the grounds that the rate of bitcoin is expanding in future so you can profit in future.

Bitcoin as proposed by its creator Satoshi Nakamoto is something different from what is really on the scenario today. It is supposedly used as digital currency as payment for goods and services. But it turned to be an investment and so its market price is so expensive now because of the increasing demand of the people across the globe. So probably, the ones who are selling bitcoin are also those people who have bitcoins.

Unless the Bitcoin Price is high I won't think of selling  :)

I think I have a bitcoin for a price is high or not.
I think they sell bitcoin only when the price is increased.

OTC bought coins, transferred to the trading platform and continued trading. Different fees will be charged, pay attention to anti-fraud precautions against fraud!

anyone can sell a bitcoin usually sell for a society that meets the needs of day to day but there is also a large investor who wants to sell the bitcoin or small investors and most communities that sell bitcoin to needs and desires.

Maybe the reason is not only in the lack of patience. probably, these guys need fiat money urgently and they are ready to sell their Bitcoins for any price.

As the capitalization increases, the price of bitcoin increases. But as soon as everyone starts to sell it at the same time, the price falls. Few can predict its behavior in the market. I can not say a definite answer

This is a kind of competition, during which all computers of the network are fighting for the right to add the next block with records of bitcoin-transactions to the block.

The one who sells their bitcoin are the people who scares to loose their money and so scared to loose their profit and that is a bad attitude in investing. When you invest you need to be patient and be courageous to everything and what will happen to bitcoin. Don't panic. Just believe!!

Those who are mentally weak or who are feeling the price of Bitcoin may fall sharply, so they will sell to avoid a lot of losses or those who have bought Bitcoin and now they are making a profit before the Bitcoin price. further reduction. They are smart investors or weak psychologists in the face of market volatility

It should also be noted that while companies usually depend on their reputation to remain in business and pay their employees, they do not have access to the same level of awareness when they deal with new consumers.

those people who have not patience and all ready panic they selling btc. i think btc price still now in a correction so that people always afraid  and create a panic sale . its always happens in past only way to stop your loss try hold your btc and wait for a high market.

"For those with a keen eye, gold gleans like a dagger's point."

There is all sort of investors, with all sort of plans. And there are also people who just want some quick money.

I think in this situation everyone concern about btc . because the price is dropping  so people sale btc its one kinds of panic sale to avoid loss. i think its another reason for price drop . when you invest try to invest your money in good coin btc always good to invest but try to save it for future it always profitable for long term hold

good question and it's so hard to answer it clearly ;D ;D ;D ;D

I think most of the market's leveraged speculators are selling. They have a very shallow understanding of Bitcoin. With a short-term profit they will sell their bitcoins

that comment puts the whole thing prospective as long as there are people selling you find people buying its a working economy and if the demand of a bitcoin goes you a lot buyers which will buy it on any price and don't wait for the dumper to dump

unfortunately, bitcoin still haven't reach the point that we can spend just like fiat eventhough i use sometimes like that but you still be needing cash which is still has a huge use cases that cannot be replace yet

With the exchange of each product, the stock of that product is tough. You sell it to me, and I'll sell it to another, this is the way to increase the value of a product. There is nothing to worry about this. When there is a good news about the crypto currency, you see that prices of other currencies including Bitcoin are also increasing..

It is mostly people who are new into the market that are selling. They are new and they do not understand the market so they are scared and are panicking and selling off coins.

I think it because people panic for the down of the price and they don't know what to do and they decide to sell the bitcoin because they don't want to hold for a long time. but I think if he knows what he is doing, then I think if the price increase higher, he could be regret because he sells bitcoin to early and not waiting for a while. but we cannot push them to still hold their bitcoin because they have full control with their bitcoin so they can do whatever they want with their bitcoin.

Mostly people who doesn't know much about bitcoin they are selling bitcoin I think. They may thinking bitcoin price going down and they are scared of. So they are doing it but they don't know these cause bitcoin price down :( day by day

Al these demand and supply is been managed by some kind of operator or you can say professional traders or whales, Where they sell when the amateur trader buys and they buy it when the beginners try to sell them and this process is going on from many years of trading as this is how the market moves. Remember that there is a seller for each and every buyer but that does not mean we trade among ourselves because few sell their day trades and few sell their coins which they might be holding from months or even years. By this way, the market moves and Pro traders sell their coins.

Because They need money or they want another coin :D

I just sell BTC and buy ETH :D

On the off probability that you just got to purchase bitcoin then you have got to contact bitcoin holder otherwise you will contact with a district trades they'll deal you bitcoin and that i like your selection of buying bitcoin on the grounds that the speed of bitcoin is increasing in future thus you'll profit in future.

We cant really blame others if they sell their coin even with the dip in price. We re not the same in status, so they could be needing their money right away and no choice to hold it even if they wanted to. Some could be newbies, who are afraid about it fear they will ultimately lose their money so instead, sell it and get at least half of their capital.

Peoples want to sell bitcoin usually for 2 reasons.
First, they are already gain profit because they bought the coin at the lower price from current.
Second, they sell their coin because they want to cut their loss when the market price falling

im also not selling my bitcoin now because i have trust to it why ? it is just like the past year that bitcoin price in this month is very low and when october or november start the price of bitcoin is very high. thats why we dont need to sell or making panic sell all our bitcoin we need to give our trust to this coin,.

There is no special rules on who ever is selling Bitcoin. There are many reasons for a person to sell their Bitcoin and few are like Easter holidays and panic due to low price. Individual persons selling Bitcoin does not impact the price that much but whales selling their Bitcoin usually impacts the crypto market by a large extend. We cannot assume who is it but the market cap lowered shows that some whales have sell their Bitcoins.

anyone is entitled to the assets they have. sell anytime. even when they want to lose money because of the bitcoin and panic they can sell unless there is a ban. bitcoin is a freedom for people

you know some peoples there is only for speculative, he sold bitcoins with one target, rebuy at lower price

there are many reson to people sell btc now,they can buy btc at hight price but when btc down and down,it is very risk with them,they want avoid risky,don't want lose all,or btc have someone control the price of btc,they want btc down to very low price and then they buy again

In any case, there will be those who buy the currency and there will be those who sell it. You can not just win. Many sell at a lower price so that there is absolutely nothing to lose, and this way they will lose and go into negative

Who sell bitcoin, of course, people who have bitcoin.

there are a lot of lay people here, who feel so shocked by the rise and fall of bitcoin prices. but for those who already know very well about bitcoin movements since a long time ago, they will assume this is a common thing.

The ones that are afraid of holding so as not to run into loss and also the once having one need or the other to settle so they have to sell to enable them settle their challenges.

there is no rule to sell or hold bitcoin.bitcoin is good for long term :)
holder will get reward

Based on my experiences, the right to buy bitcoin is in the month of march to august. Which is for me, in this month the price of bitcoin is slowly dumping down. They usually sell their bitcoin because of some problems, financially that they need to fulfill like for daily needs, bills and personal stuff.

Perhaps bitcoin at such low prices sell short-term traders, or as they are called scalpers. If they bought the BTS at $ 6900 then they try to sell at $ 7100.
In any case, there are very good opportunities to buy Bitcoin cheaper now, in my opinion. Most likely, the price of the BTC will start growing.

I think one of the reasons for selling is investing in other currencies. Young currencies can still yield 10x, but bitcoin never will! Therefore, I see no reason to save it for long!

On the off probability that you simply have to be compelled to purchase bitcoin then you've got to contact bitcoin holder otherwise you will contact with a district trades they're going to deal you bitcoin and that i like your alternative of buying bitcoin on the grounds that the speed of bitcoin is increasing in future thus you'll be able to profit in future.

This may be ending up in good trade because Bitcoins are now quite stable. Not like stable at one point but yes you can say they are stable within a limit.

They aren’t moving up in last three months so we can say there are opportunity window that has been created for the sellers to sell and then buy other altcoins. They are cheaper too right now. So trade Bitcoins for them and earn money.

On the off likelihood that you just must be constrained to buy bitcoin then you must contact bitcoin holder else you will contact with an area exchanges they will give you bitcoin and that I like your option of purchasing bitcoin in light of the fact that the speed of bitcoin is expanding in future subsequently you'll have the capacity to benefit in future.

There are a lot of people who sell because of different reasons. Some panic and sell while others might require money for some emergency.

I think those people are bay another coin at the time sell bitcoin.and another reason is when get a good profit any coin same sell bitcoin. 

Bitcoin wasn't selling from anyone at the start, it was mined from the miners then those miners will sell Bitcoins for people who want to own it or exchanges .
So maybe we can say miners are the first one who sold Bitcoin because they're the one created Bitcoin.

That is why, it is extremely difficult now to find a man, who is going on to sell his Bitcoins. Even if he wants to do it, his price will be very high. Better hold BTC.

Just saying hold your bitcoin. And im sure btc BTC is good for long term...

You are right, but we must still understand that 90% of daily transactions on exchanges are made by bots, so someone constantly sells, someone buys)

Many people are selling bitcoin.Many people are buting bitcoin and then they will wait until such time that the value of the butcoin becomes higher.From that they can gain and earn so much money and get their return on investment.

Smart is the one who sells Bitquin now because it will lower its price again, all false news and the price will be reduced again Housequin can not rise as it was at the end of the previous year are all imaginary dreams

For me, there are two options why they were selling it, one is those people who were very afraid of having bitcoin and no longer have interest on it that is why they were selling it now. Second, those who were engaged in buying and selling bitcoin. They were gaining profit on it by buying it at low price and selling it on a higher price.

I think many need cash and on to localbitcoins they change it to fiat. Either those who sell on exchanges, just play on the difference in the exchange rate.

There are people who live pay check to pay check in this world and when they need some extra cash than they have to sell their bitcoins to be able to make payments. Also everyone has different target prices at which they want to sell their bitcoins. Plus there are some who end up panic selling at the slightest drop they see in the bitcoin price.

Yes bitcoin is good to sell, but with good profits, when the market is raised, good profits can be earned by selling, for example, if a site or trading is sold at a higher price than buying coins, then it is better sold.Good quality profits can be made by selling bitcoin.And those who sell Bitcoin, they are selling well and profit because they profit by selling bitcoin.So bitcoin profiles the sell.

There are many reasons why people sell Bitcoin. Need money, want to divide assets, have a profit, change assets to other coins, cut loss, prices will go down, and others. And the more obvious reason is because of the purchase demand.

many people who sell bitcoin owned by most who sell bitcoin are in need of money or if they already feel a profit then they can attract and sell the bitcoin they milliiki, but hire me there is no harm in storing as much bitcoin as you can for your future.

who is selling bitcoin ? those people who dont have enough knowledge in investing to cryptocurrencies. losing will be the one who trigger people to sell their holdings.

Mostly people selling their are  those who want divert their investment to other coins which they think most profitable than bitcoin.

There is always a supply and demand. someone sells because it is necessary to fix profits, then to buy again, if no one sold bitcoins, and everyone would hold it, the price soared to heaven, on the supply deficit and big demand.

demand and supply become one of the main factors to sell bitcoin. now demand and supply have a great effect on bitcoin prices. so I think that's the main factor to make as a determinant to sell

If someone's looking to pay the bills, it may be logical to take out, say, a month's worth of necessities," Josiah Hernandez, chief strategy officer of the bitcoin ATM network Coinsource, told Business Insider. Someone who needs the money shouldn't feel bad about selling 30% to 50% of their bitcoin, he said, although they should still keep at least half invested. That way, they won't be filled with regret years down the line should bitcoin's value continue to surge.

anyone can sell Bitcoin if he has Bitcoin and the reason why they sell it no one knows because everyone has a different mind and also the privacy of the seller does not need to know. can be because there is a need and see the price of Bitcoin up or down so they sell it.

Bitcoin has no central point, bitcoin is a peer to peer smart contract transaction that many investment are into, secondly Bitcoin has been seriously circulating round the world which, can not be predicted the next movement and way about. base on current activities of bitcoin, it can be used for short range investment, and many people trade on bitcoin from one country to another, which can not be trace who is selling, even the buyer still unknown

bitcoin is a crypto currency, which the seller can not be see one and one, at any place, which attract buyers from one point to another country joined together by online transaction and payment are made at online, bitcoin is a virtual money that is accepted and every community are known about bitcoin values and many 90% trader of online are also involved.

Actually many people really tend to sell their Bitcoin for their own reasonable situations that mostly apply the urgent need of money source that maybe a desperate move can only done by means of selling their holdings. When we are buying Bitcoin, the main purpose why we buy is basically to obtain more than what we currently have and not focusing on into whom have we bought it from because we have only trusted a certain trading site where we buy or sell our crypto which is not just Bitcoin but can also be altcoins.

A lot's of people selling his bitcoin . Because they think bitcoin can't move to high price again . I think they fulish so.they don't belive in bitcoin or they don't know fully bitcoin. I think also they face a big kind of loss and they can't make profite from there investment.we should hold our coin for get profite from our investment.

if people want to invest certainly have enough knowledge in processing bitcoin. loss of bitcoin is only for careless and unwary people. everyone must have a choice of whether the person will sell it or accommodate it first, and we can not change that choice.

Although people sell Bitcoins in response to one or two scam news they may have stumbled to, a vast number of investors also sell just for the singular reason of making profit, after which they go back to buy at a lower price.

On the off chance that you simply} just should be affected to shop for bitcoin then you want to contact bitcoin holder else you'll contact with a vicinity exchanges they'll provide you with bitcoin which i prefer your choice of buying bitcoin in lightweight of the very fact that the speed of bitcoin is increasing in future after you'll need the capability to profit in future.

I see this is the question of the new investors in this market. There are many ways you can own a bitcoin. I think you should learn more before asking such a question.

I remember I am selling my bitcoin in the last 2 weeks ago because I need money to buy food and fill my daily needs but I still hold the rest of my bitcoin in my wallet. I withdraw my bitcoin that in the exchanges and it's my profit so far and I glad that with the money, I can buy something for my family. but I still waiting for the highest price in bitcoin so I can sell it again to make another profit.

Indeed to make the prediction of bitcoin prices every time is quite complicated so that sometimes makes traders become frustrated when prices are still declining.However,if a trader is able to withhold anger,maybe to create income and give a new injection to continue investing.

I do not know about your question. But I guess you need to know about the contract bitcoin distribution from the transaction site to the dump or all business people, investors and users can sell their bitcoin if it reaches the goal of the profit they have set before.

I dont completely agree with your point there is different kind of trader there is short term , Intraday , Long term holder . Short term seller sell coins once they find the target price . Intraday trader based on market move trade the coin and they will sell within the day . Final long term holder your talking about them they are actually not selling to you .

Many peoples or different kind of trader because the bitcoin price is high day to day. the traders buying bitcoins and store in her blockchain and when the price goes high he is sell the bitcoins.

Currently the users who were in need and the users who has been holding with the price target to reach the $9000 market value tend to sell their bitcoin. Another thing, as the market is completely unpredictable there are people who sell on panic fearing to hold as the price might fall in unexpected time period.

so you're saying basically that those knowledgable ones recognize bitcoin as bubble and less intelligent hold. Well, very interesting statement, but I definitely do not agree. Price will go further than to $20k

According to me the people who are very impatience and cannot tolerate the  low bitcoin market value are the one who are selling their coins.There is no fun in selling your coins at such a low rate.I don't understand that why people are not accepting that it is the nature of bitcoin.Such changes in the prices are very common.So why to panic.Have faith in bitcoin.Market value is increasing day by day.Try to hold atleast for more days and then sell your coins.Selling all coins in lump sum amount is basically a wrong decision.Try to understand again that this is only contributing in dumping of bitcoin.

Two kind of people are selling bitcoin if it is on a dip, of course, newbies who do not want to run in a loss and if it is on a surge, they are people who already reaping the rewards of their patient and effort from buying in dip.

lots of bitcoin sell on exchanger sites like bittrex poloniex yobit and so on but if i ask where to buy a bitcoin for me in poloniex because the fee is less expensive than other exchanger sites but if you have you know you are selling bitcoin when you meet up for no fee if the exchanger site buys a bitcoin

there are a lot of people who are less patient and able to accept a bitcoin price reduction, and they would not be happy to sell their bitcoin when the price drops, so we should be more patient and better understanding about bitcoin, the drop in bitcoin gives us the chance to buy it again, and to save it and sell it when the price will rise again.

now you ask who buy btc? many people selling when btc reach 6800 usd and eth reach 400 usd and now btc 9000 usd and eth ~700 usd,who buy? market change too fast,i don;t know it is too dangerous in the crypto market,seem the limit of loss and win so thin

Arguably the simplest and most 'automated' way to turn your Bitcoin into hard cash is through an exchange platform. They act as a middle-man for the famously decentralized cryptocurrency, by selling your Bitcoin for you

It seems very unreasonable to sell bitcoin when prices have fallen so much. If you want to make money you need to buy coin at low price and sell it at high price.
This is the basis of the entire market.
You need to follow it to make money.

I know that bitcoin co-founder has sold bitcoin. He sold his entire Bitcoin number and switched to Bitcoin cash, "Oldenburg said, referring to the high price of Bitcoin. In fact, Bitcoin prices seem to double every three months. Ars Technica confirmed that the transaction fee was up to $ 26 per purchase / sale recently.

The answer is simple. They are daily traders. They do the buying and selling activities with a relatively short time. They are not HODL types. They seek profit at every opportunity. If the answer is not, then they are people who are in need of money. They'll sell it no matter what the price. They're pressed and need money. You might do something like your parents get sick, and have to do surgery. You must know the cost of the surgery, doesn't it?

Indeed to swap assets we need exchangers. there are already supports fliat and some are just for trading. but now there are many exchangers that support the withdrawal to the bank

I believe Bitcoin is a sensation.. a highly promoted products with 150B market cap (where and what i read (https://citicoins.com/)). .. so do you ever think who is buying them before you folks? Must be few.  :P

There are many people who did not know about bitcoin features. Then they sold it. Moreover, those who sell BTC want money through it. And those who are still less knowledgeable about the online digital currency, they are selling it. They want to make money by selling Bitcoin and want to get profits.

Thanks.  :) :)

Not sell now, I think this is very losing time.I bought bitcoin when have price 15k up.so want to make profit. Is the better think to hold ...

The bitcoin sellers are the ones who bought it and they have this money in their hands, or the bucks for the ico programs and now they want to sell it for the dollars. and have many people sellin bitcoin.

The price reached ath soon but people hodl for profit, we have now new price all high since before one week and people now buying again.

In trading that if no one sells their assets at the current offered price, the buyer has no choice but to increase their offer until the seller has matched the offered price, the same can happen when the current price decreases power will now be in the buyer hand because they are the ones that determine the price they want to buy your offload stock. It could be anyone for any reason, and you just really think that everyone is desperate, that's where your argument becomes flawed. It seems almost everything to you is a bubble instead.

i think people who sell bitcoin in a low price are people who need money for emergency because if its not an emergency i think bitcoin is good for investment, and i think it will be more good if you buy in low price and save it until the high price

One usually suspects, why market is falling even if everyone supports Bitcoin. There is a simple reason behind that most of the users will try to sell at as high price as they can, so that when bitcoin is low they can jump again and earn some bitcoin. This seems a way to earn free bitcoin from day trading but I think it is very hard and until you don't have proper knowledge on interpreting graphs and market move. Don't enter this game or you will have to face great loss on your way.

we can ask the opinion of mastah or seniors about when to buy bitcoin, but that does not mean they give us advice wrongly, they might give us advice to buy when bitcoin price goes down and we buy to hold it, and sell when bitcoin price rising, bitcoin not only can go up, of course also can decrease the price, so we should be able to have our own initiative when the right time to buy and when the right time for us to sell it.

yes if you do not experience an urgent need ya may be stored first because the state of bitcoin is not improving. need a process also to wait for the price to start rising.

Why is it the end of bitcoin investment? I don't get it when you say knowledgeable people are slowly getting rid of their bitcoin. I am new in this cryptocurrency yet I think it is not the end for bitcoin. There are many possibilities that it will still grow and thinking also that there are many altcoins now are doing good also that are connected with bitcoin. Meaning to say that bitcoin has relatively established by these altcoins. Whatever you think of bitcoin falldown but still the altcoins that are being introduced nowadays within every community around the world makes bitcoin getting stronger and stronger. So I guess you cannot call a knowledgeable people selling bitcoin where in fact bitcoin has established already.

Every person has different problems and face different situation, but some of the factors that usually happen to others are lack of financial support so they sell their bitcoin to fulfil their needs, another factor is they are afraid that bitcoin will continuously fall down so that they will panicly sell their bitcoin.

many selling bitcoin if you buy bitcoin better than exchanger sites you buy bitcoin with less fee like poloniex legit poloniex can you buy there bitcoin more expensive you can charge or if you know someone selling bitcoin legit sellers you can buy there

Buying Bitcoin depends on personality, while some buys to hold for future trading some buys to invest and some buy to sell immediately for a small percentage increase in price which are mostly refer to Arbitrage trading.

So all depends on your intentions of buying Bitcoin.

The time you sell it when the price of it is high when you compared to the price of it when you buy it. That's the way to earn more profit to it. I think other sell it because there's an emergency or they sell it because the price of bitcoin is increase.

The thing here is not that all people who are selling thinks btc as bubble but some want to leave this volatile market by cashing out their satisfactory profits and some are in dire need of cash to finance their regualr or important needs even if they know hodling will give them more profits in long term but they can't wait for that time to come.So its depend upon the current situation of person selling coins on listed excahnge.But ignorging these facts i will say btc will grow far enough giving away profits to hodlers.

I do not understand why to sell the cue ball when its price sooner or later will grow - well, if there is an emergency, you just need to buy another kripto coin for it

because they simply need money  ;D ;D ;D

exactly, they need money for emergency so they have to sell it to exchange and withdraw. The main reason is not because they are afraid that the BTC will drop again... I think so..

when they decide to sell, there are 2 main reasons. the first because they panic sell, the second they must be in need of money

Your question is why people sell their bitcoin,theres a lot of reason to sell it ,like if you need to use or an emergency and the other is they sell their bitcoin because they gain some profit for their investment.

I know information about co-founder bitcoin. Co-founder of bitcoin.com does not believe that this digital currency will become the everyday currency that people expect. He insisted his company wanted to move away from Bitcoin, even stopping its services to focus on Bitcoin cash - a digital divide that was split from Bitcoin in August and just overtook Ethereum to become Bitcoin. It is the world's second largest digital currency.

Whats the purpose of the bitcoin if you will not sell it? What if the price of the bitcoin will goes high are you still holding it or you are one of them who sell their Bitcoin. The supply and demand are based on the people who are selling their bitcoin and some of them buying bitcoin for their investment.

if all just keep hold bitcoin will end because it is depend on demand and supply + in some times we need cash

are you serious ? You can not judge something just like that. If you look up the book order you will find there is whales order as depth chart. If you want to buy coins, some one will ready to put the sell order first, it will depends how much the price  you will order. If you are as maker, it must be someone put the order because he already knew the next moved of bitcoin or maybe someone really have to sell his bitcoin because sudden needs, who knows.

If they already feel the benefits then they can attract and sell their bitcoin milliiki, but hiring me does no harm in storing as many bitcoins as you can for your future. Many people who sell bitcoins are owned by most who sell bitcoins that need money

I think only those person who get panic of the current speculation that bitcoin "will crash again and the value will turn into zero" are afraid who wan't to sell their bitcoin.

maybe because some peoples short of money and need quick cash.
if you investing on something, and you suddenly need a money for urgent need, you will sell what you've got.

Bitcoin has changed the lives of many people on this planet, for better or for worse. For those who’ve managed to strike fortunate notes with BTC, the coin has allowed them to improve their lives–buying homes, paying off debts, or just plain old gettin’ rich.

unfortunately, bitcoin still haven't reach the point that we can spend just like fiat eventhough i use sometimes like that but you still be needing cash which is still has a huge use cases that cannot be replace yet

There are always impatient people or investors in urgend need of money who sell their assets like stocks or Bitcoins. Even at the price of a loss. There can be many reasons for that (lost job, need money for health care, etc.).

Bitcoin as proposed by its maker Satoshi Nakamoto is something other than what's expected from what is truly on the situation today, it is probably utilized as computerized cash as installment for merchandise and ventures. In any case, it swung to be a speculation thus its market cost is so costly now as a result of the expanding interest of the general population over the globe.

of course selling, because some peoples need money. maybe they already hold for a long term.
and now, it is time to sell the coins to earn more money because holding for long.

I know information about co-founder bitcoin. Co-founder of bitcoin.com does not believe that this digital currency will become the everyday currency that people expect. He insisted his company wanted to move away from Bitcoin.

If you don't sell your coins, then how you are going to profit out of it? I am currently holding around BTC2.50 and in the past I have sold almost the same quantity of coins. I have made a decision to hold a part of my stash for the long term. The rest is marked for regular profit booking.

You sell Bitcoin to use it from offline transactions because some stores have not yet developed online marketing. There are people who sell, gain from buying some stocks and selling them for the purpose of making more money. Commodities or stocks in the market, as it is less popular as a currency because of its very high value and less facilities for worldwide use.

The bitcoins mining is getting tougher day by day due the built in technology so the generation of new bitcoins is lesser as compared to previous years.Only those persons can sell it whoever have purchased it.The people sell the bitcoin for profit. After which they will buy below their price sell then sell again.The same as people sell gold in the real world but this is in the world of cryptocurency.

buyers have no choice but to increase their offer until the seller has matched the offered price, the same thing can happen when the present price is less power will now be in the hands of the buyer because they are the ones that determine the price they want to buy your offload stock.

Who cares if people are selling btc now. BTC is still alive after all those forks and misinformation. Don't get into crypto if you cannot handle it's volatility. I believe bitcoin will survive and is here to stay.

People who thinks that it's the right time to sell their bitcoin because of the price that's rising drastically are those people who are happy right now. But those people who tend to hold their bitcoin even if the price is already high, then they are the more happier people when bitcoin reach its peak price.

The one who bought it cheaper and decided that it's time to earn real money, and not just look at the numbers on the monitor screen.

People are selling bitcoin because they bought a lower price and because the investor is profitable they  are selling

I can never sell my bitcoin now. Because it will soon be full moon. Then i will be more profitable.

I am selling bitcoin  :D but I hodl some of it as well. Also, I buyback sometimes. It is trading you should sell times and I don't trust forum because I think that most people sell and buyback. Bitcoin volume explains everything.

That's not very logical. Every bitcoin is bought and sold again at a certain moment. When people say they are holding I dont think they are referring about holding it forever until the price reaches 1 million dollars. They are holding for a few months, maybe a few year but eventually they will sell their bitcoin to another person wich is going to sell it further after some time and so on.

what happens is that we do not all have the same goals, you can have long-term goals and another person wants them for now and if you see the opportunity depends on the investment and the urgency it is launched on the market

People sell Bitcoin because they want to exchange to USD (dollar), we know that they need money for fee them life.. So, if people have money, they will invest to Bitcoin again.. And then sell again if need money..

but today bitcoin increases and increases whether you are sure to worry about it this year, bitcoin whenever it can become bubbles and explode we have to wait and be patient.

Individuals and exchange sites sells bitcoin. There are several ways that a person can exchange for bitcoin and other cyptocurremcies. Some of the availbale once are Bittres, Binance, HitBtc and so on.

Many people have thrown their money out of the window just because they do not know the Digital Currency. There are many ways to play virtual currency that are introduced online, but there is no way to make money. Therefore, you should be careful of your decisions. Those who only play the trend are selling their coin.  ;)

for me bitcoin is a peer to peer smart contract transaction that many investment are into, at any place, which attract buyers from one point to another country joined together by online transaction and payment are made at online,can't make profite from there investment.we should hold our coin for get profite from our investment.

I think only those people who get panic of their investment are selling their bitcoin because they are afraid to lost their money, so they sell and invest their money to other crypto that they think more profitable.

Many BTC sellers, you can go to Binance Exchange or other exchange. You should have a lot of guides on youtube trading floors that are very detailed.

everyone can selling bitcoin,but for most of people  whole future is riding on this bitcoin.because they regular riders spend their time and money on bitcoin.they try to buy bitcoin instead of selling.

In my opinion, it is a currency that is like gold, there must be trading, buying and selling. If we ask the question, why are people selling gold, then that is the right answer for why people sell bitcoin. So the bitcoin trade has a thousand reasons to explain.

There are two sides to the above argument. One: The people selling may be in need of cash for personal use or may want to divest their holdings into another venture (Either more profitable or less risky or both) in order to secure some form of financial security.
Two: The people selling may be bitcoin miners who have mined some bitcoins and wish to sell same to meet obligations as in One above. Either way the bitcoin been sold may have a 30% chance of been bought back so it will not be wise to entirely conclude in the manner of the argument.

Some people already made huge amount of money with Bitcoin, and prefer cash out rather then take the risk to hold it longer. Also some people are here just for quick money, and once they reached their goals, they will sell it.

Well i don't care about them. Panic or not, i'm holding for broke. Probably a year or two. I know there will be pumps and dumps along the way and the urge to sell may sometimes be great but i've already conditioned my mind that a long term hold would be more profitable.

Imagine a situation where no one wants to sell their Bitcoin. What happens? Because the supply is low and demand is high, the price of bitcoin rises. Soon enough, the price will be high enough that many people who bought bitcoins when it was cheaper will decide to sell and make money off of it. Sooner or later, it could happen that too many people are now trying to sell off their bitcoins seeing this increase in price, thereby bringing the price of bitcoin back down again. That’s when you buy it.

maybe people who sell bitcoin is people who need the emergency money thats makes them to sell their bitocin (investment) into a money to get money, i think if they are an investor they wouldn't sell it before they reach their prediciton price, or it can be the 2nd reason they sell their bitcoin because they already reach the prediction price

You must know that a lot of people trade with the favorite strategy of buying low and selling high. The people that must be selling bitcoins are are the people that maybe bought it a low price and want to sell it a high price now. Some sellers too sell as part of their portfolio diversification, they sell to buy other alternative currency.

Due to banning of some sites in our country, I've decided to sell all my investment because I'm scared that all sites who have connection to crypto currencies were banned. I know it is impossible to happen but for assurance of my profit and income I do it, but if I cannot encountered again of banning of sites I will put back my investment into crypto currency community.

Actually I have a bitcoin but I don't sell it right now because the value of bitcoin and all altcoin will back to decreasing it's value again.

What do you mean with "the value of bitcoin and all altcoin will back to decreasing it's value again" As far as I can see, the price of the coins are all going back and is increasing , as it was last year since bitcoin is trying to surpass its resistance level.Or are you referring to the decreasing value of bitcoin after surpassing its resistance level? Your statement is confusing.

As for the selling of bitcoin,there are so many reasons behind it such as panic sell during FUD's, cashing out due to high price or sudden cashing out for emergencies. No matter what reason behind it, its the holder's decision.

uncertain, they are knowledgeable also have ambitions, when they sell, must have got a profit. among them there must be a desperate and sell their bitcoin. many think this is just a bubble. yes this bubble, but it looks. because bitcoin will only be destroyed if any best coins appear and replace them. I believe, those who sell bitcoin at the beginning must have got a big profit.

It is a peer to peer system you buy from someone and someone sell back to you and all these transactions goes with profit to the sellers to the sellers.

Is not a fact. Perhaps a trader fixes profits and sells bitcoin, then to buy bitcoin at a cheaper price. Or maybe it's whales, play their games on the market and sell Bitcoin.
then they will buy bitcoin and also at a cheaper price.

There are countless reasons why people sell their bitcoins, you do not necessarily have to be a newbie to sell them, everyone in this forum at some point were newbie and took unreasonable decisions.

Various reasons push its sale: Economic emergencies, basic needs to be met, diversification of investments, tastes, luxuries, etc...

Otherwise, what function would bitcoin have if no utility is granted?

Basically, we try our luck which we invest a huge amount of bitcoin. In fact it was already proven how bitcoin really gives benefit to each and everyone of us here in bitcoin community. If you want to invest try to find those trading sites as you wish to buy those sites they sell a huge volume of bitcoin. Soon in the future since there are a lot of people invest a dominant crypto currency definitely it can have a huge amount of profit in the future.

Thats right,most especially in some countries who have less bitcoin merchants.Bitcoin holders sell out their bitcoins if they need to convert to fiat for different purposes and it doesn't mean they are selling because they get rid of bitcoins existence.Instead it is a very profitable digital currency of all time.

In this type of currency, we can never know into whom we have bought the Bitcoins we have purchased because anyone or anything here seems to be anonymous to protect each others identity. The reason why people sell their Bitcoins is because of their own deciding capability which seems to be depending into the situation wherein they surely sell it for instant money that maybe will be used for emeregency purposes, or just to cut off their losses and avoid furthermore dump into their account.

buy bitcoin during the price is in the dip are good profits they can earn for long term hold, who selling the bitcoin for  their investment, people buy and sell bitcoin in online exchange market specially people working in day trade buy and  sell bitcoin or altcoins.
also people selling their bitcoin even if can't get high profits because they needs to use it for their expenses.

of course, Bitcoin investors who make a sale Bitcoin, the perpetrators of trading in the exchanger is including investors.
any person who owns Bitcoin in large or small quantities and trades Bitcoin in large or small quantities are called investors.

 There are different reasons as why someone might sell BTC, maybe for personal needs or they just have too much and would like to cash in on a few .selling is part of the game, the bad thing is panic sales that will encourage dumping of BTC to the market Making its flow too much  hence negatively affecting its value. cryptocurrency is an investment just like any other theefore making returns from sales is a norm , just do it with caution and always remember to keep some.

This can be the anyone person also for any reason.

I guess they are selling because they need the money because if they don't why would they bother selling it at the first place or maybe they have reached their desired profit that is why they decided to sell it. But we all have our own reason why we sell our coin and I think it really doesn't matter.

People sell bitcoins simply because they need to. They need to pay for their bills and why would you hold your money if you have a decent sum to sell? They need to buy stuffs they need or emergencies would make you decide to sell your coins. And for most short time investors, they are selling when they see they already have a profit, without people selling and buying the price will be stagnant so this is a natural thing and this is not bad.

Each person decides when to sell and buy bitcoins. Someone really needs money and they sell, but someone saw in this perspective and decided to buy. Here everything is individual.

There are different reasons as why someone might sell BTC, maybe for personal needs or they just have too much and would like to cash in on a few .selling is part of the game, the bad thing is panic sales that will encourage dumping of BTC  the market. Making its flow too much  hence negatively affecting its value

I strongly beleive that Bitcoin has the practical purpose. There is no use of it if you keep it in the wallet endlessly.
In some moment you have to sell it and exchange it for fiat or use it for direct payments.
When is the moment for selling each user decides for himself depending on the needs.
It's good to have certain sum of Bitcoin as a saving but Bitcoin is created to be actively used.

I sell bitcoin. I hate to do it, of course, but it's the economy of how my business works. We mostly get paid in BTC or other crypto. We also have a multi-petahash mining op. These support our blockchain software development. So most months I need to sell BTC to cover rent, salaries, insurance, taxes, electricity, etc. It's a great month when I can sell less BTC than I've made, but we're still early in development cycles for most of our tools.

I hate selling BTC but this allows us to pay for professional development without resorting to ICOs (which I think are often-not always-quite scammy). In the long run, I think this is a worthwhile tradeoff.

One thing i know for sure, People tend to sell their bitcoins because they need money, or they want somebody will also feel how they feel in trading crypto,s. In my personal experience, i want to buy bitcoin for the sake that I also want to earn profit.
and to live comfortably through fast and efficient transaction.

Exactly. I feel like people who only HODL but never buy and sell in BTC or alts are sort of tourists & speculators. If you really believe in the power of crypto then use it to build a better, cooler world.

That said, I eagerly await the day when converting crypto to fiat seems quaint and archaic.

Too early to give such a conclusion. Maybe those who sell bitcoin are in need of money for an urgent need. After all if we do not sell it from where we will get a profit, from where we can enjoy the results? I think those who sell are someone who knows when it's time to buy and sell and that does not mean they will get rid of it, there will be time to buy again.

the present situation the majority of the general population are utilizing bitcoins as ware/stocks in the market, since its less well known as a money because of high esteem and less offices to use around the world. Again the bitcoins mining is getting harder step by step due the inherent innovation, so the age of new bitcoins is lesser when contrasted with earlier years. So just those people can offer it whoever have bought it beforehand, for any reason.

yes because even though no matter how bullish you are on bitcoin, some people are still going to need fiat; probably to pay for bills, to buy random stuff, to pay for some sort of emergency, because they are short on fiat, those stuff. Deal with it, bitcoin isn't used enough(especially in 3rd world countries) that you can live with bitcoin alone and Supply and demand is not the relevant question. The relevant part is WHO is buying and selling. And when you see the amateur-investors, which this forum is filled with, taking the buy side in a naive vision that Bitcoin can only go up - and the clever larger investors slowly selling their Bitcoin -

lots of bitcoin sell on exchanger sites like bittrex poloniex yobit and so on but if i ask where to buy a bitcoin for me in poloniex because the fee is less expensive than other exchanger sites but if you have you know you are selling bitcoin when you meet up for no fee if the exchanger site buys a bitcoin

You should be careful from who you buy and where you buy bitcoin from. I say this just so you don't get entangled with the wrong fellows and loose your money in the process. There are renowned sites you can buy bitcoin from that are genuine and legit.

I prefer this to buying from persons directly.

Those who are selling bitcoins are the people who doesn't have guts to hold bitcoin for long term and they don't believe in the potential of bitcoin so that is the reason for them to sell because they think that short term is the best to make profits but they didn't realize the chance of making tons of profit if they will just have patience and wait for the price to get on the top.

Many early investors, and those who bought BTC at low prices, would surely sell BTC in the face of great interest.

Bitcoin has changed the lives of many people on this planet, for better or for worse. For those who’ve managed to strike fortunate notes with BTC, the coin has allowed them to improve their lives–buying homes, paying off debts, or just plain old gettin’ rich.

People can make money from trading that why they sell bitcoin for you. May be the money of selling they will invest in other project or other work that these will make profits for them. This is the same thing like the way you buying, they do investment as you do. However, many people afraid of bitcoin, they thing bitcoin or crypto currency just buble or they haven't interested in bitcoin anymore.

People are selling bitcoin for them to gain the money they want to earn.  They spend their time to buy and hold it and if they think the time they are in is the best time for them to sell it then they will sell it. That is basically the answer for this question. Also,  some of the panicked investors sell bitcoin even though it is not the right time to sell bitcoin because of lack of patience.

peoples have various reasons to sell their coins. maybe they need money urgent for their credit card or anything could be possible.
they will not sell their coin if they get no profit of it except they urgently need it.

There are two types of people who sell Bitcoin, the first type, they are alarmists who do not control their emotions in a situation where their deposit at the slightest price change begins to decrease. The second type of people - these are experienced traders who skillfully use the principle ..... "sell at highs, buy at minimums" .... I do not want to be clever, but What to buy - you have to sell. And vice versa. It's like breathing in and exhalation.

I don’t think so that bitcoin bubble will burst because bitcoin is very sustainable crypto currency and its existence is life long and what I think is bitcoin miners store their mined bitcoins in special kind of wallets from where people buy and sell their bitcoins and I don’t think that people who are slowly getting rid of their bitcoin are the wisest one because there are many wise economists who predicted that in the end of the year the valuation will hike up to $20000 and I strongly believe in them and will hold my bitcoins for future.

Some people are panic selling when the price is favorable to sell so you cannot also blame them because that is what it means to make a profit in bitcoin. Some people also have different reasons like for emergency purposes so we must all understand each other. However my advice to those who sell just for no reason is to please HOLD as long as you can for prices to increase further.

I think bitcoin is not enough to use (especially in 3rd world countries) that you can live with bitcoin alone. Currently we still need money to pay most of the goods.
Because although no matter how bullish you are in bitcoin, some people still need fiat; perhaps to pay bills, to buy random items, to pay for some kind of emergency, because they lack fiat, the stuff.

Some sellers are selling for profit, these are early holders but the majority are newbies who do not want to see that they are losing their investment so they sell their coins not knowing that this is not going to last and there will always correction and bull trend coming eventually.

until now I still hold my bitcoin and have no intention to sell it gan. the reason I hold my bitcoin.
the price to be more up again.
and I do not really need money for my daily needs .

It does not mean that when bitcoin price drop and all holders will hold it too!, exchange and trading market are always open for market trading that anyone can buy bitcoin at any time.

You sell it to me, and I'll sell it to another, this is the way to increase the value of a product.

I don't think that many people are selling bitcoin, most of the people have been holding, that's why the price is soaring.

People who made a lot of money in the early days have been selling their BTC. Several times the profits, the benefits are very generous.

Bitcoin is a crypto currency that is form in a digital way on peer to peer smart contract on blockchain technology in ecosystem. where no central point of selling of Bitcoin.

It may be those who bought Bitcoin a long time ago or investors who want to make profits from short-term trading.
In general, the majority of investor selling does not have a significant impact on the Bitcoin market.
However, the sale of influential shareholders or companies that could affect the market will affect the price.

when we heard about people that selling their bitcoin it sounds silly right? but we need to find the reason why they sell their bitcoin, we knwo that hold bitcoin can give us the profit, but when we need emergency money it will be the last choiches that selling bitcoin for getting that emergency money, so why people selling their bitcoin? i think there are that need an emergency moneys

who are selling bitcoin?

There are many reasons why people sell Bitcoins, I think the main reasons are buying something because today for Bitcoin I can not buy a salute all.

some of investors are dissapointed with bitcoin price so they sell it and invest their money into other assets not so risky as bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Some investments have short periods of time. May be the person sells it because they really need the money back because of urgent reasons. Or they had bought it years before when the price was low and only wants to earn money. They are selling it may be because they also want others to experience it and let the industry to grow more.

I think Dealing with it, bitcoin is not enough to use (especially in 3rd world countries) you can live with bitcoin only. Currently we still need money to pay most of the goods.
Because although no matter how bullish you are in bitcoin, some people still need fiat; perhaps to pay bills, to buy random items, to pay for some kind of emergency, because they lack fiat, the stuff.

The person who will choose to sell Bitcoin is the person who badly needs money. Also, the person who is impatient and do not like the fact of wait will choose to sell their Bitcoin immediately.

The market is a living organism in which there is supply and demand for each currency. There are traders who make money on this.

The author of the topic probably just does not represent what amounts of funds are in the cryptocurrency market and how many people simultaneously use bitcoins, sell and buy them. 8)

it seems there is no harm if they sell the bitcoin they have because if the bitcoin owners are buying when the price is cheap then he sells bitcoin to make a profit then it does not matter.

There are another kind of people will sell their Bitcoin also, they're sharks and whales when they're trying to dumps the price of Bitcoin and make it bottom till a good moment for buying back all of those Bitcoin with a cheaper price.

Maybe they selling of there bitcoin because the bitcoin was in a high price i think, And someone also they sell of bitcoin maybe also to buy another coins just like altcoins we know in this year it have so many altcoins for now are growing faster the price of it.

Of course when you buy bitcoin, someone is selling for you. But they selling with a higher price than they bought.
So they still get profit from selling theie coins to you

I do not understand why to sell the cue ball when its price sooner or later will grow - well, if there is an emergency, you just need to buy another kripto coin for it

whose name is also business and practically trading, there must be people who sell and buy, they would have considered the reason with their respective analysis, so why you dizzy? Is not it all a natural thing, about the results that they can make a profit or loss and whether or not their fiction is something they should accept as a result

The normal reason of selling bitcoin was to avoid the loses. Trade buy and sell can also be a reason by some but in majority there are panic moment in the heart of the supporters.

You sell Bitcoin to use it from offline transactions because some stores have not yet developed online marketing. Some sell to trade, get a profit from buying some stocks and sell them for the purpose of making more money. But not everyone has the same mindset and some are selling now because maybe the price of Bitcoin at $ 8000 is their target price instead.

I believe Bitcoin is a sensation.. a highly promoted products with 150B market cap (where and what i read). .. so do you ever think who is buying them before you folks? Must be few

here are a lot of people who suggest to invest by buying bitcoin for long-term storage, but that does not mean they have lied or cheated us, every second there will be someone who will sell and buy bitcoin, but the person selling bitcoin does not mean the person who tells us to buy it, they just suggest us to buy it and hold it, people suggest us to buy bitcoin to keep it for a long time, because people believe that bitcoin will go up higher, so you want to buy or not up to you, people just suggest it with what they believe.

the reasons why people sell bitcoin is mass. I don't think people get rid of him, they probably just need the money.

the business people who use online selling . they use bitcoin that can be lesser the expenses so many people who are investing online and trough this site that they are continue to use through selling .

I would not think of anything. So simple, those who sell bitcoin are people who are in need of money. After all, if we do not sell and just buy and hold it, where we can enjoy the benefits?

in my opinion, if the user just buys then holds it and without selling it, it is a waste of time. What benefits will they get? The process of buying and selling bitcoin is naturally exists. Do not then judge that those who sell are those who are slowly getting rid of their Bitcoin. It does not make sense to me.

Mostly because they want to diversify their investments. I don't think these people would just sellout their bitcoins just because the bubble is bursting. Clearly, you generalize the public's thinking capability. Obviously, people aren't selling to bail out of the bubble.

many people selling their bitcoin if the price increase because they want to make a profit and they can buy again if the price is down. with the volatility of the price now, they can expect to make a profit by buying and selling the bitcoin and I am sure that if they can analyze, they can find a good price to buy and decide a good price to sell later. we can take this as our chance to make more money but we still are careful to not buy at the high price.

It is mostly people who are new into the market & whales that are selling. newbies are new & they get panic with little crash so they are scared and are panicking and selling off coins.

As a seller :
I'm not sell out all of my bitcoin instead I'm sell it partially ,for every $ 1000 increment I sold it for profit or if I want a rush money

As a buyer :
I like to invest bitcoin  every month from my main salary because I believe bitcoin will worth more in the future !

Many people nowadays are selling bitcoin when it increases. Because they want to make profit from it and they can buy bitcoin again when its price is down. Bitcoin will be always the best currency.

If I had money now then I would buy bitcoin and put it on my wallet. I dream of holding the bitcoin when prices decrease, good profit will be bought. When prices rise then sell bitcoin. Many people sell for the money needed. Every person need money. When need money, then they will sell their bitcoin.If I have a lot of money , then I will buy bitcoin with all the money.

who sell bitcoin may be a moderator who has the right to bitcoin, because the moderator is entitled to everything in the bitcoin forum, we who are still JR.MEMBER can only pioneer from the bottom.

I think big players are selling their Bitcoins when they see the buy power is weakening after spikes in price.
Buy power at that price levels is primarily driven by "TA experts" followers and mid-size traders.
Dips are being bought by pro-traders.

Big players are more or less early adopters who need to sell some of their bitcoins to live or to reduce crypto-exposure.

who sell bitcoin are the ones who use bitcoin in this world and there are also many reasons people can be completely different to selling bitcoin. There are for the needs of his life, there is also to change his life. And 1 thing is the core reason people sell bitcoin associated with high value of bitcoin that can make it rich.

I think many people sell their bitcoin for their own needs or they want to regain profit sooner. I'm not sure the sellers going their bitcoin now is a smart decision. There are still a lot of big investors holding the bitcoin. It was still too early to sell and the bitcoin bubble could not explode right now. I believe the price may continue to rise.

Many people now a days selling bitcoin because trading, making a profit out of buying some stocks and sell it for a purpose of getting more money. Specially bitcoin investor's selling bitcoin.

I think Dealing with it, bitcoin is not enough to use (especially in 3rd world countries) you can live with bitcoin only. Currently we still need money to pay most of the goods.
Because although no matter how bullish you are in bitcoin, some people still need fiat; perhaps to pay bills, to buy random items, to pay for some kind of emergency, because they lack fiat, the stuff.

I think those people who dont have enough knowledge in investing to cryptocurrencies. losing will be the one who trigger people to sell their holdings.

I suggest before investing into crypto people should do research for them to be aware on what will be the do's and dont's to ensure your choice crypto is good and profitable.

Anyone can sell a bitcoin usually sell for a society that meets the needs of day to day but there is also a large investor who wants to sell the bitcoin or small investors and most communities that sell bitcoin to needs and desires.

do you mean who sell a lot of bitcoin. maybe mt.gox they withdraw more than 8k bitcoin from their wallet

Weeks after you posts this thread the bitcoin price goes to moon,so i guess you doubted why you had make this statements..

Because you sounds like in despair on selling bitcoin,and having some bitterness towards holdinthis coin,and i believe thay since December last year you have learned your lesson about holding and patience

I think It is mostly people who are new into the market that are selling. They are new and they do not understand the market so they are scared and are panicking and selling off coins.

They sell bitcoin because that's what it does, sell / buy bitcoin to get a profit, or sell bitcoin for wanting to get some cash money.
Maybe this guy has vast knowledge but they do not know the future, so they trust the bubble issue. and sell his bitcoin to an optimistic person can benefit from buying bitcoin.

Some are selling just because they believe that they have gotten enough profits from investing out of it. Other sell their bitcoins because they may need the money for emergency purposes.

Not a logical statement, the fact is that the price for bitcoin is formed in the market that is manipulated by owners of large volumes of BTC, they sell their stocks only in order to let go of the price down and buy even more BTC at a lower price.

The one who just investor before who knowledgable about marketing so they sell bitcoin to make a profit.

The market of crypto seems to breathe bitcoin. Bitcoin is mandatory on most exchanges. I sell bitcoin to buy other coins that grow in price faster

One can think about his/her safety.  Cybercrimes are so popular that having BTCs can be dangerous.  Others realize this and sell their BTCs right away.  Other reasons than that are people needing urgent money or others don't need it anymore.

of course people who sell bitcoin, the reason why people sell bitcoin because for the necessities of life or for family life for those who already have a family. But the average person sells bitcoin, if bitcoin the price is high.  ;D

In my opinion, Bitcoin is increasing in future after you'll need the capability to profit in future. There is always a supply and demand. someone sells because it is necessary to fix profits, then to buy again, if no one sold bitcoins, and everyone would hold it, the price soared to heaven, on the supply deficit and big demand.

Many people selling their bitcoin if the price increase because they want to make a profit. But not everyone has the same mindset. However my advice to those who sell just for no reason is to please hold as long as you can for prices to increase further. It's suit for saving money for long term, your little saving can turn to a wealth if the price multiply in the future.

Bitcoin price is volatile , it keeps on change based on demand and selling the bitcoin. If we see the bitcoin selling part , people who wants to trade quickly and who are unable to hold for long time to see the good results .If bitcoin price going down then they will confuse and sell it to loose less compared with real price where they will not enough patience to hold to see good price.

Mostly, selling due to important things where bitcoin is the only source of it and there is no other option even there is small profit to get. We sell bitcoin to have in cash to be used to buy needs and for allowance. If bitcoin is your only way to earn, you can sell because you work for it to have financial support despite of the volatility that the price will gonna up more after you sell but you cannot wait for that long.

Well in every market there must be a seller and a buyer. People sell bitcoin for various reasons. Some bought during the February dip when price went down very low and are trying to get their profit our, some sell now to use the money. Others are normal traders who do daily buying and selling. From the beginning till bitcoin got to the height it got to last year there has always been buying and selling and it will surely remain that way.

Well, not everyone holds the thoughts about rising price of bitcoin. May be they are not sure enough and sell BTC in order to avoid further risk. Also many BTC holders may actually need to sell their bitcoins and they have their own reasons.

On the exchange, people buy and sell bitcoin, that's all, in other words, the supply and demand

There are two options I see for people who are selling bitcoin: they really need fiat or they have more than enough to hold... And need fiat.

Either way, people can give you advice but try to set your own objectives and plans, after all only you know your financial situation and what you need. Don't mind too much the pieces of advice, use it in your own accord, just try not to lose your income, because you might have needs right now, but you will always need money.

You can't keep holding forever, it have no sense. Personally, i sell sometimes when i'm in need of cash or when the price is dropping and i'm planning to re-buy with lower price.

You may have heard te news lately. In case you have not: https://www.ccn.com/8200-btc-moved-from-mt-gox-wallet-possible-sell-off-affects-bitcoin-price/ (https://www.ccn.com/8200-btc-moved-from-mt-gox-wallet-possible-sell-off-affects-bitcoin-price/) The trustee of the remaining mt.gox bitcoins may be manipulating the market by selling off huge chunks of btc at a time to keep the price below 9k$

Some people are selling their bitcoin because maybe they are in need of money.It is better to sell bitcoin in a person than to sell it in an exchange in which will charge a high transaction fee. Everybody also cannot hold bitcoins so there should be a time somebody would sell their hold. All in all we cannot hold someone decision.

People are selling bitcoin because they need money like for their needs everyday or emergency purposes or other people are afraid the price of the bitcoin decreased more because if that happen they lose some profit. But if you need money and you decide to sell your bitcoin just sell  only some bitcoin.

Bitcoin has no central point of selling market, because bitcoin deals with smart contract base on peer to peer transaction by using Blockchain technology for honest of each transaction trust.

sale and buy its a normal nature . but during price fall panic seller sale bitcoin . most of the new comer doing that because they just follow the rumor and scam news on social media so they sale the coin.

People are selling Bitcoins to buy new Bitcoins ;) I think this is all about having "real" money, that people could touch. Also, It's good for using it at ICO's

I will not sell my bitcoin unless i need it and in a very emergency purposes but using it for my wants is a different. As much as possible i reserve my bitcoin for my future goals in life,  someday my dreams will come true with the help of crypto.

Many people selling their bitcoin if the price increase because they want to make a profit. But not everyone has the same mindset. However my advice to those who sell just for no reason is to please hold as long as you can for prices to increase further.

Not everyone here is desperate to convince each other to buy and hold, there is no such bitcoin, if bitcoin always go up, the value of bitcoin will be more like a bubble if the value just goes up because this is like a stock market, buying and selling are the cycle of it no one will earn profit if it just goes up

People are selling Bitcoin to earn Profit this is the main reason, They buy on cheap price then sell at higher prices (trading- the most profitable but most hard to do specially if your a newbie). there are also instances that they just want to withraw for emergency cases.


The knowledgeable People are those who hold a part of bitcoin and do trading (buying and selling). those who are getting rid of their bitcoin are now knowledgeable on what your are reffering too, its either they are losers or they don't know what bitcoin is

For me Maybe those people traders or these people have some financial needs that they sell their bitcoin for fiat money. There are a lot of reasons why they do this but if you don't have any nice reason and important reason for selling, just hold it and wait.

Many BTC sellers, you can go to Binance Exchange or other exchange. You should have a lot of guides on youtube trading floors that are very detailed.

I know information about co-founder bitcoin. Co-founder of bitcoin.com does not believe that this digital currency will become the everyday currency that people expect.

I think people is selling their bitcoins right now beacuse they need the physical money.

a common practice in the trade that if no one sells their assets at the current offered price, the buyer has no choice but to increase their offer until the seller has matched the offered price, the same thing can happen when the current price is less power will now be in the hands of the buyer because they are the ones that determine the price they want to buy your offload stock.

Some people are selling for trading, making a profit  out of  buying a some stocks and sell. We  know Bitcoin is intangible. Bitcoin is high profit currency. Nowadays Bitcoin user are  increasing of online Market. I think people sell Bitcoin  to use it from offline transaction. because the be some stores have not  develop online marketing.

With the existence of bitcoin trading and the number of exchange sites or trading sites means in this industry selling and buying is something normal. Selling does not mean a conspiracy to get rid of their bitcoin (that sells). If everyone has such thoughts then the bitcoin trade will no longer work.

Who is selling bitcoin? Well I can say that almost all of us is selling bitcoin. We do all also keep bitcoin then wait until this price or value goes high than the buying price then sell it for us to get profit. With this technique the only thing which we are different to each other is the percentage or the amount we want to have or the profit we want. In the other hand some people who don’t sell their bitcoin are those people who are using this a way of payment thru online and some other transactions by the use of internet.  

in my opinion, if the user just buys then holds it and without selling it, it is a waste of time. What benefits will they get? The process of buying and selling bitcoin is naturally exists. Do not then judge that those who sell are those who are slowly getting rid of their Bitcoin. It does not make sense to me.

I think people sell Bitcoin  to use it from offline transaction. because the be some stores have not  develop online marketing. Some people are selling for trading, making a profit  out of  buying a some stocks and sell. I hope, you can get a lot of money

You must know that a lot of people trade with the favorite strategy of buying low and selling high. The people that must be selling bitcoins are are the people that maybe bought it a low price and want to sell it a high price now. Some sellers too sell as part of their portfolio diversification, they sell to buy other alternative currency.

of course, Bitcoin investors who make a sale Bitcoin, the perpetrators of trading in the exchanger is including investors. any person who owns Bitcoin in large or small quantities and trades Bitcoin in large or small quantities are called investors.

I just remind you if you want to buy bitcoin wisely in managing your finances, make this as an asset of your property if you expect to gain profit in your daily life then this will backfire for yourself. bitcoin well if managed properly, "smart people may not succeed but be astute in any condition.

People who need money in real life righ here and right now, also traders who making money on difference of prices. Many newibes and bad investors are also selling bitcoins.

If someone's looking to pay the bills, it may be logical to take out, say, a month's worth of necessities," Josiah Hernandez, chief strategy officer of the bitcoin ATM network Coinsource, told Business Insider.

Because they simply need money.

You can have long-term goals and another person wants them for now and if you see the opportunity depends on the investment and the urgency it is launched on the market.

Many peoples or different kind of trader because the bitcoin price is high day to day. The traders buying bitcoins and store in her blockchain and when the price goes high he is sell the bitcoins. :)

Bitcoin is one of the online trading platforms. You can take advantage of Bitcoin for any decision. You can not trust Bitcoin on third world countries.

On the off chance that  you need to purchase bitcoin then you have to contact bitcoin holder or you  can contact with a neighborhood trades they will deal you bitcoin and I like  your choice of purchasing bitcoin on the grounds that the rate of bitcoin is  expanding in future so you can profit in future.

Haha. that's how the cycle works, doesn't it?

Anyway, don't be afraid to be at the bottom of the chain because everyday has a new entry.

I think there are many reasons why people sell bitcoins because they feel they are benefiting from bitcoin and take advantage of emerging opportunities to benefit

many people who sell bitcoin owned by most who sell bitcoin are in need of money or if they already feel a profit then they can attract and sell the bitcoin they milliiki, but hire me there is no harm in storing as much bitcoin as you can for your future.

This can be the anyone person also for any reason.

many people who sell bitcoin owned by most who sell bitcoin are in need of money or if they already feel a profit then they can attract and sell the bitcoin they milliiki, but hire me there is no harm in storing as much bitcoin as you can for your future.

many selling bitcoin if you buy bitcoin better than exchanger sites you buy bitcoin with less fee like poloniex legit poloniex can you buy there bitcoin more expensive you can charge or if you know someone selling bitcoin legit sellers you can buy there

It could be any peoples who wants to sell their coin for buying another coin.
in cryptocurrency, this will happened when some new coins is increasing rapidly.
They want to sell their btc, then buy that coin. later they will sell with the higher price and buy back bitcoin with more amounts.

I'm not sure about those who sell BTC, but I know some website to exchange BIT and other cryptocurrencies such as: Remitano.com, Aliniex.com, Exchangeno1.com, Localbitcoins.com,ect. You can access to these website to contact sellers

No, that does not automatically follow. I myself am planning to sell some of my Bitcoin holdings within this year. I am selling part of my Bitcoins because I am planning to start a business and I definitely need funding. But for sure by the time my business starts to earn I will also start to buy Bitcoins once again, especially during the red season as they come really cheap.

The traders were the one selling Bitcoin to gain profits.

Well, that's how the market works. Someone will buy and someone will sell regardless of their origins and their whereabouts as long as there is someone selling and there is someone buying. If people will think that some big store that sells bitcoin is a thing, then they're not really familiar yet with the market.

Trading is about buying and selling. While some people are buying, some are selling. People buy or sell for different reason best known to them. This action happens  to all tradable tokens on exchanges and  causes the increase or decrease in price of a token. So its not a bad thing to sell or buy Bitcoin or any token and it shouldn't be painted as such.

there are some possibilities of people who sell bitcoin, maybe they are afraid of losing, maybe they also take advantage of the opportunity already benefit from the previous purchase price

BTC futures with a clear bullish setup ::)

if you ask "why people sell bitcoin"
I replied because they might benefit a lot from bitcoin. for example if you buy bitcoin for $ 340 and when the bitcoin price rises to $ 380, would you sell it?
in my opinion maybe you will not think long, you will immediately sell it.

A lot of people will have their reasons foe selling their bitcoins and we can all agree that not every bitcoin investor is actually interested in the HODL strategy that we are tell our fellow investors to do. Some tend to buy low and sell high and make some profits in between.

I will not sell my bitcoin unless i need it and i already get some profit.  Holding it for long is much better, i consider it as my forget money because i want to have it for my future needs,  in any way.

for me to sell the bitcoin when I really need money to buy daily necessities, if there is no more money, I am forced to sell the bitcoin to replace it.

Selling my bitcoin is the least thing that i can do.  I believe that bitcoin price will rise in the future and having it will surely gain a lot when the price started to rise again.

Individuals and exchange sites sells bitcoin. There are several ways that a person can exchange for bitcoin and other cyptocurremcies. Some of the availbale once are Bittres, Binance, HitBtc and so on.

Bitcoin have a price because sell and buy transaction. If everybody holding their bitcoin and nothing transaction on market, i think there is no price on bitcoin. Some people selling their bitcoin because many reason and some people buying bitcoin for profits reason too.
Maybe some people selling their bitcoin because they need money or maybe just want to trade to double their bitcoin by buying the dip

we cannot really judge the person selling his or her bitcoin. who knows he or she needs money? we cannot really tell. in the market, is really a buy and sell. bitcoin is just like any other markets. there is no difference.

Now Bitcoins sell whales that manipulate the price and want to bring down the entire market, so to buy bitcoins at cheaper prices. However, their reserves of bitcoins are not infinite, sooner or later the market will rebound. And most likely it will be in the second half of this year.

I think anyone who sells bitcoin certainly has a strong reason that is in dire need of money, I'm sure that they are very optimistic about the future of bitcoin and for now there is no option to sell other than bitcoin.

The reality is they buy bitcoin because if the price of bitcoin when they sell it is higher than the price when they buy it, thats the time and the reason why they sell it. And in that way they can earn.

There could be a lot of reasons for selling bitcoin no one is willing to sell it for no reason, bitcoin is good to hold but some people use to face emergency so they sell bitcoin but I think it is good to keep some spare money with them so at time of need they can use it instead of selling the precious bitcoin, bitcoin is not like other market as selling and buying bitcoin really effect the price which is the reason why I always prefer holding than selling.

Everyone has their own personal reasons why they sell bitcoin. May be they are just in the need of money or want to try something different. We can't blame them for quitting this early. Let us just hope that in the end, a lot of people will be successful because of this. And whether you hold or sell, bitcoin will still remain because its primary goal is to improve our economy and it is starting to do it now.

Many people selling their bitcoin if the price increase because they want to make a profit. But not everyone has the same mindset. However my advice to those who sell just for no reason is to please hold as long as you can for prices to increase further.
