as we know, the price of Bitcoin had a bear run in 2018 with the lowest price at $3k on Dec 17, 2018 and now the price of Bitcoin has reached $25k and this is the new ATH price for Bitcoin, so if you buy Bitcoin in 2018 and HOLD until now, then you can get a profit of more than 700% and I also congratulate those of you who HOLD or bought Bitcoin in 2018 when the price of Bitcoin dump.

It was never their intentions to hold bitcoin that long, the truth is they invested at the wrong time thinking that Bitcoin will grow over 20k in 2017, they have no choice but to keep holding just to get back their money someday

if they were very faithful  in  holding, they still  have  profited  by now of over $5k. anyone who is about to  lose their money  from  from $20k worth  of btc will sell when the price is diving sharply down to $3k.

its a terrible pressure when the covd19 started and you lose job. anyone who had been suffering will really be  selling the btc they hope to keep. if  the person didn't lose his job and still have good financial status while he believes btc is the future but doesn't trade, i think  he would have been holding up to this day.

I'm one of those folks that have held during 2018 and also by this year at the lowest. It sounds easy but everyone who does that deserves to get a smile on their faces while looking as bitcoin closes to $26k by this time.

The time was hard on those days because too many negative people talking about their negative predictions. Some have expressed that they'll wait for it to dump some more before they buy. Believers and holders made it, we're turning to the next chapters of ATH.

Holding is the most powerful strategy in crypto and this is the only method I usually suggest to all my friends that new to crypto. I know that leverage trading is very tempting method but there is a high risk incorporated on it.

I decided to hold on Bitcoin since 2018 after the all time high. I buy various Physical coin such as casascius coin and satori during the time when BTC price was low and now I'm still holding on. I will open my coin once BTC price reach 100K USD.   8)

There is always a choice to be made. They could have sold, realise  the loss and find something else to invest their money into. Also there is no "universal" wrong time to invest in something. It all depends to the timeframe the investor is looking to lock their money in that investment.


I think the majority of investors who are fueling this Bitcoin bull run are institutional. They are not that sensible to market fluctuations as they have high net worth individuals as stakeholders.

There are some people who are willing to hold bitcoins not because of their value, but because of the characteristics of bitcoins. More precisely, those who are comfortable with freedom without regulation, so that their bitcoin will be spent a lot after bitcoin is fully functional as a currency like fiat (mass adoption).

That is true though but a lot of people started on the wrong foot, that is, they jumped into the crypto space because of what they heard from people and what they heard Bitcoin was doing, and when the price dumped they had no choice than to sell at loss because they never got the time to study Bitcoin and know the potential thereof. But with what Bitcoin has done this year, it has succeeded in transforming the crypto space, brought a lot of attention, brought a lot of institutional investors, brought a lot of platforms which are now seeing it fit to adopt it to their payment systems and many more; all these in one way or the other contributed to the price of Bitcoin we are seeing today. So the lesson to learn from Bitcoin is, go for a coin that has potential and very good use case, then hold on to it and one day you will be glad you did, but do so with a fund you can afford to lose.

Its always regular chain of ATH all time high, ATL, all time low for Bitcoin investors, if this is all to think,ponder-on, holding would be like the battle a chain smoker gets when he says is about the quite cigarette. The battle Will be worse if price falls, although I have a sense that price won't be as exciting in January 2021

He only told is those intended to invest in 2018 of December which is the lowest price of Bitcoin for the last 3years . Those who bought Bitcoin in 2017 time I guess they already sold it in early 2018 or when the price dump so hard to $3k$ for fear of loosing its value more. The only person who will continue holding it that time is those who have a many avaialbe money to use in real life and not ordinary investors that only want to earn from their capital that they use that's why they invested in BTC in 2017.

I don't congratulate bad investments made on greed. Anyone bought at $20k in 2017 it was a mistake. Buying at $3k in 2018 required guts as all you were listening was fear and traders wanting less price to buy. I did make a good return but I wish I didn't have to sell to the banksters that took over. Since it is their game now, I'm not interested too much, it is not about anything for me just to make profit. I tried to be an idealist but there is nothing like that, perhaps it was in early days. Now it is all about making more fiat money for yourself.

I also join you in congratulating the set of people who bought Bitcoin at the date you mentioned because I know the profit margin is a way lot higher now. The power to hold and believe in your goal matters a lot not only in the crypto world but generally applicable to the whole essence of creation. To believe in whatsoever you are doing.

The strength of hodling lies in the fact that all people who invested before the month of 11 years 2020, he will make profits regardless of the amount he bought with as long as he kept those currencies, and the earlier you bought, the greater the profit, even those who bought at the end of 2017 when the price broke each Its ATH.

The believe is that paper money is going to be less low. all the printing and inflation that governments are doing.

As Bitcoin reaches new highs, people start comparing it to the prices, but this isn't a good idea. Past performance does not guarantee future performance, the causes behind price movements change with time, and expecting the history to keep repeating itself is quite naive. These institutional investors that are active now do not "hodl and believe", they make market analysis and decide that right now Bitcoin is a good investment, given the current circumstances. Learn from them and approach investing rationally instead of emotionally.

Out of curiosity i would like to know how long you are willing to hold to reach $100k  ;). You need to have good patience for the price to reach those valuation as per my understanding of the market even though there are speculation about the price reaching those levels in a much shorter period of time.

If you are able to invest at the right time when the market was on the bear run, you will understand the power of HODL and not when the market is rallying and breaching all the resistance ;D.

It sounds easy and possible but practically it's really difficult because it all the investors are in for long term investment but rather they look for periodic returns. Especially during last bear market the value of Bitcoin fell so drastically that users started assuming it would go to zero and we had so many negative articles about Bitcoin which made it really difficult to hold on to bitcoin at that time. Now people will not repeat same mistake and kudos to those who managed to hold on tot their investment during bearish market.

While that kind of growth is impressive by itself at the same time we need to be realistic, how many people actually bought a huge amount of bitcoin at those levels when the market was in full panic mode? Only whales and incredibly strong hands, everyone was either selling or kept holding because they did not knew what they were doing, so almost no one got profits close to that.

However the good thing is that you did not needed to do anything resembling that or even hold for that long, just this year in March there was a drop in the price of bitcoin to 4k so in just a few months you could have gotten similar profits if you were smart enough to understand that the market was panicking because of the coronavirus.

Being a holder really makes us stressed in times where we don't see any positive movements in the price of bitcoin. But now that we are celebrating because of a new all-time-high, this is the best time for us to reflect how bitcoin reached this milestone. Bitcoin has already reached $25k and is still on going in the market. There are a lot of investors right now who are really happy and having so much profit during and after Christmas. Hoping that you seize the opportunity to make bitcoin profitable this year.

Not just bitcoin though, even Ethereum who has its lowest price at around $80 in 2018 could have turn you big profits as well.

That's why we need to understand that HODL takes years, not just 12 months, but at least 3 years will get you a net positive %. But we also have to understand the exponential growth will slow down, so that 700% returns might be like 200%-300% in the future. But still a good investments compare to other instruments or assets out there.

The market is deeply in a struggle last 2018-2019. Well, I hate to remember those days which the forum is full of negativity. If we are going to compare it today, I think we are in the same scenario what it makes a huge difference this time it is because of Covid-19 that helps the crypto market to get known.

If we only know that this COVID-19 would come and will bring the price like this, I can say that all of us are probably holding a lot of Bitcoin during the bear season. However, we don't and only it brought to our mind just now. We miss again the chance...

Same here dude. I think, when I entered bitcoin, the price was at it's lowest. But that didn't really bother me. My mindset during that time was to learn and to earn if I can, at the same time. I have watched the rise and fall of bitcoin's price over the past three years of my stay here and now that it has reached a new ATH, those BTCs I have held are now making me really happy because of the profit that I am accumulating. Hodling and faith works good together. ;D

If we did not do a research for sure we do not believe to bitcoin but we do a lot of things that we need to know about bitcoin so we believe and hold until the price is rise like today holding and waiting is really worth it and we got a good result that we really wants.

Bitcoin have a lot of believers and we really believe more thay bitcoin will have chances to up the value because people think positive and keep buying bitcoin.

This kind of mindset is very crucial. Simply believing without any basis or supporting data to have an assurance that you will have profits in Bitcoin if you hold it will just lead you to something very disappointing. Trust me, even a prayer wouldn't work against the chart information, that's why technical analysis is important and a great foundation to support your "beliefs" that Bitcoin will gives your profits in a long run.

Disclaimer: I'm not saying that Bitcoin won't give you profits. What I'm saying is that you'll never have any profits if you'll just simply gonna hold your Bitcoin without knowing the bearish and bullish market.

It takes up a lot of courage before someone can be able to hodl and keep believing amidst the negativities occuring as time passes by. Patience will always be a virtue and perseverance will bring you to greater heights. If you failed to meet such standards and regretted a lot with the current situation of bitcoin, let it be a lesson learned and start reflecting on the things you should do next whenever a chance is given to you again. Not everyone has the same kind of patience upon hodling, so if you're one of those who are lucky enough to experience this massive bull run, be thankful and be careful with your decisions so that you can make the most of it till it lasts.

Thanks OP. I bought a lot in 2015 and 16 and held ever since. I held all the way through 2017 peak to the 2018 low of 3k, without selling a single coin. Let's see how far we'll go this time, but I think I'll sell at least 1 BTC now to celebrate those years of holding and have some fun. The rest will wait for another milestone like 50k, when I'll have another party at Bitcoin's expense. Long live bitcoin and good luck to all hodlers! 8)

for now it seems like it's still a good moment to own bitcoin, because now if we look at the potential for bitcoin it can be very high. or wait for the bitcoin price to drop to a low position and buy in large quantities while waiting for the price to increase

Seem like you'll rarely see some investor who will still hold their bitcoin since the dump and until now. Most of them will have sold bitcoin when its price increase to $11.000 at 2019 ago before its price meet a correction and touch below $10.000. But there will be some investor who bought bitcoin at the $8000-$10.000 when the correction came and hold until now. A crash that has happened will make many investors worried to hold them for long term investment, they will sell first to take the profit and see the next sentiment market if the sentiment felt still good they will buy back to see what price that will be reached.

Even now, at the peak, you can safely buy bitcoins, since a relatively small amount of time will pass and the bitcoin price will go up again. The rise in the price of bitcoin to 28 thousand caused a lot of hype in the media space. Now, many have paid attention to bitcoin, especially billionaires, so bitcoin will only increase its price and demand among people. I am sure that in the near future there will also be significant prerequisites for an even greater increase in demand for bitcoins.

if you can survive and don't sell 1 Bitcoin you are very good. Someone will be mentally shaken when holding for a long time. Especially when the bitcoin price starts to be bearish at the lowest price below the price you bought at first. Holding is a very appropriate strategy for people who want to invest in bitcoin for a long time but get a lot of profit. But Buying bitcoin must also be at the right time in order to get a cheaper price.

You now have a new goal of reaching the $ 50k price tag. That's pretty awesome, but the $ 30k ATH is still waiting for now.

I'm some kind of crypto enthusiast. First time I've known about bitcoin at the end of 2017 when it was about to get its first ATH. I've spent a few hundred $ to buy some BTC and tried to get a profit by trading. Unfortunately, I didn't get lucky but I decided to buy some more BTC and just keep on waiting when the price will get higher. Now I'm happy I haven't lost my faith but I still hope BTC will grow much higher.  :D

Happy ending  ;D


@AakZaki is famous Exchanger in indonesia and still dont believe that he holdmuch BTC  ::) that's crazy Celebrate is okay i think to buy some new car  8)

anyway hodl bitcoin for long investor is give much benefit event tho bitcoin price is volatile, but for bounty hunter like me hold its kinda hard to do when bill arrived in your doorstep  :'(

I would appreciate all those holders who were holdings BTC after 2017 pump the market was extremely red after this and people who were holding from long time ago were really worried because of negative predictions like BTC might even go for zero etc. It's not so easy to judge the market as everyone knows because of its volatility and finally they have been rewarded with loads of money for their patience.

Holding is best choice this crypto market. Last 2 years bitcoin price not up. Who buy bitcoin since 2018 and hold today almost rich bitcoin holder so I believe hold is better choice crypto

BITCOIN IS A MARATHON A LONG GAME.  HODL ALL THE WAY FOR ME!    ;D

People who have invested on early 2018 after the bull run that happened at late month of 2017 have invested in a wrong time for the price goes into a big declination if they have get engaged at $20,000 and suffer from a big dip that happened. Good thing for those who have happened to invest when the price dip and have all their patience upon waiting until the price recovers and reach its new ATH again. But for those who have happened to give up their investments that early, we cannot be blame them for they do also have other expenses that are needed to attend to and it just to happen they have entered at a wrong timing. All in all, still congratulations for those who persevere on holding their Bitcoin for too long and experience the benefit that Bitcoin gives to them right now.

Definitely those who invested in 2008 have already withdraw some last 2017 ATH and if they still do invest and buy after that they were still really in profit, holders and those who already gain alot from BTC already know the value and importance of Holding since BTC still have lot of adoption that can happen in future that can give more chance of price increase, we should only be calm and monitor the market throughly. It is good to get profit but being able to still left some is a good decision still even the price is already setting another ATH.

In fact, I appreciate for those who are still holding butc can get through the scary year 2018-2019 maybe they are now happy with the state of the higher price than ATH before, therefore we have to be strong, we have more faith in bitcoin completely. btc can't do anything if the government doesn't interfere in it then I say it's not true, bitcoin is not controlled by anyone, therefore with a lot of demand and high volatility it makes prices high.

Thank you for knowing me. I have become the Official Exchanger of Indodax and Binance P2P.
having lots of bitcoins is everyone's dream, my basket is still not full of Bitcoin. The new ATH target has been reached and it's time to enjoy the results. Buying a new car?
I guess "New Janda" is fine too LOL. : v

There's no reason not to hold Bitcoin, buy some and forget about it, it's really simple isn't it. When the bill arrives at your door, don't sell your bitcoins, but sell your shitcoins: v

As long as possible and not too risky for you, holding Bitcoin pays huge long-term returns. We can say this based on the past. Bitcoin Hodler has been very happy for the past few days. As the technology behind Bitcoin becomes more and more understood, people prefer to be Hodler by trusting this unique currency rather than selling it. However, as cryptocurrencies are volatile, according to some people, at the right moment it is better to sell. Here is another option for those. They can make less risky transactions by constantly purchasing small amounts, both by owning Bitcoin and checking the market frequently.

I don't know if someone really holds their BTC from that year because the vies in the market that year is not so pleasing to look at. Most of the holders are from the 2019 when the price was lost and after that, they continue to grow until today. Most likely the price will continue to rise until next year because most of the issue of bitcoin has been cleared already and right now, in my opinion, no issues can stop it to surge its price even more than $25,000.

Some of them are from 2017-2018 when the bitcoin price starts to rise. They attract to bitcoin and invest their money because in that year, many news telling people to invest in bitcoin before explodes. Besides that, the ICO and IEO were booming at that year, so that can attract more people to come and invest in crypto. Perhaps, some people still hold their bitcoin which they bought that year, and they already sold it this year. Yes, they are making a lot of money by selling their bitcoin now, but some people still hold their bitcoin because they want to make a bigger profit later.

It is true that there are people who still hold bitcoin even though the price has gone up, but I prefer to sell bitcoin now because I buy bitcoin at a much cheaper price than the current price.

I remember, at that time many people in my country chided and even said that bitcoin was a scam, but Patience always ends beautifully, congratulations for those who hold back from selling from 2018.

Those who are hodling their BTC's are definitely enjoying what is happening in the crypto-verse right now. Another All-Time High is achieved by Bitcoin and those people that are saying it is a scam kind of thing are crying right now. Welcome to the moon guys. "Two thumbs up"  ;)

Only true hodlers get their true rewards in crypto. However, its important to cash out (at least for re-buy) in the right time

It's so simple to say, but very difficult to follow, especially for long term investors. Investing in a coin and then watching your investment go low is never a pleasant thing. I have come to realize that patience is very necessary in any market situation and your choice of coins for investment and investment time also matters. Plan your funds, don't fomo, but at more dip, take profit at intervals is a simple way out.

It depends on how much they buy bitcoin in the past, some buy at 20,000$ in 2017, the extra 5000$ isn't worth the wait since four years now but all the same it's still better than not getting anything at all but I believe that altcoin can bring better ROI than btc hopefully soon

As the saying goes, holders are winners and i do believed that because i have experienced that being a strong hands will eventually take you places. Even though i have some regrets in crypto because i am weak hands selling too early and not holding it for the right time to sell that's why i envy hodlers that got will of iron to not to be tempted what every price it may come.

dont worry all people started with a weaker hands but by the time they know that crypto work this way that it can recover and rose more , they will try again and they will now have a stronger hands

 though you will still need to pair it with a strong coin picks because they work better as a combo .

hodlers are good influence that sellers needs to follow if they want to improve their money making career in cryptos

HODLers are investors who have trusted Bitcoin for a long time and believe that the cryptocurrency will get the value it deserves on time.

2020 is the year of pump and dump for bitcoin, dump coming that the world provides a pandemic statement,
and pump for the reason of mass adoption, if you believe in Hold, then you have to be really strong,
strong in terms of emotions and thoughts, because if not, of course you will sell when the dump occurs.

Of course, whoever has the patience to hold Bitcoin from 2018 until now deserves this prize, now Bitcoin is  28,000$, and this is actually a big prize for those who have kept Bitcoin in their wallets all this time.
We can also say that this can be repeated, meaning now Bitcoin is  28,000$, and after four or five years, its price may be between 50-100K, so those who buy Bitcoin and hold it until that time will get a similar prize.

But the question is how many of those who bought in that price are still holding their investment?
Do you think that they didn't sell it when their investment become double or triple worth of their money?

You cant tell if they do really still hold at this very moment or havent able to sell off their coins because in all the prices that we had passed.
Presuming that 10k was the ending point for those who bought 3k and targeting 10k take profit which means they do able to sell off early.
Good for those who had held without selling a single satoshi until this very moment.I would say that it is wise to sell those coins on this moment.
If we do check out on how much you had made in a shortest possible time then you can say that you do really have some serious gains on here.

The scenarios of this kind of recovery ability will build more hope and believe of holding Bitcoin. It's not advisable to be done to altcoins.

In many cases that we have been tested by our beliefs and trust in Bitcoin. For many ups and downs that we have faced in the past days, I'm also doubted if normal people can still be holding but probably they have been selling off their coins. Well, whales could make it, but if you are just casual investors because for me, I'll take every pump opportunity and sell my holdings.

Holding will it matters on the situation and not all holding will give us also the higher benefit than making a trade if there is a chance to make some profit. That why we have this Buy at Low, Sell at High, and we have that cycle.

If you have good knowledge with this investment business and you truly believe maximizing your profits in terms of
holding your assets is very beneficial.


If you comes out too early then regrets will follow and hunts you up, though it's better than nothing.


but most of the time fomo happened and theother side happened, buy high and sell low. Be careful with your timing.


Everyone have the same sentiment with you for sure.

Short term hold is also good, especially if the price can jump to the high price, so we can sell it to profit and buy back when the price is down. I am sure that when the price is jump high, the price will go down and back to the last current price because the market will be like that. I agree that we can buy the dip, hold it for a while, and use a short term and long-term investment to profit.

If you are comfortable with your profits then you can sell whenever you want, just make sure to keep some bitcoin in the case your prediction is wrong and the price begins to go up once again, after all you do not want to have sold all your bitcoin if we reach 100k during this bull run right?

Personally I prefer to keep holding and see what happens since I think there is a chance that once the 30k level is broken the price of bitcoin is going to increase at an accelerated rate, most likely at that point the price is going to be in a bubble, but who cares since at that point our profits will be so high that it makes no difference.

i see that your more interested on the outcome of the price than securing profits . you a rare kind of breed huh . if the price go for more , your going to be a happy camper but if not , its no problem with you  .

you know what bubble means? thats when the value collapse or pop as if its like a real bubble. theres a big difference because we will not earn anymore if price plummets while if theres no bubble we can earn safely . bubble is so far a term popularly use by btc haters to scare people

Long-term retention works for bitcoin so far, but we have no guarantee that this will continue for very long. For other cryptocurrencies, this works for top coins and very few tokens.
It should also be noted that from the point of view of the present time, it is easy to judge what needed to be done in the past. However, now, for example, we do not know whether Bitcoin will fall in price after such a long and high price increase or not. At the end of next year, of course, we will easily give advice on the current situation. Therefore, not everything is so simple.

The power of hodling can be understood with the price difference between the years. Most of the users who have come into the cryptomarket will find it hard to believe, but when they benefit out of it the trust increases. Among the people who believe, very few have the ability to hodl whereas the majority cash out in between to meet personal needs.

only a handful of people who might survive, I think most of them have lost their trust and sold the bitcoins they already owned.
trust does not come naturally but must be formed with experience and strong determination.
only certain people can hold from each FUD in circulation.

When it comes to bitcoin in crypto market then the word "More longer you HODL then more profits you will make" proved once again in 2020.People said 2017 price will be the highest ever price for bitcoin but it shattered in the next bullish cycle itself which was the same story in the previous bull runs in the bitcoin market so one who dare to take such risk of holding bitcoin will be rewarded the best but guys remember than its only suitable for bitcoin not for any shit coins.

After every 2-3 years we have such holders who had bought bitcoins bought at very less price. But the thing is after every 2-3 years we will see bitcoin going upwards and hence any holder today will eventually end up having huge bag of stash. For ex, I believe in today's price of bitcoin which is 29k USD. I know that this is gonna be more than 40k after 2-3 years thus making me holder at less price. :)

It's better we must hold and learn some lessons out of this. Those who understand that BTC price keep going upwards no matter what will be smart investors of this era.

If anyone is still HODL Bitcoin from 2018 until now, of course it is very lucky, because seeing the price of Bitcoin is now at $ 29,000. But I believe
the number of people still HODL Bitcoin from 2018 is very small, because I myself can only HODL until 2019 and finally sold it. If you have a little
patience, you will definitely have a big profit. Now I don't want to repeat the same mistake and plan to HODL Bitcoin for at least the next 5 years.

but you must have a target to sell Bitcoin that you have, so you can still get a profit because we never know the state of cryptocurrency market and of course I also still hold 70% of Bitcoin that I own, because I have sold 30% of Bitcoin that I have when the price of Bitcoin reaches $ 28k and the remaining 70% I will sell until the price of Bitcoin reaches $ 30k - $ 35k (35% at $ 30k and 35% at $ 35k), I sell it gradually because I don't want the incidents in 2018 to happen again (Bitcoin price goes down, but I didn't sell Bitcoin that I had when the price of Bitcoin increase very high in 2017), then I also don't want to sell Bitcoin that I have at the lowest price, because the price of Bitcoin is still increasing.

Everyone won't believe in its growth, and for the one who believe circumstances won't let them hold. I sold around 0.45btc when the price was close around $5000. I sold it to support my relative, but I know it'll grow. It is the circumstance that makes our mind soft and do it. If I've kept hold, now I could've got a much bigger profit.

That's 2 years Holding , and that is the Best way to accumulate coins ..

The problem is the capacity to hold, because many of us has been trying to Invest for long term ,But once the market start to collapse they are the first to Withdraw and added on the Dumping market.

things that favors the Whales because they can again Buy more while the price is dropping .

Basically it’s just p have bitcoin in your wallet as the price can be determined by many factors like you said bitcoin experience the bull run at some point and it’s possible for bitcoin to experience another positive or negatively run in the nearest future so I won’t advise you store all your funds in bitcoin expecting the price to double in some few period based on your assumptions or market analysis.

It’s wont be wise also to have bitcoin in your wallet and make hold of it Believing it’s going to appreciate in future when you’re starvtor going through some financial challenges that your bitcoin if converted to fiat can properly take care of those bills . We should be wise in our bitcoin hold and believe at all times to be on a safer side.

If you hold that long then that was commendable because it is nearly impossible for anyone who will hold that long because when day saw Bitcoin reaching around $10k they might probably sell already. Upon holding there's a limit because it is always not working on our side. I mean you might be seeing a good price right now like $29k at this point and still growing but we never knew when this will end thus why having a target point sell or goal is highly recommended, you don't want to miss the opportunity. Holding was not bad in fact its a good strategy and I've been using it but you should when to have your exit.

One thing is for sure this 2020, its not the same as 2017 and the possibility of it growing is better than before. As 2018 commenced, most users want out of the Cryptocurrency Industry so some of the users are selling every possible Cryptocurrency that they had which is a bad idea. Some Cryptos did have sudden surges and some did not have it but they should have not labeled Cryptocurrencies as a bubble because Bitcoin proved them wrong.

This season is really not the same before like 2017-2018 because bitcoin already proved a lot of things such as its bullish run without pattern.

Also there are a lot of bitcoin investors this year due to pandemic and people are more curious about how bitcoin works and how bitcoin make people earn huge profits in the market.

Bitcoin community is really progressing these past few months. On July, bitcoin is having a positive movement in the market which served as a sign that its price will possibly make another ATH. That's what pushes me to buy more and hold and look at now, we are celebrating and monitoring its nature to have a new ATH and unlock a new milestone.

boy sminem helped a lot to

People who HODL and never sell are fools.  Say you brought 1BTC when they were $1K.  If you just held it you would have $29K (which is a good return for 5 years).  But after that, at one point your investment went down to just $3K.  If however you saw the 2017 peak and sold at $16K on the way down and then brought at $4K (2019) on the way back up again, you would have 4BTC at $29K.  That is over $100K.

Obviously if you know the future then you can time the market.  No one knows when the peaks and when the troughs are though except in hindsight.  If everyone knew that $19.x K was the high, everyone would've sold.  If everyone knew the future, then they would've bought at $1.

Buying and holding is a great strategy for everyone who has done it so far.  Will this time be different?  Who knows except that EVERY time is different than the last.  This time institutional buying is more long term than trading, e.g. things like short term trading on Coinbase/Coinbase Pro/Gemini vs MSTR, Square, Galaxy, MassMutual, Guggenheim, and of course, GBTC (which is in turn owned by places like ARK, Kinetics, etc.)  From what I've read, these are long term holders looking for diversification.   Would they panic sell?  Perhaps, but much less likely than leveraged traderson any of the trading platforms or people in 2017 who were trying to make a quick buck and then panicked.  This adds stability to the fiat price and also decreases supply for sale which alone will increase the fiat price, let alone the halving last year, and the increase in demand.

Sure each time people were saying "bubble" there was volatility, but likewise each time there was an order of magnitude or 2 growth in fiat price and then it came down some, but nowhere near back to the earlier prices.  It then ended up retracing back to the next high.  

So if you know the future, time the market.  If you don't know the future, well, think about what really makes sense.

Patience is a virtue if we have HOLD Bitcoin for a long time or if we bought Bitcoin in March at the start of the pandemic when the price of Bitcoin plummeted due to it and other factors.

Pleasant surprise! A new ATH surprises us because Bitcoin is being seen as the best asset to invest, a refuge from any currency in the world.

The power of Bitcoin is acting on those people who have entrusted their assets to it. If we add that they could be living in countries with a bad economy or hyperinflation, Bitcoin is fulfilling its objective.

Thats why you shouldn't hold ALT coins (excluding ETH)

That's short-term thinking not a very wise advice as it only works for about 20% of the people, you risk big losses as the price is never predictable.

In the long run the best winnings will be taken by the HODLERS, when 1 BTC = 1 MILLION you will say I was right because none of these schemes will ever get you that far.

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are splashed across news headlines on a regular basis, charting a wild ride of extreme highs and lows. Once the sole domain of anti-establishment millennials burned by the 2008 recession, many institutional investors have shed their skepticism and are dipping their toes into the crypto market, adding exposure through crypto funds, futures, and other emerging investment options.

Bitcoin holding is very beneficial. Who whold from 2018 are now will full happy. I talk also those person whome holding from 2012 and now one can imagine how much they created profit in 8 years.
Bitcoin hits 40 k some days ago then maje correctness . Now again close to 40 k . once bitcoin get this margin. Next step will be 50 k. 20% chances that it reach to 50 k in this month January 2021.
I  holding still and wait for 50k

yeh ofcourse its a great moment for all those whoes buy btc in early quarter of 2020 and hold them with a patient.
 and now thats a great moment for them after a long patient they get alot of profit from btc.
personally i believe on holding. i am also a holder of too many altcoins as well as btc  at the moment.
now i am still holding btc for his 1million$ price

At the same time, it cannot be said that this statement applies to all cryptocurrencies. Virtually only Bitcoin and some of the higher-cap altcoins deserve long-term retention. Those who saw their tokens growing in the second half of 2017 and did not have time, and who did not manage to sell them at a bargain price, also hoped for their long-term retention. As a result, most of them simply disappeared from the market.
Holding any cryptocurrency carries a certain amount of risk. And not only in terms of price. There are also many technical, organizational and other reasons why we may lose access to our cryptocurrency. Therefore, each of us must choose his own option and his own way of working with cryptocurrency.

maybe there will always happen and it must also be remembered that when the beginning of last year the pandemic began to hit the world, many experienced difficulties as well as for those who joined crypto, of course those who can still maintain their bitcoin are clearly not financially disturbed, not those who have indeed experienced layoffs, business who dropped drastically etc., it is certain that there is a dilemma whether to stay or have to sell for necessities.

It is clear that during the pandemic many were forced to sell their bitcoins for urgent purposes rather than having to hold them for a very long time. So in fact, now we need changes so that there can be a resurgence, presumably altcoins can start to grow well so that the bounty will be more enthusiastic.

I believe that a holder is a strong person, even able to withstand for years, in the midst of a storm of uncertain price ups and downs, very mentally training. if it is not supported by the knowledge of the willingness to update information related to the development of the project and the cryptocurrency ecosystem in general, it will definitely be difficult. The risk is great, but if you succeed in choosing the right project with the right strategy and timing, you will definitely get big profits like you.

We can see the power of holding and believe, if we take a look back on the price of the bitcoin on year 2018 we can figure out that the people who buy bitcoin that year and hold unti now still has an earnings, but the reality is only few people are buying and holing a big amount of bitcoin that is why only few earns on this bull run. I see that many of us are now waiting for the another dip to buy more bitcoin and hold.

Whoever believes in bitcoin could hold as long as they want, even for years but the things are when the price rise and hit the ath, people can't resist the temptation to take the profit and buyback in the dip, moreover if people have an urgency in need of cash, sell Bitcoin is one of the options as a reserve asset.
However, for people who don't need to sell bitcoin, it's a good thing for them as bitcoin has huge potential to increase over time and possibly to reach $100k.

lol, yep, that sounds like me.

the purpose of bitcoin as an investment is to hold it and wait longer to have a good value of it.

We've heard a lot of stories about panic sailing because of FOMO or market dumping and I think there is no drama with it. We're all humans and we have feelings and sometimes they force us to do things we regret after. But if you have a strong will and strict confidence about Bitcoin's future and you still holding after the last ATH so I admire you. You have possessed great courage and determination if you still wait for the new records and keep your faith strong.

thank you friend, of course there is a good message implied from him for everything because you experienced this and of course it is very good to give and share with those who may not have experienced it because it is clear that panic will not solve something that could change what will happen next.

but it could be that what will happen to you will be different but at least there is something to note that panic does not solve the problem. This is a moral message that is important to give and understand to those who have not and should not happen.

surely there are those who still hold their bitcoins but don't panic like you but return to the needs that must be prioritized, we know that early last year the pandemic hit the world and maybe many have to sell it because of the inevitable need, will you also experience this! !! if you are going to experience it means you don't need to regret it, many are not so happy with the increase in bitcoin because many don't have it, at least altcoins. unfortunately altcoins didn't see a sharp increase in the last year and we hope this year will happen.

There is always the risk of losing your investment, so we must be aware and prepared for that. Luckily for me, i was able to sell my bitcoins back in 2017 when the price went up to $20,000 before it drastically went down.

The thing with holding crypto is, it's a high risk - high reward, long term investment. Just like the saying "don't put all your eggs in one basket", you must not put everything into it. You must only invest what you can afford to lose.

yeaa I agree on that, I also did a panic sell in 2018 and I sold all my bitcoin investments for that time but I decided keep my ethereum investments for a possible pump, bacuase I saw a real power and use cases behind the ethereum project. That was the main reason why I sold my bitcoins, because I didn't see anything real supporting the project but I did a mistake and there is not possibility to bring these btcs back so we have to move one and keep these coins/alts with a solid project behind, like ethereum and hold them for some more years. In my opinion, ethereum can increase the price faster than bitcoin, so if you invest X money today, you will get a better profit than if you invested on btc, but that's my personal opinion.

Well its quite normal to become worried if the price is decreasing since we dont know how far it will go down. But those who believe in btc and didnt need their money yet can bear to hold for months or years. Thats the advantage of investing your spare money that is not meant for important things. Nevertheless there's always a chance to correct our past mistakes so learn from that experience and be a wise investor now who dont panic easily if there's a correction.

No, buddy. Bitcoin can be used as an asset and as a currency it depends on each individual point of view but if Bitcoin is only used as an asset it will never the mainstream of payment, it will never the mainstream adoption and it will never achieve its purpose cause it was created to serve as an alternative currency to fix the problem (inflation) the government couldn't fix through fiat currency

It looks simple and conceivable but essentially it's truly troublesome since it all the speculators are in for long term speculation but or maybe they search for intermittent returns. Particularly amid final bear advertise the esteem of Bitcoin fell so radically that clients begun accepting it would go to zero and we had so numerous negative articles approximately Bitcoin which made it truly troublesome to hold on to bitcoin at some past moments, but now BTC is crossing its milestone and sources said may be it cross above $100k.

Yes it’s good to hold and believe, although this can only be easy when you have enough finance and you’re doing nothing with the one you’re investing.

I was surprised yesterday when I saw someone that has been holding his bitcoins since 2010, like I couldn’t believe that, since I have not seen anyone that is holding their coins since then, I thought that they might have all sold their coins during the 2017 bull run. This guy has over 50k coins and said he wants to sell it, and now that price is $35k, that’s a lot of money.

No one But, Bitcoin can be utilized as an resource and as a cash it depends on each person point of see but on the off chance that Bitcoin is as it were utilized as an resource it'll never the mainstream of installment, it'll never the standard selection and it'll never accomplish its reason cause it was made to serve as an elective money to settle the issue of high price of commodities the government couldn't settle through fiat cash.

Perhaps the moment is approaching now when it will be possible to buy bitcoin relatively cheaply.  
However, many of us will buy it?  

Bitcoin gives everyone the chance to make big profits.  However, people very often miss the opportunity to improve their lives.  

Bitcoin requires faith.

If a person does not believe in Bitcoin, then most likely he will begin to commit erroneous actions.  At the same time, it will seem to him that he thinks logically, and his actions are reasonable and adequate to the situation.

Yes the power of holding and believing is really powerful and I also want to congratulates those people who make this far on holding their bitcoins but what I am thinking is that people can hold it for more than 2 years? imagine 2018 to early 2021 they are holding their bitcoin for that long. In my case I am also holding bitcoin but for me I cannot wait that long in order to get my profit.

sometimes we are not strong enough to sell it when bitcoin is up 30% or 50%, there are lots of spammers who say they have to sell and the issue of bitcoin price drops. the fact is that none of this is true, holding on to one's own beliefs is better than having to believe in bad issues. hold will provide big profits if we are patient

You're right! But the same can be said about 2014, for example, then if you bought, then you could also get crazy interest. But who knew?) Right now, what do you think is worth buying?

Having faith in Bitcoin is really helping and driving investors to be strong and be patient. I'm not sure how many had the said enthusiasm and faith in crypto. Might be very unfortunate that only a few have managed to take hold despite the crisis we face this time coz I know that many are regretting selling their Bitcoin so early.

If we can imagine 2 years holding, it is a long sacrifice for us. Not a usual thing to do unless if you really don't money but rather just to keep Bitcoin for the entire life without spending on it. (It wasn't me)

You're not alone as many people who also invested on bitcoin's ATH on 2017 also panic sell when the price decline so fast after that year ended. Most investors were scared of losing their money that time especially that most of them were just joining the hype that time. That may also be the reason why the price decline was so massive as investors were also pulling back and there wasn't much of a wall that time to support the 20k$ ATH.
Anyway, if you've invested somewhere between 2018 and 2020 then you've also gain a certain amount of profit as the new ATH that bitcoin achieved is too massive compared to the 2017 ATH and also there is a wall that support the current price that prevents the sudden massive dump.

As long as there's a potential coin that can give us profit someday, we should invest in it but of course, we should buy on the spot where below moving-average and 50% below RSI.

Let's always play safely on investment because the more we invest, we can lose a lot of it also.

Let's have faith in bitcoin, it already gives a lot of assurance such as the bull run happened in the year of 2017 and 2020-21.

We don’t know the future, and don’t know that bitcoin will reach $41k by then. So when bitcoin dumping in 2018 at a cheap price of $3k, then many of the traders and investors cut lost their money by the time they bought it at a high price. If you know now, bitcoin will rise again, perhaps many of them still hold it. I don’t know if anyone is still holding that long until now and hasn’t sold it. But surely if they still hold it, I’m sure in this ATH, they’ve taken profit.

Yeah, I really appreciate all people who buy more once the price of Bitcoin at the bearish season at the end of 2018. Those people who believe the price of Bitcoin will soar in the next few years and buy many Bitcoin in 2018, must already have big profits now. They know well how the potential of Bitcoin to increase the value in the future. Especially, those people who know the potential Bullrun after the halving Bitcoin, should already plan for the long term investment in that year. Congratulations to all loyal Bitcoin holders.

Patience and Believe is the key of success.

When the price of btc is stable on 10-12k, i already sold my investment because real life necessity forces me to sell everything.

Untill now i still hate my self because of that.

Who knows what will happen in the future so those people who buy bitcoin way back year 2017 have now huge earnings in their wallets especially if they still hold it until now. This is why investing in the long term is such a great idea but there are still some people who keep on pulling it out because of some reasons, such as thinking that bitcoin could go to a lower value and some also because of the current situation on which sometimes they badly needed money.

believe me your not alone mate  ;D ;D ;D

i actually investing in gold but the technique can be applied to bitcoin

simple invest same amount on every month whenever the price up or down (Simple Dollar Cost averaging)

It seems like what you are doing is being done a lot by other people, so you are not alone and there are still many like you at that time. when a pandemic hits the world everyone will do priority scale. Likewise, if at that time he had bitcoin deposits, he would still sell them because the necessities of life required that the best step was done.

Are those who sell out when the pandemic is not as disappointed as you are !! of course disappointed and that's natural but if he does not do he can still enjoy his life? does not guarantee.
so be grateful because life has to go on and can be repeated from the start looking for your bitcoin.


I agree with you, because indeed the journey of life can not go according to plan for many reasons, but if you only blame yourself for actions that you think are wrong are also not good things.

I also invested in gold by purchasing installments in one of the funding company,  that we can deposit whatever and immediately calculated according to the gold price at that time, if there is an increase we will receive a reward.

If you get back and look at the whole image of the price graph you will see that bitcoin is quite successful in the course of time. In just four months Bitcoin quadrupled its price from $10k to $40k. It is the pure example of the success that is made possible by the belief and patience of investors. Small dips made Bitcoin even stronger, it came back from many dips with the support of investors.

Those who has strong hands and investors who has the most patience really had their lives more secure when they had reap the fruit of their sacrifices. The long wait really paid off so I congratulate all hodlers out there that made a lot of profit.

I am a trader as well as a Holder. I have been able to hold Bitcoin for more than 2 years and sell it at ATH 2020 and it requires extra patience and must be sure of the target to be achieved. HOLD's strength is truly extraordinary if you have patience and confidence. Buying at deep prices, of course, will also be very fun and get a lot of benefits. But it's all worth the patience over the past 2 years.
For now I don't hold HOLD for too long and I prefer to do scalping with benefits that can be obtained at any time.

For most people, it would be practical to just hold for years until the bitcoin price increases to thousands of thousands of dollars and that would be a big profit for investors. Or you could sell for short to make a profit in order to invest a higher amount than you could invest in a long term investment. I understand that it just so hard to sell your bitcoin because when the price skyrocket after a few years it just feels like you lose a lot of money even though you make a profit when you sell your bitcoin. It is always like the longer you hold the higher the reward you're going to get.

maybe those who bought when prices fell in 2018 could be a lot and we can be sure of that. but when the pandemic early last year hit the world, maybe not a few had to give up for sale because of urgent needs.
although in the end maybe now regret it but all there must be a priority scale. for those who are still holding back, of course, they will enjoy happy results at this time.


Bitcoin is indeed very profitable when used as a long-term investment because we know that once every 4 years, bitcoin experiences a halving which will experience a reduction in the number and demand is still a lot, so to experience a big increase it will certainly happen by itself.
the longer it became clear that the price would continue to increase, but last year bitcoin made a short-term investment move that was also very profitable for those who could take advantage of it.

damn bro you touched my hearts  :'( :'( :'(. and to all you guys keep up the good work  :D

Don't blame your self, you said it to be a necessity then it is better than starving to death, the only way that I can think of so this kind of things wouldn't happen again is to have another mode of cashflow. I do agree with patience and trust but we also have to be smart about it, remember that being too greedy could the cause of us getting left behind.

do not need to blame yourself because it could be that what you are doing is the best treatment you have to do.
it could be that if you don't do it, you will have even greater difficulties.

true, because all of course there are problems that maybe not everyone knows apart from yourself.
so if it has been done of course it is the best treatment. I can agree with your point that presumably could have another way of cash flow. to be able to control properly.
but everything will also be adjusted to the current situation that we may not know other than himself.

hard to believe because of the very low price, coupled with the negative news on bitcoin, finally everything changed when this year bitcoin set a new record by reaching $ 40k. who bought at $ 3k at that time, and held on until yesterday when the price hit $ 40k, your profit was too big and congratulations.

It takes both strength and faith to hold on believe and wait patiently no one can say when the price of a currency will rise the price of Bitcoin increases depending on the market situation bitcoin has broken its highest record but prices have started falling again. It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post those who held on in 2018 have benefited greatly from the rise in the price of Bitcoin. It is better to hold on to the specified time without being too greedy.

Not just faith and strength, you also need to have a money to stave off your need to cash in you hodl. The only way for people to not sell what they have is for them to not check their wallet everyday and every moment of the day, same goes for checking the prices, it will just give you unnecessary stress on the things that you unknowingly can't control but you believe that you can control. There is nothing wrong that you didn't hodl for a long time, if you believe that it is the time to sell your bitcoin and can see the profit margin is bigger than your initial capital then you already won, we don't know anything but the people who sold at a subjectively regrettable bitcoin price find it as an opportunity to not miss out on the chances.

Hold and believe are just only to those people who have a lot of strength and knowledge also one of the most important is the trust on their invested coin well it depends on the investor or the trader sometimes there are long term traders which are only focusing on the side of the hold and believe also there are some short term trading who just ride to the market movement but if you do not want to always look at the market chart go for the investment in a long term way. Less hassle, no doubts, no emotions and fear about the short dumps.

the current situation is different from the past and now investing is not just long term, but has changed in the short term and has been doing bitcoin since last year.
So whether you want to do manahan with full confidence, of course you need high trust, if you see the situation like now it's not easy to do. I agree with you, must have the feeling not to hesitate to carry out the execution and not be tempted by the circumstances that occur. for if one cannot hold back and panic quickly, then what is believed to be restrained will inevitably be shaken with quick and short movements.

Those who bought in 2018 were among the smartest people in the field of digital currencies and I admire them. I have been familiar with bitcoin for 1 year and I did not know about it at all before, but during this one I have made a good profit for years and maybe someone who enters the market today will have a different life in the next one or two years.

Most of the people they buy bitcoin to HOLD, Now current situation the bitcoin rate reaching 47K Dollars, holding will turn more advantage than for trading.

You didn't know what really happens this year or even last year. You sell your Bitcoin last 2018 because you might in need of money (common reason) or that you think hard dumps will come. But if you are thinking positive and if you have other sources of income that could help you to survive, maybe until now you still holding it.

I know we do for a reason and that we don't need to blame ourselves nor to blame others. There is no perfect time in crypto, all it comes as a big surprise.
Anyway, you are still in the crypto community, you can start over again someday, have patience mate.

HODLing is definitely a very important thing that needs to be learned by everyone. I see cryptos (especially Bitcoin) as really profitable for long-term investments. Bitcoin price reached 48k today which was another insane thing. It stemmed from Tesla's statements about their buying $1.5b worth Bitcoins and investors should be very happy about this change in the price.

Therefore, the importance of investing is using money that we can afford to lose, so when the price of Bitcoin goes down we don't panic. And we don't
have to cut losses our Bitcoin, because as long as we don't sell the Bitcoin we have when the Bitcoin price goes down. So we will not lose anything,
that is actually the key to successful for Bitcoin investment. We have to HODL as long as our sell target has not been reached.

Bitcoin price will keep on rising and nobody knows what is the top price and secondly as when you sell in times of necessity then there are nothing to worry because that was the last resort for anybody and they have to do it in order to move ahead in life. What option currently we have is that start investing now too because 1-2 years down the lane when you would look back later you would not be regretful atleast as price may be much higher than the present value.

BTC price price now has doubled its previous ATH in just two months. holding has never been a bad idea but taking profits is a strategy to have an hedge over unforseen circumstances. for you to hold you need to have patience and much believe in the project so even when dip comes, you will just have to hold.

Surely there are people who are already familiar with bitcoin in the year 2017 that didn't hodl for too long kinda regretted that they did not hodl it up until now. They definitely would have better profit but of course, some have their own goals to achieve and those goals maybe different from the usual. In bitcoin investing there's no too late. you can always start anytime you would like and of course don't give up on your goals.

The feeling of regretful of being in a hurry to sold bitcoin due to huge dumped and now seeing bitcoin soaring high its market value were real. Lucky are those who have saved bitcoin in their hard wallets and those who choose to hodl it and patiently waiting for a bull run because now they are harvesting what they had waited for. The power of hodl and believing were do true, how i really wish that i should save my bitcoin for this moment. Well it'll happened, all i can do was to move on.

The important thing about holding is not to be greedy, but to approach this case wisely. You can always expect that there will be more - eventually the collapse and you’re left with nothing.

A new opportunity may open to you again in the future, just make sure to be ready when the time comes. Accumulate most coins as possible and don't worry if they are just dust of satoshis, because every penny worths here. Many people probably won't believe on these words I said, but fact is that many people didn't believe bitcoin's potential by last year and look where we are now.
And the best part is that bitcoin didn't reach its full potential yet. You just have to be patient and there won't be regrets this time.

everyone doubts bitcoin even some do not believe in bitcoin now they regret seeing bitcoin at a high price and many big infestors have jumped into the world of crypto now that bitcoin is an asset for the future.

If you really want to make cool cash when it comes to cryptocurrency I believe investments is the best way to make money when it comes to cryptocurrency. But when you invest in a coin the price can dump massively and you have to hold it to avoid selling at lost. When the coin you are holding is dumping you don't have to panic you don't have to be scared you can hold the coin and. Wait till the coin bounce back and you are in profit before you can sell it. But make sure you have don't research about the coin you are buying or holding to avoid buying or holding shit coin, but if you are holding bitcoin you can hold for as long as you like.

Believe it or not, bitcoin has become an appealing long-term investment. Overtime it's safe to say Bitcoin has matured. Although there's sill a lot of work to be done to reach mainstream adoption, it already has significant long term value and that itself says a lot about how powerful Bitcoin is.

While price fluctuations are inevitable, I think Bitcoin will remain to be a long-term value overture that will still progress in the long run. Given the rise in BTC price this is undoubtedly a special juncture for all cryptos.

Congrats to these people who made it, you're great!
If I only had a time machine, I would go back in 2010 and invest in Bitcoin... if this happened, then I could already become a billionaire. :-\

But I really think that in 10 years people will say that they regret not buying bitcoin when it was 40k.  ;D

If I were you I would better think about your future opportunities than regret lost chances in your past. Past is gone and you need to accept it. Just imagine your possible profits of Bitcoin investments if you started in December when its price was $20k. Don't think about your past just concentrate on your future. 8)

actually it's never too late if you really want to be able to have bitcoin, I agree with you to continue to collect as many coins as possible and slowly change it little by little to bitcoin. of course it takes time but the important thing is to intend it first.

Remember that the increase in bitcoin is still a long way off, so there is no need to doubt that there will be no opportunity to enjoy the upgrade from bitcoin.
that the doubts during this time with bitcoin began to open everyone's eyes, that finally bitcoin reached a high enough price and could continue to increase again.

You need patience at this point to be able to produce the bitcoin that you desire, because it would be difficult to get 1 bitcoin right away, which is important with the existing patience and tenacity, so we can slowly and gradually finally achieve the goal of being able to have bitcoin.

History as we speak, congrats to bitcoin for making it this far and not loosing most value due to bugs and network issues etc.

I can't really say much more than this, happy to be here I guess  ;D

Thinking about the past will continue to hunt all bitcoin hodlers who sold earlier of course the aftermath of bitcoin price dropping from ATH to $4K in 2017 might be the reason for a lot of dumpers who are having the mindset of that the price will dump again just like a replica of 2017 because what some analysts and speculators said ' History repeat itself" however price had defied all these and pumped to $58K thus hodlers and firm believer of bitcoin had a course to smile and be rewarded for their steadfastness and patience in hodling it in long term.

This right time to buy and hold the bitcoin for the future growth. It any time to hold the Bitcoin price. So befor buy and sell the bitcoin check the market price every time. Then easy to buy and sell the Bitcoin on time. Bitcoin price is good future coin. So hold and buy wait for the price increase. Bitcoin prices is day by day increasing. Bitcoin is connected the people for the sharing the information.

Today, when Bitcoin has reached the price of 56,000, we can see that Bitcoin has reached this price from the downward price that we all thought was going to stay at the same prices. Bitcoin has definitely proved to everyone during this period. What will be the future.
I also really liked your headline and remembered the song: (believe). ;) :D

I think there is no right or wrong time to buy bitcoin. Looking on its historical price graph, I see that everything happens like a stretched spiral. First the price goes down, then it goes back, later it increases. In my opinion, with bitcoin and holding it is always a win situation. All you need to do is to learn how to manage stress when the price goes down and do not rush selling you holdings.

Or you can learn to understand market cycles in order to sell when bitcoin is expensive and buy when everyone is in a panic! It is enough to make several market deals a year to increase the amount of bitcoins in your wallet!

A rule is true until it isn't :D
Sure it can go back like dictated by the cycle theory, it could also go to 40k then to 100k and stay there for over 6 years, no one knows.

I don't think that a lot of people earned that huge amount of interest with bitcoin, imagine if you bought bitcoin at its value of $3000 then I think they would sell it right away once it already reached $15000, I don't think that they could wait for bitcoin to reach $50000 before they sell their bitcoin. Those fortunate persons or those who earned huge income from their work or business could hold bitcoin for a long term but those who don't have a stable job or good earnings from their real-life work would be hard for them to still wait for a huge peak for bitcoin.

No. I think it is just a matter of believe. People hold because they believe that it would be most good and profitable that  to buy early. And it's okay also to sell if you are willing to take profit. Profit is profit. Every person, also me will definitely take profit moreover if I urgently needed some money and might be the one who can help me. Many people decided to take the idea of hold not because they are fortunate but because they have some advantages but they didn't mean all of it. We lived differently and we can of the time always to sell, buy or hold our coin. Just believe in your instincts.

we all will not know why the price of bitcoin can be high like this..is it because of the pandemic that is starting to change the situation,my advice is to sell it when it has a profit of more than 100%,because it will regret that you will get too long to hold.

You can save money you don't care about until the end. But if you constantly keep in mind, if you check in and check every day, you won't earn anything from that money.

the strength to take decisions to hold in the position of market movements, namely we must believe that the position we take is the right position for further movements besides we must be sure we also have to know to predict future market movements to take the right position. :)

Bitcoin is day by day increasing the price. So people believe tha bitcoin. If you hold the paper Money. It never increase the price. But bitcoin is any time to increase and decrease. So people hold the bitcoin and wait for the price increase. If price will be increased that time sell the bitcoin. Bitcoin never lose you. It helpful for the future save.

The power of hold and believe lie upon your personal research from the past experienced. Many of my coins I bought 2018, I nearly sold them out 2020 when the price of bitcoin was increased to $20k that was giving many investors to sold their coins at that particular period because they don't believe that the price of bitcoin will get to $40k. I sold my coins early February 2021, when the price of bitcoin increase to $50k, that was making many investors to start making use of personal research before selling their coins in the market. 

Yes, hold and believe is important to make a profit from cryptocurrency trading.  You need to make sure the project is genuine and you have to believe in that cryptocurrency market and hold that coin.

Investments are always better than savings because most of the people’s savings are in fiat and after 10 years the amount is same but when you buy bitcoins or altcoins the scenario is different you will get your investment double so always choose currency which has fluctuation.

Hodler are always gainer, who hodl his Bitcoin minimum of one year he will be able to make his coin double or sometimes 3x. who trade with his bitcoin instead of holding it there is a more chance to lost his coin if he doesn't have good skill about crypto trading. crypto trading is not just a simple thing, But Hodler who believes that Bitcoin will $100K they will never sell their bitcoin anymore before reaching his target and by doing this they can be millionaires one day.

It depends upon when you invest as it is more important in any financial market, you cannot invest now and expect a 3x profit. The right time was before the halving and if you were smart enough and invested then you would have made a fortune. Holding the coin is always smart but entry is the most important aspect even if you expect the price to rally to $100k.

But those things wont really be easy into that certain or particular time after that post-halving situation where people do have in doubt on buying up on things because

that time the market doesnt give out any signs of bullish movement or potential where everyone would really be hesitant which i cant really blame them off.

For those who do take risk and see it as an opportunity to get cheap coins then they are the ones who had able to benefit out into this current situation we are in.

I did panic sell in 2018 and I wish I never did that.
Anyways time is passed and I can not recuperate my loss it's better to begin again from zero.
You're correct those who purchase the bitcoin in 2018 and hold it tight they're currently rich and making the most of their benefit.
I think it's the incredible illustration of those bitcoin clients who don't care to stand by I realize I am one of them however I learn from my lesson how bitcoins blase you with profit if you hold tight on your investment and never do they panic sell.

I actually really wish that i never give up on bitcoin, still regret that thing so much even until now. When the price went down more, more and more, i think that there will be no hope anymore, and well, that was the end. But i was entirely wrong. Now the price of btc is so freaking amazing. I was super shocked when i knew it, like, i never expect btc to skyrocketed this much!
But well, lesson learned. I will try to learn more about btc, and be more patient. Not gonna lose that chance for the second time. I think that btc will surely have a great future.

I congratulate those who still hold bitcoin from 2018 you are very lucky I know it was so hard to hold bitcoin in 2018 because the price of bitcoin at that time was very low, definitely the desire to let go was very strong but you managed to hold it now you have successfully become a rich person I salute your courage.

Hold is very important for the crypto market, the buying demand effect on bitcoin is macro and is not limited to reaching high value.  Because the market is decentralized, many streams follow emotion and move to the rhythm of the major media.  This is very dangerous without realizing the problem.  Therefore, I suppose not only hold, believe but also perceive and understand the right object to do it.

I think some had to HODL because they bought Bitcoin when it was at its peak at that time, but if they had not withdrawn their Bitcoin and just hodled until this year, the profit they gained is more than what they expected I'm pretty sure now that Bitcoin has reached almost $60k just the first quarter of the year. Now that the price has gone down to around $50k, it is still a profit if you've bought Bitcoin in 2018.

Holding and wait for the time that we can make more profit is the first and basic strategy that we can do to make money, but holding besides of negative things happened in the market  is risky strategy but if the things we are hopping happen, we can make more income by just holding your money and wait until something good happen in the market situation.

Hold with Patience and believe on what you've been studied is good strategy to earn what we expect, because before holding a certain coins in your wallet you need to conduct your own investigation if there is a possibility to make more money if you hold it.

If you are not a trader then you have to be the hodler. Many know that if Bitocin dips then it will recover. If you are hodler then you hold and wait for this event to happen. If you trader you sell at the top and you buy when it dips. Holding saves your time because you do not need to watch graphs all day long. It is also less stressful if you get used to it, you do not regret why did not you sell or buy at the right time. Buy and Hodl!

It is advisable to just buy the dip and hold if you can't handle the market pressure or don't have sufficient time to invest reading charts and updates to trade. I was able to multiply my portfolio up to 3x by just holding all my coins for almost 2 years. I wish I could've started this habit since I started in crypto.

I guess the OP has understood the power of hodling in just 3 months this time rather than years.  :D
Bitcoin and ETH are always for hodlers. We have waited years and we knew a new day will always come after a certain correction. Even a Doge hodlers is celebrating now as the price pumped. The market shook off many of the greedy traders for the past couple of days and hopefully will recover back to where it was in no time. 

Most of us are driven by emotions, not consistent with our reason.  Exactly they follow the crowd without realizing it's temptation.  It causes panic, easily confused by hallucinations.  Mostly, there is not enough knowledge to learn any one of them. :D

Certainly the faith in Bitcoin and the fact that we can resist the speculations that are constantly trying to collapse the crypto market are the basis of Bitcoin's good performance. We need to have faith and when the market is controled from bears we should not start selling out of panic (unless you need money).

Patience and believe working together will surely yield out good income, in March 2020 when the pandemic was really so effective, it affected many companies, financial institutions etc and the price of btc dumped to about $4k many panicked and sold out at that cheap rate but only the long term investors who believes that bitcoin will surely rise so high in the future held their position patiently and currently now bitcoin is above $50k from $4k which it fell to in March 2020, you can actually see that those who held their position has made insane gains

maybe it's not just a matter of courage if you can withstand bitcoin from 2018, what there is is the first disturbance when entering 2020 there is a pandemic and the price of bitcoin is good, obviously this is the toughest challenge compared to 2018.
because the needs during our pandemic cannot be avoided and if we can still hold it, we can be sure that it has no financial impact and is able to withstand it.

of course now as you say, those who still hold bitcoin can already be said to be very lucky millionaires and rarely can enjoy things like this because of the temptation when they are high, they just want to sell. for fear of falling back.

In these days, I'm not yet convinced that holding and having a strong belief would be enough to get profit from all the markets. This seems to be true only for certain (if not only the most popular markets) where the community is strong, like XRP or DOGE. So sometimes selling is not the worst thing :D

Although holding and belief on majority alts is not a good idea but as far as some main stream/popular cryptocurrencies are concerned you can still get handsome amount of profit by just holding and selling it on specific price but not all coins gives you profit. For some alts it is better to get some profit and sell them instead of holding.

Those who do not believe in cryptocurrency will not save it for long.  And that's the big deal for investors.  It can be saved for the future by investing.  And a good profit can be generated in the future.

Selling when panicked will only cost you a loss and that's not very good. The pros and cons of bitcoin have become commonplace. We can see the ups and downs of bitcoin prices and if you want to hold it back, you should focus on the target price you want to achieve.

Always use money that is not needed for life support. Money for holding is preferably free money which is not needed for anything but an investment, it will keep the holding strategy going.

Generally, we don't hold for long time. If we hold for a long time, then it is possible to get good amount of money. In this pandemic situation, bitcoin has already proved that hold and believe matters.

People who bought Bitcoin at Higher price in 2018 and didn't able to sell their bitcoin they are also in decent amount of profit now. They have been rewarded for their patience, In crypto world patience is the key to success and Hodl is the power. If you can't hold your coin for long term and you are started to do daily trading without having proper knowledge then the ultimate result for you is zero, Apparently it may seem that you are making money by doing day trade but ultimately you are busy with making penny when hodler are turning their investment to 5X or 10X.

But if you are in situation on where you do compromise out your survival then it isnt really bad to cash out some portion of those holded funds or coins.
Its up to someone on how long and on when they do secure out their profits since not all would really be having the same level of patience.
For those who havent sold yet and still holding until this very moment in spite of price reaching 57k then thats really some serious level of patience there.
If you are in need then theres no need to back off on selling those.

It's your own assertive opinion but there are people who keeps holding as they believe that there are more that will come along the way, with this pandemic as you mentioned people needs to have quick benefits, all possible venue where they can get something decent to be use for their everyday survival, that's undeniable truth.

Though, it matters if how well you fully understand and what sets of plans do you have while holding whatever assets inside your wallet, it's proven that if you wanted to maximized your profits, patience of holding si the key tool to achieved.

Holding and believe are the ways to achieve something good from your investment. Now that bitcoin is still pumping, is not good to hold bitcoin because any moment from now the price of bitcoin will dump. Many customers has achieved so much profit from bitcoin by using the power of hold and believe to trade their coins in the market.
