as we know today btc is in the range of 28000, and i was very lucky to be able to buy btc when the price was still low, and now if i sell it i have a profit but if i sell it now i'm afraid i won't be able to
buying from the bottom again,, and I'm currently struggling to hold btc so I don't sell it,

I want to ask if you also  keep holding btc?

and the reason I hold btc is because I believe the price of btc in 2024 will be high and there will be no more btc prices like now.

I still hold most of my bitcoins in my wallet. And I don't want to sell it for now. In fact, I just want to continue to do DCA and buy more bitcoins. Currently, the price of bitcoin is still low, which is an advantage for you and me, so you should use it for your benefit. Don't miss this moment because if the price rises above $ 30k, you will surely complain when the price drops again. And it will be useless if you complain because moments like these would have passed.

Yes I am still holding strong and not even thinking about selling any of my coins. Why are so many people now at 28,000 USD thinking about selling now? The price is nothing compared to the ATH, long term bitcoin is going to rise much higher. The inflation in the world is going to push BTC, so is the halving next year. Like you I was buying last year and all my purchases are in the green now. Making small purchases every month was the best approach to get cheap entry prices. In my opinion it makes no sense to sell any coins right now. I will rather keep buying more coins when I have available money to spare. When selling now the risk of missing out on the next big rally would be too big.

I want to provide feedback that is informative, persuasive, and respectful of different viewpoints. First, it's important to recognize that investing in a cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin (BTC), can be a volatile and risky endeavor. The price of BTC has experienced significant fluctuations in the past, and there is no guarantee that its value will continue to increase in the future.



The decision to hold or sell BTC is personal and depends on your financial goals, risk tolerance and market outlook. BTC is a volatile and risky investment. However, if you believe in the long-term potential of BTC and can handle the risks, it may be worth keeping your investment.


It is also important to know that BTC has demonstrated tremendous resilience and growth since its inception in 2009. Many investors and analysts believe that BTC has the potential to become a valuable asset class and a store of value over time.

If you believe in the long-term potential of BTC and have a high risk tolerance, it may be worth keeping your BTC investment in check despite short-term market fluctuations. On the other hand, if you need funds for other purposes or are not comfortable with the current market conditions, it is best to sell some or all of your BTC holdings.

I just want to say that you made the right decision not to sell your bitcoins just for a little profit in a short time. Many people are expecting bitcoin to recover quickly, and bitcoin will enter the bull market soon, I think they may have bought enough bitcoin for themselves, or they have bought too much at a high price. But honestly, I prefer bitcoin drop to a quick recovery because I believe once bitcoin recovers and enters the bull market, that means we will no longer have the opportunity to buy cheap bitcoins. as of now. I don't like buying bitcoin at a high price because the profit won't be greater than when we buy at the lowest possible price.

So far I haven't hesitated to keep collecting Bitcoins every week, even this week I managed to make improvements by adding $500 to Bitcoin which I usually only collect around $50/week for small holders like me, that's enough to be proud of. Trust me, the more you keep your Bitcoins, the less you will want to let them go. Initially, it will definitely be difficult and conflict with needs, but back to the intention, determination, and belief that welcoming the Halving later we will see the highest price that exceeds last year.

What's the rush for. This is only the beginning, you could even say that bitcoin is still below the level, so DCA can still be implemented regardless of the current price.
They could be under again but that's also not really a good reason to sell, we are here indeed maybe partly just to trade but partly it is clear that we are in for a long term investment so the current price is nothing if we look at the ATH expectations before even a new ATH that sooner or later was bound to happen.

If you need the money now, then don't hesitate too much about whether you should sell or not - because you yourself claim that you bought when the price was low. If you don't need money and believe that the price will be even higher next year, then forget about everything for at least one year.

I personally would not sell at this moment if I were only focused on profit, because a few months ago (but also now) is perhaps the best time to invest, given the assumptions that the price will rise significantly next year after the halving. Of course, this is all just speculation and it doesn't have to be like that, so everyone has to decide what to do and at what time.

I believe that the Bitcoin price currently is still low compared to the price it will see by 2024, and diamond hands will hold to see more profit in the next halving. But before the year ends, prices will still go above $30,000. Every Bitcoin investor always has a target price they wish to sell at, but due to market manipulation, they sometimes feel tempted to sell. I just learned that the best way to invest in bitcoin is to use the DCA strategy and also set a certain amount to invest every week or month so that you don't need to invest way too much that you will need to sell at a low price to meet your needs.

For me, I am not certain as to when I will sell my bitcoin, but if I see a stable price and a profit, I believe I will be tempted to sell some of my holding. This is not investment advice.

We only passed first elliot wave so there is more to come in terms of price movement up

If you believe the price of Bitcoin will be high in 2024, start increasing the investment amount from now on. Arrange everything according to plan, never release your assets before the goal is achieved. Bitcoin is still able to rise again to higher prices, historical highs will repeat itself as happened on 20/10/2021 when it touched $65,000.
Buy as much as you can afford, then hold on until the price breaks an all-time high. The cycle of ups and downs will continue to occur, after the correction there will be many surprises that will occur.

The decision to hold or sell depends on the benchmark set by individuals. Some persons might have planned to sell their coin when the price gets to this level because they have reached their profit level. Some other people like me believe that the price will still go higher than the current price, that is why we still need to hold. I have heard some friends state that they will be selling because they feel that the price will crash so that they can buy again and hold until it comes up gain. I have a long-term plan for my investment which means I am not selling anytime soon except if there is an emergency.

Even though we can't predict the next move in the market, we can still analyze the market. As we look at the chart of Btc, you can say that bullish trend is going to take off. When you see a displacement, it only mean that there is a strong buyers or sellers. It should be a sign of strength, and there's a choch or MSbB already, this only mean that the reversal of the trend is already happened. Take a look at the weekly chart since the higher time frame will follow. There's a sign of weakness because the demand is low. In other term, it'll be called as a Distribution. So the possible next move of the market is declining or retracement, before it will continue to go up.

That's why I believe that the price of Bitcoin will possibly break the current ATH in 2024.

I understand your position because you are a beginner and you made a purchase at the right time, which is below the current price, which is 28k, and indeed what you feel is the same as me when you first got to know bitcoin and when the price of bitcoin goes up there will definitely be a desire or question to sell or hold it.
and this incident became an experience for me because these feelings made me make the wrong decision and I sold it, and after selling it it turned out that the price of bitcoin continued to rise and this made me regret it even though at that time I was hesitant to sell it.
and as long as you believe that the price of bitcoin will continue to rise, Hodl is a good choice and aims for the long term because the long term is the best option for bitcoin. And if you can afford or have a steady income, do DCA, as long as it's affordable for you to continue buying piecemeal and Hodl over the long term for bigger profits.

Yes I am also holding my Btc and I am waiting for the bull season. Till then I will strongly hold my Bitcoin and I kept it in a non custodial wallet for security reason. You are right we may not see Btc in this price range again. That's why we must never miss this opportunity to grab Bitcoin in a lower price.

Yup! Still holding my bitcoins for dear life even though the pressure to sell is a little high right now since nobody really knows if this price hike is sustainable or not and people are looking to cash in on most of the profits. Although to be very specific, I am talking about my initial investments that I have saved since my early days in the cryptocurrency industry. However, salary from my freelance work in Web3, and in this forum since I also take up signature campaigns? I cash them out every now and then since I gotta finance myself in some way. But yeah, all in all, except in some circumstances where I specifically would need to purchase something and my on-hand money wouldn't cut the costs, I take a little out of my bitcoin investments, as of now, Nope.

This is a minor profit in comparison to what you anticipate making in 2024. If you don't need the money right away, it's best not to sell now and instead hold on to it for a while. If this is what you intended to do after purchasing your bitcoin, you will make a profit, but it will be relatively small in comparison to what you will make if you hold for a longer period of time.

And you don't have to be afraid to buy now because the price is still low, and it's best to buy now before the price begins to rise for an extended period of time.

The media is making it difficult to hold on a short to mid term perspective. March was full of optimism however after the recent flat-lining of price movement and shaky news such as the recent news of the United States is selling over 41,000 BTC acquired from seizure of Silk Road at various points throughout the year (https://cointelegraph.com/news/us-government-plans-to-sell-41k-bitcoin-connected-to-silk-road). Of course, in the long term with money that you won't need to keep your life afloat...Bitcoin will undoubtedly prosper. The best way to stay strong at this point in time is to only keep what you can afford to keep in Bitcoin for more than 2 years. That way, you are not over leveraging against what you need to get by.

And where to rush?All the most interesting is yet to come, as for me it is now important to wait until 2024 and make a decision there.At least the entire period leading up to the halving will bring us many surprises and it would be foolish not to take advantage of this opportunity.Now is the perfect time to buy Bitcoin, I continue to hold and increase my savings.

You have to think about how to make that decision even though you have gotten a decent profit today but if you sell now then you don't have to regret it later if the price continues to rise, but if you are afraid you can't buy from a low price then just hold your bitcoin with Either way it would be better to continue to accumulate what you have with dollars put into it.

It is a common question, if an investor believes in the potential of bitcoin in the future he will be very brave to hold bitcoin forever, this is because history has proven about the journey of bitcoin.

Well you're right, 2024 is the halving that usually happens, bitcoin will be bullish after that, if you believe in that statement then keep what you have.

There has been a lot of speculation about bitcoin predictions for the next year, even I myself will continue to hold it back.

With this kind of thread, I remember again those newbies around January about telling the price if they were going to sell it as they saw that it was dropping, which others also said to keep buying. You bought around 28k, which means you are just starting out, while others have been holding for a few years, which means they are really strong at holding bitcoin and not selling it. What I mean is that there are still ups and downs in your journey in holding bitcoin. Keep strong and continue to hold it no matter what, as for sure you'll gain profit whenever it drops if you have extra money to purchase some of it.

Do not be afraid mate. You are still not late to add more Bitcoin to your portfolio. This is the perfect time to buy because the price is still low if you have resources.
What's making you to struggle to hold? Remember if you're going through a difficult time, do not hesitate to sell off some portion of your Bitcoin to solve your problem first and then work harder to fill it with more Bitcoin when you regain and refrain from whatever problem you're having. We are saving for future and also to be able to do away with our problems. This is one among the reasons we do make investments. Better days ahead.
This is not really necessary because it has no impact on you. Holding is individual decision.
If 2024 is your target, then hold till then but you should know no one can tell what the Bitcoin price might be next month talk more of next year 2024. We are all just being optimistic however.

You should remember that price growth if Bitcoin is not straight pump. It is a series of pump and dump if you will use a lower time frame on price chart. Your main goal in trading is to get profit. If you are already on your current profit then it’s ok to take it rather regret later if the market start crashing again. There’s no guarantee that price will behave same like last bull run while you have a guarantee profit now on your hand.

I know that this is a dilemma but you should set a goal before you invest so that your mind will be fixed on your target not like this that you are confused on what to do. Asking someone advice on your own trade is an absurd way because you are relying on someone to make a decision for you.

Yeah, I'm in the same boat. It's like the old saying goes, "buy low, sell high, panic later."  :D

But seriously, I think it's important to stick to your strategy and not let emotions dictate your decisions. I was lucky enough to buy much of my BTC when the price was still low. NOw it's hard to resist the temptation to take a profit, but at the end of the day, it's all about making the best decision for yourself and your financial goals.

Yes of course, holding bitcoin is the most important thing one has to do at this time of the economy. But it is not everyone that is hodling bitcoin for now. Some people were planning bro buy BTC when it was very low at the rate 15$ but there was no money to buy so they waved it away from their budget.
A friend of mine and also a colleague in my working place, was planning to buy bitcoin when it comes down to 15$ and when finally BTC comes down to 15$ there was no money to buy it again because of family expenses. And today the guy is regretting why he didn't buy it when it was low. But I told him that it is not too late. If he has money, he should buy it now that is still at 27+$k.

We are still holding and holding it until now, because we've been doing it a long time ago and this is something we often know as long as we hold Bitcoin, looking at market conditions in the middle and end of March Bitcoin did experience a price increase even though it didn't increase significantly. as well as a mild correction, so far we are still very consistent in holding it and holding our Bitcoin assets.

Maybe some other people certainly have a different point of view, maybe for them there are those who are still holding and maybe some are getting a little profit from their investment results, and maybe for those who are investing in early March and in the short term I think they already have some of the profits that March has given them, but this depends on one's achievement targets and one's technicality in investing, of course one's targets will vary

Those who bought BTC in the 16k range are very lucky as it looks impossible to get BTC 16k again.Selling BTC at 28000 thousand now would not be wise at all as the market still has many chances to go higher.This is why the price of Bitcoin may go up by the end of this year or 2024.Some experts are even talking about the price of Bitcoin going up to a 1 million dollars.But I think BTC can go to $100,000 in 2024.In such a situation, Bitcoin should not be sold, but this is an opportunity to invest more in it.Because the bear market is about to end and the bull market is about to start where bitcoin and almost many cryptocurrencies can make a huge profit.In this situation, holding on to yourself would be a good strategy.

It's still my strategy to hold bitcoin and have to be strong holding bitcoin with a long term of 5-10 years is what I'm looking forward to but I don't know how the journey will be later whether I have to make a decision to sell when the bitcoin price reaches ATH or I will continue to hold it this is still a mystery but what will accumulate every week by means of the DCA strategy in the sense that I am still strong enough to hold bitcoin even though as a whole I have been able to sell it now, but I think it is still not good and I can only confirm my financial situation it's still stable enough so it doesn't interfere with the bitcoins you have.

Everyone has a strategy for dealing with the bitcoins they have and that should be their principle of what to do, while I have a decision where I have to be ready to resist the temptation of all the news related to bitcoin including hype, fomo, FUD and bad news. which causes bitcoin to be sold in a hurry, if you want to avoid this, just don't watch any news. lol

Yes, I am still holding, I am still accumulating. I am not even doing it because of the speculation, I am doing it because I already have a strategy in place to keep buying consistently.
The price is a secondary factor. I believe in the bitcoin project, and I know that sooner or later it is going to coexist with other currencies, and it is those who have already stacked up enough in the past that will be highly on the advantageous side. 

Yes, I'm holding btc and will keep on holding it until the right time and price appears in my sight that shall satisfy me and without a doubt be prepare to sell it.

Because of halving, yes.

That's to be expected and we'll need to be more patient until it comes and other speculations are saying that 2025 might be the better year. It's always like that when we come from halving, it appears that the next year becomes the actual bull run.

It is always very difficult to hold but you have to discipline yourself to hold and I always suggest that you have another means of earning so that you do not end up selling and having regrets, I know some individuals very very well that no matter what it is they will hold and that has also been my motivation, I don't think I will be selling my asset that has been trying to accumulate for some time now, am dedicated seen what as happened in the previous markest I also must taste and testify, and that is why I always make it clear to people investing bitcoin don't buy and end up selling, the fact is that bitcoin is a long time investment.

Maintain your patience because you will undoubtedly profit more if you hold your Bitcoin for the long term.
$28k is a small increase compared to Bitcoin's All-Time High, and the market is looking green with a high chance of starting to recover soon, especially since we are all expecting a halving by 2024.

Yes of course I hold Bitcoin because I feel that this is an opportunity for me to get my own Bitcoin after missing out on Bitcoin early investment.

That is our current hope, but will Bitcoin drop after the halving?
I believe Bitcoin is versatile and will gain more global recognition after halving, which will improve its global adoption. As a result, I intend to keep holding my Bitcoin even after halving, because I see Bitcoin as a valuable asset to hold for future sustenance.

I don't intend to sell now,since I have a target price which should come up after bitcoin halving. Sometimes when we are faced with difficulties there will be no other option than to fall back on our investment to help take care of the challenge.

I only sell some part of my investment when it is necessary,I am still accumulating more bitcoin to my investment since the price is still low compare to my expectations. To keep my mind away from my investment,I don't bother checking the price so that I don't get tempted to sell.

You have already made profit from your investment and if you sell some fraction to solve a critical problem, it isn't a bad move. To hold for long,one must be discipline and determined not to sell due to anxiety or panic.

If by "strong holders" you mean those who hold for a long time, then I am not one of them. However, if you mean holding to profit, then I am among them. When sudden dumps occur, I buy Bitcoin and take advantage of the volatility when it is pumped. It's a game of pump and dump, and Bitcoin is unlikely to ever stabilize. As a result, I concentrate on growing my portfolio. Even if it doesn't dump and pump continuously, I don't regret it because I am making a profit by taking risks. If we can't take risks, we'll have to wait a long time for a big bull run to make a profit. Every holder should have a different strategy, and I won't say anyone is wrong. The strategy I'm using may change from time to time.

The main difficulty is identifying the bottom. As a matter of fact, the bottom in the next 6 months could be this exact price we have today or very close to it. It's possible that Bitcoin will never fall below 25000 USD again. What will you do if that happens and you're out? Are you going to be out forever, or will you pay more for the same bitcoin?

If you're struggling it means you've invested more than you should.


I'm holding more bitcoin than I did in 2022 at this time and I'm planning to keep stacking up.
Even if it goes to 30000 now I won't sell anything. It's much easier to hold bitcoin than fiat in case of emergency.

I always remind myself that I'm going to be in bitcoin for a few years and of course the issue of whether or not I'm strong enough to hold is decided by myself although for now I've made a small profit after doing a DCA of $15k but I think that's only a small part of the enjoyment compared to continuing to hold until my target is reached.
Now bitcoin is still in a position where I will continue to do DCA because in this case I also always convince myself that I will buy until the price is around $30k.
There is no rush to bring in profits as this is an asset for my future :)

In my opinion, it's a good step if you still hold your Bitcoin and are not tempted to sell it even though you feel you have got a good profit from Bitcoin, because if you still believe that Bitcoin will potentially be more profitable if you hold it until after the halving, then do it according to your plan and belief.
I think for now on average we are still holding onto our Bitcoins because many of us also want to chase it until a new ATH appears to get maximum profit and maybe sell half of it at that time.
Myself still hold fast to hold it because I have the belief that Bitcoin in the future will be better than the past and present. I personally would stay on hold until I hit a new all-time high ATH.
The most important thing is to be patient, consistent to collect even if little by little before Bitcoin reaches a new ATH which is likely to be higher than the previous ATH.

Well, I am still holding some BTC, I know it will go up in price in the coming years so it would be a waste.  Aside from holding, I am still accumulating BTC little by little.  I always set aside a fraction of my income to my BTC holding address and will sell it once it hit my target price as the price of BTC surge and reaccumulate when the market price retraces or enter the bear market after the bull trend.

Why not?
I am still holding BTC since 2021 when I have BTC at $50k, then it's dropped and still holding until now. I also have some BTC when it's under $20k to add to my portfolio, and this is still holding.
The reason is the same there will be a bullish era someday, and I will hold the BTC at least until the bullish era, or much longer again. No worry to keep holding if we know the risks and the chances.

The time i did able to gain up some bitcoin was on $46k and the price had come down gradually and instead of panic selling, i did make some DCA which means i've been accumulating
while its still decreasing its price.This is why its not really that a bad idea on DCA'ing on going lower prices considering that we arent that blind on what potential does Bitcoin have.
Now the market is starting up to show up some greens then my port is starting out to climb up now. Its up to yours whether you would be holding or not
because in every investment decisions we do have our own will on which decision we would be making.

If you know what you are doing then you won't sell it today, you will wait when the bull market arrives. Don't get tempted with what you saw today since it doesn't compare to what you will gain during the bull run so if I were you I would hodl as long as I could until the bull run show up or there's a new ATH that would surpass the $67k ATH last bull run.

Try to look at the chart and analyze it's bull market on what year and what price they are to consider what is your next move. Bitcoin will be going to the moon next year so extend your patience and HODL! :D

I'm a big believer in Hold Bitcoin, but unfortunately I didn't get the chance to buy large amounts when the price was low because I didn't have enough money, but of course I strongly support Hold Bitcoin.

So far we are in a good buy area so the opportunity is there so far for those who haven't bought bitcoin because we are sure to get ATH in not long, maybe next year at the latest.

I bought Bitcoin below $20k a few months ago and I will definitely be strong enough to hold it long term. I believe that bitcoin will reach a new ATH when the 4th Halving will happen.
That will be the peak that many crypto investors are looking forward to. The current price is still quite cheap when compared to the previous ATH. There is no harm in buying gradually and holding it. I started buying gradually when the market really crashed.

People need to know that bitcoin rewards its holders if they can hold if for long term. These days these exchanges have put us in the mindset that we do future trading, quickly buy and sell bitcoin to gain some money. People have forgotten that instead of trading actively, just holding bitcoin for few years can be more profitable.


You bought bitcoin at almost the lowest price and now all you need to do is to hold it for the next two years. You may sell it in the next bull cycle which shall be near/after the halving.

     If you believe that bitcoin can reach 100k$ each, and you are saving it now you should not sell it. What's the point of selling it now if you believe that bitcoin will be 100k$ in the future?

    As I said, you only need to use common sense, you don't need to be an expert here. Why should you be dazzled by a small income when in the future you can earn a large amount. It's that simple, but from what I see you don't have a time frame when you want to sell the bitcoin you have, which will be your problem and you can blame yourself in the end.

holding bitcoins is each person's right so the decision is in your hands, if you really intend to invest in the long term, I think if you sell it now it's not a good thing.
because the current bitcoin price can still be called cheap.

and I think your decision is very good if you are still struggling to hold bitcoin.
I hope your investment is successful.

It seems we are the same reason. Additionally for me, is because of the upcoming Bitcoin block halving. Because of what I observed and compare all the past Bitcoin block halvings, I can see that Bitcoin is starting to pump before the Bitcoin block halving event started. So for me, I am maybe too early but it's ok as long as I am not late.

You are very lucky to be able to buy btc at very cheap prices
and if you are still holding on until now that is a very good thing.

and I also still hold my bitcoin because I also believe that the price of bitcoin in 2024 will be higher than now.
and indeed it seems that we will find it difficult to find bitcoin prices in 2024 at prices like now.

I really don't see a single reason to sell bitcoin in this moment. We're approximately one year from the halving, bitcoin's value is not even 50% of the ATH, markets are recovering... Of course I could be completely wrong but I would never sell in these conditions. Now I'd rather buy something.

Yes, we are still in the good buy zone, if you missed the opportunity to buy low, don't miss this moment. But I disagree with you that we will hit ATH anytime soon, it won't happen anytime soon. For me, if ATH happens next year, it will be a bit early, not the latest. The halving will happen next April or May, and in the past, bitcoin would hit ATH after a while when the halving occurred, meaning we still have a long way to go. Unless history changes and something unexpected happens.

It is the right decision to keep holding on to the bitcoins that you have, yes, even though the estimated profit has been calculated, it is true, as you said, you will not find the same price as you bought it at that time. I also have bitcoin which I still hold to this day and I have seen how much profit it will be if I sell it because I bought it for under $20k at the time, but I didn't want to sell it because the money I used to invest in bitcoin was extra money that I don't want use it long term, so I just leave it alone.

I also thought maybe I would sell it when the price was best in this cycle, and buy again when there was a decline, so that I could get more bitcoins than I have today.

First of all you did very well to buy and hold bitcoins when the price was low and you didn't sell the bitcoins even after a small price increase. You have undoubtedly shown a lot of patience and have held on to your bitcoins until now. Holding Bitcoin is another good decision as the BTC market is constantly moving upwards. If you are patient you will surely earn good profit.
Bitcoin currently has nothing to do with not holding Bitcoin at such times. Not just me but any user you ask will tell you that they are now holding bitcoins. Because at this time it is clear that holding Bitcoin for some time can make good profit. Because the Bitcoin market is not growing steadily. So if I can hold the amount of bitcoins that I hold for a long time then hopefully I can make a good profit.
Yes, you are right, not only you but many big people who regularly analyze the Bitcoin market have confirmed that by early 2024 the Bitcoin market will rise much higher than the current market and everyone is currently buying and holding Bitcoin.

Yes, am still holding my Bitcoin because the price is about to hit higher for investors to start experiencing bullish market which is the wish of every potential investors to embrace to start releasing their coins to market for profit making. I think, you have made a good decision for not selling your Bitcoin in this current price than to hold for the price to increase higher, so that you will be part of those that will celebrate when the price return back to $40,000 before the end of this month of April. Since the price of Bitcoin is still moving between $27,000 and $28,000 , I think there is hope for long term and short term investors to experience massive pumping in this season.

I think the price of BTC will be higher by the end of 2023. Right now I'm not thinking of anything other than holding BTC.Although I see some gains now, I would still hold till 2024.Bitcoin will enter a bull market soon, so I'm still buying some Bitcoin because it's the best option for long-term Bitcoin.However, some investors are willing to sell at a small profit, and many investors may be selling bitcoins.  They have less patience and I think they will regret it later.We know that when there is a bull run Bitcoin will double the profit compared to the current price.

This topic belongs to the Speculation forum.
You could sell a part of your BTC and HODL the other part. I'm sure that there will be more price drops(probably during the 2023 summer).
The market won't be always bullish or bearish. The current price can't reach 30K USD because many Bitcoiners are selling, instead of buying more or keeping their BTC. I guess that a massive bullish market would come in the late 2024 and early 2025. Let's hope that there won't be any big FUD news and events in 2023 and 2024(like US crypto ban or escalation of the US/Russia conflict).

You obviously bought Bitcoin as a speculative investment and not to use as a currency, so based on that.... people have certain expectations, based on what the Bitcoin price did in the past.

Nobody on this forum can give you a 100% guarantee that you will make a profit on the bitcoins that you have bought, because nobody know what will happen with Bitcoin in the future. A lot of people hope it will repeat the same recovery cycle as in the past, but there are no guarantee for that.

My advice.... hold on to it for as long as you can, because it is better to have bitcoins .. than not having it, when the price goes back to a new all-time-high price.  ;)

While we believe that bitcoin will rise in the long run, it's crucial to set a selling goal as holding onto it indefinitely isn't feasible. Our investment goal is to reap profits, but not having a selling target could lead to panic selling during bear markets and loss. I've learned from past experiences and now adhere to my game plan to avoid being driven by emotions. Being greedy will ultimately lead to disaster.

I'm holding some pieces of bitcoin although I don't panic during the bear season because there's high probability of a pump in when the bull season comes. Presently, I would urged us to bagged more coins during the bear because we might not have good entries when the bull starts. I've made several losses and massive profile from bitcoin, all it needs is fulltime studying and I dedicated most of my time on bitocoin chart. Examine the bull and dump runups of bitcoin, sometimes it hits my SL and I close for the day, most times it do smashed my TP and I also smile for the rest of the day. We know that feeling when our TP are triggered and the profits is gigantic.

Exactly. The best decision is to make your target and works towards them. In the long-term BTC will get higher, then there is no point in being nervous because of short-term fluctuations.

Taking profit is never wrong, but if you don't need money urgently and want more profit, it is better to hold than sell now. There is no guarantee that bitcoin will generate a new ATH after the halving, but history has shown us it has happened 3 times, so this time most likely history will repeat itself, and once a bitcoin investor, we have the right to expect our investment.

I have been diligently accumulating since bitcoin fell below $20k last year, even I hoped bitcoin to drop more this year, but it didn't happen. I don't want the bear market to end anytime soon because once it's over, we'll never have the opportunity to accumulate cheap bitcoins like now.

For me we have not reached very high prices that would trigger me to sell some of my stash so holding the coins with me because once we break $30k barrier the growth chances are there.I am also in long term holding so short gains won't make me sell so just waiting for right time to get my profitable returns and holding strong till the time.

I am a BTC holder but also sell BTC to cover my daily needs from the profits I get from trading. And I'm still trying to hold on to my BTC for a long time to sell it at the next peak price. But I realized that if there was a sudden need and I needed money, I would be fine selling a small portion of my BTC because it was to provide for my family's daily needs. I can hold another BTC until I meet the next peak price to make a big profit.

Of course yes, and you made the best decision OP , it’s the perfect time to buy Bitcoin due to the current price is still under $30K. The more you invest in BTC, the more gain you get but in long term. Regrettably, the market’s condition is unstable. The whales are currently trying so hard to not let Bitcoin reach $30K, it is unfortunate that the market is controlled by them.

To be  honest, everything is possible, we might see another strong pump in the near future. That’s why we should collect and hold bitcoin as long as possible and you will never regret. The king of cryptocurrencies has changed our lives. A lot of us have achieved a lot of goals and made some dreams true. Thanks to this coin.
Let’s keep HODL it and reach the moon together.

Until now, not only do I keep holding it, but I'm still adding investment with the availability of funds that I have, until later at least I will release some when the price is in the previous ATH area, and I will continue to hold the rest until I form a new ATH, and that's also not my plan. selling the whole thing, because I will be holding part of it for the long term, if it crashes again, I will buy it back at a cheap price

That's what I keep thinking all year long, even in 2018 and 2019 people kept prediction ATH, seems like they didn't learn the lesson about Bitcoin, it simply doesn't ATH so soon after last one.

Next year is still too soon, you also don't get ATH so close to halving.

I know patterns shouldn't always repeat but this ATH one is so solid for me.

Depending on the choice of each individual, there are some people who always want to sell it back when the bitcoin price has gone up past the price at the time of buying and there are also some of them who keep holding their bitcoins for several periods, you have decided not to sell the bitcoins that you have now until next year where we know that in that year there was a bitcoin halving event and after this event it is certain that the price of bitcoin will increase significantly so as to provide big profits, especially for the holder. So far, I personally still hold half of my bitcoins and sometimes I sell the rest when it looks profitable.

There are lots of people who were in doubt when the price was about to hit close to $10k and there are lots of negative rumors spreading at that time but the veteran holders ignored it and just continued to hold their bitcoins and the result is so promising because they can now see the fruit of their perseverance and patience. When the price of bitcoins will hit $30k+ I'm sure there will be lots of people who will flock to buy bitcoins because they don't want to be left behind in this great rise of the price once again.

Yeah I still strong holding my BTC, if reaching $28K is enough for me to make profit by investing in Bitcoin, I already sold my coins when Bitcoin was already reach $60K at that time, but I choose to hold until it reach $100K. So my aim is when Bitcoin already reach $100K, I will sell some portion of my coins and consider to hold the rest until it reach higher price.

My tip is, never sell all of your Bitcoin, just left at least 5% of your coins in your wallet. Maybe it will be worth a million or a billion in the future.

The essence of holding bitcoin is to make profits;
The essence of making profits is to live well;
You shouldn't struggle to hold bitcoin;
Only invest and hold what will not affect you;
You shouldn't have bitcoin and not live a comfortable live;
You shouldn't have bitcoin and be indebted;
I mean you shouldn't struggle to hold;
Then there will always be opportunity in the future, bitcoin is motivated ending today.
Invest at your pace and sell when necessary.

My prediction is that Bitcoin will hit new ATH in the next bull season and it's the best time to buy and hold Bitcoin at the cheapest rate. Because bmthe best trading strategy is to buy cheaper. That why I am also holding my Bitcoin and advice is to hold Bitcoin until it pumps hard. Always believe in Bitcoin and keep holding it.

It depends actually on how good you are at trading since I find trading as more profitable than holding and waiting for a long time but the profit depends on how good you are at trading. But if you aren't good enough on trading then consider yourself holding for a long time of your Bitcoin then sell everytime there's a bull run and buyback every dip or bear market.

Can you imagine how long is 4 years when holding your investment? I bet you won't be able to hodl that long without tempted to sell some whenever you see a pump especially if you needed the money.

Anyone who is trading back and forth and knows exactly what he is doing, can definitely profit off the price swings in Bitcoin. This I can say from experience. But this profit margin will be very thin. And compared to the risk of missing out on the pumps, for 99% of people, its not worth it because in the long run they will lose money rather than make it. And those who do not lose money will lose out on Bitcoin profits.

So you have to ask yourself, is that 100 dollar profit worth missing out on buying 0.1 BTC at the bottom prices and having to now buy 0.09 BTC at top prices?

Just want to say that holding and trading both are two different things. We cannot consider a holder who buys BTC at a low price and sells it even if it makes a little profit. But here there are two parts of a holder a short term holder and a long term holder. Short-term holders often act like traders, thinking of selling their bitcoins for getting a little profit. But those who dream far away with BTC are essentially long-term holders who try their best to hold on it.

You are very lucky that you managed to buy bitcoin at a cheap price, unfortunately I did not have time to do it.
Now I have money, but the opportunity is no longer there. And now I am sure that the price will not return to the bottom in the near future.
Now another question is whether it is necessary to buy BTC now, because according to graphical analysis, the situation looks like the price may fly to 35 thousand dollars.

If you believe that the price of Bitcoin will be higher by 2024 then you should keep holding, I have been in crypto for a very long time to be confused by a small price bounce from 17k to 28k, but now I believe I have a better understanding about the crypto market cycle.

The only advice I can give you is to follow your mind, those who worry about their holdings and need to confirm first from other people if they are still holding their assets are new people who are new to Bitcoin investment, this is a normal feeling, but if you invest the money that you are not ready to lose you will be in worries, the fear of losing than money will easily let you make the wrong choice.

If your entry price for Bitcoin was at 17k or 15k you are still in a safe position, because that price looks a lot like the market bottom, although this is still a prediction but the chances that we have already hit the bottom is very high.

As many traders, I believe that bitcoin traders in this cycle will have to be more active traders, buying at every dip and selling a peak, both short term until the new all-time high can be broken. A high price at the moment prevents traders from seeing a parabolic market like in past years. Bitcoin is still the better choice because it has a lower risk than all other cryptocurrencies.

In this actual note, I think I fall under the category of a short term holder although am planning on buying big when that surprise  dip comes again in the bitcoin market. Bitcoin is currently pushing strong this year but something in me just tells me that there is gonna be a dip back to 20k and when that time comes I will have gathered some tangible funds to buy big and change my investment preference from short term to long term holder.

If you don't have any pressing need or emergency to use the money from the sale of your BTC, please resist the urge of selling now. Don't sell for the mere sake of selling or trying to check your trading skills. You may not be able to buy back cheap. Instead of selling, buy more on DCA if you can afford it. This incoming bull rally will frog jump Bitcoin to over $120k if we should rely on the mathematical derivation from past data. It's common knowledge that every preceding ATH more than doubled the past one. The current ATH is $69k. Now do the maths and we expect a new ATH to happen between 2024 and 2025. So, brace up.

I am holding bitcoin of course, anybody who isn’t is taking a big risk. Playing with alts is risky, if you have no bitcoin exposure it’s financial suicide. The world economy is on its ass, bitcoin is your life belt, ignore it at your peril.

Everybody should be storing a % of their wealth in bitcoin long term. Staying too deep in $ & random alts is a risk I am not willing to take.

I'll  keep holding my BTC 'cause why not? I trust bitcoin since it's long term and I trust my whole life on it lol and I have some money in case there's a emergency, I don't have to think sell my bitcoin since i have extra. Just don't buy all your money in BTC, it's a long term and all you have to do is trust the BTC and something good will happen :>

Just withdrew a fraction but still holding a major part as am optimistic about what an intrinsic bull awaits us by the end of the year 2023 and just in case should  uncertainty sets in affecting market price I'll still hold on to my resolve of holding for more long term and do a DCA when necessary. If there's any coin I trust when it comes to reliability and validity then it's no other than bitcoin and history has proven that.

I'm doing DCA right now and I'm pretty proud with the results given for every investment I make, sure it takes time since it's for long-term investment and for now I think this type of holding is really suit for me because I don't need to think that hard just to wait the "best" time to buy, I can pretty much buy anytime I want without thinking of price and wait for the rise in the future.

This is wrong. Sure 2024 is Bitcoin halving but still we don't know if the price will be up or not during that halving, but to be sure Bitcoin can reach another price anytime in the future.

thank you for the advice and replies you gave me, and I see that there are lots of people holding bitcoins like me, and to be honest, if I have extra money, I will set aside my money to buy bitcoins and I will use the DCA system.

I wish all of us success together in investing in bitcoin.

i dont hold any btc right now, because im already losing in trade but i wish i can buy btc little by little start from this year.
if i hold btc right now, i will also hold it and not sell it, dump will be temporary but in the long run btc wiil still raise up.

I am also a strong supporter of Bitcoin, and firmly believe that it is a digital gold & can potentially change our fortune. In order to maximize the benefits of Bitcoin, we should  continue accumulating it during the bear market by taking advantage of every significant dip, and continue holding it during the bear cycle, no matter how lengthy the bear cycle may be,  but eventually it will come to an end, and you will reap the huge reward on your investment.

Right now that its market value is near to a new market price resistance, I think it is no longer surprising that many people are holding and are even putting more on Bitcoin, because of profit potential. Not only with Bitcoin but also with other cryptocurrencies which are reaching ceilings nowadays. Problem is sudden price downfalls which could result into huge loss especially if investors won't be able to handle the risk of not selling thru declines. We are not yet sure of how much its market price could reach before this year end or even with the following months and that includes possible price correction so better be careful still for those who are holding.

If there's an asset in the world and in the crypto market that shall be held by everybody, that's bitcoin and it's a yes for me.

You should state what makes you think that by next year the price of Bitcoin will increase. But I think it is no longer a secret why everyone thinks that it will increase by 2024-2025. We're going through the cycle and the most awaited thing every 4 years will happen by 2024.
As you've said that there might not be the same price for Bitcoin in the next years as it is right now, well, that might come to be true. The price of BTC is bound to get up and higher soon as demand rises and thanks to it having a limited supply.

I am still holding Bitcoin and this is because I am into it for long-term investment, either it has doubled the amount I bought it and is not yet time to sell, I won't sell

1000% still holding. Bitcoin is one of the rarest coins in history and to not have any at all is foolish! Hold on to them for dear life, don't let go unless you absolutely have to. Time will reward you

You seem to be torn over taking a choice between being an investor or a trader, it is true that if you sell your coins now you could obtain some profits but this is not the attitude of an investor, if you want to be an investor then you need to hold your coins for at least a few years before you even consider selling.

So no one can really take the decision for you, you need to think about this and decide which path suits you best, if you are attracted to the idea of making profits as fast as possible and you are not afraid of reading many books about trading then maybe this is the path you should take, but if you are not ready to make that commitment and you can wait for years to obtain profits, maybe becoming an investor is better for you.

   -  If you believe that it will go up, there is no reason for you to sell it, even though I play at 28k$ more than the value of bitcoin,
I still buy it and hold until it reaches 100k$ each.

If you sell it now, you will really feel regret and if you feel like this it is a sign that you should not sell, it is that simple to do. Because it's not time to do that if you've only grown a little.

If you already know that BTC will bounce back in the long term, you shouldn't use them to seek short-term profits. But it's not too late for those who don't have bitcoin yet, I believe this year is still a good time to accumulate rather than make a profit. You should accumulate immediately, and if you cannot make money from trading, stay away from it and just hold.

I prefer holding to day trading because trading is not easy and not always profitable while bitcoin is getting scarcer and harder to buy.

I believe that now we are reaching the point where it will be difficult to buy, I'm talking about those who did not buy all this time and were waiting for a favorable time, who were waiting for bitcoin to fall even lower to the new bottom. At some point, growth began and many simply waited for the price to start falling again, but if the price now goes above 30k and fixes there, but there is a possibility that we will go further up, this will mean that the best time to buy has been missed.

But there is also a possibility that we will see a local correction. I understand how difficult it is to wait for one favorable moment to buy, it is almost impossible to catch it, so DCA will always be the best strategy. And if you have bitcoin, then there is no point in selling it now, you understand this well.

But in practice, holding is an option that can make you more depressed because of unfavorable market conditions.
When the market starts to crash and you're just holding, you'll miss out on a lot of buying opportunities.
Make sure you hold well, but you also have the funds to buy back.
It is a good strategy to implement and further add to the Bitcoin assets held.

It is a choice, you may only be interested in holding bitcoins for the long term as the risk of loss is less and the timeframe depends on the target to be achieved.

Some people who day trade also have reasons why they do it. Day trading may be more effective for making profits quickly, by taking advantage of any price fluctuations that occur and taking advantage of each order placed. This requires good technical and fundamental analysis knowledge and strong psychology to make choices on each trade made.

So long-term holding or day trading is equally profitable, but it depends on each person's ability.

Definitely although I don't have a lot of bitcoin saved right now because as of right now, I don't have the means to increase it, maybe after my first payday I might be able to increase what I am hodling right now. If you believe that bitcoin would go much higher in the future then you might want to consider hodling rather than selling right now but the choice is yours, you've said it already that you are getting a good profit if you sell right now.

I will not blame those who don't have it until now. There can be some real life situations that they're dealing with and that gives them hard time in owning even a few sats of it. But it's true that it's one of the rarest and the best performing assets in the world and if not, one of the best.

Not just about the reward that we'll get from holding it but also the lessons that bitcoin had taught us like being patient.

Don't trade, just hold it and sell when the profit is more than the capital that you've used for it. As you've said that you'll just eventually have to sell it but choose the right price and time.

I have bought about $300 bitcoin since December 2022 and January 2023 and I am still hodling them for a very long period of time. If you want to enjoy bitcoin, you have to endure and hold it for a long period of time and not for a short time. If you are a bitcoin investor and you not holding the bitcoins for long term and just for short period then you are not yet fully ready for the investment. And the best time buy bitcoin is the time when the bear is still down so that when the price rises up to your satisfaction then you market it out and make your profit from it. That is why it is called investment. In the bitcoin holding world patient is the answer. If you not good endurance then you are not qualified to hodle bitcoin. Bitcoin is not something rise up to the peak overnight.

Many people in the world still don't have bitcoins, and they are still rich and even have a better life than you and me. So just because someone doesn't hold bitcoin doesn't mean they are stupid, they are stupid, but they are richer than smart people who have nothing in their hands and go to work every day. And I find it even more stupid to hold bitcoin for life, bitcoin is just money, and only when used does it create value.

I bought when it was much higher. Of course I hold

This proves that there are different circumstances that happened for you to hold your investment. I think, there should always be a target that should be reached so that you will have a clear track on what to do, and you don't have those idea of selling it. But, situations really vary so that it is really hard to predicts what could happen. I think what we can to is just stood up to your decisions. At the end of the day, you can learn something from it.


This is true since holding bitcoin for long term has been proven to be profitable and a good investment. I think there is a great potential on this cryptocurrency as we move forward to a more digital future. It is given that cryptos are very volatile which is good in terms of long term holding since it could yield to higher profit. I agree that you should always plan all your financial situations and assess everything that could happen even the worst things that could happen.

Of course I still hold it. even I still continue to buy it regularly. because for me investing in Bitcoin is not only until the halving period next year but I seem to be planning to hold on much longer, namely up to more than 5 years from now. maybe 10 years is what I would plan for. but my plans may change according to what will happen to this industry in the future or some other factors. but what is clear is that I am paying in installments little by little so that it doesn't interfere with my financial flow.

To be fair, yes you could now earn a profit when you sell your Bitcoin at this point around 28k if you buy from the low it's already a good profit depending on how much you invested. But there are probably a lot more opportunities to sell your bitcoin, remember that bitcoin halving is next year, and the all-time high was still so far from today's price.

I believed in Bitcoin and I'm still holding my Bitcoin even though I sell a lot of it on the last bull run, I bought and accumulate when the market price drops down, and I would continue to hold it until the Bullrun maybe when the all-time high is reach or maybe even more around 100k. I mean it's easy to hold in my opinion you just need to have a liquidated fund or fiat funds that you could spend, You wouldn't really sell your Bitcoin when you don't really need money. Most members would probably suggest not to sell your Bitcoin because it's still early and you still have time to accumulate more Bitcoin.

It is good that you are still holding it, mate. It is too early if we sell our Bitcoin now, we must wait for the bullrun/bullish season at least. Most people must prefer to hold now, there is no big reason to sell at the current price. Anyway, it depends on you to hold more 5-10 years but I won't do it for my Bitcoin. After the next bullrun/bullish season, the price of Bitcoin will drop significantly again and we can buy again at that time. So, during the next bullrun, we can get bigger funds if we sell our Bitcoin. Then, in the next bearish season, we can buy more Bitcoins for the next long-term holding.

This question depends on your reason for engaging in Bitcoin transaction
If you are an investor you should definitely hold your Bitcoin as it is valued higher over longer periods of time unlike someone who buys Bitcoin for just Normal daily transactions you would not expect to hold their Bitcoin.

I am hodling some, and I have some stable coins with which I do DCA to keep a steady value. I sometime sell some from my hodlings if I see some major movements. But it isn't every time. Because I don't want to take that kind of risk in which the value will decrease what I have made and worked for so long. If I am hodling and the price goes down, I know that it will bounce back at some point. But the amount of Bitcoin (not the value in USD) shouldn't decrease. I try to increase it because in the long run, it will be the thing which will give me the best profit.

Holding Bitcoin so good and being it investor without panicking of what would happen if the market goes down. Bitcoin is not stable like the us dollar that the price is always stable. It is volatile and making people need to know this so that they can be prepared to study the market and know when they will buy more or sell there holdings to make more profits.

I think that's a good idea, and apparently you are very experienced in investing in BTC, indeed if we hold BTC for a long time it has the potential to make big profits, but of course it's not free from risk, because the BTC price could drop in the future.

yes, I also still like to buy btc if there is idle money.

It depends on each person's goals. If it were me, I wouldn't hold on for too long because as you said, the future is unpredictable and bitcoin may fall in the future, not rise forever as we think. Instead of holding for 10 years, I would sell my bitcoin during the next bull season, then I would buy it back when the bull season ends and the bear season comes. That way I will be both profitable and safe for myself, and also a way to increase bitcoin holdings if someone knows how to take advantage.

If I read your post you have bought BTC at an affordable price then I think just wait and the important thing is you should avoid unnecessary mistakes this time. Well, before that, what are the real choices that are in your mind right now. because if you intend to invest in Bitcoin for the long term, you don't have to sit at the computer to keep monitoring real-time charts and prices. since your intention is that you are indeed HODL, not going to sell Bitcoin, so what's the point of keeping track of the price?

So. If you intend to invest in Bitcoin for short term goals, be prepared to sit in front of your computer desk for hours watching the price every minute observing and calculating if it's time to sell your Bitcoin quickly. Yes. The world of Bitcoin is full of stories of incredible success and catastrophic failure if one misstep occurs.

Yes that's right. For long-term bitcoin investments, we don't need to monitor bitcoin price movements, we just need to be patient and sell bitcoins when the price target is reached, for example, we have a target price of $100,000. What we need to do is hold on until the target price is reached. So far, bitcoin has always hit new ATH peaks, so $100,000 is a logical target


Carrying out trading activities on bitcoin requires accurate analysis and the need to monitor every price movement so that we can benefit from shifts in bitcoin prices. I think it's harder than holding bitcoins for a long time. But this is one way to get daily profit from bitcoin. But if you don't have the skills, long-term bitcoin investing is the right choice and doesn't require much analysis.

Holding a Bitcoin for a long time is totally worth it, especially if you hold a considerable amount of money that the price of your Bitcoin might be doubled or tripled in the next 3 years. While if you only hold a small amount of Bitcoin, it will take long for you to be satisfied with your investment.

As for me, I will only be holding a bitcoin on the amount that I can only afford to lose because the price of Bitcoin is still volatile, and my daily needs are my top priority. Holding btc really depends on your situation and circumstances.

Investment decisions must be based on a solid understanding of financial markets and proper risk management. We know that Bitcoin is known for its volatility, which means that its price can experience significant fluctuations in a short period of time. For my part as a BTC investor I decided to hold for the long term just like you, I know that others choose to sell and make a profit when the price reaches levels that they consider favorable, but I have always seen Bitcoin as a long term. I am aware of the risks of my investment, but I am prepared for whatever... No one can predict with certainty what the price of Bitcoin will be in the future, and there is always the possibility of financial loss if the markets move only one direction . unfavorable. But there is still a high probability that its price will be very high, so it depends on how long you think you can keep your money in Bitcoin… In the meantime, I will enjoy the panorama.

No investment is without risk. Any platform for investing is risky. But when analyzing the level of risk, I think the risk in Bitcoin is very low compared to other currencies. Where by investing you can get back your money profitably after a long period of time but that is not possible in any other currency. I bought some altcoins in 2021, some of them have no existence in the market and some of have no trading volume. But the bottom line is that no other currency can compare with Bitcoin. Bitcoin is different in every way. Bitcoin is unique as the only decentralized asset in the cryptocurrency world.

Yes of course, I am also still holding bitcoin strongly. And the amount of this holding is gradually increasing. But my reason for holding Bitcoin is slightly different than yours.
I'm basically holding this bitcoin not just for the next halving or bull season. I basically want to gradually grow my funds over the next two bitcoin halving seasons. And so my current strategy is to buy only $10 worth of bitcoins every week from my income, and I hope that without any emergency or danger situation it will not stop until the strategy is completed. The main purpose behind my holding is to see the results after the last two halvings. I would like to see this Bitcoin rise to more  highs.

This is a good time for us to hold Bitcoin now that we have been hearing about the market bull coming up soon. If we can buy more Bitcoin and hold now, we might be fortunate to make huge profits from the market now that we are still patiently expecting the bull that is coming soon. When we are holding Bitcoin or altcoins, it will be a good idea if we can analyze the market and check when possible the bull market is going to commence.

 Investing in Bitcoin is a risky attempt buy if we know that rate of risk we are taking and we are sure that it's not going to affect us, then we can invest any amount that we want in the market and wait for when the price of Bitcoin is going appreciate so we can earn from profits depending on the value of Bitcoin we have in our wallet.

As inflation have hit hard around the world, it is good to hold in terms of bitcoin than holding in the form of traditional fiat. With every investment there is risk and it is upto the user how he had understood the market and makes decisions. Bitcoin have got its own identity as it grow of its own without much of dependence. In recent years the market have come closer with the traditional market.

Although it's your decision to sell, but since this year, there's really not been any tempting price to sell Bitcoin. Judging by the close Price before the last ATH, the Bitcoin price has not yet done any better this year, so it's still wise if you hold tight to your portfolio and keep accumulating like you said you have been doing. Also, another thing you can do is have a targeted price at which you wish to sell your coin, and when the price has increased to your target, you can sell. By doing so, it will help you avoid an unplanned sale of your coin. You know that the difference between a holder and a trader is that the trader is always in search of a short-term profit and might even sell at the wrong timing, but a holder always has a target, and until the target is reached, they don't sell.

Are you sure it's better to hold bitcoins than fiat in times of inflation? I doubt about that. I think that's not really true, if you hold USD or some developed country currency instead of bitcoin, you will avoid a significant loss. Because in the inflation cycle in 2022, bitcoin was dumped from 69,000 USD to 15 thousand USD while the currencies of other countries only decreased from 1 to 2%, even the USD rose to record highs during the inflationary period. I mean here, in the long run, I will agree with you that bitcoin is more suitable to hold than fiat money for us to hedge against inflation, but in the short term, I really doubt bitcoin's ability.

I will definitely buy and hold bitcoins for a long time which will give me a good profit. I bought bitcoin when the price of bitcoin was only $23k dollars. And I've been holding on to Bitcoin ever since I currently have a profit but haven't sold it I've kept it for the future. The position that the bitcoin market is in right now will surely take a better position and the price of bitcoin will reach the highest level. Various experts have researched that the price of Bitcoin could see a huge pump going into 2024. So I will sell my bitcoin holdings for long term when the bitcoin price is $100k.

Don't trust the experts, do your own research and make your own judgment about bitcoin. Like you and other investors, I always believe and expect bitcoin to hit $100k in the next bull season but I predict that won't happen in 2024 but maybe in 2025 or 2026. I don't believe what the experts say because they are doing their job to try to manipulate market sentiment and they are paid to do it. You are right to keep holding your bitcoins but do your own research, but don't trust anyone or listen to anyone, especially the experts on social media.

Everyone is much expecting the bull run because the BTC you have accumulated will determine the amount of money you will be able to get as profits during this time but unlike some other folks I think I will sell off all my coins after the bull run and wait just like you for the bear season to come because after BTC reach a new ATH because that's what am speculating, it will eventually drop back to some significant digit and that's when I start my buying of coins back. I intend on using the profits I will gather from my investment to start up something else for myself to atleast feel joy that I actually did something hood with my bitcoin money ;D

Well so do I maybe there will be some changes in my investment plans. Because after being bullish it is also common for bearish to occur again. And it keeps repeating. And I might also be tempted to sell when the bull market is at its peak. But what is clear is that now is not the right time to sell. Because I feel that it is precisely the Bull market that is just about to start. We see bitcoin price in the 29-30 area so strong in holding back the sellers. Every time there is a big sale, it is always followed by a big purchase. So I still don't hesitate to keep buying from this area. Maybe the price could just fall back to 28 or less. but it doesn't matter. As long as I still have money to buy. So when there is a dips I just need to buy back from the dips.

Of course I will hold the bitcoins. Will anyone want to sell bitcoin easily? It is a profitable currency. Bitcoin is better than other currencies. The current Bitcoin price is expected to increase further in the future. Those who bought bitcoin earlier at a lower price than the current price would be a fool to sell now. Many will sell their bitcoins in fear again if the price of bitcoins falls again. I would tell them to hold on and the price of Bitcoin will increase.

i suggest don't be too sure in 2024 BTC will have a bullrun, it could happen more than that year or it could even happen this year, no one knows about it. I'm worried that if we expect it in 2024, and if it doesn't happen, then we will feel frustrated and end up hurting ourselves. but i agree with you its better to hold, because we don't know if we can buy at a lower price after this, hold until the bullrun comes, and that's when i think the best time to let it go.

What we should know BTC long term holders (LTH) now control 75% of the total circulating BTC supply. So, the question is: Who Are They and Why Does It Matter? They are one of the two main segments of the Bitcoin Market, with the other segment being short-term holders (STH), which includes holders who bought at past lows. Long-term holders continue to pile up and this is a positive sign for the BTC asset.

This is why we are also required to at least follow in their footsteps even though the benefits of HODL will only appear in the long term.

What a bull-ieveable tale this is! Your approach appears to be to ride the bull, hang tight, and seize the dips with unwavering confidence in Bitcoin. I just hope you're not becoming a Bitcoin addict and spending all of your time poring at the charts.

Bitcoin investments shouldn't be made in the same way a compulsive gambler doubles down constantly. Diversification is not merely a catchy phrase created to baffle inexperienced investors. It goes against a fundamental concept to put all your eggs in one basket. After all, would you rather be the Titanic or the lifeboat if Bitcoin were a ship?

I was buying it for more than 3 years and still haven't sold any. And I don't see any reason to do that anytime soon. We've seen it almost at $70k, I don't think that is the top for Bitcoin.

indeed we will not know what will happen in 2024 because btc price movements are very difficult to predict, but it seems op is very lucky because he can buy btc at low prices, and it looks like op
made the right decision as it looks like he will hold firm on his btc. hopefully op investment and we all benefit.

You have to apply several strategies to the bitcoin holdings that you have and the ultimate goal is to collect as many as possible to get big profits. If you don't have a strategy to increase the amount of bitcoin ownership, the investment you are making will not grow. Your budget can determine the amount of bitcoin holdings and when you don't have a lot of money then what strategy you need to employ.

Holding will always be profitable for the investments we make and who can survive by continuing to hold them, they will get a profit in accordance with the amount of ownership they have. Make sure you keep trying to collect and hold until bitcoin reaches the next ATH.

Whenever talking about cryptocurrencies, what everyone is targeting is bitcoin. Holding bitcoins is far more profitable than holding other coins and for many reasons bitcoin is one of the best in the crypto space.

We have to take risk to invest. If we don't take risk, the chances of profit from investing will be very low. We always have to find the right coins to invest and then invest. Now if we invest in wrong coin and wait for long time.  There will be no profit but our money will slowly disappear.  We always have to choose good coins. If we want to be successful by investing, we have to choose altcoins along with Bitcoin. After that, we have to invest for a long time, then maybe there will be a possibility of profit.

Never sell if you have bitcoins as long as you haven't reached the target, because in the long term as long as you have strong faith and patience your wish will surely be achieved.
Bitcoin will achieve more than you say if you stick with it after it reaches the price you say it is, and if you only want to take some of your profits, that's a good job. And you just use it to enjoy the benefits, and still have bitcoins to reach your next destination because the next price is around 100k or so.

I try to add as much as I can to my hodling portfolio. But there are some times when you are forced to sell in order to solve the problem. In cases like this, I always try to sell as less as I can. Keeping the cost to a minimum. It is better to use what you have in hand rather than take a loan. As soon as you are in debt, it becomes a cycle. You keep on taking loans in order to pay the first one. This happens when you are not earning enough or more than enough. I don't wanna get caught in that. I would rather use what is mine. I can always fill up my bags again when the time is right.

You can never be in a bad time while investing in Bitcoin. So as long as I keep adding to my portfolio, I think I am good. I am still hodling and plan to hodl till the upcoming bull run. So let's hope I don't get caught into some situations where I would have to sell again.

I am strong hodling my BTC yes. Will only sell in case of critical issue in life. Other than that, I keep buying monthly or some such and hodling it util one day we can finally use it everywhere without concerns about using it and being targetted by states or police or whatever.
From what we have been observing, about CBDCs, they will try exactly the opposite that Bitcoin offers. Total control over the population!

Let's say it depends on what kind of loan you're getting: I know people who get into troubles because they buy cars they can't afford and they can't keep up with the monthly payments, that is something just plain stupid to do. Or people who have thousands and thousands of dollars of debts because they buy too many clothes and shoes, again, that is just plain stupid because are unnecessary things. If you get a decent loan to buy a house it's a different story. The important question is: what do you need this loan for? Is it something absolutely necessary? Or is it something that will make you happy for a few weeks and then you'll forget about it?

Great man keep holding till bitcoin reach $100k. And keep buying bitcoins following DCA it can make you rich after long time  However, there are many smart hackers trying to hack Bitcoins, so be sure to use a non-custodial wallet or hardware wallet to hold Bitcoins and keep access to your Bitcoins completely to yourself.  Remember not your key not your Bitcoin. good luck man. i am also trying to hold bitcoins Because now bitcoin price is very low according the last ATH

so you are planning a Bitcoin investment that you hold until now to reserve funds? that's very good. some people might think like you. but it's possible that there are more of those holding Bitcoin right now (especially new investors) thinking about turning a profit in the next bull season.

since you have a plan to use it when it's critical, it's possible that when you really need it Bitcoin isn't a good price. but if you continue to increase the amount every month, that means you continue to increase the value of your investment. surely you will not worry about such a situation.

That means you haven't seen a real Bitcoin rally yet. It's normal to hodl onto that BTC for you. Bitcoin teach everyone this rule, never sell your coins at loss.
The real test will be in the next rally. You'll be upset or happy based on what price you sell your BTC. It's better to split your Bitcoin investment into two groups. In one group, store them in cold wallet and never sell until the time comes (10-20 years plan). In another group collect BTC in bear market and try to sell them at the top in big rally time. That way you can accumulate more coins in the long run. And never mix up these two groups. Don't sell all your coins at once or don't hodl all your coins and miss a rally.

Yes, that is the idea. Accumulate the most Bitcoin I can, while I'm alive. Then, someone will have to take over. And I'm in Bitcoin since late 2018, so, I'm aware of most good practices when it comes to safety such as the fact you mention about keys and non-custodial wallets! I'm kinda old school and usually I do my transactions by hand. And I have my own plan to save my PKs, so, I think I'm more or less safe regarding safety!

This is a great idea,and I also love the idea. accumulating as much as you can in a bear market and selling in a bull run, you sell and make some profits. But as for someone who doesn't have the uses for money, he or she can keep holding and continue buying because selling something and trying to time market something is not advised because some may not get the opportunity to buy at a lower price unless you are type that are always good in timing market. As for me, who has a selling target on Bitcoin investment, if the price of Bitcoin does not clock my selling target, even if I see that may some profit in next bull run, I will not sell. I would rather continue accumulating.

This has to be an extreme situation for me to get a loan. But when I sell from my hodling bags, I only do it in situations when it is serious or in some cases extreme. For example, it is a health issue, accident, something you can't live without for a single day, or some devices like smartphone or computer is dead and you need it immediately. I keep a budget from my monthly costs. When I cover up every expense and put the rest of the money in a saving account or in a Bitcoin hodling wallet. Now I am left with something you can call pocket money. But sudden situations may come one day and in that situation, I don't want to take a loan. Not loan but what I try to say is borrowing. Maybe from a bank or some individual.

In cases like this, I may sell some of my hodling. Rather than that, I am good with hodling.

I'm not waiting for any bull seasons. I just keep buying no matter the price.  And I will only seel if I have a situation of life and death that I really need to dump all my Bitcoin. But that is an extreme situation, for sure. I hope that day never comes and I can keep accumulating calmly over the years, until Bitcoin adoption is high enough that we can use it, like in a daily basis or so!

In the current moment we live in, today is the best time to buy regardless of its price, even values above the last ATH will always be a good time.

 People always want to buy low and the price starts to go down like now and they want it to go down more, when they should buy.

 Even with a dream price, say 6 figures high, it's always a good time to buy, it's the game of commerce.

You're right. That's why I include long term investing in bitcoin only for the long term. So I don't have to worry too much about graphics. Looking at charts and chart lines on the market is only useful for those who are day traders who must always be able to get small pieces (small profits) from market movements. That's why I do DCA because I only buy and buy when there is a downturn. And of course using only cold money. I usually only use leftover money or bonus money from work.
You It is true that we should avoid investing in compulsive ways of thinking. Because investing must be careful and full of calculations before entering and getting involved and it is not good to invest that involves too many excessive emotions.

Since Bitcoin still in downtrend its very good ideas keep accumulate as how much bitcoin you can, I have adopted this your ideas when spending few percent of my salary and invested in Bitcoin regarding price still drop based on ALL TIME HIGH of Bitcoin price. Its not matter where are the place for saving Bitcoin fund but you look as long term investment and worth when holding in non-custodial wallets, but my Bitcoin accumulate in daily day too small and I used exchange market to make easy when transaction or purchasing fund to buy Bitcoin, but we have the same target holding as long possible and selling Bitcoin with another all time high at the future.
I have target in next few months later my salary grow up and get higher chance for accumulated bitcoin with bigger fund, right now spent about 20$ to $30 in daily day for accumulating bitcoin as my investment assets for the future.

I'm not sure I understood. You are using exchanges to buy Bitcoin, right? Well, my only advice is that you take that Bitcoin out of the exchange regularly. Don't accumulate too much in any exchange. Also, if you learn how to do it on your own, is a learning curve that pays out in the future. And it's always grateful to know more and more about Bitcoin and all the system around it!

And if you're spending $20 to $30 daily, that's very very good amount at the end of the month. I cannot buy that much. But it doesn't matter. Each one of us buy what we can buy! That's all we need!

Everyone should have their own plan of action and move according to their capabilities, the most important thing is to be consistent. Everything that is done with some kind of tension cannot last for a long time, and everything that we do in a measured mode can become a marathon that everyone can go through.

It is possible for some time to strive for aggressive investment, as in the period when bitcoin was worth less than 20k, but at the same time I had an understanding that this was a temporary opportunity that I needed to use. And besides that, we must remember that when the bull market comes, we will get a good profit for our efforts, so everything is in our hands.

Bitcoin is best coin in the cryptocurrency market. In 2021 Bitcoin price hit $69k. And from that bitcoin price come back $15k. And now Bitcoin price is $28k. But i am Buying bitcoin when bitcoin price was $40k and i did DCA. Now my total buying price near about $26k. Now i am still profited. I want to hold it till $100k. Regularly i am buying Bitcoin. If anyone invest on bitcoin now it will be very profitable for hin need only holding. I want to established myself from bitcoin. So now i am still holding Bitcoin.

I believe that the price of Bitcoin will rise several times more, so I still keep coins in my ownr wallet. There is no point in selling Bitcoin now.

I was holding bitcoin since long time ago. Based on my experience and analisys, we are in a good time now. btc price is pretty stable and not so unpredictable, also we are close to halving time then for me there is no reason to not holding bitcoin. even I hope i can accumulate more bitcoin in +- 200 days from now, I was put all my investment fund in cryptocurrency and most of it is in form of btc. what can I do for now is waiting to get my salary so I can use some of it to buy more btc.

Means you really will make your bitcoin investment for the long term regardless of time. You will keep it as long as possible as long as you are not forced to use it. And I think that's a pretty good thing as long as you're really only using cold funds. I also hope to hold onto bitcoins as long as I can. But when Bitcoin reaches ATH maybe I will start selling and will start accumulating again when the bear market comes back. But I'll probably keep half of it and try not to touch it for a long time that I won't specify.

You're not alone! I'm also in the HODL gang. It can be tempting to sell when you see some profits, but it's important to think about the bigger picture. Bitcoin has shown tremendous growth over the years, and I believe it still has a lot of room to grow. So, I'm holding on and patiently waiting for the future!

not too strong for me because there are many needs that I have to fulfill, little by little I have released my btc and now the remaining btc that I bought when btc was priced at 40k $ and above yesterday, and I will survive for 2024 with the remaining btc that I have however if I could afford it I would repurchase periodically

It is still better to sell it off because of your needs than to starve yourself and your family by holding bitcoin. It is always your needs your priority, no matter if you've got nothing right now, because that is really the purpose of Bitcoin, to meet our needs. Just buy it back when you have extra money, but right now, prioritize yourself and your family until you're stable.

Sorry to hear that. Don't feel bad for selling it, your survival and needs are most important. Damn, the whole reason for investing is to be prepared for the things like that. When the time will come perhaps you'll buy even more.

I think bitcoin is a very strong currency long term it will increase in value but it will take some time. It would be foolish to sell because if you sell today you will be disappointed if the price goes up tomorrow, so wait and panic no matter which way the market goes. Before investing capital, investors must know and understand the financial instrument they are investing in. This is even more so in the case of a highly speculative asset like bitcoin. Even well established digital currencies like bitcoin and ethereum are particularly subject to price fluctuations, although they have a better track record of increasing in value over time than their less established counterparts.

Since you were able to buy bitcoins at a good time, selling your bitcoins right now is not a good idea. I don't know how much you need, but if there is another way to meet your needs without selling bitcoins, I would definitely suggest you to hold on to bitcoins for a while longer. There is a possibility that the market will be in a better position towards the end of this year or early 2024 so if you want to hold your investment for a little longer there will be some chance of making a profit from your purchased bitcoins. If you sell your bitcoins right now, you will regret selling bitcoins at this time when the price of bitcoins will increase in a few days.

You're right OP and I am also in the same situation as you. Unless we are so confident in our analysis then we can sell out bitcoins and then hope that we can buy again at a cheaper price. What I did instead is just continue to add every month. The goal is not just 2024 but 2025 or even more if in case I don't need to cashout during that period. So even the current price right now is still cheap compared to the potential price of bitcoin after the halving year where ATHs are broken according to its previous price movements.

until now I still hold bitcoin until the bull season comes, my main reason is that my intention to invest is based on the money I use to invest is cold money, so from the start I want to save my money from inflation that occurs, so until whenever it is I'll wait until my money doubles, we can't talk in 2024 there is a certainty of a bullrun, it can happen sooner or later, therefore patience will lead us to a golden age, because I believe bitcoin adoption will continue to grow

That's a good approach to bitcoin, buying with the DCA method helps a lot in accumulating a crypto portfolio over a longer period of time. Like you I have started to buy bitcoin regularly since the drop from it's ATH. I don't feel bad about buy above the 30k USD, because I also bought below 20k. My average purchase price is around 24k, which puts me in the green compared to today's price. But I am not thinking about selling any coins as I am going to keep buying instead. 100k USD seems like a good goal before I would even consider selling some coins. And even then I would only take profit in a small fraction and keep holding most of my coins.

Even after the post-coronavirus price drop, the price may skyrocket. Bitcoin has the potential to reach that level, one of the reasons for this is the banking-sector crisis. The banking-sector crisis may attract investors to Bitcoin. Producers may also be encouraged to increase stockpiles for global supply. We now think this estimate is too conservative, and therefore we see a target increase for Bitcoin in 2024.

I'm still holding until the next bull run and I don't plan selling my coins before that, otherwise there are serious risks I won't be able to purchase more BTC for a cheaper price again, because the price can skyrocket at any moment as soon as I sell my coins. Then it would be a disaster leading me to waste the profit opportunity the bull run brings to us. I believe we just have to be a little more patient until next year to see Bitcoin's price increasing solidly.

By there keep your coins safely stored in your wallets and don't think too much about your savings, otherwise you may feel anxious and tempted to sell it before the right time.

For now, the bitcoin assets that I am targeting to face the halving and bull run market next year will still be held by me and I will definitely not sell them. Because I will continue to commit to the target price that I want, which is above $ 60k. Then when the bitcoin price can reach or pass that price, then I will sell it. So basically I will definitely keep holding my bitcoin assets for next year, or rather for a target price of $ 60k.

The price of btc next year will definitely experience a price increase, because next year there will be a halving cycle, which usually occurs once every four years for bitcoin. But sometimes, after the halving occurs, usually the price won't increase drastically right away, but you have to wait first. It could even be, the high price increase that will occur in bitcoin will peak early in 2025.

For 2024 and even for 2025, the price of bitcoin will most likely be high and not the right way to buy bitcoins, but those years are good years to sell bitcoin assets. So your guess is probably right, in the next year, the price of bitcoin will not be as low as it is now.
But if you want to buy bitcoin again, you will have to wait for the upcoming bull run to die down first. Because usually after the halving and bull market are finished, the bitcoin price will decrease again, and that's where you can start buying again.

Holding bitcoin is the best thing ever and not to be afraid. Bitcoin price is not stable in one place. Even within one month bitcoin price changes for like two to three times. The price you mentioned as of that time of April 2023 has changed several times and being the 1st of August 2023, the price has come back to the $28k again. And everyone is holding their coins for the next coming ATH bull market of bitcoin. And the expectation is very high. From 2024 - 2025 will be the time of the bull market whereby everyone is waiting to see. I have been hodling since last year to see the bull (ATH) which everyone is clamouring in the forum. It is just a throw of a stone to meet it because this is the 8 month of the year and 4 months is left for us to see the 2024. I wish you all the best.

Yes, that is the most common strategy and I can't blame it. You can have the luck that the bear market gives you opportunities to buy cheaper than last time you sold. But you can also fall in the trap that any future bear market doesn't give you values lower than the ones you sold last times. So, that's always a gamble because we all know that Bitcoin tendency is to grow grow grow. That's why I prefer to only buy regardless the price and hold.
I also use Bitcoin whenever I can, I'm not only an hodler. I pay a couple of things with Bitcoin.

I believe that experience and knowledge will bring someone to hold Bitcoin to reach the next ATH. The trust will be born when they understand the pattern of Bitcoin travel and that's where the level of risk is no longer a big problem for them. But for some people who implement a short -term strategy for their investments that they live, they might see certain moments to sell them and I believe they also make a long -term investment percentage of the ownership of the Bitcoin they have.

However holding back bitcoin until it reaches its next ATH is the most appropriate strategy and that's why Bitcoin is considered one of the best investments in the long run that can maintain value.

I don't have plan of selling my Bitcoin until a new all time high, my bitcoin are safely secured in a hardware wallet currently, I will think about taking profit once we are in a bull market, but now we are still in a bear market and we need to keep holding, only those who are brand new to Bitcoin market will lose hope because they don't prepare for a long term holding, some people expect a one year hold and that's it, but bear market is always longer than a year, instead of enjoying the adoption season they get tired of waiting for bull market.

If we don't need the money urgently, I really don't see any reason why we should sell our bitcoins right now. We've been able to endure the extreme bear season in 2022 and we're just a short distance away from the bull season. So why are we selling now and can't wait any longer for a bigger profit? Some people are expecting the bull season to come sooner, but I am the opposite, even I want bitcoin to drop more so I can buy more bitcoins. Because once a bull market comes in, we won't get a second chance to buy bitcoin below $30k.

I wish I could buy a huge amount of Bitcoin just like the others here can buy with their excess money. Because for now, my resource is not enough to sustain all my expenses, and if ever there is excess is only a small amount something like around 10-15$ only.

I wish I could accumulate Bitcoin too as the others implemented dca to their. That is why sometimes with the excess money I'd rather choose to buy some meme coins that has a potentials to give a nice profit when bull run comes.

That is really the reason why other people got left behind, thinking about the dip or whether the price would continue to drop. Ive just imagined they got left behind and were forced to buy, but the price is already high and will drop again. That is why it is better to buy when you can, meaning no matter what the price is as long as you can afford it, because mostly with this you'll not be left behind and also not stress yourself thinking about a dip.

It is really best to treat bitcoin not only for investing and holding it but also as a payment method, though I always convert it to my own fiat so that I can spend it because there are only a few merchants here that accept bitcoin.

There is no reason to sell Bitcoin so quickly if I don't need the money urgently, obviously it's not in my investment plan, there is only increasing the amount of assets when I have some additional money from other sources. Bitcoin has grown and will continue to grow as the years go by, the cheapest price is probably the best chance to get Bitcoin at a small discount as the market is down.
Bitcoin has not broken ATH before, the current bitcoin price movement is on a positive path, you will feel a tremendous impact when Bitcoin reaches its highest price.
Buy at a low price, sell at a high price, that's the true concept of investment.

Yeah, I'm still holding Bitcoin and I don't think I will sell them soon unless there's a really good opportunity for that. Even then I won't sell a big portion because I believe that Bitcoin's price will increase a lot in the long run. So, I always want to keep a good amount of them in my wallet for a long-term HOLD.

I believe that some people here have been holding their Bitcoin for years already and they have already made a huge profit that they never expected. Nevertheless they are still holding and patiently waiting for Bitcoin's price to skyrocket so they can cash out a bit and enjoy their investment.

That's bitcoin many trust by storing long even though it has passed several cycles, if a true holder they will survive until the bitcoin is needed again, but that person is financially strong because they ignore the high rise when there are people who continue to survive during the temptation of soaring increases.

Like me, there is already a target where when bitcoin $100k is a golden opportunity to sell because it has 3x the profit it gets, but it's not wrong that way as long as they are still profitable then it must be withdrawn immediately, after bullish will definitely come bearish again, this has become a cycle that many people know.

At least it has gotten to be the goal of all of us.

yes, of course after we make a profit and sell our btc during a bull market, after that we can wait for the btc price to drop first to make a purchase,

you say that in 2024 and 2025 is not the time to buy, but the time to sell. but I don't fully agree with your opinion because in my opinion buying during a bull market is also not wrong as long as you have good analytical skills because we won't know where the peak price of btc will be during a bull market. but indeed buying during a bull market is very high risk.

Bearish and bullish cycles will indeed continue to repeat and it is not a problem if we can take a profit position in a bull market and start buying again when the bears come. The current target of 100k is indeed the most reasonable. And maybe I also have the same target around that price. It depends on how the market situation will be when the bull market comes. whether it will be strong enough to continue to increase or not. That's when the decision may be whether to continue to hold or take some of the profits to be spent again in the event of a decline.

But to be honest, if my financial situation was more stable, then maybe I would ignore the increase that has occurred in bitcoin and would continue to be strong even for a longer and unspecified time. Like what Hal Finney did, who kept his own bitcoins to be passed on to his children. Maybe I will also follow steps like that if I have enough financial.

What if the next bear market is consecutively higher than the previous bull market? Won't you be losing money anyways? I prefer always by no matter the price. Thhat is my only strategy and I don't worry too much about buying lows and selling highs and risking that lows are higher than previous highs!

What a great example of a HODLer you are! Just chilling with your Bitcoins as you wait for the big rocket to the moon. No FOMO, no FUD, just pure, unadulterated HODLing. My friend, you must have steel nerves.

Playing the long game is risky, but you have to give it to you: you've got guts. Bear market patience and disregarding bullish rhetoric is not for the faint of heart. Others, meanwhile, are undoubtedly green with jealousy and kicking themselves for selling at the first indication of profit.

So heres to you, dedicated HODLer; may your Bitcoin multiply like a well-fed Shiba Inu. Make sure to write us a postcard from the moon!

Yeah, I am still holding most of my bitcoin, since I don't have to use them anytime soon. Most of my investment are in fact in bitcoin, and it is the only coin that I have sold the least. Just curious.. why do you want to sell? Do you really need the money? If not, then don't sell. Then you don't have to worry about being able to "buy when the price is low again". Just keep holding, and invest whenever you can. Invest even if the price isn't "very low". And if it does go lower, then invest even more. As long as you aren't selling, you shouldn't have to worry about losses or being able to buy again. Set a profit goal, and when you reach the goal, sell it, buy again, and then set a new goal.

Unless you immediately need money for some actual emergency (you lost your job, you need to buy some expensive medicine, etc) I struggle to find a single reason why someone should sell his bitcoins at this specific time: bitcoin's value is 60% less than the last ATH, in less than 1 year there is going to be the halving, there is a serious possibility that several bitcoin spot ETFs will be approved. Everything looks pretty bullish for the future.

Not like that anyway I have to feel the benefits of what is invested but it's not good to save bitcoin just for the sake of being passed on to children but I know what to do for old age later.

We will never know our finances will be stable long-term or not while with what is invested there is enough hope where we can enjoy it someday, if from the age of 25-40 stable finances then take advantage of that time in investing while you are productive.

So far I have no doubt collecting bitcoins every week from signature fees. because I believe that in the future technology will not be separated from the blockchain. So Bitcoin investment is a promising investment in the future, where the value continues to grow and the technology will be used by mankind because as long as technology exists and develops, Bitcoin will still exist.

That's the reason I will continue to hold Bitcoin, of course, like your reason too, with the halving getting closer it will add to my enthusiasm to continue to consistently collect bitcoins every week because bitcoin will reach a new ATH in the next few years and I believe the four-year cycle will repeat itself.

Cycles aren't all. If I were to write it the way you did I'd say that I believe in:
decentralization
being your own bank
deflationary properties of bitcoin
government working against us
fiat money eventually going to 0 due to constant printing
bitcoin being the emerging asset class that eventually every investor will recognize
no better way to store my wealth for generations


I'm not holding for the next cycle. I'm holding for the one that comes after and another one and the one when I'm no longer alive, so my children can benefit from it.

I do convert all my savings to Bitcoin because I see no reason why I should save my fiat in bank when I have the opportunity of buying Bitcoin now that the price is low and bearish sentiment and hodl though whenever I have an urgent need of fiat I do exchange some Bitcoin to fiat via P2P just to cater for my basic needs.

Majority of Bitcoin hodlers are hopeful of next year halving of the coin that will create opportunity for long term hodlers to sell part or all their Bitcoin to earn some decent profit, 2024 has a high expectations for we hodlers of Bitcoin because price history repeat itself during halving of Bitcoin we do witnessed a massive pump in the price of Bitcoin thus the best bet is to continue to buy and hodl or accumulate Bitcoin.
