It may be unfashionable to admit it, but Bitcoin is the last thing I'd sell to buy major items. I spend it on bits and bobs but no more. The last major electronic item I bought was paid for by selling off my old ones. That felt very satisfying and leaves me unemotional about future BTC price explosions.

I guess it was not wrong. if you have to sell bitcoin that you have the price is quite expensive, I think it is enough, although there is a sense that you are not satisfied of having missed the highest price. but I feel that it is still profitable because you can sell it when prices are rising. you just need to collect the coins again and wait until the price went up and resell. nothing is certain in the world of coin

There's nothing wrong with doing what you want with your money/bitcoins in my opinion. I'm sure you thought about it, weighed your options with your goals and decided that using your bitcoins to help you get what you wanted was the right thing to do for you.
Different people with different goals/priorities in the same situation as you may or may have done something different, but either way, there's nothing wrong with doing what you want with your money/bitcoin.

it really depends on your situation.
for example if i were you i would have used my money in the bank that is lying around to buy what i needed. it was only 200 USD afterall.
but in case i am in need of money and there is no other way of summoning that money, i would start liquidating my investments which is mostly bitcoin.

I only spend my bitcoins when I am in a very tight financial situations. Other than that I intent to keep them safe in my wallet. I hope I can keep it that way until the price boom of bitcoin. I do not want to spend them on gadgets that loses value and replaced by new models after 6 months.

I sold almost all my coins today for about 200 USD (that's what I had in my electrum wallet) and have very few coins sitting on my hardware wallet. I want to build a medium-high end gaming PC and this money is need for me to buy it. Did I do wrong that I sold a high amount of bitcoins about 0.35 to achieve my goal ? I am also happy that I am near fulfilling my goal but also sad as maybe the price of bitcoin skyrockets soon after I did this.
What ever I am the person who wants to achieve my goals no matter the cost so f it whatever the case with the price of bitcoin.
Well I wouldn't worry to much because you have hold these bitcoins to spend one day which has come in your life in something useful. If you have sold yesterday then today the price has changed (-$30) so I think you were pretty lucky selling at a higher rate, money is to be spared to spend later, but if you are bitcoin addicted then you soon will buy bitcoin for sure. Correct, we should not only worry on the negative side that bitcoin might increase its price tomorrow there still had the chance that you sold them at a exact time since bitcoins price is unpredictable it might rise or go low. As long you bought something useful with your bitcoin its always a good thing after all.

I think it can be good but I would hold them a bit longer to be honest, of course its your own decision but its okay. I think everyone has their thoughts about selling and also for what and which point.

I am planning to sell all 0.6 bitcoins that I have come October. There's a special occasion coming up that needs some extra money. I would have to sell it whatever the price by October will be. I don't know how I'd feel by then. Maybe I'll just start from scratch again repeat the cycle that I started just a few months ago.

I want to sell 0.12 bitcoins on localbitcoins.com. I am just waiting for the price to rise a bit more than $610 so I can make more profit because I need to use the cash.

I think you are nagging yourself because deep down you understand that gaming in general is a waste of time, and buying a PC just for playing games would likely be a waste of money as well. But what's done is done. If that helps bring you peace of mind, just imagine that you didn't sell your coins in order to buy a PC, something tangible, but simply lost them all while gambling at some online casino. Or, still better, make yourself believe that something like this really happened.

possibly yes because we all knew how btc fluctuate but if you really wants to achieve your goal that is much better to do first and try to re enter or buy btc and hold much longer.

Well for me the only thing that i can it is not wrong because you can recover it back. It is a good thing that you fulfilled one of your goal. this is a task of yours so you dont need to ask by others because you have your own decision. you should do simple task first to get your all goal done. until you reach dream come true.

possibly yes because we all knew how btc fluctuate but if you really wants to achieve your goal that is much better to do first and try to re enter or buy btc and hold much longer. well we all have to cash out sometime, whether it is a partial cash out or complete but as long as you are investing your money and you have no other money so you need to spend you have to cash out. but it would have been better if people like OP could just spend the bitcoin directly and bought what they wanted directly with that instead of selling to fiat and then buying.

I can understand your way of thinking. At the very beginning I was exactly like that. I was solely interested in piling up my coin stash and refused to spend any of them. I still don't spend any of my coins, but I do this. If I want to buy something in Bitcoin, then I convert fiat to Bitcoin, and then spend the coins. That way I never have to touch my own stash. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

if you need money to buy something ASAP then it is fine to sell your BTC at any price IMO. Don't beat yourself up over it with thought that if you waited then maybe price would be 2x higher or something. Believe me, it is not worth it. I experienced that too, when my SDD broke and I needed a replacement.
