Is holding bitcoin Greedy?

[Dapper]

For me, greedy is just something people who are envious of others say.

[Boom69699]

No it is not being greedy it is being wise because it is an investment

[Mrliberty]

Greediness is Wanting to take something more than one can reasonably consume..............So i don't support that holding bitcoin is greediness

[Shishimanu]

It's not greedy.It's the wisest thing in Bitcoin and there isn't so many people who have enough patience to hodl btc.So holding btc is not greedy

I would have definitely not hold my all coins, instead i would hold 70 percent and withdraw the partial profits as and when they are accumulated.I like waiting as well patience is the key to success.Still i would divide the portfolios among all other good coins as well and make the most of it to avoid any loss in a single coin , that how i manage the portfolios . Keep withdrawing partial profits.

To me, I don't think holding Bitcoin is a greedy thinking. I think it's a good strategy for business. But yes if that person thinks that I will hold Bitcoin for a long long time without investment then I will call him/her greedy. Bitcoin value is increasing day by day. The last year that is 2017 was a perfect example of this increasement. So if you don't invest then the value won't increase. Not only that if everyone start to hold Bitcoin then it will lose it's familiarity. So, instead of holding for a long time I think everyone should invest it in trading. But for a short period of time holding Bitcoin is not greedy rather it is a smart strategy.

all things there is a risk, I think those who hold bitcoin until they think it's high for me it's their right to hold bitcoin until the value is high but most likely there is a risk for the person holding it.

After increase of 1000s of times in bitcoin price, still holding bitcoin for increase is not a easy thing but still it has to reach long in future, So normally again it will definitely increase in multiple times in this year also.

Everyone invest to earn good profit from his money. So if someone keep holding their bitcoin and wait to get good profit then its now greed its generic human nature.

[sudhirratra68]

Greed is always there in money business.

Since it is always about money but if you are getting good profits against your investment in bitcoins within minimum time, I think it is better to sell but if market is slow, you can wait for a longer period till you get any jump. If You already have a great increase then do not be greedy and sell it.

[TeraBitHoven]

Holding is being practical and wise, not as being greedy.
But there is a risk in everything when it comes to money, even holding it for too long is not the best option, unless you are waiting for its value to get higher.

I think it is mixed with both being smart and greedy. As we all have our greed for our and our families better future, we want see great things happen to our lives in future, and holding our btc for future is a smart idea.

Most people now with the rise of bitcoin value, just want to hold bitcoin for as long as they can so that they can maximize their worth. But isn't it a little too greedy to just keep holding bitcoin?
We've all read that story in the school with the moral "Greed is a Curse".
So what if too much greed in bitcoin may backfire? What if, the hodlers end up with nothing?

No doubts that you are saying totally true but in actual there is another factor also because here not everyone hold big amount of Bitcoin in Thier wallet and they are with the limited amount of earnings with this big pump of price because of demand .
Since many made big earnings but here not everyone , so here many people are making buy more and more Bitcoin to hold and those who didn't made big profit are looking to earn Bitcoin more and more and hold for 2-3 years , so that they can complete Thier dreams with again increase in price .
So at this point I can say that you are looking at the end point but few people are newbie like in this field and they are towards the starts to make profit hopefully .

I think if holding more bitcoins is not greedy,but it is a benefit if the prices of btc increase.That is what the good about holding btc.But if the prices drop,i think you must be patiece,because the price always going up and down everytime.Better don't sell it first,like what i'm always said.I trust that the prices will skyrocket sometime.

[arthur25]

For me keeping bitcoin is not a form of greedyness. Greedy is collecting more than what you have already even you have so much you feel it is not enough. Holding bitcoin can make you rich in timing. But it can make also bankrupt if not giving it on timing. Greedy is maybe helpful in some area but harmful if not watching it.

[Beehives]

Holding btc is not greediness but a strategy. A strategy to gain more.  If the behavior of btc market is going better and better why should dispose your stocks. Sell you btc if the price is on the prime.

It's just being smart about what you have right now, same as investing into established assets like gold, precious metals, real estate, stocks and the likes. Institutional investors might disagree with you on this thing since they try to maximize their wealth for better living and to ensure that they will live their life to the fullest. Being greedy is wanting all that you obviously don't have and shouldn't have, but trying to maximize anything that you have possession with to reward you with greater value is being smart IMO.

Indeed. I don't think when you have bitcoin and not letting go is being greedy. It's just being practical since money is hard to earn nowadays and the worth of goods and resources are no joke.

[daniel.g86]

No, absolutely not! It is because people know about the true potential of bitcoin and they just want to sell it only when they feel like they are getting the best out of it.

Holding Bitcoin is the way to make your profit become bigger. It is not being greedy. It is the practical way. It is the easiest yet profitable. Are you afraid of investing in Bitcoin? Do you think you will never have a profit and you will get a loss on your money instead? That will never happen. Bitcoin is for long term investment. If you are patient, your future worth will increase.

[kiki52]

maybe you right. so many people hold they bitcoin to get much more from bitcoin. but greedy in bitcoin i think that is hard because they not like gamble they see the price always going up and they keep hold.
