Don't waste your precious hard disk bytes, gift me your wallet and delete it from your hd

Seriously, i suggest wait, i only sell when i need to pay the electricity, but all the other coins are on my savings wallet, very very secured (nivel paranoid) lol

[zerokwel]

the way I see it If it cost you nothing you have nothing to loose. As long as you cover your mining bills

Patience. It may take some time, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I feel as if everyone is expecting the value of BTC to increase on an unrealistic time frame. Anyway, is your goal to always sell BTC for cash? If not, buy something that you need from one of the many vendors that sell things or save them until a time when you do need something.

[MtRev]

I would wait a few days to see which direction the trend is going. Right now the charts showing a great deal of indecision. Soon we will see if it will move back up or fall down some more.. . whichever direction it move to, it will keep moving that way for a while.

[hayden]

I can solve that problem for you!

Donate them here instead! http://www.bitcoin-charity.com/ 

[mtbitcoin]

I would sell a portion for cold cash, invest a portion in a mining company and keep the rest

cheers

[MtRev]

I really don't understand the point of a "mining company"
Why would someone rent out their servers to mine?
I mean if it's more profit mining why rent it to mine for someone else?

[Trini8ed]

WHY DIDN'T I KEEP THEM 

[raspcoin]

WHY DIDN'T I KEEP THEM 

Relax, you are not alone. Just do not make the same mistake twice.

[exstasie]

WHY DIDN'T I KEEP THEM 

Hopefully you've managed to accumulate a few more since then lol. 

[Gator-hex]

Never cook again and live off free food for the rest of your life www.takeaway.com   okay maybe 10 years depending how much you eat and BTC inflation.

if you want to sell we are here to buy.
thanks.

I think you should give it away to random scroungers on the internet.

I spent them all the same week that I bought them. I try to have no regrets in this life but that makes it difficult.

[wyj107]

[MahaRamana]

WHY DIDN'T I KEEP THEM 

The fear to lose, maybe ?

[addy4u]

Sell some BTC and keep the rest

This guy sold a while back

[Trini8ed]

At least it wasn;t 10,000 btc for a pizza.

Psst... there's never been a better time to buy!

(Disclaimer: there has definitely been a way better time to buy... try early 2011!)

[MAbtc]

Sell into strength when the time is right. Question is, when is the time right?!

[gabr]

you have 22.3 btc but i have 0.00025btc.

[oxideNL]

i would NOT sell it at current value.
Invest invest invest!

22 btc can earn you quite a daily profit ( and cash out some of that )

[big kid]

You could buy some serious mining gear with that amount and make Btc22+ a month back...........that's what I would do.

[Kiki112]

guard them with your life
BTC is exploding, just hold them for a little while longer

[gagalady]

save them, they are rising, and they should hit $1k-$1.5k or more

[Wipeout2097]

lol, do you guys read before you post???

He already sold them! Now, stop bumping this thread and putting salt in his wounds!

[Micky25]

I heard of BTC in early 2011, made a half-assed attempt to setup a miner, failed - and put the topic aside.

Today I catch me thinking, that I could have been a millionaire. But then I realise, I know myself, I probably wouldn't have more BTCs than I have now, because I dumped them at every semi-crash, gave most of them to pirateat40 or invested them (and a lot more real cash) in some other shady BTC-investment-opportunities.

So I'm quite sure, I would have less BTC/money now if I fiddled around with them since 2011  

Thats destiny. If you earn it, you earned it. If not, you didn't.

[DannyHamilton]

Now, stop bumping this thread and putting salt in his wounds!

If he doesn't want this thread bumped, he should lock it.

That's the only brightside!  Must've been the best $8.5M pizza ever

[scarsbergholden]

sell sell sell

shrug, i dunno. im holding. but really id like to see a nice drop in price.

[rausvi15]

Give them to me as a gift and return them to you for one year

[monbux]

I would suggest you just sell a bit right now, just in case bitcoins drop.

[galbros]

I'm sorry you sold out your stake earlier when the price was just $15. 

However, a lot of people are in the same boat as you.  If you were asking this question today, and I know you're not, I actually read the thread before responding, I don't see how you can be too upset selling a small portion of your horde at todays prices.  So if I had 22 BTC (and I don't, I don't even have 10% of that!) I'd be tempted to sell 2 of them now.  That way if the price crashes you can still say you got something out of it and not have a lot of regrets.  On the other hand if the price goes to 10,000 USD per coin, you're still so rich you really don't give a shit about selling a couple of them at 850 USD.

Good Luck and don't stress over it!

It's one of this things where its easier to say "should have" after you already know.

If I were to sell 1 BTC right now, i'd make 400% profit on my BTC.  However, if BTCs were to go up to $10k in a  year, i'd be beating myself up too.  Or if BTC were to drop to $1...i'd be estatic that I sold.

At that point in time, you made the right decision.  No one has any way of predicting what the future will hold.

[naphto]

Everyone is waiting for the price to crash before buying?

[denton_12]

You win some you lose some.   There is no way to have the foresight to know what was going to happen 2 years later.   You made the right decision for the time.

[gerXhonza]

WHY DIDN'T I KEEP THEM 

 

Everybody has to decide whether to sell or hold and live with the consequences of his decission. Only future tell us who was right

[Batshark]

WHY DIDN'T I KEEP THEM 

Well, if you needed the money at the time, it was the smart thing to do. You probably made some good profit, too. You did the right thing!

[felior]

I would wait to see how will react other sites, we can see that more and more places accept BTC as payment, as long as there are new places I think that value of BTC can only increase (especially if big players start to use it regulary) ...

+1. Wait and see is best approach unless you need money or buy something urgently. Big merchants will not miss the oppurtunity for new sales I believe

[minutetaker]

sell 2.3 btc

[hidemyhost]

collect more btc

[scriptcoder]

Sell!

[Thomas_the_Train]

From what I have read, many people who have sold have come to regret it. That said, I have no experience day-trading and would refer you to those with more experience in the nuances of generating profit on bitcoin exchanges

I suppose one healthy method would be to reimburse yourself for any initial expenses, and select an appropriate percentage to convert to your currency of choice so that you have a sense of security, while keeping some assets within the bitcoin system such that your portfolio can continue to grow.

[WayTooGosu]

Wow, how did you get so many? That is insane.

[Trini8ed]

I think I mined a total of 90 btc or so

[nobbynobbynoob]

Wow, how did you get so many? That is insane.

This is a 2011 thread that has been necro'd.

Bitcoin was dirt cheap before April 2011.

OP, I just heard a great saying yesterday.  "You've got to stop should'ing all over yourself"  All anyone can do about anything is from the present forward.
