HODL = Hold On for Dear Life ;)

[Poink]

So many times we hear HODL and when asked, not many know what it really meant.  Usual answer is a mis-spelled HOLD that got accepted (close but not the real origin).

HODL = Hold On for Dear Life

Now you know.

Anyway, HODL is the best advise when we have a crash like this.  Very appropriate too!

DIP or Crash?  well that is for next time.

(...does it show I am bored?  Better this than spreading FUD.) LOL

Is there actually any truth behind that? If so do you have any proof? Also seems a bit weird because there's an F in there 

Otherwise we could attribute many meanings to it. Hold or Die Losers. Help, oh dear lord. Hold one day longer.

Well, I read it somewhere about Crypto...whether it is 100% true, I am not sure.  Best one I've read though.

Many acronyms don't use all the letters btw

EDIT.  I looked it up for you.

Yes. Never sell for a loss. What's the point in that? If you can't wait a couple weeks for the price to come back up, you shouldn't be investing in something anyways. Always just wait it out. This has already happened so many times it's not even funny and we've recovered every time.

When i started to say hodl my coins , all the coins are going deep. And i said hodl again they gone more deep. I am saying hodl now. I can not sell my coins with this price. I will hodl compulsorily.

LOL don't see hodl then because your coins seem allergic to that word..haha anyways, kidding aside, these are really hard and trying times especially for the newcomers in the cryptocurrency and they are greeted with fear and anxiety with the price going down to most coins apart from bitcoin.

The feeling of fear is valid but they should stick and hang out with resilient and positive members of the forum to get some motivation and hope so they won't end up selling and not hodling (hope I spelled it right )

I'm agree with you when the coins going deep I'm trying to hodl but the price going down again

Every extremity is bad. Hold or not. Fanatics, etc.

Use your brain on every decision you take. Don't blindly follow 'a strategy' or gurus.

[xenomorphe1]

At the moment it is hodl if you don't care about losing money. Hodl if you are winning more money is better.

[tukagero]

Im getting too worried right now, i thought btc is back again ehen the price bounce to $9000 but now dipping all the way down to $7000, i think i cant hold it anymore when it dips even lower.

[hynext]

Well, hodl is the best solution to these cryptocurrency. We might sell when we see green and when it reaches our own goal.

[hackzang12]

The market seems too bad for us.. what we need right now is HODL, no matter good or bad condition is. Still remember that from this early age up to the next few years to come, you'll no be worrying about your future.

I disagree with you OP because Hodl is a slang used in the bitcoin world and it simply means hold onto your bitcoin rather than selling it.

[auliahr]

for me hold is the best option and let its value continue to decline, it can even be worthless. than I had to sell and only received 20%-30% of my initial capital.

hold: the price goes down, it may be worthless, but we still have the goods or its assets (tokens).
sell: capital can be back, but not in accordance with initial capital and we have no goods or assets anymore.

Maybe, LOL ... FUD is just a Tether trash.

If we can`t buy, HODL and make positive speculation about bitcoin in social networking is an effective way, use your time as best as possible to create a more positive work.

Use your brain on every decision you take. Don't blindly follow 'a strategy' or gurus.

You are right, maybe the exact term is' Do as long as we can control it'.

But this meme can help newcomers understand crypto more easily by explaining it technically means hold on for dear life. It has a better ring to it rather than the odd random forum misspell story.

While I HODLing, I usually buy the dip. It like guaranteed profit when it goes,but that dip can go to a lower dip. Something like what been going on the last 2 months.

[psycodad]

The term HODL actually comes from this legendary thread/post here in bct:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375643.0

Since then true believers in crypto do not hold but HODL.

[JetSet11]

The title of this thread charmed me. Haha. Yeah, I've lost a good part of my investment, but I'm confident that it will come back and then some. Right now is shopping season, and I'm optimistic about the future gains that I'll have.

Just hodling is not always the best strategy. If u really believe the market will fall further, it's better to sell and buy at a lower price. I sold a lot of my funds when btc was at 8k, and bought again today, so that I could accumulate more coins. Obviously, getting the timing of this is pretty difficult, so hodling is usually the best strategy, but not always.
