What do you mean by HODL?

[trrewqs]

Hodl - this is a certain tactic in the trade. This is when you buy a coin and keep in the long run

[masterrex]

Can anyone clarify what this term means? I was wondering if it should really be spelt as "HOLD" or the meaning of "HODL" is really crypto-related. I already tried searching threads that explain this but was unsuccessful. I was very curious since I began reading discussions in bitcointalk and I usually see this term but I just understand it to mean 'hold' which means don't sell yet your coins. Please correct my misunderstanding if any. Thanks for your time.

"HODL is a popular crypto-currency slang sometimes means to "HOLD for long term" or literally means "Buying Low and Sell High" that is the meaning of "HODL" and not just this slang many of them is used in Crypto-Community such as "BTFD" "BAGHODLER" FOMO" "WEAKHANDS" and many more.

If some of you are not aware, there are actually some words or terms used in trading wherein traders have their own understanding; HODL could be referred to as “Hold on for Dear Life” and if abbreviated spelled out as HODL.

Hodl means holding, we just adopted its slang term because it is kind a cool. And I disagree to your opinion that holding an altcoin is stupid, it is you who are stupid, HODLING every coins you have right now and selling it in the right time means profits in the next pump.

Hodl just mean hold

[losh11]

in my fancy, hold which in the goal hither is it is embodying retentive symbolizing hunger expression or infielder expression expecting an besides edge of payoff movements in the bazaar

[Matthew Oliveiraa]

Hodl also means hold.HoldCoin is simply a long-term investment, meaning choosing a coin that you feel is potential, promising "longevity" and keeping it for a long time (from about 2.3.5 months to several years). ) and until the price of coin grows to the right level of your target, you will be profitable. However, not all hold will be profitable, if you do not choose the right coin then the probability of loss is very high

In essence, HODL means HOLD, that is, hold, in the case of an electronic money player when a person holds a coin that is not sold, regardless of how the price goes down. The community does not use the original word but uses a reverse word derived from a member post that has a Game Kyuubi nickname on our bitcointalk-forum, titled "I AM HODLING", which is Posted on December 18, 2013. Bitcoin has experienced the first strong rally in its history, rising from $ 130 to a peak of $ 1130 on Dec. 5, 2013. , BTC started dropping and the strongest drop on December 18, when the price of BTC was just over 500. The electronic currency was very confused, and he The humor of the title (wrong spelling), plus the content of the call to enthusiasm that this guy wrote was quickly responded by other members. Many "HODL" co-stars and even meme supporters. The term "HODL" is also derived from that.

And all at once rushed to tell a legend about the famous typo))) The case is funny. Now this error will leave an imprint in the history))

[seregeiImaneal]

As I have heard there was one user who wrote his appeal to the community in agony to not to sell their assets and he just made the typo Some other members loved this word as is and decided to use it. So hold is holding your coin when hodl is extreme holding when you should restrain yourself as strong as you can

[Infracoins]

That word came from over hype guy at this forum i guess. And everyone else start using that word to replace HOLD. kinda funny though.

actually yes!...hodl, is simply hold!..meaning when the price is low, hold!..do not sell, because in the end, you will lost!...not something but your investment!..be careful guys..

[iancortis]

its a Hold On Dear Life or HODL. for holding tokens and investments can create a massive financial of living in the future. so, if you hold a huge amount and    keep holding til the peak reached. and i also heard about drunk trader, typing on keyboard from "Hold to Hodl"

[Nikolya]

Under the HOLD abbreviation, I understand to keep bought tokens until the sale price suits me completely.

[kipo]

I think that you should hold if you want to become a successful trader taking not many risks. to my mind, it is better to hold not trading every day because you can lose not as much

[ak49er]

My understanding of hold is that you need to wait for the project that interested you to go through the whole road map and cause interest among users and investors

[amila_cs]

HODL is when you hold a bag no matter what the price is and sell only when you reach some time limit, probably long time like year, 5 years etc. Holding needs huge courage and patience as you might feel like selling when the price is high or even wants to move on to a different coin when the price keeps tanking. But if you are a true HODLer you will not be moved by anything and "Hold On To Dear Life"

HODLing is an extreme sport  

[Benarand]

In 2013, one guy was sealed when he wrote a message. Since then, this error has become very popular in the world of crypto-currency. Whenever a person says that he is hodling, this means that he believes the coin will be profitable later, if not today.

[kkaroul4]

if I think the hold is holding a coin or anything in the long run when we trade or invest in conditions that are not good, such as the decline in our commodity prices and we also have to wait for the right time to sell at high prices

[flowdon]

The very first time the term HODL appeared on the Bitcoin talk forum was in 2013 and came from a member named GameKyuubi under the thread “I AM HODLING”.

From the look of the post, he was drunk and wanted to convey the fact that he was holding his BTC despite the serious fall that had just happened.

Since then, this misspelled term became very popular in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency world. Whenever a person says in a conversation that he/she is hodling or suggests to hodl, it means that they believe their coin will be profitable one day, if not today.

So basically, “HODL” was originally a typo which has now popularly earned the status of a humorous backronym:

Hold and Hodl have the same meaning of holding or not selling coins in a bad market situation. Hodl is used only in terms of crypto trading. the history that I know the word hodl comes from the wrong people say hodl at the time of trading crypto.
