For me I presume HODL to be, HODL ONLY TO DENY LOSS

If you hodl, you stop yourself from falling victim of panics which is disheartening
Always remember to be bold and courageous because that’s the only way to survive this crypto space

It's very popular to see people selling off their Altcoins with such reckless abandon you begin to wonder if the word hodl ever comes to their mind,come to think of it,how much was bitcoin 8 years back,compare it to the price today,the gulf in price is astronomical..
  Most bounty hunters sell as soon as it hits their wallet,i think the hodl approach should be adopted even the more,you never know what the price of the Altcoin you're calling shit might be in few years time..
  This to me is a perfect trading strategy,hodl your alts and don't be in a haste to sell off
Just many are aimed at making a profit as possible in a shorter period of time. Therefore, as soon as the price starts to grow a little bit, many of their owners immediately begin to sell them.

Honestly, I do not understand why people even have the talks about selling out, I really don't because the market has been stable and good. I do not see the concerns these people have and their reasons for not HODLing.

The message should be clear: There is going to be a good future for crypto, its too late for things to go pear-shape. Don't listen to the few pessimists, be positive and keep calm, good returns will follow.

Investing in the long term is not a very interesting idea to make money right now. Need to survive the current time is not clear state of the crypto market. I think this period will pass quickly and long-term investments will occupy a large structure in the total volume of all crypto investments.

During the fall of the market, all investments instantly turn into long-term ones. There can be no other way. You need to either keep a long time coins for which the price fell or sell them at a loss.

Your point is totally wrong, holding strategy worked just in 2017 when the market was in long up trend, but it's not gonna work all time, holding blindly and dreaming about being rich in 5 years !! nonsense.
I sold out all my tokens that I got form bounty and I don't regret it, because if Ididn't I would have been in big loss by now.

HODL is a two edged sword. It can be good and bad. So the OP words can work for or work against investors and bounty hunters. There are some coins I regret holding till now after I received them. You can't always win.

I'm a bounty hunter too, and i prefer to hodl than selling my reward coin directly after distribution.
I've always tried to keep my coins and wait for it to rise a bit or perhaps a lot before selling them

Thats right, in this situation holding some altcoin from bounty I think its a bad choice. I have been holding some alt almost one year and it didnt has any progress, it just down slowly time by time.

You're right. But not all altcoins will be able to repeat the bitcoin scenario. Perhaps for some coins their current growth is the finest hour and it will never happen again. So in time to sell some coins too is sometimes useful.

for some people bounty is the only income, so they couldn`t HODL. Also, there is one problem, you know that statistic says that around 80% of ICO projects were closed after 3 months of life. HODL?

Many of us here are advicing that holding our coins when there is a low of prices is the best way to earn more profit someday in myself that was correct, if you are not patience of holding your coins and it will result in panic selling and your capital was lost.

Holding no is not good because the market movement looks stagnant and it is also not good time to do daily trading. The market is quit difficult to raise the price. It is probably the worse time after bitcoin reached the top price. However, it doesn't mean that bitcoin will end.

At the instant time, if you have invested in cryptos and are losing money, hold is the only way you will have the opportunity to earn a high profit in the future when the market increases in exchange rates. I can prove that in 2019, the market will grow again and divine that BTC will develop to $ 15,000 and ETH will increase to $ 1,000.

I am one of the people who directly sells my coins when prices are hits. Some of the coins I got from the bounty I immediately sold. Because I'm not sure to hold the coin. If you want to hold it, maybe I will only hold Bitcoin and ETH. I used to hold a few bounty coins then the price was very low. So I'm traumatized by something like that.

That's the actual fact but the truth is that different people have different approaches to cryptos, some are for short term while others are for long term. But me I think holding is still best option when you are thinking of long term. In the future crypto space will still grow.

Selling altcoins at this moment may be for different reasons.
Some people will sell in order to reinvest in another project, while some people will sell on order to cash out in fist.
If you have hodl your tokens for a long time and seen it depreciate in value over time it is unwise to sell now, unless the project is dead and you want to flip your portfolio.

It depends on how their strategy in selling. In this dump market, many people do trading to get the profits, they can utilize the market situation to make some profits. So it doesn't mean selling the coins in this market today is the result of panic. but, if we bought the coins in the higher price and then sell them immediately because of panic selling in the low price, it is  a big matter. And we must actually HOLD the coins, No matter, we must be patient.

Most people thought they are HODLING while storing in an exchange; holding should be done in a open sourCE wallet like HODLER wallet. Holding coin in an exchange will just make you tempted to sell your coins. Holding also require you to have the private key in your hand which exchange could not give. You have to allow yourself to have full authority over your funds and nobody else. You shouLD have the preview of the public code so you yourself could see potential vulnerabilities.
