HODL or selling are choices and strategies that are actually quite widely used in the investment business world. I understand "HODL" as a strategy while driving public opinion for certain purposes. So there is nothing wrong with that sentence. We better focus on building public trust in bitcoin.

Firstly, we should seperate investors and traders. Hold for investors, not for traders and i advice all beginners to be an investor not a trading if they don't have any experienced on other markets.

To hold is a choice to each individual. It is good to hold in a right situation that is why it is better to know everything first the status of the said crypto project or the standing of cypto market before deciding what strategy to make.

this is interesting, because everyone will often make this decision. traders, investors, or speculators.
the term "HODL" appeared in 2013, and came from a GameKyubi post in this forum. with the big theme "I AM HODLING"
he posted the theme because bitcoin dropped to $ 600 from $1300.
and today, investors prefer hodl. but, what is the decision for traders today? or many investors are turning into traders?
Trader nowadays turned into investor. Because some of them know if market still not on good condition to trade, and it is better to hold their investment. Me, myself turned from mid term trader be long term trader.

Everyone is just HODling, even hunters do HODL I think the term is not meant for only traders alone, at times one don't have to just dump any project coin been given instead we HODL.

Good acknowledgement, in my own part I think everyone is just an investor because we all contribute to the fact. A beginner should always understand the market quite well.

Majority prefers holding because its very easy with no problems whatsoever. You just buy bitcoin and let it sit in your wallet. As far as traders today, I presume that they're doing some day trade or intra day trade, meaning they buy coins and as soon as its ripe for the profit, they immediately dump it within the day and go on the next coins. But you have to remember that there's a big risk doing this and only experienced traders have the guts to perform this trick.

There is no hard and fast strategy for the traders or investors to do their business. Different investors or traders follow different strategies. And all of those strategies are unique. HODL is a good strategy, but there are also investors or traders who are having huge profits by noit following this strategy.

The HODL is an advice for BTC holders. Because HODL Bitcoin keeps the Bitcoin market stable because it prevents large-scale Bitcoin sales that can make the price fall. Bitcoin hardcore investors will definitely say that blockchain actually doesn't care as high as the price of Bitcoin in fiat money and you also have to. The most important thing now is that you must still have satoshi because that will help you later if everything is calculated with BTC.

indeed holds the right reason when prices decline, but by holding it will not be too helpful for prices to rise again, but with many investors buying crypto to invest which will make prices rise again, I hope many new investors will buy it.

i think by holding it, it will not worsen market conditions. if we can't buy, of course the best step is to keep holding it. thus price remains stable and hopes that investors will invest their funds

HODL is a good strategy for people that are not familiar, expert in trading, because trading can lose you big amount of money in little time, even if you are professional, but when you want to HODL some coins, it is needed to do two things: - remember and store your wallet input data (since you will not use it often, and could be forgotten, or lose) - analyze your coin, and believe in it

Those who are saying that holding can make you profitable it is true and in these days we have only one option that is holding and if we hold in this critical situation we can not lose any penny but making decision in hurry can cause you losses.

Hodling doesn't actually come good all the time but the good part is it requires little or no knowledge about trading,and if prices drop and refuses to rise for years and years,you simply leave it in there for as long as possible,most users are hodling coins that'll be willed to their coming generations
Traders are the more active marketers and they make quite some profits,i must confess,but I'm definitely not much of a trader in the system
I have paltry knowledge in investing,so I simply buy and hodl,its fairly easy

Depending on the ability and also the hobby of each person, to become a Trader as well as Holder. Nothing is absolutely absolute as there is nothing absolutely wrong. Everything is worth it. The more you want to understand a problem, then you have to spend time and learn thoroughly before making a decision.

I'm also a lot of coin holders because the reason why we have a long-term coin, is the situation that is very difficult for a very low price on the market. but most others sell their coins immediately. because they can not wait for them when the price increases. for me most of all I will wait until it gets increased. so holding the coin is the first to do.

Hodlers tend to do nothing and are only waiting for the right time to sell. While traders, they are the ones that are actively trading regardless of the market condition, they will continue to trade, in dip or in bulls. No stats with this but majority now would choose to hold.
i believe that youve got it wrong in there mate because all of us are traders even we hold or sell,even if we are a HOLDERS or DAYTRADERS the essence is still w are trading even if it took a long time from hodling until the time our selling point have been reached .so we must not differentiate the word =because we are all in same point.and that is to gain profit no matter how long will it takes

In my opinion it depends to individual desire according to their own strategies and techniques to deal the volatile market place. Hold is good most specially if we hold the right and very potential ones that will soar high when the right time of pump happens. It is also a matter of patient.

in my opinion, HODL or not, it has been the decision of each trader, because they also certainly have a goal, whether it is long-term or short-term. as long as they can be wise, that's not a problem. If everyone is hodl, it's not good either. the coin trading volume will also shrink
