HODL'ers lose. That is no surprise

[Pyr3x]

You are in vain doubting bitcoin because long-term investment is still profitable. And falling prices are not an indication of whether technology will live or die. I continue to keep bitcoin in my wallet and believe that the price will recover over time.

[Naughty Princess]

It is not necessary to talking about holding no need every situation time. Actually holding of course needed every time ,when Bitcoin market goes to big down.if we will get more profitable cross simple task then of course holding need.many people have believe Bitcoin market will rais again but actually need some/more time.

Holding is the perfect action for investors who are losing when the price drops and need more research about the coin if it is still has potential to grow for them to continue and not cut their lose immediately. It is necessary to gain lose when the price down, that is no surprise for that but have different strategy how they can maintain their profit and that needs more time to wait before it comes to the market again.

Blockchain is useless if bitcoin has end
Do not scared bitcoin will rise again if the decrease bottom price is rich
3000$ bottom crash after that bitcoin in the entire crypto currency begun to rise again
Do not convincing people sell their coins to stop huge loses
Everyone have an own mind what is bitcoin gives profits in the right time

[hildacitra]

I agree with you if bitcoin and crypto users could get out early from in 2018 they probably can minimize the lose. Now most of bitcoin users and crypto moan the same thing about the crypto decrease. Most altcoin including bitcoin are losing out the value, I wonder that this is the code or sign of bitcoin ending. Bitcoin and other major crypto probably will not maintain as blockchain technology.

In the end its an individuals choice on when to give up, investing is a matter of patience sometimes we win, sometimes we lose. We only live once, life without risk is boring. Too early to give up I should say, If you aim for long term setting a minimum for at least 2 years is better in my opinion.

Since the last few months, I've learnt that holding isn't the best approach to cryptocurrency rather occasional trading will help you cut losses and know when to make an exit.

"I told you so" comes to mind.

I warned everyone in here again and again in the beginning of 2018.

Get out of Bitcoin as fast as you can to limit your losses.

Everytime so-called "experts" and "investors" in here said to HODL. Bitcoin would soon go to the moon.

Only the most blind and stupid still believe Bitcoin will ever recover.

The sooner you get out, the smaller your loss. If you wait, you can be sure the loss will be even bigger.

Blockchain technology has a great future, but cryptocurrencies - any crypto -  are a dead end.

What if bitcoin did able to reach up 30k on this year? For sure you wont really say such this thing you are talking now. Getting out is optional
yet each people do have its own view to BTC either he decides to hold no matter what would be the price as long he do believe on that potential
then I don't see anything wrong with that.

HODL'ers lost. That is not surprising. But it all depends on their attitude in controlling their emotions, especially when they are faced with the market situation as it is now. But I still believe, bitcoin will recover as usual even I am very sure that its value will grow better than now.

I think waiting won't result in loss, if we have a big heart, positive thoughts / mature and be patient. Hi OP, real  I don't care about your words.

[kucritt]

hmm, i think you have a good point that said blockchain is the good system, but cryptocurreny is not, i think i like that statement, because we can try to put the blockchain technology in all things that we want to put it, not only in cryptocurrency, but all things that have the relation

[Dirk2017]

Well maybe its a destiny that many holders are unfortunately did not earn for this year but what if this year is in favor for the holders and not for the weak hands? Well you still make a post about this? but maybe the holders be the one will mocking you. So i say this shows that crypto market is really unpredictable, that we don't know what will happen next.

[Msworld83]

You understand the market and you have gotten it right and I can bet you that 90% of those who are in crypto now get in 2017 and many have not seen much of this type dip before and thought the hodl is best but found themselves else where and this is a lesson for all , but can you tell us when bull return too?

Wise hodlers mostly gain good profit but takes a long time because I believe that in crypto we can be profitable if we have the virtue of patience and never expect a short time to be profitable for loses is always been a part of investment therefore the fate of hodlers come into two faces either to be profitable or nothing and its just a matter of gambling decision.

[daweller1]

All you people who are gauging the value of Bitcoin by how many US dollars you can get for one, are douchebags plain and simple.
Whether you bought at $10 or $15000 US, that only matter to people who are thinking " oh if Bitcoin reaches $xx,xxx, I can sell it for US dollars and then buy all the stupid fucking toys I have always wanted. Then show off all my nice new clothing and toys to all my fake friends and I will be so cool "

Frankly it disgusts me.
1 Bitoin = 1 Bitcoin, end of story.... buy some for reasons bigger than ' you want to live a lifestyle ' or you.... I can't even finish my rant because this topic depresses me

I remember back in 2013 when I discovered Bitcoin, people only talked about mining, and how cool it was to say ' f off ' to banks
Those days are gone, and the main topic is ' how can I exploit Bitcoin to make more fiat money and spend fiat '

Well, I think it depends on how we manage our investments to Bitcoin. I myself has nothing to lose because I don't have funds to buy and hold for now or even before. Win or loss it is always part of the game of assets. Bitcoin on the other hand is not only an investment asset but a currency to be used most especially as a payment method. Bitcoin will alway be the first coin to recover on the market and I am sure of that.

[hahay]

Any bitcoin and crypto holder only loses when a crash occurs and so far we have seen the market always go down and up which seems to have become something common for those who have gone through a situation like this for the second time maybe or maybe more than that. I personally just believe this industry will continue to grow and the value of the market seems to be able to recover.

[mlsbd]

I dont think hodlers are losing anything as long as they not sell it yet, there are big chance that bitcoin still able to recover, if you are holder from the early adopter then you already got huge profit, and for the one that bought from peak price, then you need to wait for longer period to able to make profit

But i think holders loss many thing. You remind the last year 2017 market and comparing with 2018 market. Really there is no difference between this 2 years? I think the path of transit from this loss recovery is very long.

[chinny286]

Bto will bumost soonest, be sure of it. Forget the hate speeches

[killat]

On long-term (3-5 years) nobody knows what will happen. You cannot know fir sure that hold-ers will win or lose imo.

I'm keeping a small amount of bitcoin on the off chance that it does go up. And I do have a little faith in it seeing as it still seems like a great concept. However, looking at the facts without any emotion involved, it does look like a pretty bad situation - very little positive activity with bitcoin now and has been that way for quite some time.

When it comes to investing Holding is not a good way to tell other people to do here because they might end up losing it all. They should try practicing on how to cut their losses.

[thankyoulord]

Hodlers are not loosers, they hodl not because of profit and loss but because they believe in the bitcoin ideology which is what matters. Bitcoin maybe down in price but sure in future we will see it rise. It is just a matter of time
