Do Holders actually bought BTC during the crash?

[dothebeats]

I was actually bummed that I have no money to buy when the prices were in the sub-$5000 ranges. In fact, I have sold all of what I have in the $9000 ranges before it fell down due to an emergency. Also, the recent emergence of the pandemic also urged me to save what I can and just buy what I need, so bitcoin is not an option for that as well. For the long-time holders though, it is pretty obvious that all of them are buying in these pressing times since it's one way of actually making money in the market. They know so well that the market will recover no matter what, hence they are still buying even if things aren't looking pretty on all markets across the board.

The oil and stock markets seem to be in a pretty bad shape, too, so on that department you know that everyone is selling and not really touching the stocks as of late.

For the people who actually have enough money and can afford to buy Bitcoins this is like the golden opportunity since there is going to be no good opportunity like this , people who brought the Bitcoins will definitely get paid good in later life .

I do think crash can only recover if the people start buying Bitcoins , it is simple as that , therefore what they are doing is essential and this will inturn cause the prices to rise and this is how it all balances out .

[Lizzylove1]

Some friends who were awake during the flash dump, they bought and are already in profit. Bitcoin stayed long enough at the $4k zone for any risk taker to make a quick decision. I know some were waiting for $1k and they were heavily disappointing and will have to FOMO buy.

There were people on the Wall Observer thread who were buying hard in the $4000 range. There were also people running around like headless chickens who sold at that moment too. The golden rule is always to do the exact opposite of what your emotions want you to do. Hardly anyone can do that but if you can you're forever ahead of 99% of people.

This is very smart and I've been doing it every time.

I found that when the price keeps falling I'm surprised but believe it's just remporary so I keep holding but with every coming day when the price keeps going down I feel more and more pressure to sell. After a couple days I really start thinking about selling because it went lower than I had expected and I know this is the worst time to do it but it's how our minds work.

It's best to get busy with life and step away from charts.

This is why you must never panic sell. Unfortunately, I had very little fiat to invest to make any sort of realistic return. Had I the funds I would have watched that graph drop and my eyes would go big and I would decide when to buy. The exact buying part will be just luck but knowing that its the right time to buy is fairly certain. So it is a bit annoying for me not to have any fiat to buy when I knew in my heart it was the right time. I think even if you still buy now you will be making a wise choice. People who sold earlier on are really regretting and that is what happens when you let panic set in and stop thinking logically.

[princesspoppy]

Panic selling is really not a good idea whenever there is a crash in the market but rather a very good opportunity to buy more bitcoins and wait until the price recovers. But with the current situation where people really do needs cash during the lockdown to buy for their neccessities, only those people who have extra money and have enough savings can do the buying, and those who do not have are left with no choice but to sell even their btc even with the current crash in the market.

[hahay]

I don't think it's just about holders who buy more when there is a crash because when there are sales on a large scale then on the other hand there are also those who are ready to buy more, whether it's for holding for the long term or maybe only in the near future, because with the price drop at least the next thing that will definitely happen is a recovery and I think there will always be a moment where they take advantage of every event like this to keep making a profit in accordance with their respective abilities.

[Yaunfitda]

I think we don't need to complicate things, I mean we always preach one of the golden rules, BTFD. So these kind of reports just validate what we already know since the beginning, that smart investors know when to enter, that is when everyone is panic selling.

Maybe one factor that really threw us off-balance is the fact how quickly the market falls in matter of hours, and most didn't know how to react but sell. Yeah, they could be running like headless chicken, but they definitely regretting cashing out (specially if it is a loss).

According to reports by Arcane Research, Holders are buying based on their metrics, Hodler Net Position Change.



Pretty obvious though, I mean if you are a long term HODLer, you are waiting for this kind of opportunity to fill in your bags and accumulating. And probably those who have sold-off during the panic has somewhat regret their decision to do so.

Wise holders are doing it especially if they still have funds to do so but if there funds have been spent already then they have no other options but to wait for the market to increase so they can sell their assets and to profit. It is good to buy once the market will crash as it is the basic of investment, buy low and sell high but our main problem is the timing when to do it not only in buying but also in selling.

Because in time of bull season, we can see that the market are continuing to grow and we are having a difficulty in selling our assets as we are thinking that maybe the price will still goes up. So the best option option for this one especially if you have bought some BTC during the crash is that, you should decide to yourself if what is your selling target price so you don't have to worry whether the price will goes up/down.

Do Holders actually bought BTC during the crash?

I think they would but it all depends on their current situation.
I mean people in this times first want not BTC, not new TV but toilet paper. Then food, then some common luxuries like alcohol in general.
Only then if they have spare cash they would buy more BTC to HODL because BTC was created for this exact reason to HOLD value in times with big corporations bailouts by taking from everyone with inflation (brrrrrrrrt)

[Sadlife]

Im also one of the guys who panic buys during a crash because we've seen time in time again that after a major crash just like what happened recently when Bitcoin fluctuated all the way down to $3000 level that's where i've bought, a major rebound also spikes. Just like the famous saying when everyone is selling that's the right time to buy.
Right now, im happy cause i've bought at a really low price and longing my position.

[bestBTCdomains]

I think not all of the holders are buying btc just because the bitcoin has been crashed or being stack on it but because they are afraid to buy so much because they don't have guaranteed that the bitcoin will eventually arise again just like what happen before. This probably the main idea why the people ate not buying bitcoin even it is cheaper but because they are more scared that something bad might happens.

If we are talking about holders, possible that they will buy in time like this as it will be an opportunities to them to hold more assets inside their wallets.

Investors/holders always aimed for best position especially if they are believing that what they've investing with will bring them good outcome after.

nice then  . i think only few people anticipated the crash and few who of them who have also bought because majority was just on panic mode , they sell coins  . i hate to say this but im one of those who did sell at a verry low price   .  i have no choice because i also need the money that time  .  i need because that was the time our place announce an incoming lockdown where no markets available after some days  but real hodlers that dedicate thier money for the crash were not be botherd by the situation  .  they continue what they started with full confidence that coins can recover and pump still in the future

[meanwords]

If you didn't buy during the last crash, you'll regret it and you probably won't be ever seeing it again. Fear just makes us doubt everything even though that thing proves to us that it can recover over and over again. Weak hands shouldn't invest in Bitcoin in the first place anyway. And those who sold because it's an emergency, they should have an emergency funds in the first place when investing to prevent panic selling, it's common sense.

I didn't bought during $4,000 since I was probably asleep so I only got $4,900.

[lienfaye]

Probably thats what a long term hodler do, waiting for an opportunity to accumulate more and taking advantage the crash.

While weak investors are panic selling to cut losses and quit. Thats why its best to have a plan so you dont need to worry incase the price is declining since you have a target price on when to sell and for how long to hold it.

Holders are patient and wise because they know the nature on how the crypto market works.

[Debonaire217]

Everyone love to do it, but not everyone has been granted the chance to accumulate as many bitcoin as they want. I have read a news a while ago that most of the Japanese people have bought up bitcoins, I too, have taken advantage of the market but with my fund available, I just bought a little amount. Well, it is evident to the market graph of bitcoin that the support in selling is strong, and many are waiting for the right opportunity to buy and for me, the price in 5k bitcoin is already a go signal for hodlers to buy bitcoins.

[jems]

I think the decline is the right time to buy, yes some people do that with the belief that the market will be better in the future. But remember, we cannot buy without research results.

[Tipstar]

Almost all of the holders are sure that bitcoin would again hit it's new all time high and they are targeting that level at least to sell. When the prices decreases, they take it as an opportunity to decrease their average cost of a coin. That is also the reason why the price is not going lower than this. For most, the average price is now below 9K and about half of them might have below 7K.

[carlisle1]

I regret that i did not Buy even more and hesitate when the Big dump happened(though i bought some but not the whole funds that i have that time) and now i really regret my decisions.

from the past i always say i will bought more once the price fell down to 4k level but i fail my desire.
lucky all those who bought mane because they are in profit of 50% or more now.

[Janation]

People should always check the price charts.

With the price dumps, obviously people would be taking that for granted and obviously, people would be checking first the chart for some indicators using some strategies like a candlestick. Always remember that doesn't mean the price dumps, you will be buying immediately since we never know what might happen, it might just be the start of the dump.
