What kind type of market player you are?

[TelolettOm]

Isn't it when we don't really know what will happen in the future including speculators? In any case?
Just as most people have predicted that Bitcoin prices will continue to soar a few months ago. The analysis was very done carefully and thoroughly and filled with calculations.
But suddenly the market dropped even more than -40% at that time because of some FUDs.
Then, don't both investors and traders also mean speculators?
However, in this case, a speculator is like what he is, the speculator is only speculating without analysis and analysis. If without more analysis to the origin of guess and luck.

I like being an investor and trader. I have never practiced it before thanks to bitcoin for making it possible.
I wish other people can know how to get started with bitcoin.
It is time for more people to enter our space. I am anxious to see the impact of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies in my region of Latin America.
Because we will be a good point of reference for development, especially for reducing the poor and increasing employment rates.

Returning to the topic of being an investor and a trader. It is important when we support decentralized finance projects with our investments because we allow technological advancement in this sector. According to the statistics the trader activities are providing a new income to the individuals by which I can confirm this data.

Not being big on the technicalities that you will require in order to become an effective trader, I mostly dabble on investments and put my money on the ones that I saw are able to weather whatever crisis is put through them like bitcoin and ethereum. Speculations I do sometimes but only on coins I believe will give me profit in the long run once again. This has been very effective for me despite the fact that as a speculator I basically just eye out a coin and whether I invest or not is based on if I like the coin's model or not.

You know what this makes sense, at least putting the so-called speculators in a much more desirable spectrum rather than be labeled as blindly following a coin they like. Sometimes we don't really know if a coin is gonna pump or dump in the future but we do have graphs and sources of info that could help us predict the price and make an educated guess.

- INVESTOR = an investor puts capital to use for long-term profit.
- TRADER = a trader seeks to make short-term profits by buying and selling over and over again.
- SPECULATOR = a speculator just gambles and hopes that other parties will dare to pay higher his/her tokens or coins later.

i'm an investor, not very trading savvy, just buy Bitcoin and some Altcoins for long-term.  How about you friend?

Investors, I have an altcoin on my portfolio that considering a huge amount aside from Bitcoin and I believed that these coins that I picked into my portfolio will give the highest ROI when the right time will come.  Once these coins were on my cold wallet, I will never touch them again or open my cold wallet because they are intended for a long-term investment.

Sometimes I do trade on the leading exchange now but that is spot trading, I don't like day trading it gives me more stress because I'm a kinda busy person because I have a job and small business in a real life.  So the choices are on investor and the spot trading or long-term trading.

[Xinarae*]

I usually prefer to invest because the risk is much less here and it is much more profitable to invest in currencies like bitcoin for a long period of time. Not too efficient for other businesses for professional players they can make a profit in all kinds of business they have a good knowledge of the market investment is not a lottery ticket if luck is good, it will make you much richer in an instant. This is called gambling and you can play it at least there are some rules of the game and you can calculate exactly where your differences are.

[breathlessz]

I am more inclined towards investors, because I am looking for safety of funds, and also I am still learning to trade. for speculators, I guess I still haven't dared to lose the funds, because they are very valuable to me. but in the future maybe I will do all three to achieve financial freedom, I realize to achieve it requires a long process

I am also an investor. because I don't really understand about analyzing and understanding the market situation. I only buy when the coin is going down and sell when the coin is going up. even so I do not have large funds for long-term investment. that's why i only buy big coins like bitcoin and ethereum. it's much safer when I hold it long term. and these two coins still have hope of going up. so I just need to believe and patiently wait.

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

For now it seems that I prefer to apply the principle of long-term investment in bitcoin, let's say a speculative investor with a top marketcap coin. and also for the last few years I have been saving regularly in crypto, in the past I might have traded more often with short-term daily and now I may be more relaxed and not watch the market chart every hour maybe just a few days. because if it is required to hold long term mentally and financially I am ready.

I don't completely agree with these three types of people in the market as I think that investors in crypto also speculate on it, as they buy and wait for the price to increase in some years. But it always increases when there are people who want to buy, and it pumps the price. So I am an investor, as I buy Bitcoin and don’t sell it any more now, because I am going to wait 5 and more years, and I believe that other parties will dare to pay higher for it later.

[Ngemmeng]

I am the same as you, I am an investor who buys altcoins at very low prices. I bought an altcoin which I think its price could increase very high in the future. I'm not an investor with a large capital, so I don't think it's appropriate to invest in bitcoin or ethereum. The capital I use is purely from bounties and airdrops, and I also use the money for daily needs.

I am also like you, I am an investor too
My basic is programming and I work in a small IT company, I don't have much time to pay attention to market conditions or others

I once tried to be a trader but ended up being a speculator and panicked during a bear market
I am trying to change my perception to continue investing in Bitcoin and other potential altcoins for the long term and will not sell my crypto assets for necessities because I still have a salary at my offline job

Robert kiyosaki also had a rich dad and a poor dad... and his poor dad was a hard working employer with a Pension Fund. The problem is, his poor dad never acquired the skills and knowledge to be an investor or a trader or a speculator. His rich dad on the other hand, acquired the knowledge and he was very successful when he applied it.

Traditional investing back then had a lot of barriers to entry for the unskilled, because the rich wanted to stay rich to hold onto the power. Now, with Crypto currencies..... ANYONE can still have their day job and also be an investor or a trader or a speculator ..or all three. 

[bluebit25]

I find myself getting all the things the OP gave me. After many years of being involved in this field, the trust I have with it is really strong, I feel that I will stick with and accompany this market as part of my life.

If we really don't have much time to monitor prices in the market, and don't have good analytical skills too, it's best not to force trading. Because
there we will be speculators and can lose all the capital we have, not everyone can succeed in profiting from trading. Indeed, the reality of trading is
not as easy as we imagine, so it's better to be an investor. Because being an investor is much easier and there is no need to monitor the market
too often, we only need to buy potential coins on a regular basis and hold until we reach the target we want.

[Silberman]

Well, investor also has two categories.
First is the long term investors. Second, the get rich quick mindset newbie investors. Though some of them aren't really a newbie at all, just a FOMOer who usually rides to a pumping shitcoin lol.
Seriously, all of them are called investors, may it be short or long term trader, a speculator, or even a manipulator. Once you put your money into a stock, cryptocurrency, or forex you're called investor.

While it is true that investors come in all kind of forms and sizes at the same time a great deal of those newbies investors do not really do a lot of the things that investors need to do in order to try to make sure they are taking the right decisions, and this is problematic because a few of them are able to make money the very first time they invest and then they believe that they do not really need anything else in order to succeed only to realize this is not the case but by the time they recognize this most likely a great deal of their money has been lost to the markets already.

[finaleshot2016]

I switched from being an investor to a trader because I wanted to take advantage of the potential to expand my money, and joining the market craze is one of the simplest methods to do it.

But most of the time, I'm just a simple investor holding my assets; I've been here since 2016 and my portfolio is still doing well, and I'm still waiting for a simple x10 market pump.

To be honest, shifting from an investor to a trader is not easy; you must consider all of the essentials, such as market analysis.

[TheGreatPython]

I will put out a part of the funds for long-term holding, and also use a part of the funds for contracts or leverage. Long-term holding is because you believe in the market. I still think that long-term holding is the most correct approach, but why should I take some speculation? If I hold the currency for a long time, I will become insensitive to the market. I will start not paying attention to the market, not paying attention to the market, not paying attention to the news, not paying attention to new products. This will make me regress, so I will do a good job of fund allocation, long-term holding can go to some DEFI products for financial management, speculators can exercise their sensitivity to the market, and keep pace with the market.

This is basically what keeps anyone going. I have seen people who do only long term investment and that's good, but they end up basically putting it there and forgetting about it and not even checking up what is going on in crypto world, I could ask them what the price of bitcoin is today and they may not end up knowing it. Is this really bad? Not really, if it works for them then it is a good way to make a profit out of crypto world.

However I like crypto way too much to stop checking it out, so what did I do? Most of my investment is in btc-eth-bnb and for very long term, I am not trading them or selling them, I have 2-3 other smaller coins that I invest long term as well but in very small amounts. Whatever is left after those investments goes straight into risky stuff, defi, trading, leverages (rarely) and everything else, even got myself an NFT once.

[Dragonfund]

I'm not only an investor but also a bit of a trader. I usually make long-term investments but sometimes I prefer short-term ones also. And I make the short-term investments with altcoins rather than Bitcoin. Because I don't think that Bitcoin is very ideal for that.

Been a good trader is more profitable than investing a time. There was a period I checked my PNL on my trading portfolio and I was wow how I made 300% within 19 days and the only coin I was scalping then was SXP, thanks to their testnet news that was coming up, it boosted the market volume and many where buying.
It's good to be an investor though, there are some pumps one shouldn't dare to trade, it's better off you hold while your portfolio dances to profits.

[EvieLannister]

Everyone is basically an investor and a trader,
I am an investor and trader, but in fact I prefer speculation. I now hold Bitcoin and Ethereum for a long time. For altcoins, I tend to trade frequently, and I will also pay attention to some new tokens. Although there are risks, some of them have higher profits.

[ROSERTY]

I prefer investing and trading.

• Investing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies with a long history of development and complete technology, as the use of cryptocurrencies increases and people's consensus increases, the value of cryptocurrencies will rise, and long-term holding will make a lot of profits.
• Choose some cryptocurrencies by analyzing market trends, pay attention to price fluctuations, and buy and sell at the right time. Gain benefits through short-term transactions.
