Are you still holding your coins #btc

[Hispo]

Still holding strong  and only selling the satoshis necessary to support family when they ask me to.
Time in the market beats timing the market (I have read). 
I expect not to sell until the next bull run or next halving, in the mean we are in the perfect time to DCA, slowly.

This is a market not for those afraid of volatility.

History shows that selling at the halving (without intention to buy the subsequent dip) is selling too early, that is if your goal is to maximise your return. Appreciate that "when is a good time to sell" is purely a subjective manner.

There's no need to buy fiat with Bitcoin really.

You can do very well by saving in Bitcoin and then buying whatever you need, like a house, car, etc, whenever you need it.

The whole point of buying fiat is a bit strange because at best it's a gamble to see if you can time the market right.

Guys, I want to ask you but I'm I should make a thread  Umm yesterday I found it on binance maybe some of you already know it before it call dual investment so basically you sell bitcoin at a certain price with a settlement date, you can't withdraw it before it touches the settlement date come but the interesting part is you can earn interest when your bitcoin on hold and the apr is high

[cozytrade]

I still hold on to my bitcoins, because I invest for the long term, not the short term. and for me selling bitcoin if you don't make big profits doesn't feel good. because for me selling bitcoin later when the price is high, or when the market is a bull run.

I invested bitcoins for some time but after seeing some profit from it I sold them. Now if I could have kept those bitcoins, I could have sold them for several times the price at which I sold the bitcoins. So now I realize that I am never short term.  Don't invest for  If you can invest and wait with a cool head, you will get many times more profit.

Yes, I'm still capable of holding a bitcoin for a perfect time for bitcoin to move on due to the way I'm thinking, I don't rush for everything, although I know the bitcoin aspect so it is my choice to do what I want and I am seeing that the bitcoin price is getting interested a little bit, just can't wait for a perfect time to release it, success to my fellow holders and my fellow members.

2022 was certainly a bloody year for bitcoin investors and many drama played out in the crypto space but all that said we have manage to cross the year successfully to 2023.
  

2023 is going to be another year of major speculation on the rate on when we are going to experience another bull run and eventually reaching another ATH.

 As 2022 was seen as a disastrous year for some bitcoin holders, it was also seen as an golden opportunity for new comers like me who missed out in buying when bitcoin was very low before it experienced a major rise in the year 2020. We have bought bitcoin now thats it price is very low and we are expecting to hodl it till when another bull run season comes hopefully we can see it reach another all-time-high.

So am curious to know if everyone is still holding or have chicken out and sold theirs.

Dramatic events are taking place in my country, which have resulted in, in particular, a drop in the standard of living of the population.  

Goods and services have become very expensive.  So I partially sold my bitcoins to pay my utility bills and stock up on food and essentials. I understand that the price of Bitcoin is currently very low and will rise in the future.  

In my opinion, there is no need to sell your bitcoins at this time.  We need to wait for the beginning of the bull market.

You actually have the courage and faith in Bitcoin. A long-term holder couldn't be easily affected by what it happens around you because a person like you is totally aiming for the next Bullrun, such a perfect time to sell though.

However, I don't hate those people who are selling their Bitcoin this time because I feel the needs of these people as well. Those who are not ready yet to embrace as a holder will fall into a life as trader. Some are very certain about Buy Low and Sell High, they no longer hold if they see a profit already.

Apart from still saving now, I'm also still trying to set aside my money for DCA every month because indeed when the previous price was below $ 20k this obviously made me more tempted but now when it's above $ 20k I'm still trying to buy every week regardless of what what will happen later, whether it is a decrease or a further increase, I will still be DCA until the target of $ 30k is exceeded, then I will stop.
This was a chance I had tasted something sweet years before and now I think I'll be tasting it again in a few years to come.

Here's my earning breakdown.

40% for holding for long term
30% for trading
20% for DCA allocation
10% for some spending or buying up something.

Some are also done with altcoins too and not only focusing with Bitcoin but in overall, im trying to deal up with
other coins just to accumulate even more Bitcoins and vice versa.

Doesnt matter on which one you are engaging with as long you could able to save up and accumulate further.

I'm still holding. Sold some and holds some.

That's the game on this market, whoever gets out first might be happy if the timing is perfect and that's the peak time of bitcoin. But those that have sold due to some circumstances that have been unforeseen, they would still have it as a call that they've sold in profit.

I've got a long term game plan for bitcoin and I know that I'm doing the right thing. Just as everybody who are optimistic on its future gains and fundamentals, so do I.

[lepbagong]

from the choices that are asked, it is clear that at this time to vote "done have btc", indeed it is real. To save BTC so far I haven't been able to do it and only low value altcoins can be held and stored. If I have clearer funds later I will allocate it to BTC, because I am optimistic that in time it will increase greatly.

2022 is true what you said, that is a very unfriendly year for investors who already have savings but for those who don't yet it is a year of grace because of the opportunity to be able to buy cheaply and save waiting until the bull market comes.
but I'm not sure that this year will turn to improvement and I'm still very sure it will be the same as last year maybe even more corrected, because that's when it starts to reflect to move up in 2024.

[landheer]

Maybe the newbies are the only ones that chickened out and sold their bitcoins when the price bounced back to $20k+ happened. The more experienced forum members probably have the halving year and the following year on their minds right now. The pre-halving year just started so why sell our bitcoins right away when according to the bitcoin price history, the halving year and the following year always reach higher than its last ATHs? We need to HODL and buy more while bitcoin hasn't reached half of its former ATH value.

indeed, most beginners like that sometimes always sell it when there is an increase even though the increase is only a little, in fact, not only beginners but many who are experienced in bitcoin too, join in selling it because it is usually due to  predictions. and thought that bitcoin would fall even deeper. and will buy again from lower price.

[Maestro75]

Am still keeping mine and that is the little I have earned doing signature campaigns and will continue to do so . My plan is not to spend any from it till 2024. I want to see what happens then. I only check my wallet once in a while to see what level of appreciation is going on. And so far it has been on the rise. In the past, that is 2022 I sold almost all that I kept aside. This year will be different, am not going to sell any bit this year. I want to be among those who are holding.

[Hypnosis00]

I hope I could but sometimes we need to do so for a very important reason. But I'd never feel any regrets about doing it because at least I earn some since I bought them at $18,200 and then sell at $20,500. Well, that is not bad at all but again, if I already have another option, I would really love to hold it until the next Bullrun, yet the time hasn't given me some favor. So, anyone who is not selling their Bitcoin, congratulations because you are making far from being tempted by the few pumps. There is a huge reward that awaits you years from now.

Is this allocation of your total funds or a calculation of budgeted money for cryptocurrency? If this is just a calculation of your budget to invest in cryptocurrency then it is fine but if you calculate this way to invest all of your total assets in cryptocurrency then you will face a big danger at some point. Cryptocurrencies you must invest in.  But it should be 5 to 10% of your total assets. And the rest of the money you can invest in different assets and different types of business that will protect you from all sides.  So never depend on only one thing. Bitcoin is a potential and very valuable asset so it is foolish to depend only on Bitcoin

Actually, it wasn't easy for Bitcoin holders to continue holding their Bitcoin throughout all the drama we have seen in 2022. The number of black swan events this cycle was higher than the number of events in any of the previous cycles, as well as the FUD was going on all over that period, thus I believe a lot of holders sold in a hope to buy cheaper, which hasn't happened as Bitcoin unexpectedly started to shift its trend. For me, instead of selling, I was buying more according to a DCA strategy. The last price I bought at was 16.5k, thankfully.

[coolcoinz]

I still hold coins from 2015 and I'm going to do it regardless of the price. If I suddenly saw an exchange price of 100k USD tomorrow, I wouldn't sell because I'd be suspicious of this and feel like someone is buying us out with fiat money knowing something big is going to happen like a US defaulting on its debt or something.
I'd probably sell a bit like 0.1 to test them out in case this was some kind of a bug I could take advantage of, but that's all. I guess I'm attached to my coins in a strange way, or maybe I don't see a reason to give it up so cheap. I'll wait until I can buy things that I need directly, without having to go through fiat gateway in order to do so.

He said "earning breakdown" so this must be the earnings that he got from his crypto activities and as we can see he just return most of it to cryptos to be able to grow it again. Earnings from his other side hustles may not be included there. We should not invest all of our money in crypto because there are still risks as we don't know what's coming up ahead.

Maybe the coin that we invest go down for some reason, something like that and there is no way for them to recover anymore. So, it's always better to use only amounts which you can afford to lose easily. A serious investors know how to diversify. They can mitigate the risk by also investing in a less volatile assets.
