What portion of Bitcoin assets are you willing to sell?

[m2017]

It has been said many times that should invest in bitcoin only a part of your money, not all of it, and certainly not borrowed or credited money. But what about when BTC reach ATH and you are ready to sell bitcoin, you should also sell only a part of BTC, not all of it. Do something like diversification. If something goes wrong in the future (bitcoin collapses or is banned), then “now” you will make a profit, and if bitcoin becomes much more expensive, then you will have a part of BTC left for this, and the current sale at a relatively low price will not affect your future profit.

What part (in percent) of bitcoin that you have are you ready to sell “now” (at a favorable exchange rate for you or reaching ATH), and what part will you leave until better times?

P.S. Given the deflationary model of bitcoin, there can be no talk of a complete sale (of all available) of this asset.

The answer will be different for each individual. For sure, no one should invest all their money into Bitcoin because of its volatile nature. But when it comes to selling, it really depends on an individual's need for liquidity.

Personally, I would not sell off my Bitcoins for many more years to come considering I have a day job and not immediately looking for liquidity. Any emergency need of money can be met from the savings.

Bitcoin is an asset for the future and I strongly believe that it has the power to create generational wealth.

I'll sell all of my Bitcoins when it reaches the ATH… or at least near to it because we don't know what will be the exact ATH price of Bitcoin when the bull run happens.
I will not leave any single Satoshi on my wallet once I start to sell.

I know that there are some who prefer holding a portion of their Bitcoins for a very long time, and there's nothing wrong with it. As for me, I believe in 4-year market cycles and if the bull run happens next year (highly likely), a few months after that, the bear market will start again, giving us another chance to accumulate Bitcoins at a much lower price. This is what I believe hence, holding a portion of my Bitcoin to hold even longer doesn't make any sense to me, and if there's an opportunity to sell, I'll grab it same as when there's an opportunity for us to buy at a much lower price. As an investor, I prioritize profit more than anything, and there's nothing wrong with it, right?

At the end of the day, we have different strategies, or plans with the Bitcoin that we are holding currently. Some might sell it all (like me), some might sell half, or a huge portion, or some might not sell at all. As long as we make profit then it's all good.

What portion of Bitcoin assets are you willing to sell?

To sell for fiat? Not that much, only if necessary. But when it comes to spending coins, and selling BTC for goods and services, then it is 100%, as every other coin, or anything valuable.

What part (in percent) of bitcoin that you have are you ready to sell

For fiat? Probably something around 1%, maybe even 0.1%. For altcoins, it is probably even 0.01%. For everything else, my plan is to make a transaction, and receive goods and services for those coins. If necessary, it could go through some kind of payment processor, but obviously I would prefer a direct payment.

and what part will you leave until better times?

I am not waiting for better times. For example, I spend some BTCs to buy food. I also bought a laptop for BTCs. I rent some servers for BTCs. It is normal to use a coin for payments.

Given the deflationary model of bitcoin, there can be no talk of a complete sale (of all available) of this asset.

Why not? Those who are willing to always save their coins for the future, usually miss a lot of opportunities to actually make their coins useful, and buy something. I am not going to become a millionaire, only to die as a rich person, and have all of that splitted between my family members. It is one of the worst possible options, because then, those who can effortlessly get some coins for free, are a good candidates for spending them all, and quickly becoming poor.

I would cash out my investment amount.  Let us say I have invested $5k  before Bitcoin rallies to new ATH, I would sell that part making sure that what I am holding is the one I profited.  This way, I have gotten my ROI and can use to to my next investment, may it be repurchasing Bitcoin when the Bitcoin market transitions to bear market or any kind of good investment venture I come across with.

To explain it further, saying I have invested $5k  and during the ATH Bitcoin 3x in value, so it makes my fund to grow to $15k value of Bitcoin.  I sell the amount of Bitcoin worth $5k to make sure I already ROI and keep the remaining until I feel like selling them all.

I intend to sell eighty per cent of my total Bitcoin holding. This is my first bull run, so I am just getting my first experience. Like you said, I want to diversify my income. I intend to own some other businesses, and selling my Bitcoin will facilitate them. One such company is to invest in real estate. My country has a population explosion and buying land or buildings can be profitable. The price of land, houses and rent is skyrocketing. But I will never stop DCAing because the cycle doesn't stop. I am also considering engaging in a lump sum strategy from the profits I make from other businesses.  

I had so much enthusiasm this year because of the publicity Bitcoin got from the Spot Bitcoin ETF, so my target then was about $100,000. Now I have reduced my expectations to $80,000 and will sell if it gets to that price or above.

If you're holding bitcoin, then before you can make a sell, it have to be on the kind of holder you're, those that are into trading may not want to release their asset completely like that, because they have it been diversified, others having a long time investment of bitcoin will prefer to see it achieve a all time high of $100,000 or more, though this is actually my own perception as well on my holdings, that i be able to sell when the market at this rate is achieved between now and next year.

The bigger portion of my bitcoin asset will be intended for my retirement so most likely, I would only sell 20% of it when bitcoin reaches its new ATH this current cycle. The rest will be considered for future hodling, not just for me but definitely for the future of my family as well  as I became more motivated to enter into bitcoin investment because I have my family who is my inspiration.

[Nwada001]

I have always been of the opinion of not holding my bitcoin just like that without making any transactions with them. I have different selling targets for each of my holdings, which means when ever bitcoin achieves that price I will have to sell some part of it to realise profit, even if I don't have something that I'm doing with the money for that time. I will hold the stable coins and rebuy when ever price drops below what I also expect. 
 
If I'm to give a figure, I will say I prefer to sell at least 40–50% of my holdings each time I see a new ATH in order for me to see a benefit of that pump before the market drops down again, and even if it goes above that level, I won't have to complain.

[Odohu]

The truth is that I did not start building my Bitcoin portfolio early so the quantity of Bitcoin I have now is far lower than what I expect to have, so generally, I'm still at the accumulation stage and not really thinking about selling now irrespective of what the price of Bitcoin becomes. My emphasis is not on the dollar value of my portfolio but on the quantity of Bitcoin. Therefore, I will continue buying until I get the number I set in mind. I'm using the DCA method and a little bit of buying the dips and I have committed just a small fraction of my income to the business so that I will not be pressured to sell anytime soon.

Some many think that selling during the peak to buy back during bear season is a wonderful strategy but that is not something I feel I can effectively do so to above mistakes, I rather leave my funds in Bitcoin until I get to my target.

[Ojima-ojo]

This can not be assumed but practiced, because we may assume that we have set limits of how much of our bitcoin holding we are willing to sell at all time high price, such determinant factors like the present conditions of the investor at that point in time and also how much is the total bitcoin asset holding and for how long.


Bitcoin holding is a journey and for any investors to succeed in their bitcoin accumulation jurney, there is the need to constantly prepar to buy more when the price is at low discounted price, because by so doing you show a high level of smart move because at that point the amount that  of bitcoin buy is higher than sell ambitions.

I think that's a good point, if we really want to make as much money from this as we want to, then we should be holding as much as we can. Of course we can sell just a bit to take some of the profits and search for further profits in other stuff as well, but not to spend on luxury stuff, we should keep on investing and making more money, that would be a better way, and I think it will definitely benefit everyone as well.

I know that it's going to be something that will take a while, but we shouldn't really be worrying about it and we should be considering that as something that will take a while. Just keep on holding for as long as you can, and whenever you divest, use that to invest into others that can make you even more money.

I haven't thought of this yet on how much exactly and what percentage I'd sell but, whatever the quantity that I am willing to sell when that time comes then I'll just let it happen and slide. So, I am coming in between that I've got some balls and ready to sell when the ATH comes or near to it and will continue to hold a portion of it. It's hard to give numbers because we'll never know on how much we'd actually sell by that time and there can be a lot of changes that can happen in actuality so, I can't tell numbers.

This is actually the right question that every investor needs to ask them selves, I have always been advocating the fact that everyone should actually have a take profit target this shouldn’t be at a specific time but should be correlated with price, Like taking a profit at $100k instead of setting a specific time like a year to take profit because bitcoin can still fail to reach the desired price before that period.

As for me I have close to 30% of my portfolio that I bought below $30k that I have set aside to sell if the bitcoin goes beyond the $100k price mark. I have predicted it to be around the year 2025 and of it gets achieved the money will be used to set up a local business in my environment as part of my diversification strategy. The profits from this business if we start to make one will be use to buy the upcoming dip I expect in the year 2026. This is currently my plan but the human nature can still change if some situations arises

Even though I agree about not selling all the assets at once when the price reaches a certain point because there is always a possibility of it going higher, I believe sometimes we are better off selling, especially if the possibilities of the market crashing after a certain point are higher which means if we sell and hold liquid assets, we can get more coins when the market crashes. But then again, it's all just based on possibilities.

For me, personally, it would depend on the market situation and the sentiment. Doing some research and observing the market for a little while can give you a slight idea whether you should sell or hold. If the price is intriguing but there is a possibility of a dip, I might sell a portion. If I see there are strong chances of the bear cycle hitting the market, I might sell everything and wait.

[BitcoinBarrel]

Bitcoin ROI is getting smaller and smaller as time goes on. I will gladly sell all my crypto if an opportunity comes along that produces a higher ROI.

You can always buy more Bitcoin.

I'll add, that Bitcoin is a great store of value, but what good is value if it's not utilized? Wealth is gained through investments, not locking your gold in a box.

In 2017, I sold everything and then started from scratch to accumulate as much as I can. And so the same decision I made, although I'm kinda late to sell everything in 2022 because of some circumstances.

However, I don't know, I'm thinking of just selling a small portion in this bull and not everything. My reasoning is that Bitcoin is really getting scarce and we all know that almost all Bitcoin has been mined already. Although 20 million now, and so the supply is dwindling but I'm expecting that the demand is going to be high in the next 2 or 3 halvings and so it's better to just sell some but keep at least a portion of it.

Given that the price would've reached high enough, I probably would sell all ngl. Bitcoin has often tended to crash down after some ATH was reached so once I sell at the peak, I would 100% sell everything and just re-enter the market a few weeks later when the prices have calmed down. I don't really see any advantage in trying sell only a part or even continue my DCA since the better plan there is just to restart the whole cycle itself imo.

Yes, that's what I have seen before, after the peak and the bull run, we might want to sell everything and then just go back once the price goes down because obviously, we will see a bear season after, and the market going to crash. So at least, if you are holding for that cycle, then maybe it's time to take profits and enjoy it.

And then you put up another strategy in the bear market, accumulate, accumulate and more.

So for me, I will sell 100% of my stash this bull run. And just rinse and repeat my strategy for the next cycle. Others might not agree with my method though, but this has been effective for me as this is my bull run.

[Poker Player]

It's not a thing that I have predetermined but the general rule of thumb is that as stated in the OP, never sell everything. And I would say for quite some time it will be to not sell much, like 50% of my holdings at most in an extreme case but it will probably be less than that. I prefer to keep accumulating, building wealth, both with Bitcoin and other assets. The time will come to stop accumulating so much and enjoy the nest egg, but for that it better be big enough, so that you can keep eating eggs without loading up the nest egg or even while it keeps getting bigger.
