My message to Hodlers

[nakamura12]

If someone did hodl bitcoin starting from 2022 then they should have earned a lot of profit since the price at that time was around 15k-16k in dollars and when it increase to 40k later on then that's already a sure profit if they sold at that price and when it increase more up to 100k so that's a total of 84k increase from 16k price bitcoin on 2022. I am sure that there will be new things or tech that is implemented or made like ETFs so, it will become a news and maybe affect the price of bitcoin to increase.

[qurbanshah02]

It is indeed a good suggestion, however, there are many Bitcoin investors who are new to the field of investment, they are always at risk when investing and they get more scared after watching the panic videos on various social media, which has a very bad effect on investment. However, if they consider it from a historical perspective, although it always fluctuates, it has been pumping a lot compared to dumping, which is currently the highest. So in my opinion, the price of Bitcoin will increase further, which will not disappoint investors and will make them more interested in investing.

If there's newbie holder and they are panicking, just let them see the ROI stat of the long term holders. Those wildly outperform 90% of traders by just holding it long term.

Just buy and forget and they're already outperforming 90% of people in the market and save them from the current high inflation. As easy as that.

We will find more people here who want to get this and benefit from invest in it which is why they are nervous before start this work. And we should inform people about it so that people can also benefit and remember us with good word. If you have this informa you can tell about it and people can benefit from it.

This is a very encourage work which is why we should buy it and do the same.We should also tell those people who are not interest in it and do not consider it a good work.They will also be very impress by it and will be able to benefit from it and like it which is why they will also be able to benefit from it.

No matter how long you decide to hold, you can't take all the profit that Bitcoin will give; you take what you can. If you are to continue with the mentality of we don't know what the future holds for Bitcoin, some people stack up and will never have to move from their wallet.

It's okay to hold for long, but we should always know when to take profit. We don't only receive a salary because we have problems to solve; there are always bills to pay and lives to elevate, and one should not feel sorry because they sell too early.

No one should depend on their bitcoin long term investment for bills payments. But if you say lives to elevate, I will understand with you. The theme of my message is to avoid panic selling. We shouldn't sell because the price is $100k, we shouldn't sell because others are selling. If you have a thought out plan to exit the market, there's no crime doing so, provided you know what you are doing.
Also, my advice is for those that sell and wait to rebuy, it might be long to see a rebuy opportunity again if the market triggers the momentum it's holding.

This is a cool advice, not for someone like me because I believe I've gotten past this stage, your advice is good for people who are still new to Bitcoin investments, we have seen a lot of Bitcoin good news in the past and since the beginning Bitcoin have always respect its four years cycle, they always rimes even if they don't follow the past.

In this crypto space an investor have to take profit even if they plan to hold for ten years to come, if I bought my Bitcoin at 70k and sold at 100k I am in profits already, I can just wait for months and buy back at the new low, maybe 30k or 40k, it's going to happen because volatility is part of Bitcoin and it will always be.

Even if all higher institutions a d central banks of the world buy Bitcoin they can't erase its volatility part, it will always go up and down but one thing as proven to be the best way to buy, when there is massive panic in the market, no one believe that Bitcoin will be back at 15k in 2022-2023 just because Bitcoin topped at 70k.

5. More companies and institutions.
6. More countries
It will definitely be massive.  Sell only if you have a problem to solve or a project to execute. Don't sell in order to have funds to rebuy when the market is down. It might never come, the 4 year cycle might be altered. Time for panick selling is gone in BTC.

It is best not to worry about selling Bitcoin at the moment, because where big companies and holders are buying Bitcoin, it is best for small holders like us to follow the DCA method for holding Bitcoin. As time goes by, the demand for Bitcoin is increasing day by day because different countries have started accepting Bitcoin, so it is natural for its demand to increase at present.
However, we must have something to do in this case because we who are small holders should definitely rush towards Bitcoin investment most aggressively. We can follow the Bitcoin DCA method either weekly or monthly, and according to this method, it is the only easy way to deposit Bitcoin.

[xvacator]

The point of your message will be keep hodling. That is what I understand because this current situation is not easy to manage our emotion especially for new investors. They can learn from the Bitcoin hodler so they can survive in this hard situation.

While the market still not back to the last ATH, that means we have more chance to accumulate in the lower price. We will see a new movement from Bitcoin which mean that can be a rally to back or break to the last ATH. The situation now still unpredicted so we need to be ready for anything that may come.

[shield132]

My dear Hodler, if you have been hodling for a long time, even when the future of bitcoin is not certain, this is your period of reward. I know that very old hodlers are in great profits already.

If you started hodling from the 2022 bear market, you are already in good profits. You can decide to exit the market, but I am scared you might regret in the future as it has always been.

If you have been hodling when only whales directs the market and determine the bull run, think about what is in the future now that we have;
1. The whales
2. ETF
3. Trump and US
4. Aggressive Michael Saylor
5. More companies and institutions.

I've always been against hodling because I believe that in order to make Bitcoin widely accepted and make the network work well, we need to use Bitcoin for making transactions but at the same time, I see that the situation is changing. Bitcoin is becoming a store of value, it changes my vision. Now I think that it's time to hodl because governments are going to create Bitcoin backed reserves, corporations like BlackRock are acquiring thousands of Bitcoins. Now tell me, shouldn't we hold it tight? We should try our best to keep as much Bitcoins in our hands as possible, we shouldn't let governments and big organizations to take away control and supply from us.

Now is the time to hold like never before. Governments are going to heavily invest into it, corporations are already heavily investing into it. Why should someone think that Bitcoin's price will fall? A small dump means nothing and in reality, it's very healthy and necessary.

I am sure that there will be new things or tech that is implemented or made like ETFs so, it will become a news and maybe affect the price of bitcoin to increase.

I still believe that if someone has at least a basic understanding of market cycles and knows about Bitcoin, with 2 or 3 full cycles starting from this one, it's already possible to completely change their standard of living. We're talking about a multiplication of at least 5X per cycle. Bitcoin is phenomenal... and during bear markets, it's possible to accumulate more and more, and also to start other ventures to grow your capital.

[Y3shot]

I get that it's tough but I also get that it is just holding, and many people do it, and companies too, and even nations now. So, just do what the yare doing and you will make money like they are making money during holding period.

It seems tough for those who don't understand Bitcoin but want to invest to get rich quickly. However, for those who understand what they are investing in, accumulating and holding Bitcoin won't be difficult because one can buy with an amount they can afford and will be consistent in accumulating Bitcoin.

 Holding won't be a challenge because the understanding is already there and one needs to have patience to hold Bitcoin for a long time. As long as one truly understands the benefits of holding Bitcoin, there won't be a challenge in investing in Bitcoin and holding it for the future.

Hold as long as you can. But don't also miss the time when you can make some profit. Despite the positive outlook for bitcoin's future, we still remind ourselves that we never know exactly what will happen the next day. So I say to sell some during bull season. This never means we are worried, but this is a smart decision (for me). We did this because we already have the opportunity. We can reinvest and start our journey again.

We make the market more active through continuous buying and selling. Holding is just like making the market silent. Imagine if we all investors held our bitcoin; it means that we never let other people invest.

Absolutely. Hodling is great but let’s never lose the point of investing in the first place. Learn to sell also when there are opportunities to sell that will give you huge profits. And then buy back again when dips is happening, or just do DCA and buy regularly regardless of its current price.

Hodling will give you an edge to gain massive profits in the future but hodling without no plans of selling us already an act of greediness.

I am sure that there will be new things or tech that is implemented or made like ETFs so, it will become a news and maybe affect the price of bitcoin to increase.

Do you know that some could have actually bought during that year when the price was around $16k and still lose money instead of making a profit? Some investors are just not patient enough and could be moved and influenced by anything. They can sell when the price is experiencing a correction with the intention of trying to protect their assets and later buy back high and end up selling low. If there will even be a profit, they will end up making little that's not worth the stress. I know of someone like that, but if the investor is following up, 2022 till now is enough profit to be proud of.

I disagree with you and one issue. We shouldn't sell just because we don't want the market to be silent according to you. We should only say if it is necessary and you want to use the profit to solve problems or to diversify or to build a project. If all the investors held their Bitcoin and the refuse to sell, it doesn't mean that we don't want new investors in, it means new investors are going to get it at an expensive price. This can only exist in theory. In real life, it is not everyone that will be able to hold their bitcoin without selling. The more the hold for a long time and the price increases, they will definitely sell just like what is happening now.

So, if you are selling, make sure you are doing so according to your own conviction and not because of a false sympathy to the industry. According to you, so that the market won't be silent.

Imagine explaining to your 2022 self that holding through the chaos would be like finding a cheat code to $100K. HODL: Hardest Option, Diamond Lifestyle.

I agree with you that we should not sell just because we want the market to be more active and that looks fake because no one is noble enough to do so. Because the main goal of all of us is profit, not the existence and future of the market or the willingness to sacrifice for it. But I am against any idea of ​​holding bitcoin and never selling because the future is unpredictable and anything can happen.

There is no denying that it is a good thing that many large organizations, investors or governments are joining the race to own bitcoin., But they also participate in the market as investors just like us, they do not claim or guarantee that they will never let the market crash. So don't take their participation as a reliable indicator and subjectively believe time for panic selling is gone or the market will never crash.

[JoyMarsha]

I don't think there is anyone who will be hodling their Bitcoin forever. Someday they will like to sell some part or all of their Bitcoin at a go, because of they profits they have accumulated. It won't because others are selling, it would because they feel like selling for the project they want to execute at hand, and the timing it was for them.

However, we they hodlers of Bitcoin, what awaits us in the future about our Bitcoin accumulation is great. We shouldn't give up on our long term investment planning

[yhiaali3]

The time for panic selling of Bitcoin is over for long-time holders only. As for new investors we still see them selling with any strong correction, indicating a lack of confidence in themselves and Bitcoin.

In any case, I agree with you that the market has changed, and Bitcoin cycles have also changed, given the significant developments in the market, especially after the emergence of exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and the entry of Trump and the US into the crypto space. And soon we will see more countries enter this space through strategic Bitcoin reserves.

I don't think there is any harm in selling some of your Bitcoins if you are getting good profit because that's why we are investing in Bitcoin i.e. to get profit. What's the point of investing in Bitcoin if you only calculate your profit but can't use it to improve your living standard. Whenever Bitcoin price goes high I hear that Bitcoin won't be going back and don't sell to buy later. Take example of last bull run when Bitcoin touched it's  ATH of 106k and after that we saw price falling back to 75k. What I think is that we will always have chance to buy Bitcoin at lower price.   

[suzanne5223]

I believe the most important message for every hodlers is prioritizing the holding of their Bitcoin in a self-custodial wallet because the organization, institution, government, and more that we have in the market now are know for having the habit of dominating the market they invested in and they can pull any trick that will put crypto investment into hard position that will make them thrive.

Technically, the market is more competitive than before, and I don't see taking profit during the bull season as something bad; we just have to split our holding that has long-term and a taking profit bag.

[Synchronice]

1. The whales
2. ETF

4. Aggressive Michael Saylor
5. More companies and institutions.
6. More countries
It will definitely be massive.  Sell only if you have a problem to solve or a project to execute. Don't sell in order to have funds to rebuy when the market is down. It might never come, the 4 year cycle might be altered. Time for panick selling is gone in BTC.

I entered the Bitcoin race very lately compared to the majority of people here but every day I'm getting more confident in hodling. I'm in a good profit and I don't care about random market dump because that's the part of a healthy coin, market can't always go up but long-term, it has been going up since day one and today it's financially strong like never before. Governments are going to create a Bitcoin backed strategic reserves, US states are investing in Bitcoin, corporations like MicroStrategy heavily invest into it and other companies are also joining them. All of these basically suggest everyone to hold it like never before. If someone gets scared because of small dump and sells, then they aren't ready for making an investment.

Investment without taking the creams at least partially is no investment at all.

To hodl is to be wise, but eventually, what you bought should be sold, to buy even more - without it, market wouldn't move an inch

[HONDACD125]

I don't think there is anyone who will be hodling their Bitcoin forever. Someday they will like to sell some part or all of their Bitcoin at a go, because of they profits they have accumulated.

Holding your assets forever doesn't make any sense because you make investments to get profit from them, and if you don't take profits at all and only keep holding, it doesn't serve the purpose. One should always have a target in mind for when they are going to take profit, even if they don't sell all their assets, they should at least sell some and take profit, and keep holding the remaining stash if they believe that the price might go higher.

There is also another reason why I think selling is better than holding excessively longer, and that reason is that you can reinvest the money that you get from selling your assets, which means that if you sell your Bitcoin at $110k, and then Bitcoin drops to $90k, you can buy again, and then if it goes up again, you sell again, and keep doing that.

Even for long-term investors, it's better that they take profit frequently if they know the price has reached their target instead of getting greedy because it's a volatile market, things don't take much time to change.
