Don't sell your bitcoin for Val's sake

[Josefjix]

The last part is very funny "Because you want to hear Aaawwnnnn"  :;

To be frank, those who hasn't understood that life hard will do such, I did something similar back then when I starting earning Bitcoin, I sold it every time for party and shayo and then, suddenly, I got stranded and confused when everything stopped working out.

I could remember a friend was telling me that I should be stingy, that you can't build, plan your life if you are not stingy. I overlooked it and thought my friend was misleading me.

Then now in 2026, I am the most stingiest personality in the world, I can't trade my Bitcoin for a party, drinks and shayo in the name of Val. Nah, I've learnt my lessons

[CryptSafe]

Who does that in this era. Well you have spoken well but a serious minded businessman and investor would never act so silly to do such. Although we all have our own view and perspective on ow to spend our funds and assets but that does not mean we going reckless and blinded by few minuites pleasure for nothing. It is foolishness to think of such and not wisdom. There is a sayings that says " a wise man gathereth while a foolish man scatereth"  a word is enough for the wise.

A very long time ago while growing up, I experienced one financial mistake made by a neighbour and even though I was very young, I spotted it as a financial mistake. Way back in those days, the man had to sell his motorcycle to be able to buy Val's gift for his friend even though he was only a biker he still sold his source of income for Val's sake.

Bitcoin is our own asset and our hope. I see bitcoin as hope for the future and not just as something anybody can sell anytime for a careless reason like this. Do not allow your self to be pressured into selling all or part of your bitcoin for the sake of Val because it is like selling your future for a short term pleasure. That gift can wait, don't spend your future because you want to please anyone or because you want to hear Awwwn.

No it's not wise selling your bitcoin because of Val, anyway everyone can decide what he wants in his life bit remember that the price at which you bought bitcoin might not be what you are selling, are you at a profit or loss, selling for pleasure, what if the price of bitcoin did not dip to $60 how do you plan to regain the ones you have sold because of VAL, as an investor let's be wise in taking some certain decision when it comes to our bitcoin investment.

valentine is a temporary experience and it doesn't guarantee total commitment of a partner, I would say that selling your bitcoin because you want to please someone is totally unwise and you shouldn't do that. it is better to have other sources of income that you can get the extra funds to celebrate valentines day but your investment in bitcoin isn't something you are supposed to play with. Don't sell your tokens ovwr temporary issues.

[NurseHub]

I no even know say people wey dey try impress person dey do reach this extent, but why I go suffer myself so that you go happy? valentine's day na one day but my suffering days go be long time if I satisfy your happiness. so no be weytin I fit imagine to do self even who sick I fit no use my bitcoin to save am, na to surprise person wey go leave me when I go get hard times. Bitcoin na weytin to hold no be weytin to use do any kind nonsense for happiness.

[Barikui1]

Well, very much understood the op but I can decide to sell my bitcoin or part of it for any reason since the bitcoins rightfully belongs to me, no one bought it for me and it wasn't handed over to me for free either, if I feel the person in my life is worth more than the bitcoins, I don't mind selling a small part to buy him or her a special gift of love today being valentine's day, especially when I am still working and making money and can still buy the bitcoin back plus more, meanwhile valentine is only a one day celebration in a whole year..

I think that the op is misunderstanding selling your source of livelihood to selling what you can later replace in the future, because in my own opinion, a normal and right thinking person will not and will never sell his motorcycle, which is his source of income to please a lover that will later leave you if you turn out to be a failure by that stupid decision.
 Bitcoin investment is not  a source of income, so it can actually be replace later if you ever temper with it, but selling your motorcycle which is the said person source of livelihood is total madness that he will regret.

Now that the valentine pressure is over people who sold important assets, like say for people who are not investing in bitcoin and bitcoin investors alike, they are definitely regretting there actions right now and probably hoping they hadn't gone ahead and cashed out on their investment because of trying to get an expensive gift or going on an expensive date with another, if you have the money to spare then there is nothing wrong with treating your special someone to a good time, but don't ever consider cutting into an investment, instead use the available cash at hand and if it's going to bankrupt you then don't do it.

Most people are regretting their actions yesterday, some actually borrow money so they can prove to their love one that they love them, some sold out their important asset while some also spent more than what they are meant to spend just to make a girl that still cheat you on them glad, well there is nothing spending on our love one but we shouldn't do it under any pressure of anything, i think it's foolishness to go bankrupt just for valentine merriment that the white folks won't even celebrate if it was a black man that die because of nonsense love, we black really need to change our way of thinking our mentality.

[MainIbem]

It will be very stupid to engage in such act for some temporary feelings, some gestures that may not even be appreciated enough by the ones you are doing such gestures from, it is too much of a sacrifice totally makes which is very likely to be regretbale in the long run. If we must gift it should be such that is within our capacity and the person who is receiving it if such a person is our pattern as supposed, they too would and should be able to understand our capacity and that which we may not be able to do an not drive us to a point that will not be favourable for us and eventually they may leave.

I know some people would say that those that's held for very long can take some portions to get gifts for their loved ones, I'm not against the Valentine's day celebrations or lovers gifting each but taking funds from an investment especially during this bearish period just to impress a loved one makes no sense, selling Bitcoin at this point means selling at lose cause were in a bearish season so I won't support anyone to sell their bitcoin to get Valentine's gift for their loved one.

[Fiasem20]

People make their own decisions on how to use their holdings,and it is not in anyone’s jurisdiction to tell an investor when to sell or when not to sell for certain purposes.Relationship differs,the way you row with your partner is absolutely different from another person,to most persons it may look like they’re selling their bitcoin like they’ve been doing on normal occasions.In my own opinion,there’s nothing wrong in celebrating with your partner from a little portion of your bitcoin,inasmuch as you would reinvest the amount you’ve spent and continue holding there’s nothing wrong.

[Tonimez]

Bitcoin na weytin to hold no be weytin to use do any kind nonsense for happiness.

Hahahaha guy you made me laugh out loud inside my worship area. How do mean that you no fit even sell your bitcoin to save person wey dey sick not to talk of person wey go leave you? But be it as funny as it sounds, I don't see my self selling any part of my bitcoin because I want to impress someone who probably is not married to me. Many things happen every day and we should learn from others mistakes. No body is reliable anymore when it comes to this relationship thing and you have to commit only what you can afford to loose. Again, the situation of bitcoin this February does not support selling and if you sell to please someone, you must have ended up selling at loss. Don't be played, when you broke, she go still run go meet another person wey go continue for where you stopped. Make everyone dey do anything they like with their bitcoin but I no go gree use my bitcoin do love, never, no be me and anybody abeg

Even for December way the spending they plenty, people no they too do am, so I wonder waiting go enter person mind to sell Bitcoin because of love, we no how person they take struggle so that all the investment way them get go they go up so those kind of things no suppose carry the person go there investment way them never even invest finish, if person no go out to spend or celebrate no mean say them no be lover boy and lover girls, some just order pizza as na something way no they too cost like that and just celebrate am for house with there partner instead of those length way some they go for the val.

[AGogi2003]

Who does this, I do not think a serious investor will want to think this, in as much as I know that some persons can do anything for the sake Val, I do not think things should be taken to that extent, Val is just a day, of what importance is it for any investor to deem it necessary to withdraw from his hodlings all in the name of Val stuff, this is not adviceable, we got our decisions and even as the op mentioned this, if we lool around the world, there are people that have done this already, but that is their decision, celebration of love is good, but better planned than seeking alternatives from existing asset that has not matured yet.

Sure, a real investor won't make that mistake to sell is bitcoin just for a day happiness, val is not something that you will sell your investment to celebrate it is not by force you most celebrate it but everyone have is on choice to do what he feel like. If someone sell is bitcoin for Val that mean he don't really care about is investment, or I think he is in profits in bitcoin and he like to sell some of is profits to celebrate that to make is safe feel happy. But when you're in lose and sell bitcoin i Will says you don't really know what you're doing and such people can't be call a investors. That is why is very good to always think before doing anything because val is just one day and if you're have sell your bitcoin in a lose that is all you can't get the benefit anymore till you restart again.

Yes, I completely agree with you. Investing in Bitcoin is one of the safest assets for our future. We must set a goal to make our future wealth. We should never sell our investment before reaching the goal. For whatever reason, it is foolish for an investor to think about temporary happiness by selling the investment.

We should always make our life partner happy but we should not waste our future wealth for her. I think it is better to save our future wealth properly than such temporary happiness.

Do you mean his girl friend? If so he deserves every negative effect that came from his irrational behavior and more. No sane person liquidates his source of income for a mere pleasure ride.

We cannot eat our cake and still have it. The investment is for the future and it is only stupid to sell it for an observation that keeps repeating every year. People are the ones that put themselves under undue pressure in order to meet up. The decision we make today impacts our tomorrow especially when it comes to our investments which are clearly financial crops we plant today to harvest tomorrow.

Val has come and gone and nothing much changed, but the people who made unnecessary mistakes because of the 1 day observation and not necessarily a celebration would have to live with its consequences.

In as much as i would agree with you on this I also want to let you know that Bitcoin is not my only hope for the future, I would rather say it's my alternative hope for the future rather than making it my only hope for the future, I will advise everyone to look for alternative while hoping for such so that to avoid one particular point of failure because there's no guarantee about the outcome even though you HODL for Long term, and surely it's never right to sell our holdings for irrelevant stuffs even though we have the right to spend it as much as we like but not spending it recklessly.

[Uhwuchukwu53]

Well every investor know the purpose while they invented in Bitcoin or any other crypto but notwithstanding , only unwise cut off investment because of jamboree, in every valatine another will exist if one sell off it's accumulation because of love or pressure to satisfy side chick who is not ready to settle down and plan , it's expected that in the next val. The investor will still sell for same purpose because bal will always come it's a matter of time. Many today live life of indicision mostly on the right path,they are the truth definition of what they popularly said when the purpose of thing is not known abuse is inevitable, val is mere celebration and don't worth selling one asset.

Some people are so funny and at same time very unwise, and sometimes I wonder if some people's brain is functioning properly because tell me why on earth wil someone sell his Bic just to give someone a Val gift? So after that day it means the person will go back to square one though this may sound untrue but I know some folks are capable of doing this just to please someone that may not even like them

But for your information, Bitcoin is not my only hope I don't know about others sha but for me it is not my only hope because I have other things I do aside Bitcoin and it will be wrong for someone to solely depend on Bitcoin because there is nothing guarantee.

Selling Your Bitcoin asset for the sake of Valentine is not wisdom, you can use any money in your possession to do that not your investment which is ment for the sake of tomorrow and wealth creation. In as much as you want to show love you have to be wise doing it I can't imagine selling off my Bitcoin assets to do val, before doing anything thing you have to be calculative and think the best option as an individual.


There are different ways of showing love which I don't think that selling off your Bitcoin assets should be included, Bitcoin is a very valuable asset that should not be used just to show off instead of selling it off, I am of the view that you use this val period to introduce people to Bitcoin by telling them about the basis about Bitcoin and and make them to possible invest or better still you can gift Bitcoin to the person that you live.
