Why HODLing is such a genius strategy

[LUCKMCFLY]

The tendency to sell in panic is one of the reasons for the loss of most investors, but those who are patient and follow the DCA method regularly are the ones who succeed in investing. Holding alone does not guarantee you profit, that's right, you need to deposit Bitcoin regularly and keep the DCA method running in every price trend.

Yes, in fact, combining HODL with DCA is a winning strategy for BTC, especially during periods of panic.

Novice investors who are just now entering the market can be influenced by the news, leading them to be very weak hands and end up selling. In a bearish trend, the best thing to do is buy (if you have the money) to accumulate more BTC; otherwise, it's better to stay in HODL mode.

HODLing is a strategy par excellence which matters if you want to make a profit from Bitcoin.
You just have to keep your Bitcoins safe and hope for price rises. It's all you have to consider when HODLing, and it's what makes such a strategy so popular. You don't have to worry about it, as long as you have sent your Bitcoins to an address for HODLing. You don't even have to reallocate your portfolio, Bitcoin HODLing is timeless par excellence.

The "hodling" strategy is good. But what use would it be, if you encounter a situation where you need the money right away? During emergencies or crises, many people tend to sell their BTC for cash. The same happens when there are debts to settle.

Besides, there's no guarantee Bitcoin will go up for the forseable future. We're only basing ourselves on past market performance. Nothing is 100% safe in this world. So better have a backup plan, just in case.

I don't think that HODLing is genius in its own right, but easy. The true benefit is to stick with the volatility and not make rash decisions. Meanwhile, the emergency factor has to be taken into account. Someone, who has invested money which he or she may need in the near future, may find that they have to sell at a bad time. So I believe that HODLing is most effective when you have an emergency fund and only invest the amount of money that you can afford to leave alone for the long-term. While this is a case of Bitcoin's historical performance, there aren't any guarantees for the future.

Anyone investing with money he or she will be needing in the near future isn’t ready to HODL for long term. HODling is easier said than done, a lot of investors actually plans to accumulate bitcoin and hodl for long term  but at a point circumstances and situations like unexpected occurrences happen which trigger them into tampering their bitcoin holdings. Not just the emergency factors should be taken into account when investing for long term, at least for most startups it will be wise they go with the money they won’t be needing anytime soon, basic needs should be addressed first which is the first step towards being able to figure out a discretionary income which one can comfortably be able to use and buy bitcoin and HODL without getting to worry about selling quickly in time of basic needs which are very important.

There is nothing wrong with selling your coins in times of need. In fact I feel that there should be a balance between Holding and selling and not obsessive holding. Because the people who are needing money will spend no matter what but those who are doing well with a stable fiat income can rather hold their bitcoins till dire need happens.

Besides, there's no guarantee Bitcoin will go up for the forseable future. We're only basing ourselves on past market performance. Nothing is 100% safe in this world. So better have a backup plan, just in case.

I have seen the markets for the last 10+ years and I can say that the future looks good. We can never invest in anything if we consider all investments like that. When the basics of bitcoin is strong the faith should be strong too, otherwise your judgement about assets will be poor.

Sometimes an investor might have the proper financial plan or management before entering into Bitcoin. Even with the proper financial plan, some of them still sell early because of fear (emotions). The fear can come in two conditions, one during the market dip while the other is when the market is in an upward direction. If I should use that upward direction as an example, let say Bitcoin pumps to $100k , this can cause alot of confusion into undisciplined investors mind, so they want to sell to capitalise the bullish momentum, because they think that Bitcoin might not get to that price for a long time . So they will now say if the price dips again then they will buy again, that alone has changed the investors Long term goals to short term trading due to their lack of emotional control, discipline ( mentality). Most Bitcoin failure often comes from the emotional side.

Yes, in fact, combining HODL with DCA is a winning strategy for BTC, especially during periods of panic.

Saying this also would not be wrong; it depends more on one's plan whether they are using a DCA strategy or a lump sum strategy for bitcoin accumulation. As either of them can be adopted for bitcoin buying, if you are the one who has good inflow funds and have the power for consistent buying, then the DCA strategy suits you best. On the other hand, if you can buy on a consistent basis, then you can also go for the lump sum strategy for long-term holding. So, it's all about your plan.

Novice investors who are just now entering the market can be influenced by the news, leading them to be very weak hands and end up selling. In a bearish trend, the best thing to do is buy (if you have the money) to accumulate more BTC; otherwise, it's better to stay in HODL mode.

That is why, when anyone is entering the market, it is always better to do good research first so that you know where you are jumping into. Research safely those weak hands and help them to understand the trapping strategies of big hand/whales of the market. So, always researching first is the best way for your own safety in the crypto space.

If you are thinking of holding Bitcoin for the long term, you do not have to worry about your portfolio. Moreover, long-term holders also have less psychological pressure. Those who are short-term holders may be scared of a small price drop, but for a long-term holder, the price drop cannot have any impact.

Whatever the market situation, the holder is safe because the price of Bitcoin is only increasing in the long term. For those who are new and are interested in getting big returns from Bitcoin without risk, holding Bitcoin for the long term is the best strategy.

Yes brother, it is very important to invest in Bitcoin for the long term, we use the necessary money to invest in Bitcoin and then invest with borrowed money, thinking that if the price of Bitcoin increases, we can sell Bitcoin and pay off the loan with that money or use that money for our necessary interests. To be honest, there is no guarantee of quick money through Bitcoin investment, so it is unlikely that we will get success through investment quickly.

Bitcoin is a long-term investment, so it is not right to invest with the necessary money or borrowed money. As a result, it will not be possible to hold Bitcoin for a long time, so the risk of losing money will increase manifold. Therefore, to achieve success through investment, it is very important to have a long-term investment plan. In addition, it is very important to have a risk management. As a result, it protects you from selling all your Bitcoins or completely closing your investment in the event of an unknown danger and maintains continuity, thus reducing the risk of losing money and increasing the possibility of making money in the future.

You know everyone has their own plans and the reasons for doing anything they like. But when we are to say the truth concerning bitcoin investment or holding rather, I see it as the best strategies for either new investor or the experienced one, though some people do preferred trading than investing into bitcoin and holding it for long-term purposes, due to thier mindset.

Bitcoin holdings has alots of advantages in the future, despite it has a limited supply of 21 million coins. But what I don't like with some newbies is coming to hold through within a shirt period of time, holdings bitcoin in 1 or 2 years doesn't seems more interesting to me, and I see that patterns as a trader's strategy,but at least holdings bitcoin for like 8,10-years or more will definitely gives you a significant returns depites it's volatility.

What I can feel when I become a beginner and choose trading because there is still a sense that getting money in bitcoin is like an instant cheat by being pushed by the narrative of several trading influencers who always show how successful they are so that I am tempted by it, but expectations remain expectations and we can feel different things when we try.

I've been in this phase where I feel that bitcoin is just an instant place to earn money and trading is the solution but the longer I try and lose then I change my perspective and start over with another approach without thinking about big expectations of instant profits.
The results are indeed very different for now, a few years I tried to pursue DCA and now in fact it is already getting results (although bitcoin is in a bearish phase). This is why I haven't changed my view of bitcoin for long-term investment.

As we can't assure what will happen to this market, what we can do is think of contingencies for our assets. We need to prepare for the worst so we won't put ourselves in tight position. We can't say that holding is an absolute strategy in this market, but it might make sense if this market is continuously growing in its own right. However, an investor should still consider the possible drawback if the market will not prosper in the years to come. As it is hard to precisely predict what will happen in the future, we are just left to think what might happen to this market in the future.

[Youngrebel]

Hodling Bitcoin is actually more than just making an investment it is also a way to keep your Bitcoin safe because that's the safest why to secure yourself financially without being worried about getting hacked unless you share your seed phase and no one is stupid enough to do that because so far that's the basic thing we have learnt not to do.

Bitcoin investment requires patience and being able to take advantage of the dip, the market rewards patience but not everyone can be disciplined enough to wait for a long period of time to make profits from it that's the reason why they go into short term investments.

You can be profitable from trading as well but it has a lot of risks compared to holding Bitcoin.

Currently, there is massive inflation, those who keep money in the bank are basically fools, because the value of money is decreasing day by day. But we can use money properly against this inflation by investing in Bitcoin, it will be possible to use money properly through Bitcoin investment.
Where we can eliminate future economic shortages by investing in Bitcoin, keeping this Bitcoin investment for a long time can make both new and old investors successful. Success is possible only if we can maintain the continuity of purchases by following the right strategy and move forward towards the future.

It is wrong for you to say that those that keep money in the bank are fools. I do agree with you that inflation do affect money that is being kept in the bank, but saying that it is only fools that keep money in the bank is very absurd. I believe we all have different needs and some of the money being kept in the bank maybe emergency funds, or money for expenses or other essential needs. So there is nothing wrong if this money is being kept in the bank.
The only money that should be invested in bitcoin is money that we won't be needing soon, this is the only way we can be able to hold bitcoin for a long term. Buying bitcoin consistently using DCA strategy is far more rewarding in the long term than trying to time the market.

Agreed DCA has and always will be the way to go. I dont think there is any better way unless you somehow stumble upon a large pile of bitcoins in the wilderness lmao. Must have been what happened with these cold card instance jk jk lol . You have to keep money in the bank to pay bills and live life.  Wise folks have both and also retirement planning in place and diversified investment portfolios

[HajiBagi]

When you invest today, then you take your time to hold and wait until you realize your bitcoin is profitable before you could decided to sell, then you also make another target to buy when the market falls and decided to hold again until it rises before you sell and keep on doing this continuously, we must avoid destruction when holding because the market May look discouraging by the way of performance, social media could also be distracting enough when the market falls, all these are not to be recognized until we achieve our goal for holding when the market begin to pump.

Holding bitcoin is all about plan and a good mindset, those with good plan are the ones that can hold bitcoin for long term, when you are holding bitcoin, you need to understand that you are starting a long journey, the reason why i said that is because bitcoin can not be predicted, the price can increase and decrease at any time, another reason is because some individuals panic and sell their bitcoin because they think the price is dropping and they will lose their money or not make a good profit in the end.

Distractions have been one of the reasons why some individuals can not hold bitcoin for a long period time. When you are holding bitcoin, always be yourself and don’t listen to what others say about the price or the market. Listening what people say can force you sell your bitcoin when you are not ready to sell.

Bitcoin has the power to work for different people according to their needs. If someone wants to go ahead with instant exchange or someone wants to keep this for holding while trading, trading it is also impressively working for many. It's one packet for all problem. People are engaging, always well prepared, and understand how to stay in touch. Changes are happening, but its use is increasing and it is always staying positive for everyone. Holding for long term is always good, but security measures are also always needed to check because people have made mistakes and then paid price for this.

It is always needed to stay alert about few points that are essential for holding and securing this for a long time because a retirement plan also works well, but understanding the risk factor is also key in this case.

The best bet is choosing hodling over trading as a beginner when it comes to bitcoin, unfortunately many beginners initially think trading is the faster way of earning profit after watching the videos of fake Influencers on YouTube who showed their massive profit earned, however after starting to trade majorities of those newbies lost their hard earned money, fortunately for those newbies who choose the path of hodling their coins against trading it earned some decent profits after a long term run, thus the difference is clear I would rather invest and hodl my bitcoin rather than losing it through trading without adequate skills and knowledge of tradin, though hodling requires a lot of patience to earn some decent profits, but not many newbies are ready and willing for a long term run or perspective, ratger many of them are after quick and fast means to get rich through bitcoin.

It is not wrong to keep money in the bank, but it is wrong to keep money that you will keep for a long time, that is, money that is not allocated for any of your work. Then the money that you are keeping in the bank with the intention of keeping it for a long time, you are leaving it in the bank without using it as an investment, and this is definitely wrong. Because due to inflation, you will not find the real value of your money after a long time. And for this reason, do not just keep the money that you want to keep for a long time in the bank, but use it for long-term investment, a good investment can create a better financial situation for you in the long run. So if you do not want to lose the real value of money, at least you should definitely make a long-term investment with your money.

[Churchillvv]

The tendency to sell in panic is one of the reasons for the loss of most investors, but those who are patient and follow the DCA method regularly are the ones who succeed in investing. Holding alone does not guarantee you profit, that's right, you need to deposit Bitcoin regularly and keep the DCA method running in every price trend.

Yes, in fact, combining HODL with DCA is a winning strategy for BTC, especially during periods of panic.

This can not be overly emphasized, if you put holding and DCA together it's such an amazing thing because you will be relaxed while your money works for you and then you keep accumulating, firstly the first investment will be yielding value over time while the DCA will keep adding to the value and soon enough you will be having a large portfolio in matter of few years and that's exactly how most OGs have done it's over times.

[kawetsriyanto]

There is nothing wrong with selling your coins in times of need. In fact I feel that there should be a balance between Holding and selling and not obsessive holding. Because the people who are needing money will spend no matter what but those who are doing well with a stable fiat income can rather hold their bitcoins till dire need happens.

I even think selling is a must when the target has been reached. Or we need to sell it because of a urgent need or an emergency. Sure, we must have a good balance in investment, it is impossible to always keep holding. How we can determine the success in the investment if we never take profits, right? By the way, it is true that we all must expect to have fiats because we have spending in daily life. So, investors must have a target to convert the assets to be fiats someday.

I have seen the markets for the last 10+ years and I can say that the future looks good. We can never invest in anything if we consider all investments like that. When the basics of bitcoin is strong the faith should be strong too, otherwise your judgement about assets will be poor.

Actually, the previous market condition can't really guarantee for the future. However, considering the great adoption of Bitcoin and more big parties investing in Bitcoin, these just show bright future of Bitcoin. But we must need to have some alternative plans to deal with possible risks in Bitcoin investment in the future. Nothing is really safe, it is including the Bitcoin investment.
