Bitcoin must be regarded as a long-term investment instrument and not a currency right now if you ask me because the fluctuations are too great.
It's a financial asset that can be use to send money or store wealth. It was a great asset to hold in 2013 but not a good one in 2014. In 2015 the performance could be between the one of 2013 and the one of 2014.

To store wealth is OK assuming it is going to increase in value.

2014 was one of the best years for BTC - so iam optimistic ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Oh wow, some sense in here! 2014 was unreal, 2015 it's only going to grow. I really think the price has been manipulated in the past and never was a true representation of it's demand. Should be an awesome year, lots of innoation coming, so many startups and large organizations opening the doors. Consumer/everyday user adoption soon to follow. Happy 2015 ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Perhaps if there was a smart wallet that somehow magically switched between national currency accounts and bitcoin during volatile periods, which seems like it's un attainable.... But some sort of innovation is bound to come along that protects consumers looking to regularly purchase items with Bitcoin, just a matter of time. Andreas and other public representitives of the technology say it best.. Still in the early days, time will tell. Everyday new innovation is introduced, it's just a matter of time before the whole picture is consumer/average joe friendly. I think it will come, not for a year or two, but with baby steps. Every hurdle is overcome with innovation... It's not stopping here. #hold

I hold for 2 reasons: First, I could take the hit to lose the money I invested(even if it a substantial amount of my "wealth"), but I would really kick my self, if I sold now taking a loss and than it goes up after that. Second, I don't see any problem with Bitcoin itself. All the bad news, didn't really give me any indication, that Bitcoin will die. There is nothing wrong about the technology and there is more adoption of it(Microsoft, the Winkleson-Twins, etc.)

If you ever...ever use Amazon, why would you not pay with bitcoins through purse to get 20%-30% off of your purchase?
I see people on Facebook with these "How I cut my spending by 10% with one simple trick" posts and think...only 10%?

As I've got in early and spent only buttons and peanuts on my coins I'm still massively in the green. After a dramatic downtrend we might see a dramatic correction ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . So I'm holding ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) .

I hold on to my coins because if I sell, that would immediately translate to a loss. If I hang on to it, there is still hope left. So I would roll the dice and wait for the outcome. There might be recovery in store.

I hold because BTC has been a good investment so far. I have no regrets not selling when BTC was above $1,000, and I'm confident it can go back to this level, but I would lie if I told you I wasn't worried. THis is a very sharp fall, and I fail to understand it.

The only way is up, baby. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) . This isn't the first crash and wont be the last. Some of us can see the potential future value and that's what we're most interested in. I still see the massive potential both for bitcoin's use and it's value so I'll jeep holding and weather the storm.
