I see many people losing money in day trading because they are not experienced traders. If anyone wants to get good return and has little know how about the trading, then holding is the best option for him. If anyone can only hold bitcoin for few years, he will get best value for money.
The good news is that Bitcoin will, at some point in the near future, probably go up in price. At least, that is what history has shown. And that is more good news for Hodlers than anything else. The bad news is that if this happens too quickly, the price might crash again.
