I have sold most of my bitcoin under $1k last year and now regretting, I don't want to buy back bitcoin right now because it is already at peak price and just waiting for some correction.

I can still remember one of my friend to whom I have sold 1 bitcoin at around $700 1 year back, now he is sitting at $15000+ worth of bitcoin because he have never sold those bitcoin Angry

Everyone is experiencing the same thing. We all do not think that Bitcoin can achieve this level, This is a miracle in my opinion because the price increase is very unusual. In fact, I've seen this as a new economic power, the volume and market share owned by Bitcoin has outgrown other important assets in the world today.

I am disappointed with what I did some time ago, I am not patient and sell Bitcoin at a low price, usually I am affected by the action of panic sell. That's what I think is a difficult thing to avoid. But I believe that I can get much better things, most importantly I have the passion and hard work to be able to improve my life much better.

I admit that I regretted in selling my btc. Once I sold my btc only at 3000 usd price and that is .19 btc I think? That's so high if I just hodled :/

I feel the same I regret when I sold my hodling of btc before when the price is not as high today. I though price of btc will not increase or it will fall down. This is why I regret those hope of profit I earned if I juts continue to hold until these days. Anyway, I have to move forward and will start a new in btc.

That's a wrong decisions that we ever made mate, I myself also regret those btc's I've sold for the past year. Those amounts reached at around 0.1 btc in total but all of them also sold at low price. If I hold that until for eight months maybe I am also wealthy same as your friend. So its recommended to hold bitcoins rather than selling it early.

Of course there are regrets about selling seeing the current price for bitcoin, but those sales were justified as part went to the altcoins

if all of people can predict the price of bitcoin will be so high such as now then i'm pretty sure most of them already being millionaire but nobody thought bitcoin even will surpassing $10k however regarding OP questions that honestly yes i was regretted my decission why i have not much patience to holding my bitcoin since last year because i wasn't expect bitcoin price will so high but now i believe that bitcoin price still rise up and possibly at 2018 we will see new all time high

basically, I regret selling my bitcoin too early because the price was in a lower price. but I have some urgent thing that I really need money to that things. I think we don't have to regret this because we still have another time to collect more bitcoin and the price will still increase later. it is better that we prepare our future from now on than we regret what we've done in the past.

@ op, yes.
Basically....
I'm bad at saving money. But if I was halfway decent at saving money, it'd take me about 1,190 years to save up to what I've potentially had in BTC if I held up to this date.

Even if I had a better job and saved more, it'd still be like 250+ years worth of savings.

so yeah... Cry

It's not that bad of a feeling though.
I'm sure a portion of those people from Satoshi dice who would gamble 250+ BTC nonstop feel pretty bad now. But they were probably already multi millionaires, so meh.

I am looking at one of my $17k graphics cards(bought for about 1BTC each back in 2014)right now...and yah..there is some regret I didnt hodl longer. Even worse..I can see the front fender of my truck sitting out in the driveway...bought that for 30BTC...not quiet a 150mio pizza...but it does sting. On the positive side..I tell all my friends that I drive a half a million dollar ride.

That's basically how I look at it too.

$25,000 back massager,
$425,000 worth of books,
200 incense sticks for $2,550
$55,000 high velocity floor fan,...
etc... etc

absolutely disgusting

Cheesy

I've found old forgotten login details from over the years and have found small BTC's worth on em. Pretty sure I've recovered most everything at this point.
---- however I do have ~5 old dead laptops I think I should rip apart and SATA->USB them and see if there's any BTC to be had there. But, At most, there may be a few thousand $ on them, nothing life changing.

I hugely regret selling some of my BTC in 2016. This 2017 was insane. So much demand and hike in price. I regret my move more because I didn't need my btc at that time and just because of risk of price falling, I took that decision. I still hold many BTC. But that was a regretful move. Now I am holding my BTC for longer until I need money.

Obviously, who doesn't regret selling their bitcoin?

But the thing is nobody would have told you with confidence and bet you all their life savings that bitcoin was going to be this high at this current time. So it could have went both ways and it turned out that the holders have been correct.

The rally could ahve ended on $2k if the august 1st events messed up, but it didn't. These were all unpredictable.

Plus, if you had to sell bitcoins for your personal use or an emergency, there was really nothing to avoid it.

I do not. I have sold some BTCs in the past and I sure will still be selling some now and in the future. I am not going to be stupid enough anyway to sell everything but when cash is needed to do somethings and your job totally revolves around the crypto and trading world, you will definitely not want to leave all your earnings in bitcoin. So, I am still cool with myself, knowing I am still gaining a lot from the one I have been saving. Moreover, what is the point of regretting one's decisions in life when we can absolutely not change what has happened. The only best way is to make some amends and get going!

I havent tried selling my btc yet, in fact i wanted to more that’s why i keep on adding it not selling it, that’s why never felt any regret yet, my goal is to have manu bitcoins as much as i can and sell on the right period or on my very target highness...so for now my choice is always buying and holding and no selling to avoid regrets

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?

yes and no (heh)

by that i mean when i did sell, it was cool because when i did it was usually for a good enough reason, toys i really wanted, vacations, gifts. and years ago it was to promote actual use of btc.

but.

when i look at how many btc i had vs what i hodled.. well.. damn. spent many millions of usd worth of btc at todays prices.

oh well, no regerts.

Yep, regret investing 50 BTC I got from mining back in 2013. Stupid me lost them all. They were around $70 a coin back then. It seemed incomprehensible at that time that BTC would reach these levels. I am HODL'ing onto my last coins like Gollum. ;-) hehehe

Do what needs to be done.

I do feel sad when I think about it so I try not to. As I was there all the time without any interest in crypto until recently whatsoever. Please, don't bring back memories that I could had like thousands of bitcoins until now just for sake of fun.

I've never sold. I have spent which is effectively the same.

I am the proud owner of a (broken) $9000 Samsung Galaxy S3, a $4000 tent, a real shitty $400 laptop sleeve and no doubt much more.

Do I regret it? Nah. Not really. I spent the most when it returned to the $1000 mark. It was time for BTC to pay for a bit of fun. I'll be doing plenty more of it in the future too.

Well in the past I am just spending much of my bitcoin with the things that are not really needed and I am just treating it for some other currency back then, but I was wrong in thinking it for just a currency because after seeing the price of bitcoin right now if I just treated my bitcoin as an asset just like gold and other precious metals I will be a millionaire for sure, And I think regret will always be there and there are a lot of us that have done the same thing in the past.
