The thing is holding is the least stressful thing you can do and the market always rebounds. Constantly stressing over prices everyday will only make you age faster and cause your hair to fall out. Time and time again holding has paid off and I guarantee it will pay off once again. There have been so many threads lately about the falling price.

In the last 10 months, the hold does not pay off, on the contrary, everyone loses. From the constant repetition of the phrase: "hold, everything will grow"nothing will grow. For growth you need reasons and circumstances. Or someone's desire to arrange growth.

That's right from those previous months of holding nothing is profitable for those who holds and wait, the market continues being bearish and if you are aiming for progress you need to adopt and make good strategy, but if you are willing to wait for much longer time you will not lose anything if you still holds the same amount of assets when you bought it and if you wait till the rise show up again.

As a trader I can say that Holding is the best and safest way to avoid our losses. You can hold untill you get your target price. If you can control your patience then your all losses will recover very nicely.

It isn't always the case really,you could also hodl and incur losses,its actually the easiest form of trading but I wouldn't call it the safest,in my opinion every method of trading embodies it's very own risk..
Hodling just make things a bit easier,but most people have hodled and ended up selling lower than they bought...
So every trading technique has had individuals who've been on the wrong side of it

Whenever coins prices fall, there are always many posts that suggest that we continue to hold and not sell.
But is this really helpful? In fact, losses have already occurred, and we cannot deceive ourselves with the reason of book losses instead of actual losses. This is simply a shit reason.
Indeed, if you hold coins and wait for a bull market, you may recover your losses，but this is uncertain, it is not necessarily happening.
More often, holding will only make things worse.

Why you have a doubt in that . It's really a true one. Now the price of bitcoin attain a negative impact due to some external factors. But this fluctuations in the price of bitcoin is a night mare. It will end in a short period and get back to it's original price.The people who had a doubt in the price increase ,will sell their bitcoin due to some panic. But be patience to get profit.

When investing in bitcoin we all have the mindset to make a profit from it and none of us want to lose a loss. You can accept Bitcoin sales while the market goes down but I think this may be the wrong thing to do when you do not believe in yourself. Instead of selling the day at this why not buy more to wait for a chance in the future?

Well I would say that holding a coin doesn't necessarily means that particular coin would rise in fact the reverse can be the case. But once a market period is bad it is advisable to hold a coin that has shown potential

It is still better than people who make it worse, at least when people said to hold, we have a chance to believe bitcoin or altcoin price will be better in future, even only affect a little, it still can helpful

yes. a paper loss is just considered a loss if you have converted it into other coins or currency. a long as you hold, there is a possibility to redeem its value.

Not really,but holding until the prices recovers will make us to avoid losses and its almost takes long time frame in most of the instances of price fell so you need to really hold your coins until the market go bullinsh or you will be at more losses than panic seller gets.If you really want to avoid losses from crypto investment you should neer invest on it because losses are inevitable at crypto investments.

If you do not need that money invested, the best thing you can do is leave it there, or look at it. Because in the long run, we all know that if a cryptocurrency is now circulating in an exchange, it can go up a lot depending on how you see the company behind it.

At no point does holding any commodity not work for investors. The only debate is the duration of the hold. A loaf of bread 100 years ago cost $0.07, the median home price was $3,200 and a gallon of gas was $0.15. Today the average cost for a loaf of bread is $2.43, the median home is $200k and a gallon of gas is $3.00. In the U.S. there’s a tool you can use to determine the cost of living increase yearly, it’s called the consumer price index or CPI. If bitcoins value relative to the US Dollar only increases by CPI every year you will gain an average on 3% on your holdings. What that means is, at least you won’t lose money.

Look at it this way, if you hold $10,000 dollars in a wall safe for 100 years that money will buy somewhere between $10 and $500 worth of goods and services when you open the safe. If you hold a bitcoin on paper wallet in a safe for 100 years you will be holding anywhere between $30,000 and millions.

Great insights! Thank you! Holding btc makes sense.

It depends on what you hold and WHY you hold. In general case, there must be a reason that makes you hold. If there's no such reason, that you're making a blind call.

It isn't and it is. You're passively earning and losing. Simple. Unless that you're making some movements with your coins with an appropriate strategy then I guess you're not gonna lose that much. Holding isn't just practically keeping your coins in a manner. It is also looking into the market's status and taking advantage of it plummeting then proceeding to buy more then wait until the storm is over.

Yes it does!
But move your altcoins to BTC (or the major ALTs like ETH) if you wanna hold for a longer time.

You know what? This is most often problem by individuals here, We're holding coins and when the price of Bitcoin or altcoins raising we're happy, But when its worth losing its value to others and because of the persistence of patience, and now comes comes to the question " Is this really helps being persistent? It is our understanding that only high prices should happen on every exchange platform, of course not! there is a seller, that's why we called Traders.
