Topic: Hands down - who really didn't sell anything? (Read 2109 times)

i didnt sell a single BTC, in fact i bought more.. when the drama smoke clears, you'll be in the mad profits

Selling at now is bad choice, you just have low ratio opportunity for buy dip with the price now in market, most trader are holding their crypto or take loss in past crash or go to FIAT and USDT for waiting the price falldown and buy dip as you.
But look at the market in today, the market recovery fast and we can't buy dip as yesterday

My total alt holdings is just over $100... at the highest time it was almost $200. I didn't sell anything. For me, I considered it an investment (I didn't actually buy, just earned or exchanged from bitcoin) and practically consider this a loss already.

All in all, I guess the amount of fiat now is more or less still the same amount I earned or exchanged, so I'm not worried.

I am holding on to my coins as well with 40% losses on paper, I believe the price will rise again.
And yes, I agree that if I sold the all coins before the dip, I will have the opportunity to buy at lower price. Hence these are my losses now.

I didn't sell anything either 😁.
Doesn't take away that it feels bad when you see everything go down and down more each day..

Been slowly selling (taking profits) all summer. Mostly out of speculative crap for now, long term bags stay in the cold storage. Looking to buy a ton of alts as soon as I start seeing the prices that I'm waiting for

the time to sell was weeks ago. i've mainly been buying a little today. the writing has been on the wall for a while. people should've read it.

Is this for BIP91? If so, I'd say waiting until 29th would be very last-minute, and price rises could kick in before that... but then I'm pretty uninformed, which is why I didn't sell everything as soon as the dip started!
Could you elaborate on why 29th is best?

Every Euro i can afford i will invest at this grand sale. This is the chance to get rich, just because of the stupidity and impatience of other people.

Buy Litecoin now, change it to Bitcoin at its lowest = make some moneyyy 

I am guilty of selling some of my BTC but not my alts.
You see there is no profit now.
The current did a big fall which you wont get anything so why sell.
All my alts are still intact and I really want to know what is it there after this August madness which makes people panic and sell their coins for cash.
The fact that there is no profit makes me hold it. I will ignore everything that have been making a fuss to sell it.
There is no telling where it will go after all the breaking news.

sold btc at 2400 eth at 400 and pascal lite at 7000 sat. I'll buy in on the 29th.

There are a lot of people who bought cryptos as a long-term investment, people who don't check the price day-to-day or even month-to-month, but maybe once or twice a year. They won't be aware of the bitcoin war or the current dump, and they won't be members of this forum. I'm sure there are plenty of these people, and they won't have sold a thing.

Personally, I've sold some and bought back more at a lower price, and so increased my holdings. But I've done this quite conservatively; I could have made a lot more than I have. The reason I didn't sell everything at the top, and that I bought back before the bottom (whenever that is), is that I think that when prices start to rise, they will rise very rapidly... and it will be very easy to miss out. I have absolutely no idea when the bottom will occur.

I sold over 2 million NEM, most of it between $1.7 and $2.5 B market cap, leaving me with about 150K left, and sold all my other altcoins except Pascalcoin, Xtrabytes, and Ark, which are all down significantly.  Not sure what I'm going to do now. It's much easier to spot bubbles and sell than spot bottoms and know exactly when to buy. I suspect we go quite a bit lower yet and base for a year or two like during the 2013 bubble.  I feel bad I was promoting some altcoins during the bubble but I did warn people when the charts said it had burst, so there was time to get out if a person was following my posts that closely.  It wasn't just that, it was the market depth on poloniex, and how greedy the ICO market was getting. It smelled too much of the tech bubble in 99 when pink sheet stocks were doing the same things altcoins were doing during this bubble.

A stock called "ECNC" going from my buy price of 25 cents to 9 dollars in a month when I sold it bought my first car fresh out of high school. Then I got lazy and didn't stay involved in the stock market and played video games instead, and here I am at age 35 doing alright, but I could be retired by now had I had more discipline. NEM doubled my net worth. Most of it's going into the fidelity account for more stable stock market investing, but the stock market is pretty high right now, too.

Life goes by fast. If you made a ton of money in cryptos, take a third of it and go out and enjoy life.

I found an old post by someone else about that ECNC.

You can't know that, maybe your coins will be dead in 1-2 years.
How much have you lost? 58% is lot, but how much have you invested, maybe it is better to sell even with lose than wait couple of years to lose more?

I also hold my bitcoin now and also I buy alt-coins at low price because they are now dumping and this is the right time to buy those alt-coins.

I was aware about of this segwit situation 2 month before that is why I was trading very less and most of my money I kept in BTC and now I am starting to buy Altcoins now and will buy more at dips.

My total altcoin worth is down by more than 60% right now and am not selling any of my coins right now. I know that it is because of the two sides who want to fight for and against the segwit. I have bought some coins long ago and when the price comes back to the previous point or even to 2000$, I will be in a profit, so hold everything.

most people who enter early still have great profit, If the banker does not have this profit squeeze, the market won't turn, so i sell out all my coin to wait for the bottom

That's your opinion not mine, but every one has their own strategy. People who sell now is just panic sell, that's natural with this big speculation. But most of them hold it with patience and hope that next month after August the price will comes up again. If we have extra money maybe will follow your strategy, but people with no money will sell it for safety. Good luck.

Is this panic selling i see, a huge drop in just a week or so or is it just the coming of segwit that will start broadcast on the first of august. but still i will stand firm and wait for the storm to past.
