Topic: Have you ever regretted selling your bitcoins ? - page 10. (Read 1524 times)
Of course! I even remember most instances when I sold. The most significant was when I got my first large profit. At that time I bought some bitcoin for $600 and it went to $3k. I was so happy, I thought I was a master investor. Then it went to 20k later that year. I still have some of those $600 coins because I did not sell it all, but at that point I learned an important lesson. Traditional look doesn't work for bitcoin. If you get it to sell a year later with 2x profit, you underestimate it and don't get what it's capable of. This market can easily go 2x from its old ATH and people get euphoric because it went from 45 to 49k and then they get depressed because it went back to 45...
No one is able to look into the future to know what will happen there. Few people thought in 2010 that bitcoin would be worth as much as it is now and naturally, when the price of bitcoin rose high enough, many people sold their bitcoins, for various reasons.
Well spoken, OP, instead of sitting down and regretting why we sold at an early stage. The solution to it is to actively buy it now that we can afford it while we learn from our previous mistakes. There is always an opportunity for every investor, but if he or she does not use the opportunity wisely, then they will regret it. However, the reason why i like cryptocurrency is because there is always a second chance to hop on the train before it reaches a price where our financial strength cannot purchase it. Thats when there will be a much more intense regret for not participating when others were.
Money could be the problem. If I may share one thing I've learned, it's to get something done before making a bitcoin investment to avoid having to sell it later. Apologies for the operator for selling his bitcoin, as he still has some time to purchase more, assuming he has the funds. Your statement that he will have learned from us is the nicest part. He witnessed the price rising after he sold it. And he will have to wait for another chance if this one is gone. and will experience depression as a result of acting. It is not at all entertaining to see others cash out when you have already sold yours. No since I only spend my Bitcoin on important things, like when my mother is hospitalized I have no other choice, but to act fast, there is no second thought since on my mind I can earn that bitcoin even if it takes too long, but my mom life can never return even if I have 10,000 bitcoin, that is my view about selling those bitcoins.
I am so sorry for your mother's condition. It is better that the money was later utilized to care for your mother than it would be disastrous to have money and be unable to care for your own mother. For this reason, find a job and set aside some cash for emergencies like this so you won't need to use your bitcoin for anything other than medical expenses. I also hope your mother gets well soon.

Have you ever regretted selling your bitcoins?
Why should I regret because I used currency as currency? I spent Bitcoin when it was worth about $200, I still spend it today when it is worth more than 200 times more and I will never regret it. Some people act as if they will live for hundreds of years, they give up the things they want all their lives, and then one day they find themselves in a situation where someone else spends all that money on stupid things.
I'm not saying that you should waste your money, but if you want something for a long time, it's not bad to spend a little BTC here and there.
We've all been there, that moment of realization when you remember selling your precious Bitcoins years ago and wonder if you missed the boat. Well, take a deep breath, because im here to remind you that in the world of crypto, time is always on our side!
I have an unconfirmed opinion that everyone who sells bitcoin (both at low and high prices) all regret it. 
No matter what price you sell bitcoin for, it will always seem to you that you are selling for a very cheap price, because over time it can be sold for much more. Whatever price tag hangs on bitcoin (10.000$, 100.000$ or even 1.000.000$ or higher), it will always not be enough for you. Whatever price they give you, it will always be less than 1BTC. You remember that their number is strictly limited.It might sting a bit to think about what could have been if you held onto those BTC, but let's not forget the golden rule of crypto: it's a marathon, not a sprint. The market is dynamic, and opportunities are ever-present.
The market is dynamic, but it is more likely that with the growth of bitcoin capitalization, this dynamics will slow down, which means that there will be fewer opportunities.
This is the function of using money management strategies. Talking about what you asked, I think everyone feels it too, but maybe there are Altcoins too, especially BTC which has been bought at low prices. I think everyone is ready for the consequences when they sell.
If you look now at whether the trend is towards the negative or negative side for BTC, I think it is not an obstacle anymore if you already know its potential and what you have to deal with is buying dips at this time so that it provides some practical advantages in your current trading.

While I don't have much insight and experience in Bitcoin investment. I once had regrets when I sold bitcoins that I had accumulated and was going to keep for the long term. At that time, I was tempted by the increase in Bitcoin and I decided to sell it and buy it again if the market price experienced another correction. But at that time I panicked because the price of bitcoin was actually increasing and exceeding the price I sold it for. So I started to panic and regret my actions, trying to improvise by selling bitcoin temporarily so that I could make a little profit and buy it again. But a few weeks after I sold the bitcoin price continued to rise and went sideways. So at that time I was almost going to buy at a high price. Luckily I created a topic on a local board (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62436906) and got some advice so I didn't panic and stay calm. So I learned to be patient and finally BTC a few months or weeks later corrected again and I was able to buy again at a lower price than the price when I sold. It might sting a bit to think about what could have been if you held onto those BTC, but let's not forget the golden rule of crypto: it's a marathon, not a sprint. The market is dynamic, and opportunities are ever-present.
From there I learned to stick to the initial plan and separate trading and long-term investment.
I started selling Bitcoin from the year 2022 and personally I have not regretted to sell them because whenever I sold them I know that the period I am selling them, it is a bear market period and I sold not like that so there was no regret for that. Though friends around me have experienced regrets of saying that if they would have known they wouldn't sell the Bitcoin they sold. And I normally told them that if they can't beat the lose because of it volatile nature of Bitcoin they should not sell and hodle for the ATH. So that there will be no complain or regret.
Having bitcoin is the means to an end and not the end in itself. Regrets of selling will only make things worse and will not make any difference. At the time of selling your bitcoin for whatever reason it may be was done, was done with the best information you had at that time and with the best intention. Instead of having regrets, your focus should be increasing your income, more studying more and researching more about bitcoin, having a solid plan and strategy for re-entry into bitcoin.
The bitcoin community is not discriminatory. You can sell and re-enter at anytime and you will still be welcomed with opened arms into the community. I will quote a line from the holy book, go andsin sell no more.

We can't erase some thoughts that if we never sold our bitcoin before for sure we can currently earn a million of dollars at current rate. But if we also think about what are the things we bought for those bitcoin we sold for sure there will be no regret to happen in our side since it goes on right thing and we are happy at that time we sold our bitcoins.
But if it goes to those unimportant thing and you got broke today then struggle to earn bitcoins back again for sure that you would provably regret your past decision for selling bitcoin and would ever think about you are so lucky before then get stressed for remembering those good thing happen on the past. Maybe much better if we live on current situation and erase those past event especially those we think we commit a mistake since we will give a stress to ourselves on those unimportant matter.
Don't cry over spilled milk.
I guess this is always a thing with those people who sold their bitcoin early and regretted the possible potential profit they can get more if they waited for some time. I myself regretted selling my bitcoin at many points, I remember that I sold 3 bitcoins @400USD each just to buy a new phone. It is a regret that I have in spending so much money on a mobile phone that currently, I can't use because of old age. There are many stories like this and this is common with the old timers.
I wonder if the people who is listed on the VIP or have a donator position in this forum regretted that they donate bitcoins back then when it is still cheap. Though the custom title/position they have is pretty legendary given that the worth of that "donator" role rank increases as bitcoin go up.

Not quite about selling but not buying them in the past is regret we all have that we have discussed on forum many times.But I would say it's not about bitcoin particularly any other investment that we have missed or sold at less price turns out to be a big thing in future gives us a feeling of regret that we should have hold it more.But for me I have sold my bitcoins for profits and when I was in need of money but still hold some stash.So not too much of those bad feelings.

On multiple occasions I have regretted selling off some amount of my Bitcoin starch at one time or the other, and this feelings are not always the best for me and that is why I choose to not sell more than I can accumulates, sometime I tried by all means never to go that road again or going through anything that will put me in a position to sell my Bitcoin.But then investing in Bitcoin is Alston an investment for rainy days and if that day comes that you have a need for the money, is not a bad thing to change some to take care of bills and when you do that, you don't need to beat yourself for doing so, and you are not losing , but best advisable to invest and hold for a lot ng term.

Upon seeing the total spent on my Bitcoin wallet, yes, I felt regret.
But I already accepted it, because selling our Bitcoin helped us when we at the time we badly needed it.
At least we helped Bitcoin circulation as a way of payment.
Regular spending on Bitcoin helps promote its adoption to become a legitimate means of payment.
The more people use Bitcoin for everyday transactions, the more it becomes accepted by merchants and by many service providers.

This is a universal crypto truth – the struggle between holding and selling, the perpetual what-ifs. Everyone has their reason or target for holding or selling. With all its unpredictability, truly tests our nerves. I didn't feel regret about it back then because I was able to benefit from selling the satoshis I had accumulated. Bitcoin doesn't necessarily have to be held; sometimes, we also need to spend it to make it circulate. Perhaps it would have been a missed opportunity if you had prevented the sale; the profit could have been larger. However, when you see that the value has dropped, you can just say, "Luckily, I sold it."
But every decision is a lesson, right? The crypto journey is full of twists, and who knows what the future holds? It's not about the destination, but the journey.
