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!

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.

Bitcoin just a asset and life if all of yours. you can survive without bitcoin became there are many asset available to maintain financial conditions so bitcoin is not only your financial backup. so if you are sell your bitcoin to manage your emergency moment then it was not any wrong decision then. but if you sell your bitcoin for your bad habits like gambling, drugs etc then it was your big mistake to sell your bitcoin. do everyone's matter is not same

Selling my Bitcoin has never been a decision I regret, as each transaction served a purpose dictated by presing needs or essential financial goal . I approach Bitcoin with patience, recognizing it potential to surpass its current value by leaps and bounds . While the thought of having sold it for less than its peak value might sting momentarily, I understand that my decsions were driven by immediate requirements . I refrain from impulsive actions in the Bitcoin market , confident that its true potential is yet to be realized , and any past transactions were essential steps in navigating the evolving landscape of digital assets.

Yes many times I would say. I have always sold the Bitcoins when I am in need of emergency money. Else I never sell Bitcoins regularly. After selling the Bitcoins, I notice that always Bitcoins have gone up. And for that I regret that, If I would have sold it later in time, then I could have made some more cash from it. Nevertheless it’s human nature, we never gets happy with the things we have, we always wants more.

True, but if we make use of it wisely—as you mentioned, in an emergency—there is nothing wrong with it as long as we understand that we are in dire need of the money and that selling your bitcoin is our only viable alternative. Of course, you also need to believe that this will truly benefit you in your life. Since time cannot be stopped, conditions will always arise. Nevertheless, we should be grateful that, even in the worst of situations, we can always sell our bitcoin and use the money earned to potentially address our current issue.
Though we may come to regret it later, we can always start over, as we never know when we might hang onto our Bitcoin and end up with a larger profit.

Re: Have you ever regretted selling your bitcoins ?

Nope. I didn't experience that.

What I experienced is that, I regretted "NOT" selling my Bitcoins. That happened on 2021 where the bull market started. I'm holding Bitcoin and some altcoins at that time, and I'm constantly watching the market going up. I have a mindset at that time where I say that "I will continue to hold it, and will wait for the next bull run." To cut the story short, I didn't took the profits that I might got if I sold all of my tokens during the bull run. I think I was x3 or even x4 at that time already. I can just buy it during the bear market, but I made a wrong decision.

Well, it's a lesson learn for me. I will sell all of my cryptocurrency holdings when the bull run starts, and I will never regret selling those Bitcoins because I can just buy it when the bear market starts. There's nothing regretting when it comes to selling tokens especially your Bitcoin.

For me it is normal when beginners do it because they don't know how bitcoin can increase to infinity or they just want to try it for the first time in bitcoin so selling so fast even though the profit is, for example, 20% and then after selling the price goes up it is clear that there is a solution and can be a lesson for those who are beginners.

From the beginning of regret they will learn how important it is to hold bitcoin longer, I think that they will do in the future to get better and analyze quickly carefully about the next profit target.

Beginners who invest in Bitcoin generally only choose the safest assets. they are not afraid that the project will fail like a new project. So when they see profits in a short time, beginners tend to panic sell. Problems may also occur when there is a significant price drop.

more beginners are making Bitcoin purchases without a price target to achieve. they make purchases on the exchange and hold them until the price rises. there is no market analysis or time frame planning for their internship. provided a satisfactory price is achieved, they will sell Bitcoin.

regret will be felt. but at least they should have better planning for future investments. and they will know what to do when Bitcoin dumps or pumps.

Every so often threads with similar questions appear to be asked by newbies and the cycle starts again. The newbie gets a few merits and members start posting versions of events that might be economical with the truth.

I think most people do at some stage have regrets but it is a fact of life. Those that are able to easily move on and look forward to what else could be achieved in Bitcoin (as they participate in campaigns or buy small amounts of BTC regularly) probably have a better chance to enjoy what comes next. Having regrets will not help anybody unless they use that regret to ensure they do not repeat their mistakes.

I sold my Bitcoin and purchased ETH, but then the price of ETH dropped. Subsequently, I regretted this decision and sold part of my ETH to buy back BTC, only to see BTC's price drop as well.

Wrong move at the wrong time~

If I did not do anything, I think I can rest on the beach now

If you sold bitcoin to solve more urgent and important tasks, why would you regret it? Suppose if you don't have bitcoin, how will you have money to solve those urgent tasks? Therefore, there is nothing to be sad about selling bitcoin, bitcoin is only valuable when it can serve our lives better, not something that can be held until death without using it. Furthermore, we will always be able to buy back bitcoins whenever we have the money, so I don't regret selling my bitcoins.

I guess for every newbie, we all have our first mistakes of selling bitcoin at a wrong time. Not because we need urgent funds, but because we really think that it’s the peak of the price and the best time to sell bitcoin. But afterwards, bitcoin price continues to move upward leaving us regretting why we sell earlier.

It’s never bad to regret but one thing is important, we should learn a lesson from there. And realized that bitcoin has unlimited price increase, we just have to determine whether there are factors pulling or pushing the price itself.

That’s the disadvantage if you don’t have a stable flow of income, you will most likely sell bitcoin most especially if you are having sudden financial problems. However, no matter how often we hear advice like saving for emergency funds, I guess people still find it hard to follow. We may save at its first days or months but eventually we end up using the funds.

Thankfully, we have bitcoin on one hand that can save us from having financial issues. But it would bring more advantage to us if we can hold our bitcoin and only sell it when it reaches our target price. Such easy to say but actually hard to follow when you’re actually hodling bitcoin.

when you sold your bitcoins, you probably needed the money badly. And it is best to sell Bitcoin in times of need and use the money without any regrets later. Because after you solve the present problem and survive, you can later recover losses of your past. So you should never regret selling something if necessary.

If he has sold the bitcoins because of his need, he has done the right thing. If he has sold the bitcoins without any urgent need, then he has done the wrong thing. We have to wait for a long time. But after investing, I think it is natural that we have to sell the invested bitcoins if we face any big danger.

I think it is not a wrong decision to sell Bitcoin, but when the opportunity to buy Bitcoin comes again we are not taking the right opportunity. If one needs fund or not, but if good profit is getting then selling would be right.No one has ever seen a complete top in any season. The current price of Bitcoin has not reached this point due to constant upswing, but rather the Bitcoin has always fluctuated in its value. A good investor is one who waits for a low price again after making a good profit and buys Bitcoin again when the opportunity arises.

People who didn't sell Bitcoin at $67,000 compared to those who sold Bitcoin around $60,000 and bought back when the market dropped below $20,000.I think those who sold bitcoin made a better decision than those who still hold bitcoin. This means that those who are buying and selling are at a higher profit, while those who are holding are at a lower profit.

I have regrets when I used to only focus on trading Bitcoin but always didn't leave any money to specifically buy Bitcoin to save for the long term. But that's in the past because in the past few years since the bearishness started after the last halving I started to learn how important it is to have bitcoin to keep for the long term. So I started always setting aside profits from trading to accumulate bitcoins using the DCA method. And I continue to do it every time I have a profit from a trade. And now I am happy with the steps I have taken. because anyone here who has started accumulating since the price was below 17k will definitely feel the pleasure I mean. But because the goal is for the long term, I choose not to care too much about the multiple returns that already exist in my portfolio and stay focused on trading and my DCA.

Sad but true mate, Sometimes I asked why when after selling my bitcoin the price will grow and brings sadness to me but kept happening and nothing we can do because we need money and have to pay bills and to eat.
so what can we do but to sell and regret tomorrow as how many times we have done this.

Right now is the best time to buy Bitcoin. During the Bitcoin Halving is when Bitcoin is at it's lowest price. April 22, 2004 is the Bitcoin Halving.

at least you know what thread are you posting? we are talking about regression here and not of how and when to buy.

Yeah the regret is always there but priorities will be on top specially if it was well spent for the family's needs. But yeah as long as we're here with Bitcoin it is always possible to fill those gaps.

Oh yes I definitely regret my decision of selling my BTCs back in 2017-2018.

Back in those years, 0.0075 BTC was only around $5-$10 at that time. I was earning that amount of BTCs weekly from different campaign signatures and I used those money in order to purchase study materials back in college. In hindsight, I should have definitely saved at least 50% of those BTCs as I was not expecting its price to reach our current price of ~$41,000.

Moral of the story: Always anticipate that the price of BTC may increase in the future. Given that there is another fork happening in a few months from now, it is definitely recommended to HODL your BTCs either for short or long-term investment.

Same here on which i did make active sells and dont save up a partition of those coins on which considering on how easy to earn or accumulate 1BTC on that time on which i might be able to save up
but well past is past and there's no way that we could really take it back and it is really that hard to turn back the time. Well into those times which Bitcoins price is still cheap on which accumulation a whole coin
would really be that easy but now in todays price and that ATH then we can really be having that kind of regrets that we should have save up more into those early days on which we have started.
Most of people on this forum does have that long experience into this market and seen out this Bitcoin journey.

For those who had missed out that golden train then they would really be trying to catch up their luck with those new altcoins and this is why they would really be trying to catch up
with those cheap prices and this is why it would really be ending up on getting rugpulled and bagholding tons of shitcoins. This is why its better to stick
to Bitcoin for long term aspect and some L1 coins in the market too on which it would really be worth on holding too.

This is the Only regret that keeps lingering in my mind up to now , not mentioning my losses in ICO and IEO , not telling my losses in some shitcoin i bought and sold at losses, but yeah when I kept selling my Bitcoin back in 2018 upto 2023 now I completely regret those days.
that if I kept all of those(not spending in gambling) maybe I am more than 5 bitcoin richer now but year need to accept that reality yet I cannot erase completely in my mind, promising not to do it again as a reminder for me.
