I don't know about you but for me I will only hold coins for long term if we see a unforgiving bear market ( better buying opportunity ), I believe bear market hold the key to long term holding, I can't buy coins at high price sorry ( present market is buying at high price) and decide to hold for years, I will only buy now to sell later ( short term ).. stupid idea? Let's hear your thoughts
I think there is no right or wrong as far as crypto investments goes.
You can go buy and then sell at short term and make a profit. Or hold for a long time, meaning buy in a bear market when the price is very very cheap and at a discounted price and then HODL. And it should be a long hold, at least 2-3 years or at least wait for the next bull market to maximised your profit.
If not then just continue to hold, at least this is what I understand for some here in the community. Specially for those who are really in the market for many many years and have enough experience and mental toughness to hold for a long long time.
