Congratulations! It sounds like you're starting to realize you've been fooling around. Just buy Bitcoin and hold and cut the bullshit. It seems unbelievable that you have been on this forum for 3 years already.
this happened to me too, i sold at low prices (8000$-12000$) and i wasn't fully invested on bitcoin in particular, and now it got to a point were it reached $60k i regret not holding for a very long period of time, and i was always thinking that something can happen and cause bitcoin to go down, it was the main reason for me to not hold (and also my gambling addiction) and now that the price of bitcoin is really high, i feel like the highest it could get this year is about $75k ( won't make a lot of profit ) and it also could go down and that would be the right time for me to buy. 
Topic: No BTC Holding is risky - page 5. (Read 1025 times)
I have sold my BTC earlier @$31k-$35k range long ago. I have invested in altcoin then and made some great profits although I had to lose 50% at the end. Now, I own almost no cryptocurrency other than USDT and a few trash coins.
Yesterday, I was scrolling newsfeed on twitter and got someone tweeted like this, "No BTC holding is risky.' This is somewhat true when I thought it deeply. Now, I got the same feeling. It’s risky to not own any bitcoin. Fiat is getting devalued all the time.

As we face life with strong fate, risking on different phases just to live and despite of that we still choose that options. Thinking about fiat became devalued, I don't think so because its our tool for digital currency to be worthy of our profit gains. Without that, we won't experience all those benefits we wanted to have. Fiat is very important for physical spending, and bitcoin is our digital asset which provide us an opportunity to earn profit without any running physical business despite of the risk.
At this point bitcoin has already established its place in the market and had been keeping its position quite solid for the past few years. It would be a waste indeed if we are not to invest even a small percentage of our money meant for investing and crypto in such a valuable asset with high potential for profits. Although the fear and the doubts are justified, knowing that there isn't really a big and full-blown use-case basis for bitcoin unlike its successors in the market, the profitability severely counteracts this, making it still one of the biggest coins in the market up to this day.
Well, the reason for that is simply because bitcoin is an ever-increasing product, do you really think that in 5 years bitcoin will not be over the price of what it is right now? The shorter term, like inside of 1 year, you could maybe lose money, or even in 2 years, but in 5 years everybody knows you will make money from investing into bitcoin.More and more people starting to learn this, sure "how much" is still a question in everyone’s mind, but when the world knows that there is a product that you are guaranteed to make profit, the question of how much becomes less important because there are very rare things in life that guarantees profit and how much will be just a surprise. So, I have to say it is definitely going to be easy for more and more people to be convinced to buy it. When they are convinced that means price will go up because they bought too.
I don't know OP who told this is on tweeter, but he said right. Last three months I have been holding Bitcoin. When I Bitcoin was $41K I hadn't sold it. But when starts to drop and become $38K, then I thought it would dump more and I should sell it. I did the same as thought, just sold all my holding and convert it into USDT. Now Bitcoin is trading above $48 which is $10K+ where I had sold. Isn't it become true that not holding Bitcoin is risky? I just realized it in my life. Definitely, I will keep it in my form now. However, thanks for sharing it here, because I just realized my mistakes again and learn.
If you have sold because you need that profit, that's fine. But you should also have that long term plan upon holding bitcoin.
It's risky to say not to own bitcoin because you're going to miss a lot. And that's why whenever you sell, make sure that you will also have that time and price to buy back so that you won't miss every time bitcoin goes up.
That's what some people don't get, that sometimes you need to sell your bircoin because you have some needs that needs fulfilling and the attention to those needs to be immediate. Totally agree with not owning any bitcoin, have experienced missing a lot of profit back then and I don't want that to happen again.

Yes absolutely big percentage should be on Bitcoin, I have mine on 50% because it is a coin where its price follows by all altcoins and the market goes up and down depending on what kind of news Bitcoin is receiving, although there are altcoins that's performing good in the market, we should not replace Bitcoin as your leading portfolio because the community still voted Bitcoin to be their main coin in their portfolio.
For sure.
People have to realise that risk is a time-based concept. The definitions of risk-free in the short and long runs are completely different.
For instance, in the very short run, cash is risk free as it is guaranteed to hold most of its value. However, if you zoom out to the big picture, equities and cryptos become much safer assets the longer you hold them, whilst fiat is a surebet to lose all your money eventually.

I wish I were not totally get out of BTC, atleast holding certain percentage. That was a bad move certainly but what can I do now. I was planning to wait some more months but it doesn’t seem like we will see the dump anytime soon, maybe never in my range to get in.
Well, now I'm considering atleast going with DCA so that I don’t have to miss the train totally.

No doubt, it was indeed a bad move - but many others also expected the price to go down - although $29k was successfully defended on several occasions, indicating that the trend must change at some point, and that happened. While the past may not always be a good indicator that something is sure to happen again, when it comes to BTC some patterns are definitely repeating - and the biggest price growth always happens in the year after halving. If you look at 2017, you will see the same pattern - a few major corrections during the year, and then a big bull run at the end of the year.
If you want to get back in the game you really have no choice but to buy again, and by the end of the year maybe the price will reach $100k which would mean a good profit.

Going from "bitcoin is risky" to "not having any btc is more risky" you are called grown up and realising how bitcoin is not about making money but also about replacing money.I am glad you was only 50% down and if you have not sold them you would be saying i invested $100 and now i don't have any so stack sats instead of those shitcoins out there.Getting a pie of bitcoin is better than getting full load of shit cakes Yesterday, I was scrolling newsfeed on twitter and got someone tweeted like this, "No BTC holding is risky.'

Not for all dude, we have deferent kind of experience luckily as of this moment i did not lose to any of my trades . Yes still holding Bitcoin is very risky but it is up to you how you manage the risk. Yesterday, I was scrolling newsfeed on twitter and got someone tweeted like this, "No BTC holding is risky.'

It is very silly to own any altcoins when bitcoin is rising because altcoins get dumped during bitcoin rallies but not as hard as when bitcoin is dropping. It is also silly because altcoins don't have any long term potentials due to lack of utility, which makes "holding" them long term a very bad decision.
Now, I own almost no cryptocurrency other than USDT and a few trash coins.
Wrong. You only own shitcoins because Tether is no an exception. In fact it is categorized amongst the riskiest shitcoins due to being both shady and centralized. 
Everyone who believes on cryptocurrency have the same feeling. Looking the growth taking place with bitcoin and different altcoins it looks like we're in risk not holding any cryptocurrency. Even if it is a shitcoin, it doesn't matter. Maybe you can be lucky to make millions out of the shitcoin.
There are some circumstances wherein we can't avoid but to sell our btc holdings. I've been into the said situation for quite some time in the past, though I assured myself that I would still be trying to buy and gain more bitcoin as much as my budget allows. Currently I managed to earn a pretty good amount that I think will be worth something significant in the future, and I refuse to let go of what I have right now since there isn't really anything that is worth it enough for me to sell my stash.
You can always build your btc stash anytime, and just hold it tightly for you to not repeat the same mistake again. Other projects that are existing aren't really worth your while tbh.

You might make out some bad decision but what matter most is that you do earn profit and that's the main priority on why we are here on this market and also it isn't still too late for you to accumulate bitcoin.Yesterday, I was scrolling newsfeed on twitter and got someone tweeted like this, "No BTC holding is risky.'

This is actually a personal preference on where you do have the feeling that you should at least have bitcoin included into your portfolio and some do even minding about accumulating as much as they can which do came from into their altcoin investment.
Its a personal point of view since we can either choose both or neither between those two but literally we are just sharing on the same mindset or goal which is to make profits.
If you have sold because you need that profit, that's fine. But you should also have that long term plan upon holding bitcoin.

We have different reasons on why we sold our bitcoin and not everyone can afford to hold since sometimea our daily needs always be the one prioritized by certain individuals which only have small capital to use on their crypto investments. But even if thats the case we shouldn't forget to save a little volume since even if we save 0.001 btc everyday for sure this one will get a greater value in future.

Someone can equally said that bitcoin holding is risky, the question is how? Because looking at everything, weather business or any other thing we adventure into, from my perspective everything is risky, if bitcoin holding is risky what about the process whereby bitcoin get increased than the amount the holder used to purchase it before it get accelerated in price, holding a bitcoin is just like investing or banking your money, so from my perspective i haven't seen any where bitcoin is bad by holding it.
No bitcoin no risk at all because you’re money is still in your wallet and there’s no chance for you to lose it so technically there’s no risk the only problem here is that, you are missing the opportunity to make money if you just invested that money to Bitcoin.
Cryptomarket is a risky market and for you to lessen the risk, you should invest on good projects and coins and having Bitcoin in your wallet can be a good assurance that you can still earn in the future. Taking profit with Bitcoin is fine, there’s no wrong to sell Bitcoin at all.

Indeed it was risky all the time, you're partly right because we're now already at wave 5 of current chart patterns, so definitely if you're afraid to take that another opportunity we should be grabbing it. However, regrets in the end will follow if price would abruptly pumping after that. Of course you should consider it as lost of opportunity if I'm not mistaken.
A risky that you might lose the chance if you don’t have Bitcoin.
I don’t know why people still prefer a meme token over a good coin like Bitcoin, I believe they are more into a quick profit than to invest and hold.
Peronally, Holding bitcoin is one of my best decision, I know it will continue to grow just like now where the price pumps a lot. Its more risky if you don’t have crypto yet in your wallet.
