It looks like you're are really sure that the Price of BTC will still rise as days go by. Well, This market is really unpredictable and unstable. There are no assurances that the trend of btc will still have an upward trend. The thing in Selling Bitcoin is not a partial exit, I prefer it smart investment. For example, you bought btc for $1 and suddenly after 2-3 days the it reach $10 point if you sell it. Then I would probably sell it, It's not an opportunity loss since you already gain enough money. A 10% ROI is already a signifacant win win situation for a single investor. In this industry taking to much risk can cause you Opportunity Loss. I know taking risks is part of this game but even in taking risks you must able to study and prepared for the possible outcome. As I always said, Be smart and cautious in making decisions.

Many posts discuss the possibility of exchange earnings with selling Bitcoin (and buy later). Other posts discuss the Bitcoin exchange rate, it seems that many agree there is a strong upward tendency and the volatility is hard to predict. It seems dat selling Bitcoin results in a serious probability of an opportunity loss. Selling Bitcoin can only be motivated by an (partial) exit. Do you agree?


Well i will based my opinion to the statements of others to their experience about bitcoins, well it is always depends on the users.  The other people sell it because they are into cash rather than crypto currency and sometimes sell it for some reasons while on the other hand, they hold their bitcoins because they believe that the value will continue rising.  So it depends to the person's strategies ..

Yes, selling coins can be an omission of the opportunity to get a good profit in the future. Those people who have now become millionaires thanks to bitcoin did not panic and kept their coins.
While there are many jokes about those that hold bitcoin for the long term, the truth is there is not a more effective strategy, not only in bitcoin, but in any type of investment than to invest early in a project and then hold for a very long time, and finally after you get your target profits you sell, but one of the problems is why are you going to sell your bitcoin? To get fiat? That is why most holders probably plan to hold for the rest of their life.

Ofcourse we sell to get fiat because a lot if merchants and payment processors around the world don't accept Bitcoin first hand and so if it becomes necessary to buy something and you're out of cash I think it makes every sense to exchange some of your bitcoins for cash. Some people are already rich in both fiat and Bitcoin and so such people can decide to hold until forever but it's not the same with everyone.
From the above quote it's clear that selling bitcoin is equal to losing opportunity. A clear description is that when the price increase the rich who holds fiat and bitcoin becomes rich. The one who have been trying to hold and by situation sells and has nothing when the price increase makes him live as he lived in the past. A growth opportunity is missed.

The real opportunity loss is if you sell your coins, you never returned to gain some more again. Stopping when you had your profit is the worst thing to do in the environment of Bitcoin. Yes you gained but by stopping, you limit yourself on how many you will earn. Bitcoin can give infinite benefits and earnings. You can sell your coins, it is your in the first place so whatever you want to do with it is nothing in our concern. However, if you get over with Bitcoin, it is your loss.

It will only be a loss if you sold your bitcoin without planning what to do with the money.

I would sell my bitcoin not just because the price is high but because I see another opportunity
other than holding bitcoin and it might be an another way to earn and expand and increase my earnings
in cryptocurrency.

That is the proof that holding bitcoin for long term is the best because there is a lot of bitcoin users that already reached the million mark in their income from just bitcoin alone. Bitcoin is just a stepping stone from being poor to being rich, if we will do it correctly then we can expect a lot of positive things to receive and have a chance to become a millionaire someday.

You are assuming that the price will continue to rise. That is not guaranteed, so selling is not necessarily lost opportunity.

Selling may be the way to maximize your return, but it depends on the risk of holding.
Selling is actually a normal thing to do. It may help the stock of bitcoin to have a balanced on the market. If it will going to be a loss or an opportunity it depends. Because if you will sell and just used it to buy thing through transaction no improvement or earning will take place but if you will invest it on a trading you may have an interest just make sure to sell when it's high and buy when it's low.

You can only say opportunity loss when you sold your Bitcoin without gaining profit. There is always an opportunity when selling or buying Bitcoin, you only have to check the price by that you'll know when to buy and sell to gain profit.
Yup, you say right! I not know why reason many people don't sell when highest price and after the price fall down, they sell it although not take loss, but they say that  is make they loss more Huh Just because of their greed, they blame market =))

Indeed, greed is the first factor that makes people drown in the losses. They think that price will go up and up again, but suddenly when they start seeing price drop they do a panic sell leading to complete loss of the money. It is such a logical thing that if you have 10% incriminate order then that is also your profit. There should be complete personal understanding about the market and how to grab your profits.
A person with patience and a cool mind can be a successful investor. It is well known that the prices of currencies fall and rise consistently whether they be fiat currencies or cryptocurrency. We  should not get panic when we see a decrease in the respective currency we have invested in especially in the case of bitcoin because bitcoin rather recovers its lost value rather quickly because of its resilient nature.

Bitcoin can be considered one of the best performing currency whose value increases more rapidly, holding will always benefits the holder. From this I strongly believe into the fact of selling bitcoins must be equivalent to losing great opportunity of life time.
I differ from the point that selling bitcoin is an opportunity loss. Bitcoin is set to rise year by year because of limited supply and demand will obviously increase with years. That means selling bitcoin anytime would mean an opportunity loss. Investment doesn't work this way. If you have made a decent profit and you are satisfy, then you can exit. There is nothing wrong in that. For more and more profit you can't afford to keep your money in your investment like forever.

I think this thing is not predictable.because every opportunity is depend on the subject itself.therefore nobody can say that selling bitcoin today is lossing an opportunity.i guess theres a lot of option should be handle in this  case.we really dont know what would happen to the bitcoin price in the next 3 months from now.
That is why everybody cant say that selling it is lossing an opportunity.
Investing in any asset can be a risky business. Patience and skill is required when making critical decisions while investing. If we talk about about bitcoin, the value of bitcoin is constantly increasing making it stronger day by day. That is why people do not recommend selling the bitcoin now because the value of bitcoin can easily sky-rocket in a matter of minutes. In this way a more marginal profit can be earned than originally invested in.

It is a mistake to blame the market for our losses, I have always thought of the market as I think of mother nature, if you are dumb enough to build a house near a cliff then you cannot complain when your house is destroyed by a natural occurrence it was your decision to put the house there in the first place, so those that buy at the incorrect time and lose money cannot blame the market they are the ones responsible for it.

I understand that, it's their fault, they are too greedy to make a lot of money, but then they do not believe in bitcoin anymore, and they are willing to sell it when it's low in value. I call them weak.
I do not think anyone will know which is the best chance or opportunity they have. Everyone is just predicting, it is possible now is the right time to sell because the price will go down Or at this time is not right because the price will soon rise. Everyone does not know that.
Considering the recent variations in the value of bitcoin, it can be seen that the value of bitcoin has been consistently been increasing so it is fair to assume that the value of bitcoin will further assume. This theory can be further strengthened by the fact that more and more people have started to use the crypto-currency especially bitcoin especially investors.

It is clear to everyone that if investors invest their capital in a currency, that currency further strengthens. So, it is highly unlikely that the value of bitcoin will decease anytime soon.

Great picture, it is really true that selling bitcoin is like choosing whether we are going to die or we are going to hold our bitcoin. I will hold my bitcoins because i really believe about the opportunity behind it and the possibilities of income that can bitcoin give to us if we will just hold.

Bitcoin is volatile in nature.It may increase or decrease as per the variations in demand.But we can clearly see that bitcoin is getting legalized in some countries.Mass adoption of bitcoin is taking place all over the world.Since transaction fee is once again getting reduced,more people would once again show interest in using bitcoins.So,bitcoin price would increase more.It may even cross $3000 within two months.So,selling bitcoin at this time would be an opportunity loss.
It is agreed that bitcoin is highly volatile in nature. It can increase or decrease but if we study the graph of its value it can be clearly seen that since a few years bitcoin has rapidly increased its value.

It is a fact that it also decreases but only declines for a few seconds and due to bitcoin's resilient nature, it’s quickly recovers its value. So, bitcoin should consistently be used in the online market especially in the investment sector because it guarantees a profit for its investor. However selling bitcoin at this time can be considered as a loss because at this rate bitcoin is increasing rather very quickly.

I have a penny bank on one wallet, just put there 20% of my weekly earnings, for any case. Who knows how high bitcoin will grow?! I'm already regret that I didn't invest in bitcoin the last year when the price was just 200$ Cheesy

What i have learn from the bitcoin market till now is the more you hold the bitcoins the more you will get profit. I suggest you to wait a little more because it will going to rise high in the upcoming months.
