Surprised that you have such patience. I wonder if it was better to sell not so long ago?

BTC climbed 2 times to the 65-69K range and then fell to the 30-35K range. These 2 were great opportunities to sell and buy back. But you never know before so I don't regret a thing. There is no guarantee for anything.

What would make you not sell at those points, especially if you started holding when you said you did? I do not think it is a wise decision. Something makes me feel there is a missing information that you have not sold anything from the bitcoin you have since 2013 or is the amount you are holding something very small that can not do anything for you? I find it hard to swallow. I can be wrong on my feeling, i can also be right. Is there any evidence to prove this? That will also help to make more people believe in long term holding if you can provide us this.

I won't sell even if will reach $70,000 this year. But I consider selling 10-15% if it will get into the $1xx,000 range... to be honest I will only sell when I feel it's time to sell it. It just wasn't the time yet.

The OP is a rich person to do that. Some people are trying to see some money for food, shelter and clothing but they don't have. It is when you have enough that you will leave investment since 2013. I remember when I bought btc so many years ago, I lost them. The remaining I could have I still sold them to take care of my rent. I don't use to regret of not keeping the btc because there was no other money to use and sustain.

not a problem rich, I believe it has to do with consistency in investing. consistency and trust are must-haves for those who invest long term in Bitcoin.
who would believe Bitcoin could be as expensive as it is now in 2013? only those who have full faith or maybe those who have forgotten the assets they own are most likely to experience all of this.
Everyone's emotional abilities are different. how we deal with the bull and bear markets is of course important for long-term investment. but holding assets for a dozen years is certainly something very difficult.

I'm not rich. But I dream becoming rich. BTC is my only real option in this life as I doubt I'll ever win the lottery. This is why I HODL BTC and don't plan selling more than 10-15% even on the next ATH. BTC has the potential to reach 6 digits and it's only a matter of time in my opinion.

Hi everyone, it's been awhile, just wanted to tell you that I still haven't sold a bit of BTC since 2013... if I can do it you can do it too!

Some of you may say it's a dumb decision or risky, but I'm all for BTC and positive about it. To the Moon!

Wow you are an exemplary role model, how can you do that? this is really interesting. do you not want to be rich because the price of Bitcoin in 2013 compare with the price in 2022 is very profitable if you sell it now. HOLD : The key to success and you've been through it. That's great dude !!

Surely he didn't went in financial troubles during among the past years. Otherwise, i don't expect him to hesitate cash some of them out.
Also there is no problem using some of them at any time if he is holding a large amount of bitcoin. This is why i expect him to have a portion which got price doubled many times but still not that significant amount.
Whatever, op represents the great example for all of us, especially those who didn't hold their savings when the price was below $1K .

I'm impressed to know that someone had the guts to "hodl" Bitcoin since 2013, even with the constant ups and downs in price. Not many people are capable of doing this. If you keep "hodling" without selling a single satoshi, then you'll be on a road towards becoming an multi-millionaire person. Those who get into Bitcoin now, will have to wait a little bit to become rich as market prices are still down.

Knowing that the pioneer cryptocurrency's supply is extremely limited, tells me that it'll keep crossing new All-time-highs over time. As long as you don't invest more than what you can't afford to lose, you'll have nothing to worry about. Cheers, mate!

amazing thing I don't think it's stupid I think, where you can hold your bitcoins until now, even though seeing the current price is not comparable with the price last year I believe you have a purpose in this case why are there still holding your bitcoin

Every investor has their own goals and it must be done. Some people will probably regret not selling last year, we know last year bitcoin hit ATH.
The year 2013 is not a short time, it takes more patience for that, but this is a lesson for us bitcoin users, that holding bitcoins in the long term will make us profit many times over. And it can be done if we intend to do it.

^ But OP was right, 1BTC will remain 1BTC even if you are holding on to it nothing will be lost.
Holding BTC for too long is possibly your way of exercising self-discipline. Probably you have positive thoughts about BTC, which is why you have still held it since 2013 and are still expecting big returns from it, very impressive. You have a level of patience that not everyone possesses because the vast majority of people want to enjoy their assets as soon as possible, and there is nothing wrong with it. Keep up the good work not to become a weak hand.

I'm really amazed if you haven't sold BTC till now. Selling now maybe you've got a lot of profit, but maybe you have a target that you must achieve. Bitcoin ATH will still continue. You are really DIAMOND HAND, able to hold bitcoin from 2013 till now. you have firm belief and are not tempted to sell bitcoins immediately.

clearly what he did was certainly very convincing because he did not budge even though at the last ATH $69,044.77 was quite high that was acceptable. not everyone is able to be able to do things like that because of obstacles where there is a great desire to be able to take and use for other things. This is what he may not have because he still doesn't need it and will keep it until his main goal at a preferred price can be achieved.
I really appreciate what you've done and it's certainly not easy in any situation.

Everyone can be like OP if we really intend to. Its just that we fall into weak hands every time we'll witness a new ATH, and we always have time to sell. But i'm not saying there is wrong with that, of course we should always sell when their is good opportunity to make profits, and then buy again when the market is dumping. But i believe OP has his own target price when to sell, and he has strong hands not to be tempted easily with the current peaks. It's definitely risky, but with bitcoin, everything is worth hodling for the longest time.

FIAT is the worst thing to keep your money in. If you cash out BTC buy a house right away, buy a property, but don't leave FIAT in the bank. Those are wasted money. BTC is safe and will give you back 100x compared to the inflationary FIAT. I wouldn't keep more than $50,000 in FIAT money ever. Those will lose their value with every passing year.

if you don't have an urgent need for money that is too important, I think saving bitcoins as an investment asset is a better option than we invest in other fields that may provide relatively small returns a few years later, but to save value for money, of course it is possible to save gold it would be better than us saving fiat money right now, because I feel that the gold price in the next few years will not be too affected by any conditions in the world, besides that we are all here, of course, have experience of urgent needs, thus forcing us to sell the assets we have it even at a very cheap price, that's why it's better than now for us to arrange better financial management, so that when an emergency comes, we don't have to touch investment assets to cover those emergency needs.

Actually, in the long run, sometimes bitcoin will rise to the moon and sometimes it will go down, at least there is nothing to sell, in fact, to be honest, even if I am a newbie, I will try to find at least a small amount of bitcoin and if just in case I am lucky I will sell it at an affordable price and of course I will make sure that the price of bitcoin will actually increase on the day I sell bitcoin ..

lol you are accumulating bitcoin just to sell? then what is your point about OP's post?

op's topic is about not selling a single satoshi but what you are saying is to collect and sell? you should understand the OP first before setting your post .

Quote from: Newbie. on February 02, 2022, 08:53:59 AM

I don't sell my BTCs either. I just swap part of them for other coins, and then I sell them

But more often I just use them for their intended purpose, of course

so you still release your Bitcoin so what is this about the OP? you are just posting your link and shitposting here lol.

It's the nature of bitcoin and that's because it is highly volatile. It recovers quick and goes dump fast too. But about selling, when someone is pressured and he wants to sell due to panic, he has to avoid that temptation if he wants to remain holding.

Yes, we're the same on that. It's unavoidable to sell and if you see that the price seems to be good already and you're happy with the profit that you'll be getting, it's hard not to sell so, those that are holding for so many years, they've endured the temptation.

Volatility would be always there and selling decisions will really be a personal choice because we do have different target with our investment and if you haven't sold for a while

then its your choice and since its your money then someone couldn't really give out their advices on what you should gonna do.If you had able to held it for long term then its

good but just as said by other members on this forum that not everyone doesn't need to hold and they do have different priorities that's why situations would really vary.

Well, I started in 2015 and after the bull run in 2017, I learnt not to be selling all my Bitcoins. This time around what I’m doing is to be selling a part of the coins I have in my wallet and making sure that there is still a part that is left in the wallet always. That way I’m sure that there is an amount that is there in my wallet and always increasing in value over the years as the market continues to gain more and more value. It’s very important to make Bitcoin part of your savings because we already know that the Fiat currency is inflationary and would be losing value; as it loses its value, Bitcoin will continue to be gaining more value.

Not a bad idea if you do put up your savings in crypto and just spending out some portion of it when you are in need and its true about that fiat inflation but wont really be that totally risks free if you do

save up all of your money in crypto but since you are benefiting and able to save up yourself in times of need then it wasnt a bad idea since from the start.Hodling does benefit out someone

but it is only good for those coins which does really have that kind of potential but if not then you would really be doing gambling.
