Opinion:

Last year, a lot of people learned about Bitcoin but did not learn what is actually the use of it. Some of them knew Bitcoin as a source of a large money where they will just invest and earn profit instantly. Simply to say, they just joined the hype train. That's one of the reasons for the price to go up.

When some of investors pulled-out their money during the Holidays, BTC price went down and these people who just jumped in the hype train also pulled out their holdings. Now, Bitcoin price went down and these people stopped investing with BTC.

Your opinion looks erroneous on many fronts. Basically, you forget that when you sell your coins, there is always another side or party to the trade. For you to sell the coins, someone has to buy them from you. In other words, you can't say that those who joined the hype club first put their capital into Bitcoin and then withdrew it. They didn't pull out the money invested and thus got stuck with the losses turning into long-term investors aka bag holders. They are the ones who bought from very few who actually jumped off the crashing train in late December.

Thankfully, the price is now in recovery and I am hopeful that it will reach or surpass the previous ATH.

Today's hold strategy can not create as high a profit as it did in the past. The current Crypto market is volatile as no one can predict their price. So rely on the experience you have to invest in Crypto, so you will succeed.

This morning I saw an article where a guy made a simple calculation through Google trends about HODL strategy, and it showed that call to HODL used less and less from February of 2018. Popularity of word Bitcoin and crypto currency is also falling down.
Why it is so? Do not people believe in Bitcoin and it's bright future anymore?
No matter on such tend I am going to HODL my founds till bitcoin will not come back to 20k$ Grin
Dont be exaggerating here,that grap runs last February when the dip is too active that same season the correction has been made,and hundreds of fud,wrong informations,fake news and trolls are happening so im pretty sure its not the way bitcoin must,try to make same thing today,as bitcoin almost stabilized then you'll find different factor

i think it's better cut loss and wait for price below again then we buy back, so there will be transaction in btc, and i think the price will not be this bad. if many people only hold btc so  market circulation will decrease

Yes, this is so true. Honestly, that is my current strategy right now. I holding FIAT currency and make an entry for short trading. I can't imagine for people who still hodl Bitcoin which it was bought at $19K
Personally, I am not a patient person and I can't hold crypto assets for a long period.

It's just a matter of strategy, if you believe that indeed the decision withstands long term then any risk has certainly will be borne. and it is also still commonly people use to invest because they believe hold the coin will give promising results.

People got disinterested in holding for the reason that they have experienced a lot of trouble with bitcoin dropping so much in value. Some had loses that they thought bitcoin will never rise in value again. And because of these, many feared holding coins is never profitable.

I do not think that . This is the best way for new entrants to enter the market. This is for me safe. When you trade but do not know much about the market, your chances of losing are very high.
indeed hold is the best way but until now many people who say hold but instead they even sell because of using people who are affected to be able to get big results

People don't rely on holding their coins to look for more gains, instead they just automatically sell their tokens upon received especially of some bounty hunters. Not totally we blame them cause there's a lot of factors affecting btc downtrend and somewhat to say that there might be a market manipulation by some big whales.
It is normal for some bounty hunters who actually do not care about the future of the coin or token to sell immediately and that is what makes an investor different or those bounty hunters who are not doing it for the quick gains but the long term and they try as much as possible to investigate the coin they are doing anything for even before they join.

HODL is effective but not returning the similar profits of trading anyway, since you would have been able to at least use the fluctuation to increase your position with trading where holding requires lots of waiting time period and only with price increase you may achieve what you prefer.

Its much better if you hold your btc longer rather sell it immediately because a lot of experts or believers of btc they suggest that holding is more vauble rather than dumping so if you hold your btc you can gain more profit from it. Don't listen to others if they spread negativity.
That's true in the case of bitcoin, you can hold as long as you want and will still be assured that its price will recover. So you should hold your bitcoin until you see a satisfiable profit if you sell, then you can buy again later when a dip occurs or in other words, buy bitcoin at a lower point of entry than you had before. But if you are unsure whether the price will dump again, better to hold on as long as you can if you want to maximize your profits.

Maybe it will affect those scammers project so that other people holding some sh*tcoins will affect also the value of bitcoins and other tokens, but if beliefs what your holding I think it didn't affect you and also the team who's working on to that projects.

I do not care about what others say about bitcoin, I personally still believe that bitcoin will continue to grow, those who say bitcoin have no chance to grow and even they say bitcoin will die if the market falls hard. Even though the market is falling hard, I will keep hold of bitcoin because I will still believe bitcoin will be great in the future.

Since the crypto-currency market has changed very much, it is also necessary to change the strategy in relation to the crypto-currency, depending on the behavior of the market. In addition, periodically it is necessary to revise the prospects of their coins, because these circumstances can also change. Those coins, which sometimes become not promising, need to be sold and replaced with more promising ones.

In relation to bitcoin, the strategy should also be volatile. Proceeding from the fact that bitcoin is growing in price by bursts, it is necessary to learn how to calculate the location of bitcoin at the time peak of its price and sell a certain part of it and when it fell in price - to buy. This will be quite profitable for bitcoin holders and is useful for bitcoin itself, since by such actions we will keep it in a more stable course.

I am believe bitcoin still have future. Bitcoin price start below $1 at 2009 and the price right now around $9000 if you recall bitcoin highest price $19k. Early 2017 bitcoin price below $1000 and right now $9000 and thats proves bitcoin is till worth to hold and holding bitcoin is profitable because price continue growing

Using word HODL is not the basis that people do not do that term. HODL is the word that perform by people and not just typing it. For sure there were many people that are hodling their bitcoins or cryptocurrencies until today.

Yes, price also depend on the demand they want but the circulation of bitcoin decreases so why would the price of bitcoin go up unless the supply of bitcoin is unlimited.

Holding can't make the circulation decreases, when bitcoin had mined it added in circulation in the market so even we hold it doesn't affect in any way. And the fact that we hold it and have a high demand and only few are wanting to sell then it'll affect the value. I believe holding bitcoin is still essential for us especially if we want the future will be in our hands.
