The guy really would have inspired a lot of people , at the same time he should have been listed in the wiki for the person who did quote the term HODL !! In the Crypto world , I did not know about this and thus thank you for sharing the information.
At the same time I do think the biggest holder of all time would be Mr. Satoshi Nakamoto since he did not touch his Bitcoins and since he is the one who made it , I like to believe that he does support the community from the shadows.
Too sad that the forum member GameKyuubi isn't very active of the forum.His last post is dated back in January 2020,but it appears that he is logged in and browsing the forum in August 13 2020.
I guess that he is too busy HODLing.
I agree with his post 100%.I myself can't pick the right time to sell my BTC,so I always sell at the wrong time/price.We are natural born HODLers.
Now with the new analysis of the profiles , if you were inactive for a certain time , you cannot gain much Campaigns and at the same time the consistency is valued , therefore maybe he did not want to participate ? We cannot know for sure but I hope the person knows we are talking about him in a good way .
The post is hard to read (it took me a few times), but there's an impressive amount of merits confirming that this is indeed the beginning of hodling. I do agree with him that hodling is a good strategy for people who aren't good at trading (like me) because hodling requires only patience and strong will, while trading can be very nervous, time-consuming and requiring some skills. I don't know what happened to this person (the guy is still relatively active on Bitcointalk, so at least probably alive), but he's been hodling at least as of May 2017 (you can see it from his post history). Even if he lost the ATH opportunity (and there's a chance he didn't), he'd be in great profit now, as pointed out by mk4. So ultimately it's probably the best strategy, albeit not risk-free.
At the same time it is good for those people who don't have much to trade and loose as for me trading is a little risky, I try it every once in a while but during quarantine I cannot afford to take risks , therefore I analyze that and realize how Holding is way better than doing something that you are not the expert in..
