For every SODL, there is more dirty fiat hiding and waiting to buy back.
Really? Is that why the price has been going down for months?
Yes the price has been going down since December 2013; however, the price has been going up since January 2011.
You found one. I don't like the holding technique. For one, it assumes that bitcoin is immortal and that it's upwards growth and price trend are infinite. I do not have such a faith. Have a stubborn hold mindset about any investment and one day you will end up going down with a sinking ship even when the chart told you a hundred times that you needed to sell.
I agree that there is nothing wrong with that kind of healthy skepticism. That is why a large number of people in the bitcoin space are expecting bitcoin to have a lot of upside potential. So, yes, maybe you will find some other investment that is more suitable towards your risk tolerance and your comfort level and your feelings /assessments about future potential.
I get the sense that as you are leaving, there are plenty more people willing to buy your bitcoins and to take your place.. and bitcoin is like no other investment... .. .... though you can find what is suitable to your own.. situation and needs..
