I have been monitoring so many post about HODL! HODL!! HODL!!! I am a victim of that but I have sat down and analyzed something. We should all know what will happen when we all decide to HODL. This will be one of the deadliest that will ever happen in cryptocurrencies. When we all decide to HODL I think the markets will go down and the green markets we want will never com. Also BTC will die when we all decide to HODL. I think we can at the same time SELL and BUY to keep our greatest cryptocurrency alive. I stand to be corrected and also we can add some to it as to what will happen.
I do not really agree with what you say. Actually, when people decided to HOLD, it means that the supply of BTC will decrease, when the other people wanna buy more, then the prices will go up. This is an Economic law, when supply is lower than demand them the prices will go up. So the price will go up when people decided to HOLD and BUY More.

I think it can affect bitcoin so much because if no one sells and everyone holds the price of it will be stable because there is no changing about the people who wanted to buy it.
if that happens the whole coins becomes scare and scarcity is one of the factors that drives the prices of product high.
The second thought is correct. Scarcity makes the price go higher but the first thought is not. The coin doesn't really become "scarce". The amount of coins in the world will still be the same. What's scarce is the number of coins in the market/the ones that are up for sale. The volume will be really low and thus the market will be a lot more volatile. Assuming that there will be constant demand for it, the price will go high. On the other hand, bitcoin is not something that's really that in demand when you look at the global scale. Thinking how little is the community of bitcoin users compared to how much people there actually is in the world, when the volume of bitcoin has become really low, people might not buy it and just start using a different coin. People might not care about it, is what I'm saying.and then gets more acceptance from the global community
I really don't see a relationship between the coin's volume going really low and its acceptance to the world.
if that happens the whole coins becomes scare and scarcity is one of the factors that drives the prices of product high and in this case bitcoin will increase in price and then gets more acceptance from the global community
Holding btc for too long may result eventually on the decrease on its supply. Just like fiat, if theres limited supply of btc, circulating btc in the market will become less. When these happen, trading, signature campaign and other jobs that are paid in btc will be affected. It can result to less transactions or even less job opportunities that gives payment in a form of btc.
There is nothing wrong with holding, you cannot force people to do things they perceive as going against what they think it is best for them, if people right now think that holding their coins is the best strategy that they can implement then they are going to do it, besides the traders are also benefited by this strategy since this lowers the available supply and makes the price to go up.
It may sound like a good plan to Hodl on to it but, what the use of Hodling on to it if there's no one buying it. Demand will still dictate what the price of Bitcoin is, hodl I think is just secondary. If there's no demand and people are just Hodling on to it, I guess price will still be the same or maybe it will go down as the usual reaction is Sell when someone placed an order and everyone is just waiting who will make the first move.
I think the answer is pretty simple, if everyone just HODL and nobody trades it, it's dead. The price will become stagnant as the price depends on the market capitalization. And market capitalization is the total sum of funds the cryptocurrency has.
This is a hypothetical situation with minimal chances of happening. At any point in time, someone will definitely sell and/or buy. We preach hodl over selling because we want to operate with the principle of supply and demand.
I think the bitcoin will drastically decrease in value since there will be no demand. But we know this will be impossible though since all millions of users cannot be in the same page at the same time.
Probably, the market valur will not move since there will also no market volume which will determine the price of a crypto. If everyone would hold, the market value will be surely stabilized at some point in the market but surely, it won't happen because it is already in the nature of Bitcoin to have a volatile market value.
Yes, it is impossible to happen since a small bad news happens a lot of people sell their bitcoin easily so we cannot really tell if all will hold. But if that will happen I think the price will rise high.

and if so you are too stupid to follow what people say, not having knowledge and experience is the cause. what you say about holding, it will not be possible. in stock, sell and buy is always valid and happens every day. I think you should use logic when you want to discuss.

If no one sells the price of bitcoins it can not go down. If then there are requests for purchase then the price increases.

If no one sells and only holds that means the price is increasing steady over time, in my oppinion the people who are not trading but only selling based on the news or minor dump are the ones who shouldnt invest in bitcoin, they are giving cheap bitcoin to people who dump the prices and buy of the panic sellers, big players are playing with the market just to scare these panic sellers, if they all hold the manipulators cant do anything since than they give away cheap coins and someone else will buy them if they dump.
We need to buy and sell to have supply and demand. If we hold and do not trade then it will still stand. Because nobody sell, there will no have buyers. . Hold is not the best way in business .
Hodl offer only those who do not particularly know how the market works. the strategy hodl by itself works and can make a profit, but someone always needs to create a supply and demand
Yeah after all not all users hold their coins, bitcoins have millions of users with each purpose of use, there will always be transactions, there are many people who spend, trade and so on. impossible hodl used by all users..
this is the more reason i do buying and selling of bitcoin, the more we hold and stop transacting the more it will affect bitcoin, keeps buying and keep selling make the bitcoin a living legend.
Have you learned the rules of supply and demand? If anyone wants to HOLD really as you say, the supply will be scarce and of course the price will increase, the truth does not prove that, Trading is still very large and occupy a large proportion.
Holding is optional but looking at it from the angel you just said holding bring down the price. I might you are right because when transaction is not going on exchange things will remain stagnant we not be moving but when selling and buying the price will keep pumping up. That observation is a great one. Everything is going back to normal now we have been seeing the market in the past few days ...
it that will happen if people's hodl bitcoin and wait to the moon ithink bitcoin begin to pump again.. look at the price now it happen to pump again because more people buy in cheap at 6k now bitcoi at 7k.
