I am the same as you, I am an investor who buys altcoins at very low prices. I bought an altcoin which I think its price could increase very high in the future. I'm not an investor with a large capital, so I don't think it's appropriate to invest in bitcoin or ethereum. The capital I use is purely from bounties and airdrops, and I also use the money for daily needs.

I am also like you, I am an investor too
My basic is programming and I work in a small IT company, I don't have much time to pay attention to market conditions or others

I once tried to be a trader but ended up being a speculator and panicked during a bear market
I am trying to change my perception to continue investing in Bitcoin and other potential altcoins for the long term and will not sell my crypto assets for necessities because I still have a salary at my offline job

A trader can be a speculator when he trades without using analysis. for busy people like you being a long-term investor is the most appropriate choice, especially if it's investing in large coins such as bitcoin or ethereum. but you have to have a fair amount of patience because bitcoin and ethereum have a bull market every few years.

I'm personally more of a trader and speculator than an investor, to be honest I don't have any more long term investments like BTC and ETH because I've sold them in a bull market this year, and now only trade and hope to make a little profit in a market that is difficult to predict this.

as long as you keep earning from trading then it's better than being a long-term investor...

not everyone is suitable to be an investor, traders certainly don't like to see their assets not turning when the market is bull. After the bull market ends, most traders will definitely buy back at lower prices. being a trader is certainly very good.

"this is real financial education, what they don't teach you in school...so there's three kinds of people in the world when it comes to money, there's an investor, a trader, and a speculator"

- INVESTOR = an investor puts capital to use for long-term profit.
- TRADER = a trader seeks to make short-term profits by buying and selling over and over again.
- SPECULATOR = a speculator just gambles and hopes that other parties will dare to pay higher his/her tokens or coins later.

i'm an investor, not very trading savvy, just buy Bitcoin and some Altcoins for long-term. How about you friend?

Let me say I am both trader and investor in a way that I used to hold for so many years even though I got shitcoins with slow growing community. Who knows, it would wake up from previous ath it reached during 2017 but until now there's no progress happening. What made me glad and positive is that their community was still active several aspects like developments and new endeavors.

I am an investor, but I occasionally act as a trader.
Because I am more optimistic about valuable long-term currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum, I will invest 30% of my salary, and I will also look at some altcoins for short-term or swing. I think I'm still conservative, I don't like taking risks. I like to accumulate less and make more. As long as the profit can sustain my daily life, I don't need a lot of profit.

I am an investor and trader.

I will choose Bitcoin for long-term holding. The entire crypto market needs Bitcoin. Despite its volatility, it is the most supported cryptocurrency in the world. With the strengthening of its demand and consensus, Bitcoin has a lot of room for appreciation in the future, and long-term holding will bring higher benefits.
Usually look for opportunities to buy or sell, and gain profits by buying at low prices and selling at high prices. When I see a decline, I don't want to miss the opportunity to buy more. It's easy to panic when I reach my price target or see the market start to fall, and I will sell some.

At first I didn't have a good knowledge of the market so I lost a lot by going to trade. Regulatory bodies still remain largely the same in a rapidly changing market structure no such change has taken place neither in its tools nor in its course of action the biggest shortcoming of the regulatory agencies is its lack of curiosity the players have adapted themselves to adapt to the changed situation. But now I started investing I have earned a lot of money by investing and have had success.

Along the way, with your willingness to find the right patterns to succeed, trading is not a one time big time blowout.

it's a process where people/ traders needs to understand and make sure to keep learning, when executions comes

you always have a better chance of winning a trade.

In the above mentioned option I am the one who invest money means investor. I used to be a trader in cryptocurrency but when I lose money in leverage trading I'd thought that I should invest money instead of trading because in long term we will have good portfolio if we invest Continuesly.

Being a speculator is like chasing the waves when you get the right waves you will got a good profit but not every tide that you could ride which means being speculator and chasing pump could totaly goes wrong. I did consider myself as an investors instead speculator and trader, Trader put a lot pressure in my mind and there is too much emotions when it goes wrong. I think being investors and have long term goal its completly perfect for me. Being investors means you choose the right coins with potential and hold them for period of time and i think its the best way and im doing really fine doing it.

I switched from being an investor to a trader because I wanted to take advantage of the potential to expand my money, and joining the market craze is one of the simplest methods to do it.

But most of the time, I'm just a simple investor holding my assets; I've been here since 2016 and my portfolio is still doing well, and I'm still waiting for a simple x10 market pump.

To be honest, shifting from an investor to a trader is not easy; you must consider all of the essentials, such as market analysis.

Whether you go from a trader to an investor or from an investor to a trader this is a difficult transition to make and this is because the skills needed for each activity are in many occasions complete opposites from each other, so while an investor needs to be patient and hold their coins in the case the market goes against their prediction a trader needs to react incredibly quickly and get out of his position to avoid mounting losses, and this factor is one of the most important to explain why so many people fail on their transition.

I am a full time investor and I am very happy with that. Sure I do trades time to time in small amounts but that is mostly about having fun, it is not a huge amount and I made a decent bit of a return during the last year as well, bought some coin and it went up (as did everything else) and sold it for some reason but bought some other coin and that went up as well (just like all others) and had stop loss while going down so all my trades made a decent profit but it just moved from 3-4% of my portfolio to 10% of my portfolio with those increases, nothing more which is why I am still not seeing myself as a trader.

All the rest of my money is in investment and I do not plan on using any of that until I absolutely have to, I just want to retire and do whatever I want one day and I need a lot of money for that, and in order to do that I need to make sure I can earn a decent amount each month from my capital as well. So I am not getting out for a long time.

You are right. I believe most crypto traders will fall in these two categories without knowing it and like me also, I naturally like to hodl my crypto assets for a longer period of time but I wouldn't mind taking a trade if the opportunity in the market is right for a quick short term gain but never really focus much on regular day trading.

When I first started I was a trader, but not a good one. I got invested too much in my trades and my stomach couldn't handle it, selling at bad moments. Managing your emotions as a trader every is hard and when you don't make enough returns it's not worth it. So I switched to become an investor a few years ago. Its better to sleep good at night and to not be anxious all the time for some lower profits.

I guess it's the beauty of crypto... you are free to try and practice whatever you want! And there's nothing wrong with trying many things, before finding what suits you. I believe most of us here are investors (99% of us have some coins on holding), most of us regularly trade (short, mid, long), and when we are actively participating in these two, for sure we are speculators, more or less! We all combine different things in crypto, what makes the difference is "how we do it"!

I am a comprehensive investor.
I divided the funds into three parts,
INVESTOR：70% BTC,
TRADER：20% DOT,
SPECULATOR ：10% meme coins.A small amount of capital gains high profits. However, there may be serious losses. High risk and high return.

I prefer investing and trading.

Investing in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies with a long history of development and complete technology, as the use of cryptocurrencies increases and people's consensus increases, the value of cryptocurrencies will rise, and long-term holding will make a lot of profits.
Choose some cryptocurrencies by analyzing market trends, pay attention to price fluctuations, and buy and sell at the right time. Gain benefits through short-term transactions.

Everyone is basically an investor and a trader,
I am an investor and trader, but in fact I prefer speculation. I now hold Bitcoin and Ethereum for a long time. For altcoins, I tend to trade frequently, and I will also pay attention to some new tokens. Although there are risks, some of them have higher profits.

Been a good trader is more profitable than investing a time. There was a period I checked my PNL on my trading portfolio and I was wow how I made 300% within 19 days and the only coin I was scalping then was SXP, thanks to their testnet news that was coming up, it boosted the market volume and many where buying.
It's good to be an investor though, there are some pumps one shouldn't dare to trade, it's better off you hold while your portfolio dances to profits.

I will put out a part of the funds for long-term holding, and also use a part of the funds for contracts or leverage. Long-term holding is because you believe in the market. I still think that long-term holding is the most correct approach, but why should I take some speculation? If I hold the currency for a long time, I will become insensitive to the market. I will start not paying attention to the market, not paying attention to the market, not paying attention to the news, not paying attention to new products. This will make me regress, so I will do a good job of fund allocation, long-term holding can go to some DEFI products for financial management, speculators can exercise their sensitivity to the market, and keep pace with the market.

This is basically what keeps anyone going. I have seen people who do only long term investment and that's good, but they end up basically putting it there and forgetting about it and not even checking up what is going on in crypto world, I could ask them what the price of bitcoin is today and they may not end up knowing it. Is this really bad? Not really, if it works for them then it is a good way to make a profit out of crypto world.

However I like crypto way too much to stop checking it out, so what did I do? Most of my investment is in btc-eth-bnb and for very long term, I am not trading them or selling them, I have 2-3 other smaller coins that I invest long term as well but in very small amounts. Whatever is left after those investments goes straight into risky stuff, defi, trading, leverages (rarely) and everything else, even got myself an NFT once.
