Anyone else a 100% HODLER out here?

I can't really place my fingers about what or who a 100% holder is in your view but not definitely about who doesn't touch a single Satoshi of his hodling. Take some profit from my many years of hodling doesn't make me a no hodler.

Like there's no 100% hodler. Because you haven't sold a part or whole of your hodling today doesn't mean you won't at some point in the future make a sell. We all have to sell at different periods eventually, right?

I’m skeptical if there’s user out here that doesn’t spend even a single satoshi on their holdings despite the current price which is the ATH.

However if you are interested to discuss with Bitcoin OG that possibly steel balls holder like you then go to this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wall-observer-btcusd-bitcoin-price-movement-tracking-discussion-178336

Talking about this all depends on individual convictions and capabilities. Many who have kept the grind and got to this point may be much willing to sell. With more investors trooping into the crypto world and bitcoin buying, I don't see it going down anytime soon. Hence, hold for as long as you live. Bitcoin is a generational wealth to those who understand and trust the process.

Then I am sure that now your position in relation to selling is under consideration) Because last night we all saw Bitcoin at 103,000 and apparently this is not the limit. As for me, I have almost no Bitcoins, because I did not believe in growth and wanted to buy at 44,000. But unfortunately the price at one time stopped at 50,000 and then grew up and only up. No big deal, I will find a way to make money. And I congratulate everyone who still keeps their entire portfolio in Bitcoin)

I mean it was obvious that it would grow, and I knew that it would grow, and I still do not have a lot of bitcoins neither, I do not have much, I have some because I knew it would go up so I bought as much as I could, but I still couldn't get much.

Not everyone has a lot of money to invest, some of us are poor and I am one of those people and I do not have much to invest, I do not make a lot, I live in a nation where making a thousand dollars a month means you are living a decent life, it's harder nowadays, what I used to could live with a thousands dollars, is now costs two thousand dollars due to inflation, but still a thousand isn't terrible, and I can barely save like fifty bucks a month, so of course I didn't have much money, and that is the most important part of approaching bitcoin world, do not look at how much you have, as long as you are growing then you are on the right path and should focus on what to do and how to handle it as well.

I’m definitely a HODLER, but not one of those with a whole Bitcoin! 😄 Honestly, I can’t even bring myself to sell a fraction of what I have because every time I think about it, I say to myself, “Maybe with the next halving it’ll double!” Who knows? Maybe in the future I’ll use it to buy something cool, like a ticket to the moon hahahah

I still haven't sell any of my coins, but I think I will start to sell some when the price cross $100K. I realized it's way more profitable to sell at the peak and then accumulate during bear season instead of 100% hold.

If you think you can double your money in the next halving simply by holding, you can actually make 3-5x if you sell at ATH, buy at the bottom and hold until the next bull run.

It is true that Bitcoin has broken all past records and on March 14 this year gave us its highest ($73,750) ATH. However, since then Bitcoin has been below 70,000, which has led many to comment that another Bitcoin bull season may not come. But the rate at which Bitcoin has been gaining momentum since the US elections and the current record of 103,000, we are seeing. I think if we had continued the investment strategy in phases, we would have enjoyed a big return today.

Bitcoin price has increased in the last two months, centered around the American elections. Bitcoin ETFs have seen over $4 million inflows into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds since last October. When it comes to Bitcoin investing, we must develop a mindset and build our portfolio through investing as usual.

I have NEVER sold or used even the tiniest amount of Bitcoin though I have accumulated more and more over the years. Almost seems like its all in a black whole somewhere! I just don't feel like selling any it because I feel like come next halving, it will be worth 2 times more! At this point, it almost seems like all of it will just go to my next generation.

Anyone else a 100% HODLER out here?

I first bought Bitcoin in 2017 and sold same year when I realized the market has topped out, bought again 2019 and 2020 and sold some in 2021, then I started recalculating once again in 2022-2023. If your intention is never to sell then that's up to you and also the best way that those who has profited from long term Bitcoin investment has used and benefited. It's best to which investment strategy best suits you and apply it

I feel like it's important to add how long you've been holding. If you're holding since you made this account (2020) it's not such a big deal. I know people who held since the last bull market without selling anything.
It's also important how long it's been for OP since his account is from 2013. If he managed to hold for more than over 10 years without selling a sat, he's got some real diamond hands. Saylor is nothing compared to OP, because when OP was holding Saylor didn't even see the value in bitcoin, like most of us here.

I've been holding since 2015, but every time we went to a new ATH I sold some BTC. Usually less than 1% of what I had, but I wouldn't be able to hold for so long without taking some profit.

Holding for that long is good as I’m sure there are people still holding to their bitcoin after witnessing more than one halving event and bitcoin making a all new high. Holding for that long is the best form of holding but since humans are always looking for the fastest way to make money and also having a lot of pending issues to be fixed, they can’t hold for that long even though they have complete trust that the market price of bitcoin will continue to rise. They rather sell after bitcoin attain a new all time high and then wait back for the bear season to come again to accumulate more against the next bull run, this has been the case of most holders and have been a success for them throughout their years of holding bitcoin.

If all the hodlers have the same mindset on you, everyone will make it big in the years to come. Unfortunately, we all have different stance when it comes to bitcoin. I still prefer to buy and hold, and sell when bull run comes. That’s my way of benefiting all the profits I deserved. And just buy back again when there is good opportunity to buy.

But honestly, yours is also a very ideal one. But only few of us here have managed to do that. Majority are still buying and selling at the bull run, that’s why the profits are not that huge and well satisfying.

I still hold bitcoin from day one of investing - but I have sold some of my earnings in bitcoin that I accumulated from signature campaign payments. Of course holding bitcoin for the long term allows the holder to get higher returns - but you also need to consider the timing of the exit because in the market you will definitely find two cycles that will be in your favor and will make your estimated assets decrease.

If you are in a bullish cycle after the halving - you may need to consider timing an exit at a particular price target. You can reinvest in the future, especially when the price starts to correct. So rest assured that these cycles will exist - I mean bullish and bearish and you have to be very wise in exploiting this momentum if you want to maximize returns.

I'll admit, I do sell my bitcoin every now and then. Not a ton or anything, but yeah, I cash some out from time to time. I totally get the appeal of HODLing long-term though. Bitcoin's got major growth potential as an investment and at heart I'm a holder no doubt about that. But I also like the idea of it being used as actual money that people can spend. So I think it's good to actually use it for payments and support businesses taking bitcoin every once in awhile. Keeps the economy going, right?

I'm surprised you never sold your Bitcoin. How long have you kept your Bitcoin? If you have kept your Bitcoin since 2011 or 2012, you are among the legendary Bitcoin holders. I rarely saw a comment from forum members that they never sold any of their Bitcoin assets.

You must understand with bearish and bullish season. Are you not interested to take the advantage from the season change? I mean you buy in the bearish season and sell in the bullish season. I believe you know that Bitcoin price won't always increasing. They have a red period when it is in bearish season.

Bitcoin was created as a currency but due to its great potential to increase exponentially in price overtime have made a lot of people turned from using bitcoin as a currency, rather they prefer to see it more as an investment. This is why you see people preaching hodli and don't sell because bitcoin is still in its transition stage, and will still increase in price overtime. Big investor and government have joined the hodli train because everyone is after profits.

Becoming an Asset is also what happened to gold as well, gold used as a currency in history, because we had gold coins (and silver too) and people would use gold coins to buy and sell stuff, it was also printed with images of kings and queens etc by whatever nation you were in, and that was the "money" of that day. However, with more time passed, we have seen those golds becoming too much for the rich people, sure some of them had places to put it securely, but not everyone did.

So with time "banks" of those days appeared, you would deposit all your gold to a safe place, and they would give you a piece of paper in return, and that piece of paper became the start of what we know as banknotes now, people would use that. Same thing that happened to gold where it became asset after being currency at first, happened to bitcoin as well, we are now seeing it change a lot and seeing it become something quite big because it's an asset that is making people some money.

I know many people are still hodling their BTC, waiting for the $100k to show up in the market before they can be satisfy to move to the market to sell their BTC because that is their target in this season, base on the current price of BTC, I think it will surely going to happen before this year run out because the price is very close to that price. I have sold my BTC few months ago which am hoping for another bear market to come before i can buy and hodl BTC for the price to pump above $100k before I can sell, which I know it will come to reality in 4 or 5 years time because the price of BTC use to break history every 4 years to touch the highest price.

If I have that opportunity to hodl BTC again, I will not going to rush to sell the BTC when the price just newly started pumping because that is a sign that it will going to pump long for hodlers to accumulate profit from BTC.

I think there will be no further deep decline in Bitcoin in the next few months, in fact the price will soar even higher, just look at what is happening now where the price of Bitcoin has not experienced a deep correction, even after an increase, the correction that occurs is only a small part of the increase that occurs, so this is indeed entering the Bull period in my opinion where there will be many possibilities for price spikes to occur.
And for those who have sold some of their Bitcoins, maybe there's nothing wrong with it because of course there are already benefits, but if you want to enter at the current price, there's nothing wrong with it, it's still a long time and it's very likely that the price of Bitcoin will be higher than $100k, I'm sure that will happen.

We are already in bull season and even about to enter altcoin season. There will still be corrections during bull season but they are just small corrections to build momentum, rarely a big correction unless suddenly a black swan appears. So waiting for a big correction to buy is not a wise idea during the bull season.

There is nothing wrong with someone selling their bitcoins a few months ago if they had no other choice or because they had reached their goal. But if they think they can understand the market well, they want to sell at a high price and wait for a low price to buy then it is a big mistake because bitcoin is unpredictable.

Buying now is not a bad idea but it is quite risky if he wants to invest in short term. So the decision will be up to him, giving investment advice at this point is not advisable.

I am pretty surprised, but I guess there are actually some people who invested in Bitcoin for years and never sold any of their Bitcoin. For me, I still kinda need to sell my Bitcoin at least once a year, I need to cashout some of my Bitcoin to treat myself for vacation or new stuff, just so I can be motivated that my investment actually has earn me something that's I can enjoy, lol, I think my habit is considered bad by some investors, but it is what it is.

Congratulation if you never sold your Bitcoin and keep that for years. It is not easy to keep Bitcoin without sell it even for small portion of Bitcoin. But that will not be a problem if you have a source of income that can give you a chance to earn money. You can fills you daily needs using that earn money while you can invest some money to in Bitcoin and keep it until now. I am a holder but I also sell my Bitcoin if I have an urgent things that needs money. My income can not always fills my daily needs to I have to sell my Bitcoin for some portion so I can fills the needs. I also keep my rest of Bitcoin for my children.

Oh , bro I feel disappointed for you because you should not sell Bitcoin if you have but that is your personal problem and you have to sell the Bitcoin. Now , BTC price is at the peak level and Donald trump have a huge pump in the market and investors are impressed got huge profit in the market. Before 18 months BTC was at low price and that was best time to buy Bitcoin because people were in fear and anyone can hold in that situation if he has a amount which will be in the side and it has no impact on his financial statement. He could get huge amount of profit millions of people got best profit but now that is not good time to but Bitcoin because bubble is being made in the market and we will see when price will be low .

Definitely holding 100%, what’s more important is never loss your profit alongside holding for long term. It’s quite amazing holding for long and I admire the courage despite the fact no one knows the outcome, it’s said bitcoin can be considered as an inheritance maybe op is working towards the direction. Concerning next halving this is actually the best time buying If considering the next halving either we might not see this price again.
