 Why are you playing both sides of the fence? And with both your alias'? One right after another lol. The "I no speakee English" and the " proper vernacular " versions both saying the same thing...is that your idea of subtle?

To be honest if im going to sell my coins i just lose the chance that bitcoin will increase and make another profit from it grabing the chance of holding bitcoins to our bitcoin wallet is the best opportunity for me since i am small time incomer in bitcoin. I also saved 25% of my profit every time i get it from trading , gamblig and other freelance also.

That's the right thing to do hold your coins for the future and if you sell them now then the profit margin would be not too high so this is not the best time to sell your coins but if you can save them for future and wait for the price to go higher would be the best decision to make at a moment.

I just checked the value now, it's again dumped to 960$ now. We need huge adoption in upcoming days to increase the value of bitcoins. However, at this situation we can hold the bitcoins as much we can and sell it out when it again touched the peak value.

Yeah, there has been a ton of volatility lately. It has been a roller coaster for sure. I start to get a bit worried when I see the price under $1000 now, but I'm sure it will recover once the uncertainty subsides.

the price went up above $1000 yesterday, and in my observation that shows a good buy support and a willing market to buy bitcoin up, the demand is still there and hasn't gone anywhere, and it is not going to either. its just that the panic is still there too and the $1000 price is always going to be a psychological barrier for bitcoin price where people have their sell targets there.
and this only means a bit more time is needed.

No one will prefer to sell their coins at this low price as everyone wants to make huge profits from bitcoin and that is the main purpose of investing money into it and if they sell now then it will take away opportunity from them to make higher profits. Holding is the best choice at a moment.

I'll be honest with you -- i was considering selling a portion of my coins,
expecting a crash during this period of great uncertainty, but now i'm strongly leaning
toward holding all of them.

We may still see a sell off.

But, my thoughts are as follows:

- Populist movement of BU means community is NOT letting Blockstream/Core get away with their agenda... In other words,
not letting them cripple the network with high fees and slow confirmation times, which would kill the utility of Bitcoin
and give the business to alts.  This is VERY good news.  Even with multiple node crash bugs, BU hashrate is rising.  Miners can see the writing
on the wall, they would rather use buggy BU than roll over for Core.

- Big whales already sold off a lot of coins

- Network split likely not to happen.  Core will capitulate and give the community bigger blocks or emergent consensus
because that is what people want -- even luke jr's own straw poll advocated this in the event that hashpower takes
over.  Core will save their ass even if they can't save face and at least try to remain as the "main" repo even if they
have to raise the blocksize.

- Already seeing alternate patches like Core + EC

- $1000 price now seen as support.  Dips below $1000 will be bought.  Also good timing with Chinese controls --
too late to get out now.  Only panic sellers will want to cash out at under $1000.  Big upside reward to hang
in there.

- Everyone knows there will be a huge rally after the tension is settled.  Whales will be buying back their positions.
Smaller investors too.  No one will sell.





I have exchanged 25% of my holding to 2 different altcoins (the #2 and #3). And the longer this blocksize debate continues, the more I will exchange to altcoins.      
    
Furthermore, I have been buying new bitcoin weekly, and now i'll buy new crypto weekly, instead of bitcoin.        
    
I'm not rich or anything, but i'm still talking thousands of dollars worth of crypto assets i'm holding, and I'm not the only one doing this. In fact, I'm pretty late to the party.     
           
I do think though that whichever side ends up winning the battle, BU, Core or another side. As soon as the debate is finished, bitcoin will likely recover a large part of their cryptocurrency share. As long as this debate doesn't take too long too be solved.     

If bitcoin ever stops being cryptocurency #1 it might be over permanently.

Don't ever sell under $1000. Yes I think it's a smart choice to keep your funds and never get lose with this temporary bouncing price. I always beleive, if something down, there's​ always chance to raise soon. And now whoever do panic sell, they will be sorry. Just hold, better not doing anything and just watch the market than do a carelessness.

Most of the users here has suggested it as a buy time rather than selling based on the price drop happening from the all time high. So with hope I too have planned of holding all the coins I've saved. Possibly cryptocurrencies are making big move in financial structure, so holding is the perfect decision.

If you bought your BTC above $1000 then you're so stupid for -not selling and hodling because price right now is $888 on Bitstamp. If you bought arround $300 level then you're very smart...

I also see this happening. Right now there is really big tension happening with bitcoin and this is the cause of altcoins all going up. When the tension settles everybody will move out of altcoins, causing the prices to drop back, and this will then boost the prices of bitcoins into a new all time high. I don't see people moving to BU anyway.

I've moved a fraction of my holdings into alts, and some into fiat when the price was still at $1200. It's such an uncertain time in crypto, but don't get me wrong, I have trust in this system, but in the end it is always better to protect yourself.

If there is a network split, I would highly recommend just hold onto your coins until consensus is clear.  There are too many unknown variables with:  status quo  + best developers vs hashpower + utility.  You really don't know what the big players will do, so you don't have the edge, and you shouldn't get greedy and  bet.  Let it work out, and you'll be fine.

I will probably liquidate 25-50% of my BU coins in case the price is right. I will then use these freshly gained funds to convert them directly to BTC which will help to increase my BTC holdings. I will keep the other 50% of my BU coins just in case it gains the majority of the all round support (which I can't really see happen, but still). But this all is nothing more than speculation. It's easy talking when nothing has happened yet -- people will have to re-calculate the whole situation at the time the HF becomes reality.

I will dump my BU coins after you guys do.

Win tactic; everyone hates BU so 0 confidence, so HUGE price drop in the beginning. Whales are buying BU from the weak hands, means rebounce+consolidation. Then i sell for a much better price than you guys do  Cheesy Thank me later

That's a realistic scenario, but it won't really hurt me as I will keep 50% of my BU coins just in case. I also mentioned that if I am selling, that I will wait till the price is right. In the end, I won't be losing anything since I will continue to support BTC as I have always been doing. BU coins will have no value for me initially. I will take advantage of the situation, that's it.

Couldn't have said it better myself. I'm not selling because bitcoins are way undervalued right now based only on uncertainty. FUD can really screw up the price of an open source worldly currency can't it lol.

Core will get their ass in gear and fix the block size problem or they'll be giving up control. A fork is a shitty option but it had to be threatened so they would do something about it. It's the kick in the ass they need.

Be smart guys. At least be as smart as Roger Ver dude.

Did he sell his coins when btc hit 50$? (I assume he had his 300k btc at that time) Did he sell when it became 200$? Did he when it was 1000$? No, He didn't. We can still go further and further.

Never sell your coins till your dreams become real.

Buy low/Sell highs are for amateurs. Real pros become rich by holding.
I dont know any that become rich by hodling. But i believe in Bitcoin so will hold my cold stash. People that hodled gold could make a lot more profit if they were trading it. People that are hodling stocks in Shell or other oil companies are losing money because they dont trade. Etc etc. But hey bitcoin is a revolution and will grow for many years to come. So hodl will do for the time being. Dont let it go to your head tho.
