Topic: Your Bitcoin Assets - page 3. (Read 3378 times)
Im holding my bitcoins as a long term valuable asset and so i neither bother the news about hard fork,nor get panic due to market situations.Bitcoin price is retaining from its temporary fall and its now around $1050.Gold is considered as a long term investment and bitcoin being Digital gold,i hold it as an investment.
Holding is the best option for me right now since there has been little activity over the past week or so. I am actually planning on holding until we reach $1,500 and I hope it doesn’t take the whole year to get there. Even if the price goes again below four digits, I will still hold and maybe buy if there’s a significant drop in the price. We have all seen in the past how bitcoin has bounced back strongly after many plummets and always end up outperforming other known currencies.
For now I will hold bitcoin until prices rise accordingly my target. My target is to sell when the price of bitcoin to $ 1,400, it may take a long time but I still will follow my target. If I had some money maybe I will also continue to buy and hold, but it will not be often. The most important thing is not to sell because prices are not stable 
Thank-you guys so much for making this thread / poll a success. Keep the votes and your opinions coming in. It's starting to tell a story.
majority of people hold their coins (me included) because bitcoin is most profitable in the long term and it is the easiest thing to do when you are not good at trading or don't have the time or the nerves to wreck!
and those who are sayin "diversify into altcoins" are either trolling or don't know what diversification means or they have fallen for the pump scam of the altcoins.
you always diversify in another good investment (eg gold) not diversify into a worse thing like alts.
Holding, although I'm considering trading some.

Guys i have read some article about the whole fork business. The article stated that when BU reaches 51% (whats very close) that they will only start to mine BU blocks. This to force a hardfork. What will happen to the price? Big crash because fork becomes more and more likely , or increase because less bitcoins are mined? (big blocks are not bitcoins, they are BU coins). Can somebody please help me out with this?
i can't decide which option to vote for 
this is what i do:
- i bought coins 3 years ago which i am still holding
- i have been buying more coins each month or 2 months when i have some more money
- i have also bought even more coins whenever there is a dip because of big FUD and it has happened 3 times that i am well aware of and took advantage of in the past 3 years. i even borrowed money to do so.
- i also spend bitcoin whenever i need something and i want to buy it online, specially if there is a discount or i want to keep my privacy.
- i also do some altcoin trading,it is not diversification since i dump them in less than a week.

When you are holding your coin to get profit by Bitcoin's fluctuation, you also using Bitcoin to buy and trade some altcoins which I like most. Because I also do that, you can't hold Bitcoin forever and you also need to buy something from the internet with some discount.
to get some profit than holding we don't have anything except if the price of Bitcoin
will be suitable for our target. In my opinion trading altcoin it's better than holding Bitcoin
I guess it would be too hard to find true bitcoin lovers like God. Honestly I am not disturbing my current bitcoin holding, even prices will go down to $800 levels, I will keep it in same cold storage. I guess Mr. Namamotto will do the same (I learned this after some frustrating selling buying in volatile markets ). I am not going to listen any speculations nor sure-shot recommendations. Probably I will buy more if I get chances to buy cheaper.
I guess every altcoins will get dumped very soon as there will no backing for them except few new business are not deciding to accept them (still one or two coins get that level of reorganizations), others will face the consequences of dumping/profit booking.
The rise of altcoins would have made the dev of bitcoin ecosystem to find one reasonable solution for bitcoin scalabilty issue. Other than this, I guess there is no in sight problems for bitcoin is existing. Hopefully bitcoin will come out of this hurdle too like what it has done by earlier 2015 after mtcox collapse.

I just created this poll because I wanted to get a feel for what everyone is doing out there. Thanks for voting peeps!
I'll go for diversification.
I have bought some coins that came dirt cheap, sold some when it was $1250+ and i'm actively looking to buy right now once the price point is low enough to my expectations. I am going long term with bitcoin.
But still, you should always never put all your eggs in one basket.
Don't be caught in the hype, and don't be caught in the low either.
buying and hodling and then buying some more to hodl more and whenever there is a big FUD that is going to cause a drop i will go to my guy and borrow some money short term to buy some more bitcoin and in less than a week i give the money back and keep the profit

True. But diversification does limit your risks for losses.

I voted for selling some to diversify in other currencies.
The reasoning behind this is that bitcoin is still quite a risky investment, honestly as much as I love bitcoin i don't want to take the risk of it getting busted altogether as an investment. I'd rather diversify.
I was a bitcoin bagholder, but right now i don't feel the need to baghold because there isn't anything in the short term to drive up the prices anymore.
After the fork, i'll probably buy in the most valuable coin, and baghold that.
With a bit going towards spreading in a variety of other coins although the wasn't a more than one option choice there.

I am a holder type of person. It's what I have been doing from the very beginning, and thus far it has proven to be the most profitable practice for me. However, I am occasionally doing some 'slow' trading if the market is moving often enough within a certain period of time. It will allow me to gain some extra profits alongside me just holding my coins. I never limit myself to just one thing while I can do more at the same time.
Right now I am buying and holding more as I see the prices are really low right now that it is beneficial to me as my money will be able to buy more now than if it is when the price is really high. I still have high hopes that the prices of bitcoins will reach $2,000 by the end of the year, if not should hit $1,500 levels.

Buying and holding . Buying at low and hold it for a long time.
I know only sell my bitcoin when needed. If im on trading i will definitely sell my bitcoins everyday juat to buy altcoins.
it is the nature of a trader. we certainly should be able to estimate the right time in the selling, buying and holding bitcoin. I know only sell my bitcoin when needed. If im on trading i will definitely sell my bitcoins everyday juat to buy altcoins.
because the purpose of all this is to gain an advantage. many things we do in order to multiply the bitcoin that we have today.

Sounds like you're a buyer.
I buy and hold, and sell and rebuy again since I'm a day trader always watching as the price go up or down. My btc multiplies this way. If the price go up, I sell at some point where I think is the peak. When dump occurs. I buy when I think the price is the lowest possible and will hold after then I will repeat the same process. That's how I always use my bitcoin assets so I didn't vote since I do it all.
I buy and hold, especial now. Price does up and down all the time but the good thing is that there is not big differences between the prices. If the price keeps going up and you don't have much money to buy, it's not good. It would be the best, price does down to $600, for me :p I want to invest to btc but I can't as much as I want.
