Holding your Bitcoin is just a nice way to save your money if you want to make money you have to sell it on the right moment and it is hard to make the right choice.
And patience is also important because it will be bad if you are selling it too early when you cant get profit of it.
Patience is important, but the bad thing is that you won't know if the price will rise or fall later on.
Holding is just a safe way to earn some money, but there must a time for you that you have to hold it if you want to earn some money with it and that is risky of course.
But without risks you cant earn money with it and waiting will be now the best option because it is now rising and that is perfect.
