I just don't spend Bitcoins now, when the price is above $1,000 and can go higher and higher. Kinda psychological STOP inside my head. Earlier though I traveled with Bitcoin (it was around $300 then, bad times), and it was ok.
What we are seeing now is a great progress and when the price is rising like this, it is always not good to sell and the best option is to hold until we see a bigger value for better income. Think that way always and never get tempted to sell, let's be matured enough in this kind of situation if we want to maximize our income. Come March 11 and there will be a great result of the ETF application for approval, you will see another milestone of success.
If everyone will start holding their coins without spending them then it will make bitcoin a weaker currency and it will not contribute to stronger bitcoin economy as the rotation of coins is mandatory to take its price to higher level so its best to sell them when price goes higher and buy it back if you see major price drop.
