Pretty sure most people on Bitcointalk got their coins almost free with CPU GPU mining back in 2009-2010.

Most likely the retail people that are buying Bitcoin now only buy like $100 worth to play around with it. Most of the surge in price was due to investment firms which bought 8 figures worth.

This is not totally right because I know some people here from this forum and they sold all their coins in 2016 and 2017 because they thought prices are amazing. But they missed much greater profits by selling those coins.

I think no one holds there coins that much. Once you learn how to trade, you always want to take a profit to secure your investment specially if you are in need of it. In time, we are learning how to trade that why I think hodling to much of it for a long time are much proffered for some collector of coins form auctions.
