Everyone in here seems to think that the crash is due to newbies panicking. Reality when you look at the hard data is that it is the HODL'ers who are selling and crashing the market.

Don't believe it? Check out the analysis for yourself:

When HODL'ers say "HODL HODL" they are either lying while they are selling. Or if you are truly HODL'ing then you simply being scammed by the other other HODL'ers who are busy selling to you.....

I am sure not all HODL'ers are thinking the same way. Selling off a percentage of the holding and selling off the entire holing are two different events. While booking a certain percebtage of profit is a normal occurrence, selling off entire holding is not. The analysis doesn't show any such possibility.

The truth is that market is bleeding and people are showing mixed reactions. But a true believer will never sell of their entire holding unless there is an emergency. We need our trust to bitcoin and focus more on spending it like a currency instead of just holding it if we want to see a better future for cryptos.
