Who knows? As of this writing, with all the cryptocurrencies that was listed in coinmarketcap.com, Bitcoin was the only that has loses in the last 24h. All the top altcoins, were amongst the gainers. Anyway, for long term holders, this kind of information was very much irrelevant. I share the enthusiasm and commitment of those that patiently awaits for the maturity of their long time goal with bitcoin. However, if and only if bitcoins value escalate to $8k soon, i actually believe that many long term holders will have a change of heart.
