This year 2017 has not been favourable to those that buy bitcoin in 2017, ended and are still holding. Bitcoin is in a state that we have not expect as many investors and speculators were saying bitcoin will get to over $50,000 this year. We should still holding as selling below the amount we buy is selling out of pain and frustration.
Well unfortunately, those people have limited choices. By this time, those that probably got in because of hype had already sold their btcs and those remaining are set for the long haul. Disappointing of course, but you have to look way ahead if you don't want to lose.
I am also a holder i bought many bitcoins in 2017 thought it gives me more profit but this year really disappoint me but i still hold my coins and did not panic sell. I won't sell them even the price fall more or below 6,000.
