I found lot of traders who bought a special coin from many exchange site. Then few months they go for sleep and wake up after 5 years. So now what about your trade?
I think one who keeps the coins for 5 years is not a traders he/she must be called a holder. Either it is cryptocurrency or a stock It is always mandatory to keep monitoring about current market fundamentals.
Obviously, you can't call him a trader. Because a traders usually goes to exchange monitor the price shifts and gambles.
But you have to understand that not all investors can be traders. Most of them simply buy huge amounts of coins and then let it sit on their wallet for long time. It's doesn't look good for others though, but it's a proven method already.
