Looking at your stories i think in my view it's not more than you were losing your chance to get better price to sold your crypto assets because back again you were too greedy and thought the price of crypto always be good which is near to impossible and for me your hold is not a gambling because there is a chance to sold your assets but indeed you missed that opportunities and got false predictions and i think there are big difference between gambling and crypto holding that gambling required luck to get the money but for holding the particular coins i think patience is the key to get right opportunities to sold

"Hodling is a form gambling?" I don't think so, but it depends on how you manage your trade, how you hold a coin. If you hold and then greedy, then it can be called gambling, holding also requires TP and SL, only with targets far high from daily trading.

well, but I'm quite impressed with you because you don't feel least bit sorry for your greed. That is exemplary, because we should be, making decisions and accepting all risk.
