Exactly this, not everybody bought in at the top a few months ago. I've already withdrawn my original fiat investment, bought mining hardware, handed out paper wallets to friends and family and I've still got enough coins to put a smile on my face.

It's not a religion, it's just that many of us see and understand the potential that bitcoin has and know that it will continue, regardless of the price on the exchanges and we will continue to support it accordingly.

P.S. Thanks so much for the OP, it has given me an insight into the psychology of a panic seller, I've never quite understood them, but now I see it's probably because they only got in with the prospect of making a quick buck and have no idea about the actual protocol...

I will bookmark this, just in case if things turn ugly. It will be a good testimony about the arrogance of some people on these boards during what might will be called 'the good old days' in the future. If selling without any losses and after thinking about it for days makes me a panic seller, then that's ok. You are entitled to define 'a panic seller' as such.

No, this is what makes you a panic seller...

First of all: I'm no hodler. I cashed out when things got a bit too scary for my taste. Second of all: I feel bad for everyone that has lost money or is on the verge of losing money. You have my sympathy.

Blah, blah, blah..

You call it no religion, yet ironically immediatly start ranting about the 'potential' of Bitcoin. Apparantly you have to be part of the club to see the 'potential' first hand. Many still don't and many probably never will. But I guess that doesn't matter: you've set your mind on this.

Ranting? Really? Please re-read what I wrote, I was not ranting, I was merely stating my opinion. It's clear that you have some sort of bent against religion, but you can't go around comparing everything to it, it just makes you look uninformed.

Read the whitepaper, read some code, try to understand what the protocol is and what Satoshi has solved, you might understand a little better where some of us are coming from... it's not just blind faith, it's called education.
