This part is true... it can take several years to start to get into profits, yet even the mere fact that you are in profits would not even necessarily start to mean that you need to sell any coins. .

My point exactly. Most short term investors have a fixed investment duration, and then they sell off their coins, which as you've stated isn't the best. And as it takes several years to start making PROFITS, they mostly do not take heed to that, and their investment duration falls below the 'several' years that they need to get into profits. Bitcoin being as unpredictable as it is, can drop or whatever other reason, they find themselves incurring significant losses.

I don't think short term investments are true investors. they can still be considered traders. because they still want to profit from significant price movements in a short time.
different from real investors who already understand that investment has a longer term. and will continue to keep its assets forever. and the profit is from keeping the asset, not from selling coins.

Still on track with my point. Traders. Let's call them that. So in essence, traders don't get to relish the true essence of profits from Bitcoin. To get that, like we all agree, and is factual, is to hold. Which they're not doing.
