Please check your quoting. It's difficult to see which and which is your personal thought.
About holding though, I believe we all aware about why it is been advised to hold
Trading is a zigzag way of falling deeper into losses without knowing.
HODL helps circumvent this. In my country land is a necessity
It's something everybody wants /need to have to be branded successful.
Take owning a Bitcoin as a necessity
A need rather than a want. It would help you hold for a very long time.
Mind you everybody have their own plans based on various circumstances so there's no definite time for how long one should hold
It's dictated by our personal plan but would you sell all your land when you know you would later need it?
Don't forget unlike Bitcoin Fiat is a depreciating asset
A year or two ago, #150 could buy a bag of water (20pcs) now it could barely afford 5.
Sometimes I go to old thread especially one about Pizza and saw that Theymos sold some amount of Bitcoins for couple of dollars
Imagine then he held
This would be the same thing people years to come would say when they join the forum.
They would see people selling their Bitcoin for $70K, $100K and be like imagine this people held.
Don't go
all in in any investment like has been mentioned countless times
Invest what you can afford to loss
Take it like you paying a bill for a service you enjoying.
Currently ain't really focused on Bitcoins price nor have I checked how much have accumulated
I like good surprises, I want to check one day and be like "How did I get this rich "Lol.
I know my average price but don't to check how many unit I have.
Nobody is saying don't collect profit but make sure the reason is worth it.
I do trade once in a while to get the adrenaline running but a fact is I detest it
A fancy way to make losses or minute gains.
A living proof that trading is not the best in a long run be an investor rather than a Trader.
Personal opinion. Thanks for reading
I guess
