A person who comes to bitcoin and who is not planning to hold bitcoin for at least 4-10 years or longer is called a trader - not an investor. There is a difference.
Sure some traders don't know that they are traders. Some traders call themselves investors, even though they are not investors.
I totally agree with you, people who plan to hold for less than 4 years are not investors, they basically want to multiply their invested money in short term, they are basically trading for short term profit. If planning a long-term holding, the investor must hold continuously for at least the next two cycles. long-term holding is required to get desired results from Bitcoin investment, otherwise traders often get disappointing results.
It is impossible to predict the movement of Bitcoin, which is why traders who want to profit by short-term buying and selling, often face losses. But on the other hand a long term holder after holding for a certain period (10 years), he gets better results than he expected.
Therefore, long-term holding should be done without worrying about the volatility of the market. Those who have been long-term holders of Bitcoin since its inception have already seen tremendous success. In the same way, those who will hold for the next 10 years from the present moment will also be successful beyond their expectations.
