Some people buy Bitcoin and they hold for a long time so that when the price push up, they will sell and rejoice in profit, while some people are trading Bitcoin, they are buying and selling almost instantly to get profit on a short time. I really want to know whom you guys refer to as investors, is it a person that buys and keeps buying through out the bear season with his intention to sell in bull market season OR you refer investors as the person that trade Bitcoin repeatedly for short time profit? Can both of them be seen investors and for what reason?
When they buy bitcoin for long term and then when they sell it, aren't they trading and considered traders? They are selling (that is trading) their bitcoin for fiat. They are holding the coins with the intention of trading it. So yes, they are also traders, but just holding it for longer terms. Once they sell, they will buy again when the price drops. And yes, when you are trading, you are investing. Just look at the definition of investing. It means putting down money with the hope of generating profit. So yes, you are investing money when trading with the hope of gaining some money and hence traders are also investors.
