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?

Lol. didn't expect that it's now complicated to be called an investor.

As long as you've invested, long-term or short-term, you're an investor, the idea of an investments is to secure something valuable in the future, to have a good profit from it and both long-term and short-term gives you that. Long-term are those who believed into the idea, they're the reason why it keeps going and the reason why it has a good foundation until now because they hodl for long term and aiming for a good value. Short term investors are those who take advantage of market's behavior and let me tell you this, some of the short-term investors are also long-term investors, they have stocks of blue chips that aren't used for short trading.

Well traders can be also called as investors to, the difference is the intention and the length since most of the traders accumulate some crypto for short term purposes only. That's the reason why other people also call them as a gambler because they also adapt the same risk but there's really huge difference on the way how people execute each activities.

But people really tag those long term minded people as investor because we know this is really the best option to do especially if the asset is well known to bring something good to people who have good patience and proven to bring good profits base on its historical movement.

But for sure there well be good transition that going to happen and those traders would choose to HODL Bitcoin and forget about trading it especially if they encounter huge disaster on their trades and lost lots of money with it.
