You are absolutely right there is always time to sell. And I don’t think that we can keep holding for a lifetime, The primary goal of someone that is investing in bitcoin should be accumulating for as long as 4-10 years then at that point you have achieved your goals and you can try selling little by little so you don’t have to sell all your investments. At this point a newbie should be more interested in accumulating and getting to over accumulating.
Beginners who want to realize this early are very lucky beginners and also very good because in the early stages of investment, anyone must be more diligent in making accumulations with Bitcoin which they must buy more often with the income they already have from their current job. As for selling, I think it is a simple thing that can be done by anyone as long as they have seen more benefits from what they have invested so far, namely Bitcoin. So there is no need to bother to understand how to invest in Bitcoin as long as we ourselves have the desire to do it in the long term with certain targets from each individual.

It is foolish to sell your entire investment after the investment period ends. Because you have been investing for a long time and you have kept your holdings until your time limit ends. If you sell your holdings after that, then you will have to start investing again and you will have to wait until your time limit ends to sell your holdings. But if you do not sell your entire holdings, you can sell some amount of holdings during your need period which will be able to meet your needs. If you can keep your holdings in this way, then it will be good for you.
Someone who wants to sell Bitcoin after keeping it for years, I think it is done on the basis of a fairly large profit because if not for that, I am sure that someone will not sell all their Bitcoin assets except to cover the sudden needs that they are experiencing at that time. I actually also quite agree with what you said , but maybe for some people who have found more benefits, they will definitely not be able to resist the temptation to sell everything for that. So things like that still depend on the wishes of each individual when they want to sell their own ownership.
It is not advisable and it's not a good bitcoin portfolio management for you to sell all your bitcoin portfolio as once because you have more benefits/profits. This is like you selling your establishment because it has worth a lot in your eyes when the establishment is still generating good profits for you. Bitcoin investment is more than an establishment because of its compounding value overtime. After selling all your bitcoin that you took a very long time with sacrifice to build, what is next. Holding fiats that will depreciates in value or investing into something else?


That's a very good point there, and of course selling our bitcoin at once seems to be a wrong method in my opinion. However, I think the best method of selling our holdings probably  when we must have reach the status of overaccumulation is by selling some amount which you know is okay for you as an investor, but the amount is not supposed to be more than 30% or in such a way that you won't find it difficult in trying to build back your portfolio that's in my opinion, Instead of selling all our holdings at once. I could imagine how long it will take for an investor to build back his portfolio to it's normal standard, and most of them can decide to give up after they must have Considered the time/ years which they're going to spend in building back the portfolio, because that strong determination which they had when they were still new into bitcoin investment is no longer there.

It is true that selling your Bitcoin holding at once is a very wrong approach and again before you will even decide to start selling your your Accumulated Bitcoin you must make sure you have accumulated enough you can't just start accumulating newly and quickly start selling is wrong.
When it comes to the method that should be used when selling your Bitcoin according to JayJuanGee he said that selling 10% for every time that the BTC price doubles is a very conservative approach and I agree with that and I think using this approach will help you maintain your Bitcoin investment and prevent it from not running dry, some set of people use some approach that makes them run dry there Bitcoin investment which is very wrong when you have accumulated enough you need to use a method of selling that will help you maintain your investment and selling 10% for every time that the BTC price doubles is perfect.
