For YOU maybe, and that's OK. But for professional investors/traders who bought during the bearish phases during 2022 and 2023, they're probably taking profit NOW, no? OR those winning day-traders who bought the DIPs during April.
We plebs merely have to accept that for every seller there's a buyer, and for every buyer there's a seller. There are those who take profit, and there are those who buy from those who take profit.
Simple.
I believe that there are investors who already exited all bitcoin accumulated during last bear market, some others partially existed like DCA for their exits along a bull run while the others are still holding all of their bitcoin and wait for an absolute ATH to exit and the
minority lf investors similar to Strategy are planning to hold their bitcoin not only throughout this cycle but also future market cycles.The actual truth is that not everyone has the patience and will power to hold, people are just looking for quick way to make money, and that is the primary reason they lose money trading the market.
Those people that bought Bitcoin with the intention of selling at the end of a circle are not Investors, they are traders that are selling for minimal gains. A true Bitcoin investor is someone that is willing to hold just as you describe in the bold words in your statement, he or she will hold for like three circles or more, that's a Bitcoin investor not someone that buys with the intention of selling after every four years hoping to make a huge return, with such an approach he can never achieve anything tangible because overtime it has been proven that holders are way more successful and profitable than traders that will be dancing around the market in the same period of time thinking that he is making it from the market why he is making nothing when compared to someone that holds for the same stipulated timeframe like ten years or more.
