It seems every time I find something that looks promising, I'm just a sucker waiting to give someone else a payout. I have been following advice a gentleman offered to "hodl" my bitcoin, from $984 all the way down to now $436. I've just been fooling myself, telling myself "Don't worry hon, it will go back up! It always has!" I've been spending my time reading the forums and hoping. My friends called me crazy when I told them it's a sure thing. The shame is just as bad as the lost money. So I quit. You guys win. Coins sold. 
Bitcoin is shooting up to 4-5K USD by the end of the year. You will regret your decision, Bitcoin is such a revolution it can't fail. Save yourself from panic buys and panic/desperate sells. In my case, it took almost 2 years, it's tough yes, but you need to be aware what kind of financial revolution is this. Completely distruptive technology that can't fail.
