As for the members of the forum, there are not too many who have been active for more than 5 years, but as can be seen from some answers, some have kept part of their coins for more than 5 years. Yet here we are talking about a period when Bitcoin was still quite cheap compared to today (the price was measured in a few hundred $), and few believed that a value like today is possible.

I personally have some coins that I earned as a beginner through faucets or through signature campaigns, but unfortunately I did not keep everything I bought during 2014 and 2015 - I consider it a good lesson for the future. I also hope that the time will come when it will not be necessary to convert BTC into fiat in order to spend it in the usual places such as shopping malls, cafes, restaurants.

Thanks for your reply and everyone for their inputs.

Unfortunately, to a certain extend I believe BTC is being manipulated at every bull and bear cycles. Like you mentioned, not many active members with more than 5 years on the forum. Thats just showing most bought BTC at some stage(joined the forum) and likely sold out when it went down and never returned. Those who sold when it was high, probably would still stick around the forum since the likelihood of them getting back in at the low kept them on interested and stuck around on the forum.

Anyway, the ones that has held on more than 5 years, or even 3 years are true believers. Hats off to you guys, shows character more than financial gains. Well Done.
