HODL

meandjarvis

It is exactly my mindset change. Started to DCA in mid 2024, I remember back then the price was about $58k, I was - 1. checking the price constantly. 2. selling at $67k. 3. mood went down when the price drops to $53k. Then I started to get my mind under control and kept DCAing. Fast forward to today, almost 2 years later - 1. I have a decent bitcoin portfolio, definitely invested more than if it was just a few bets on bitcoin. 2. even with the weak bitcoin performance in the past few months (many even think it's bear market now), am still well above the water, indicating the power of DCA and HODL. 3. During the process, I've learned how to ignore FUD and all the noise. I've been listening to some imo good sources that help me keep faith in BTC and my DCA strategy. And recently, I noticed that I even started to ignore these positive sources too... it's like am in monk mode, all the up and downs, good and bad, am watching, observing, experiencing, with calmness. 4. Maybe I will sell a little at some point but am sure I will DCA more. My portfolio consists of BTC, gold, S&P 500 and cash, and I consider this portfolio to be my retirement fund and even pass to my kid so I am in absolutely no rush. BTW, recently I've been thinking about buying an ETF that consists of top tier non-US equities. Any recommendation?

He does have a point how it wasn't as easy to buy back then. Coinbase or an equivalent makes it super easy but trying to buy it on a less user-friendly exchange can be daunting for anyone not familiar. That combined with what was at the time a still very unknown quantity made a lot of people pass on the opportunity. I do wonder how loaded Nick Van Exel is now or if he HODL'd or cashed out too early.

ryansalad

Who would part with their Bitcoin to buy anything? It's HODL until the end!

Smile_And_Dance

Not really. It’s going to 1M. HODL

Stinky_bukaka

At this point I am happy every time we dip and or are in a bear market, best times to buy. HODL.

sygnifax

Everyone looking for a crypto soothsayer when the answer is within their heart. Do you have the strength and will to HODL?

Agreeable-Bluejay740

Great move just keep DCA the dips and HODL I did something similar with my tax but bought 0.01% I will DCA weekly long term and see what happens everything comes with risk I also own a fair amount of gold & silver…..

one_peace_fan

I mean, I personally wouldn't hold longer than 3-4 years. I feel like bitcoin is something you have to actively trade. Some would say diamond hands and HODL is the way to go, though. I sell after it hits a new all time high after the halvening, then I buy back in during crypto winter and build up enough to sell again.

Dajbman22

Depends on the person. I bought 0.1 when BTC was at $500 and check in every 3-4 months just to see how my little side bet is doing - little bit of fomo not cashing out at 110k but I'll HODL probably forever just to see what happens. Got in so early though that even buying at this "dip" feels like way too much money for me.

energetic_one

Your analysis is too general. It really depends on when someone got into Bitcoin whether they make life changing money or not. If someone got in in 2013 or 2014, then they made life-changing money, it doesn't really matter if Bitcoin is at 65, 67 ,90 or a 100 and something. What matters is the leverage. It's going to be more difficult for someone getting in now when (it's what 67 or so) make life-changing money over a short period of time. And it's easier to HODL when they're when someone has leverage and they're already staying in profit through the dips. So for these people, it's life changing money. Bitcoin is not the stock market and I see too many thinking in those stock terms. Plus the phrase "Bitcoin fixes money" isn't talking about life changing profit, I don't think you understand it literally means Bitcoin FIXES money. Fiat is loaded with shortfalls and problems. Bitcoin's design fixes that. Investors just need strong stomachs and not sell no matter what the price is.

1) Getting “a whole bitcoin” is simply psychological. It’s like back in the day when people would say “what would you do if you got a million dollars” it’s an arbitrary number. And I can assure you regardless if you have 1.00, 2.00 or 12, you’ll want more. 2) If you can get 0% or near 0% that’s far more attractive. Adding interest to buy “a whole bitcoin” is silly. Sure it could work out, but on one side of the paper you have this “whole bitcoin” and on the other side you’re making payments, with interest. Not an ideal situation. 3.) If you find yourself in a jam and need to tap into the funds, (bitcoin) now you have a taxable event (If you in fact have a profit) but depending on when the unexpected strikes, you now have a taxable event and still are making payments to satisfy the loan - a shitty place to be. 4.) Why not take a loan for (insert any of the 12,000 stocks out there) ? Simple answer is something like, “I don’t have a crystal ball” or “my conviction isn’t as high on a stock or stock(s) but it is on bitcoin” —the only answer -nobody has a crystal ball = risk, add in the loan = more risk. 5.) Consider selling things instead. Maybe it’s jewelry, maybe it’s downgrading a car or car(s) and using those funds to buy bitcoin or skipping a vacation or two. Personally, I’d rather get rid of a $28,000 Mercedes and buy a $13,000 Camry and buy $15,000 of Bitcoin and not have a loan of any kind. 6.) Without question, for every 1 insane story where someone used leverage and hit a grand slam, there are 1,000 stories of someone getting totally fucked from leverage. Buy what you can afford without leverage and HODL. Best of luck!

Dottie__Hinkle

Would you take the $300 to a casino? If so, HODL this for years and perhaps you can thank him then if it goes 🚀 This $300 will be a good teacher. And YES! The up and down is absolutely normal Don’t stress it If a bee farts, the price will move swiftly No rhyme no reason so just hold for as long as you can afford to.

Successful_Pea2629

Congratulations! That’s pretty bad ass and I think you will have your 100k shortly if you HODL

hoopstar80

HODL OP no matter what. Don’t ever panic sell it. You made a long term decision (I hope)

Mundane-Banana2122

HODL at any cost just doesn't make sense. Could make so much more money taking profit then re accumulating when it inevitably drops like this. People just wear HODL as a badge of honor to disguise the lack of financial nous.

WordsHappenedHere

This is going to $45k at least. Probably lower. Not adding or doing any kind of DCA until it forms some kind of a base at least. Chart is just nasty. It cannot find a bottom. When it loses 60k the selling will intensify. Draw downs from prior ATH have at least been decelerating. So I’m guessing it pulls back a full 65-70%. Near $40k. Seems to just be the primary source of liquidity for everyone at the same time. Sad to see with the world as it is. This HODL at any cost mentality is losing alot of people alot of money.

BTCWallahFXEmpire

they are totally underwater though if they bought in Q4 2025.. not necessarily buying the dip.. just hope they HODL through the current storm.

Jealous-Reindeer-610

Shut up & take my money! - its a Bitty discount season! - HODL fo life

I got really lucky, literally dumb luck.. I DID make $ fast, less than 6mo and I made about 55% profit on my total btc investment, again I WAS LUCKY. OP is right this is not a get rich quick scheme/situation unless you have inside knowledge ( 😂 ) or you happen to get very lucky like I did. Keep stacking and stop trying to time the market lol, just DCA and HODL your stack!

AInception

It really has nothing to do with POW. POW is great especially when it serves its intended purpose: home mining as a way to distribute coins and avoid centralized middlemen in totality. I do feel it's the inevitable outcome, but selfishly I'd like to delay that as long as possible since it will only serve to invite extreme and overreaching regulation (like a ban). It would irreparably harm the entire industry unless it can somehow achieve 'escape velocity' by then. The problem is Bitcoin's issuance schedule and fixed supply that runs out after 20-odd years, paired with 1MB blocks that prevent transaction fees from replacing its temporary issuance-based miner subsidy. Satoshi wanted Bitcoin's blocksize to grow following Moore's law. Then each time the subsidy was halved, transaction throughput would roughly double and miner revenues would eventually become 100% fee-based. The 1MB blocksize was only meant to be put in place temporarily. But Satoshi disappeared. Back when the price could rally 1000% at a time people felt spending BTC was a regrettable decision. The new mantra became HODL! People became convinced using it as any kind of currency would somehow harm its asset value, and its entire purpose should be a "store of value" instead sort of like a digital rock akin to gold. No sell pressure, just buy pressure, price up-only forever. Right? The same time that was happening big companies were helping convince people by marketing this new narrative while at the same time selling centralized off-chain scaling solutions to meet transactional demand. Miners were sold the idea as, they will earn more revenue with 1MB blocks because the higher congestion becomes the higher the fees are. At Bitcoin's peak the fee per transaction surpassed $100, and users were all being told to go off-chain if they wanted to actually "use" it for anything. Miners were more than happy to maintain the temporary blocksize indefinitely. Now 99% of the temporary miner subsidy is gone. Multi-million dollar conglomerates control the mining industry today and don't care about Bitcoin's whitepaper or ideology, profit above all else 1 quarter at a time. Miner revenue has been quickly trending to $0 despite all of BTC's great price action because a $1T asset can't just double like a $1M asset did. People are still peddling the idea attaching a $25 HDD to their $3M server rack every 5 years would centralize the whole thing. Maxis argue why bother when Binance/Coinbase/Lightning all work off-chain just fine, ignorant of the fact all their revenues are parasitic and should be going to miners instead. Fees make up 0-2% of the security budget and have been for years. If the market cap of BTC doesn't become a quadrillion dollars in 20 years its security budget will decrease exponentually, weakening security eventually to the point of failure. 2 quadrillion a few years later and 20 quadrillion soon after that... you get the point. No part of that is sustainable. If miners decided to stay with 1MB blocks but raised the max supply to 21M+3% a year then there'd no problem since security would be funded in perpetuity, but it'd have hurt its 'better than gold' narrative. If they raised the blocksize, as designed, back when it retail businesses were interested in accepting it and people weren't so jaded by the whole thing then there'd be no problem either. Core devs are saying it has 2 more halvings left before things get really problematic. Solutions to delay it all look horrible for its narratives and value propositions; migrating to POS to cut mining costs to $0; robbing Satoshi's coins and redistributing them to miners; adding another 21M coins to the supply or introducing an inflation rate; taking a fee from all coins with an ongoing inactivity tax. However, all better than a sudden catastrophic failure. I think there's maybe 10-15 years if I'm being optimistic before things start to break. Saylor could force it in 5 if he continues, if BTC just goes kind of sideways for that much time. Not really affording anybody any sort of warning, and forcing the collapse and fallout to be catastrophic. I like crypto and playing in its markets, so even with mixed feelings for BTC I just can't stand what he's doing and risking.

I dip my toes in occasionally but even I can get obsessed about tracking the moves. It’s far better to, as you say, mostly ignore and the big moves will be all over the news. Especially if you’re DCA and HODL

Advanced-Summer1572

Yes I remember this from 2013. I just didn't understand the process, couldn't find anyone to explain it and couldn't actually find a source to see a coin. No sense kicking myself now. Warren Buffet in 2022 was still making my case as to why Bitcoin, for me, in 2012--2013 wasn't an option, as an investor. Oh well. I am in now and that is all that matters. HODL

"HODL til you waddle" is legendary lol. Splitting across two platforms is smart too, most people don't think about that until it's too late. Keep stacking man, the boring consistent buyers always win in the end.

Famous-Ebb3041

You said: ***"Im selling my car to be able to buy 0.15 btc and save for my future. Anyone here ever sold something major to buy Bitcoin? Regret it or not?"*** In 2021, I saw the pattern and what was a mystery to me, since 2013, no longer was. And I began steadily buying up Bitcoin as little as 1/1000th of 1 Bitcoin at a time. Matching each purchase between Coinbase/PayPal. I now have 10% of 1 Bitcoin (0.10 BTC) and I didn't have to sell anything to accomplish it. Simply steady, persistent determination. Week by week, month by month, and year by year. Set your goal and persist until it's reached. I'm now HODLing til something crashes/collapses and then I will continue my buying spree once my holdings turn red again (I can't wait for that to happen!). Never buy in the green, only red. Buy going down... and buy on the way back up. HODL til you waddle!

SpendHefty6066

If the wallet is to be used like cash, that is a hot wallet for coffee money, it is low risk. Just like you would not walk around town with your entire life savings in your pocket, you would not keep your primary HODL stack in your hot wallet on mobile. The issue I have is that priming people to enter their seed phrase anywhere is simply a very bad practice and will inevitably lead to major losses. The more successful your app is, the worse the state of security becomes for people. So abandon it. **Never type a seed phrase into any device period.**

restore_democracy

DCA, HODL Saved you some time and money

Remarkable-Owl-5712

The AI bubble hasn't even popped yet. Bitcoin is this price because nobody has money. Just wait until their 401k's and stocks go up in flames. Are they going to HODL BTC or feed their family? BTC has SO much lower it can go. My guess is mid 40's.

Retirednypd

Well said. Its a pyramid scheme. This is EXACTLY why bitcoin proponents preach HODL. its because they got in later than the very beginning and need new money to keep flowing in through speculation and fomo. Why? So they can turn a profit and get out.

cryptonoobsnews

This is sad. For the first time in history retail front ran institutions. While they were trashing us, we were buying and hodling. Many of us who've been around since the beginning are watching the noobs sell into weakness while institutions reposition their bags. In the end it will be mostly institutions, countries, verbal banks, etc., and only a handful of retail holding bags. So, while retail panic sells because they don't understand bitcoin, the rich are scooping it all up at a discount. DNFS!! HODL!!

Advanced-Summer1572

Personal defi bias aside? If you are an investor and not a hobbyist, this is the strongest proof to get in there and buy what you can NOW. These organizations and rich investors don't speculate. They are not keeping a secret. They are pouncing on an opportunity. Obviously, they know there are bigger things coming. They know the true worth of this asset. (If it isn't happening as quickly as they want? They can and will make it happen...) Argue about the daily ups and downs all you want, but buy! HODL

MyEXTLiquidity

It’s silly because you are willfully ignoring reality. That’s not how investing works. If I buy S&P 500 and we have a down day or year I can’t return it lol. If I bet on the Patriots for the Super Bowl, DraftKings doesn’t say, well here’s your money back for losing.  You can sell and eat the loss. I’ve done that too. Sometimes it was a good idea and I freed up capital and made my loss back. Other times it was a bad idea and had I HODL’d + DCA id have at least made my money back + some profit.

Hot_College_1343

There is a possibility in 2028 to sell for the price you bought it for. It is a holding period called HODL.

Advanced-Summer1572

Wallets are sooo 2013! Just one more thing to have to try to keep safe from, loss, fire, theft, or even time. The seed phrase is part of the KYC process, but exchanges are quite competent. They keep you plugged into all of the legal, innovation and of course tax issues as crypto grows in adoption. HODL

GrendelsFather

Can we be adults and stop using the term”HODL?”

Rumbletastic

Historically and based on 200MA.. next week is false hope. But it'll get there eventually and surpass it by a wide margin. If you can afford to HODL, HODL

usedmattress85

I know what you’re saying for sure but it’s funny, even on this sub the amount of people who will not use the 4 year cycle to their advantage is huge. HODL and DCA are all anyone talks about. I get aggressively downvoted for saying that I sell it all close to the top and buy back close to the bottom. So we’re still a long way from everyone doing it. But yes I agree, the cycle could change, could end, anything’s possible but as long as it remains then I’ll keep doing my thing.

SteadyGridProfits

Depends on your end goal……. If you want to grow it there are better ways. If you want to stay safe HODL. Are you looking short term or long term?

EastCoastASIC

Because it is nearly impossible to time the market. Pro tip just HODL.

confusedguy1212

I think the sad thing is that the environment is so chaotic (rife with insider play) that realizing any losses is not wise right now. It’s a time to HODL hard.

HODL & DCA is what always worked for me. Reading a good, usually Bitcoin related book, helps with the FUD.

Lyn Alden's Broken Money and Bitcoin Standard books are very good books to read.

energetic_one

You are absolutely correct in everything. Those degen gamblers still exist and talk trades only. Those that see the true value buy and HODL for the time when they will need to rely on BTC and it's technology. Years ago a site called BTC-e existed and I purchased my Bitcoin there, then immediately shipped it out to Coinbase which was new. Buy/sell fees were much lower on BTC-e. I monitored the chat in BTC-e and could not believe the shortsighted mentality and stupid day trading talk going on. They felt the value of Bitcoin was only in the daily buys and sells. Of course nearly all lost money... and complained about it 😆 Then one day I showed up to buy more and was greeted with a big seal and sign... "FBI - this site has been seized and shutdown". Found out later BTC-e had been laundering money, maybe that's why their fees were so low!

bedhead215

Also, I’m speaking in broad, general term because I simply don’t know much about the subject. I’m a long time HODL’r of about 8+ years but don’t keep up. But have been curious recently with the market still down and even dropping in recent weeks

The_Bitcoin_Act

Can you specify what you’re trying to do with your coins? And what is your jurisdiction? Because I can’t give you an informed opinion without those details. I just can tell you to use a P2P platform to buy your BTC if you just want to HODL.

TheresNoSecondBest

HODL & DCA is the name of the game, mate. You cannot time the beast.

Scary_Metal2884

We did a study of the ETF IBIT, HODL, BTC. Both IBIT and HODL have lowest slippages. IBIT fees are much higher than HODL. IBIT has a deeper order book in case you are afraid of moving the market with your orders. I eventually went with HODL for lower fees

ImpressiveRelief37

And also taxes suck. I prefer to just HODL. I don’t even add to my position, it wouldn’t make any sensible difference.

Old_Cat_9534

First time buying sub 100k (AUD) since Aug 2021, that's crazzyy but still, feels good to stack sats and HODL at a discount.

pass341

No because when you’re investing in something that is quintessentially useless, sooner or later sanity will prevail… Literally exactly what happened with Gamestop yeah? Or AMC lol… All of it valiant in the moment, but time moves on and people stop caring. You can HODL all you want but sooner or later that which has no utility will become irrelevant. No amount of hype, FOMO or diamond hands can save you from that…

Floppy-Rivers

HODL Hold on Dreams longterm.

usedmattress85

I quit HODL’ing. Sold my entire bag at $110k when the Larsson Line flipped, waiting to pile back in. I suspect we’ll have a little relief rally and some sideways moves then a final leg down to the bottom. Never HODL and bear markets become the most exciting phase that happens.

Finentce

I started my Bitcoin journey in 2023. All I've known is up. I thought that the "Noobs freaking out about a dip" and "First Time" memes were over exaggerated. I was wrong. Riding the roller coaster down in the range of 50% from ATH, I get to see it with my own eyes. Even now there are multiple posts on the front page of r/Bitcoin with hundreds of engagements _freaking out about the dip_. Welp, guess they didn't do their research. _We_ saw this coming. I can't help but think as I see them, "Must be their first time". DCA, HODL, and Chill friends.

_JamesDooley

Man I ain't spreading shit lmao I just don't care. HODL and chill no matter where the price goes shouod be everyone's motto. Just don't ever pretend you know shit (and this goes to the first guy too)

Anonymous_Lurker_1

Personally, I plan to HODL long term. I'm thinking another 10 years. I'll see where we are then. You might want to check your ISA rules. I believe if you're holding actual BTC, ISA's aren't eligible after April, and you won't get the same benefits as you do currently. I held IB1T on T212 too and sold around Christmas time. I think T212 will just automatically cash in the value and you have to open an IFISA instead. I am still considering IB1T again though. Keep what I have in cold storage, and let T212 manage my keys. Against the BTC ethos, I know, but I want to cover all bases. I do think MSTR is worth having too - though I haven't got any currently. When I did have some MSTR, I held a few others too that performed well whilst BTC was around ATH - check out GLXY, HIVE, RIOT and MARA. I simplified my stocks into an All World ETF and a few individuals with small allocations, but I am thinking of lump buying some of the above again. When BTC rips, BTC-related stocks rip more (though they drop more than BTC drops too).

GreedVault

it looks like you are pretty much forced to HODL.

bitski44

HODL. There's a tool I use called Never Sell Your Bitcoin that has a lending calculator. The whole idea is you never sell, and if you ever need cash you borrow against your BTC instead.

On this subreddit, you will be encouraged to move the BTC to a non-custodial wallet and HODL. If you need to give them 1 penny to move the $4k of BTC to your own wallet, it is a scam.

Numerous-Annual-721

buying bitcoin with no-kyc is easy. ever getting your money out is a different story. there's no bank that will deal with bitcoins of unknown origin, not to mention you will have a very hard time proving what you paid for the bitcoin for tax purposes when you actually try to get your money back. no-kyc is for drug dealers and people who believe HODL or die. since you're looking at taxes, you're not a HODLer.

HODL is a lifestyle at this point. 💎🙌

Osobnost

Yes, trailing buy is good and I’m using it. But for long term HODL, it’s not very efficient. Another downside is that the buy amount is set in BTC, so beginners need to calculate it in USD by dividing USD by the activation price. In the end, you will get roughly the same amount of BTC, but you save some capital if the price goes lower.

What are you offering though? Is it Just paying $20 gas to HODL useless tokens and/or swap with other useless tokens or stake to get slightly more useless tokens that are magically minted? A 1000 chains a day are created that do all this. A 1000 more will be created tomorrow doing the same thing. Most will be $0 by this time next year. What real world value do you offer. Besides a fun way to exract fees for miners.

omnipotentnothing

Or just DCA and HODL and stop trying to time and outsmart the market. You will never miss a bottom or a bull market if you just DCA. You can also write off some of the losses while the market capitulates during the bear.

Blueberry_Dependent

Because some people HODL a bunch of shitcoins for 4 years and when the time came for them to pump ...guess what... they went even lower so now they have to hold another 4 year in hopes of price movement not to make profit but to get their money back. If they sell now they lose 90% of their investment. Just wonderful.

Personally i am watching and waiting for $50k. I could easily be wrong but i dont see any real use cases for bitcoin beyond scarcity so i want to trade it not HODL it. One big risk is more forced selling by smaller “treasury” firms. I dont think MSTR is going to have to sell but smaller firms may.

TheSoggyPops

In for 15k Up to 26k Down to 8k I should’ve took profits I was just wasting for 30k which 2x seems reasonable in crypto. Guess not. I’m going to start DCAing again now. And just HODL my positions I guess. Lots of alts. But they are already down 90% so the only risk is they go to zero…

XapoBank

It’s a great point. Ten years ago, a drop of over 50% would have felt like a retail panic; today, it feels like institutional rebalancing. We’re seeing that the 'New Rules' are much more about macro liquidity than just the 4-year halving heartbeat. In this more mature environment, the 'HODL playbook' is evolving. It’s no longer just about holding through 80% drops; it’s about managing your position with professional-grade discipline. Many are finding that a conservative 40% LTV is the new benchmark for staying resilient. It allows you to participate in the 'Supercycle' potential while recognising that Wall Street introduces a different kind of volatility than we saw in 2017 or 2021.
