Easiest is probably Bitcoin ATM, or physical Bitcoin storefronts, which exist in most big cities across the world. Most have no KYC under $1000 or some similar threshold, and you can cash out slowly to cover regular expenses/spending. Downside is it'll probably cost you 7-10% in fees when doing so in such small amounts. Or, you can just HODL for a few more years in hopes that Bitcoin adoption will mean you can spend it in restaurants, travel, etc. Or just spend it on escorts and/or drugs.
Hi guys...I am so new.. Just on the research stage.. Will someone tell me if HODL. Is a typo for hold.
The winner of the Ponzi scheme is the people who get in early. That’s how all Ponzi schemes work. In addition for crypto there’s an added layer of exchanges and other sketchy 3rd parties, which complete additional sketchy activities, so they’re also winners. Hackers are winners too. So basically, early adopters (whether aware or not) and scammers are the winners. As to whether you’re an early adopter: that’s anyone’s guess! It could go to $500k before it drops and if you decide to retire rather than HODL before the pop you’ll have won too, even if you truly believe. So yay gambling.
>The best strategy is and will continue to be stacking sats, self custody, ignore >the price swings, and HODL. Shorting is super risky unless you know when a top is. I would not be posting here if I had that info. I personally think DCAing and being prepared to hold for 5 years through whatever downs happen (whole continuing to DCA) is the only strategy I personally feel comfortable with. If you can time a crash, yes you should short. I caution timing it is not easy though.
HODL it for long term. Thank me later. Have a good one. 🫡
Post is by: CryptoHotep and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1oaxzuk/non_levered_strategy/ I swing trade for the most part just spot using weekly Supply and Demand levels with RSI and Heikin Ashi to find areas to buy and sell off. Personally I have a long term HODL portfolio just for $BTC $ETH $LINK and $AAVE. I DCA into that each week. But with the active trading portfolio is where I’m not looking at holding my position for over a year and simply sell off when I’m done. These can be held for a couple of months to 6. Since adopting this strategy and not incorporating emotion and “holding on for dear life”, 2025 has been my best year. Anyone else just do spot? What’s everyone else strategy look like? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

When was the last time btc dropped 50%? That Oct 10 "crash" was close to 10%. I don't know exactly because I'm team HODL. People making drama.
DOT is 1/2 the price it was 5 years ago when /r/cc discovered it after it suddenly appeared in the CMC top 10. - Every single early buy is a loss - Every single buy at the top is a loss - Every single buy at the bottom is a loss - Every single dipping buying is a loss - Every single DCA is a loss The only WIN is SELLING. HODL, buy the dip, DCA, etc never was intended for shitcoins. > Where did Polkadot come from??

Bro, you posted this on the wrong sub. Here, people who have been HODLing for a long time think they're genuises. No, they were fuckin lucky. Even a 2 yr old can HODL. There's no skill in that. I'm a trader myself and my suggestion is to stick to BTC for futures, and do not play with other coins. If you are able to make your TA work with BTC, it will work for ETH/SOL and others. Don't lose heart.
People who have been HODLing for a long time think they're genuises. And they're arrogant. I posted an analysis about the bitcoin price action yesterday, after months of research, giving citations and links to data which is openly available. I made the mistake of saying that I started HODLing about a year ago. These fuckers didn't even read the whole post, and were quick to dismiss me calling me names and pointing out that I haven't even seen one 'cycle'. Well, you guys are not geniuses, you are lucky fuckers who were told by someone to HODL. And even a 2 yr old can do what they're told.
What would you do if you could go back in time say 10 years ago? Buy and HODL bitcoin right? What would you do if you could go back in time 5 years ago? Buy and HODL again! What do you think you have to do today?
i also HODL, and i also been stacking since 2 years. Dont get me wrong, i like how strong BTC has become. But i see no difference to the rest of my portfolio - except for gold, which has repeatedly behaved very well when everything else crashes. I'm think about moving my BTC into "real" gold
It’s a tech stock because you believe it is. Some will use it as currency, others will use it as a store of value. Btw, in other countries, people hoard USD, because to them it’s a store of value in comparison to their currency. Others sell USD for Gold, believing that the USD is a very volatile asset (it is). Someone said it once to me, and it kinda stuck. It’s not that Gold or Crypto is rising, it’s fiat is dropping. The proof is in your day to day shopping. Why are prices rising? And it seems like the only currencies that are keeping up are Gold and BTC. But what do I know. I just HODL till it’s gone
Recently someone mentioned cordona shitcoin making them rich in the daily post. So I've checked it's price in sats. In 2021, that shitcoin was selling at 5,000 sats. Today, around 500 sats a piece. Even if Charlie pumps is somehow, it will probably never reach it's 2021 ATH in bitcoin terms. That's why **the majority of shitcoin holders keep losing against simple Bitcoin HODL** gang.
This seems to be the common MO for new bitcoiners. They make it so hard, but it really is easy, just DCA and HODL, that's it.
What?! How is that possible? Are you not a HODL person?
This is why you HODL and ignore the noise.
HODL you idjit. HODL...not day-trade One of those two things isn't gambling. ( Initially in at $15/BTC - Jun 2011 - still HODLing )
I’ve owned coins since the 80s. Pretty much like bitcoin. HODL until the end of the world.
Damn dude. I think last week was a shake out before we run up here. Buy and self custody spot bitcoin. Trading against whales is a losing game. We win by the HODL.
You still have yourself. You only lose when you sell. HODL man! It will come back.
HODL and DCA. A bit of trading is ok. You know there is stop loss. Don't assume you can beat the market, and don't leverage. This isn't hard.
DCA and HODL. If anything, do that. If you have a nice stack already: congratulations. Stay humble instead of getting greedy.
Gotta know when to HODL, know when to FODL.
Both, always has been. Source: I’ve stacked gold since 2008 and btc since 2011 HODL both my friends, keep staking.
They see me HODL, They Hating, Trying to get me sell too early. Trying to get me sell toooo early.
HODL with conviction or don’t HODL at all. This is cyclical. People have timed this peak since the last cycle. Some timed it to the day with receipts.
Not sure why you’re getting downvoted but I agree. Yes “HODL” but also take profits when you can.
Nobody here is crying. Nobody here is asking questions. Nobody here is trying to learn. Everybody here is giving unsolicited DCA advice to questions nobody asked and vritue signaling whatever the fuck this HODL circlejerk of a sub is.
Meh, just a small dip. I'm hoping for a proper deep dive so I can throw some extra money in. I have already gotten more money out of crypto than I've put in. Been in the game for some 15 years. Just ignore the hand-wringing and HODL.
Because they are the "guarantees" of the future of crypto. Remember when the banks were failing? The US Government made each of the seven biggest banks take $40 billion each. Whether they needed it or not. That is the safety net for the currency markets, and believe me, crypto is now a solid member of that once exclusive club. A year ago? Maybe crypto could have stuffed some billionaires out of a billion or so in investment money and gone to zero. Not so now. Go long. These are growing pains. The industry is just beginning to monetize products and services to support cryptocurrency. HODL .
HODL and buy the dip. Satoshi said it, right? Have a good one. Thanks 🫡🫠🩷
It’s a comedy. He’s wrong, over and over again, and we get rich 🤑 cuz HODL. Thanks good one! 😂🫡🫠🩷🥳🍕👾
Satoshi said buy the dip and HODL. Orders from headquarters! Thanks good one 🫡
for food? car? house? naaaaah HODL
Some of us believe in more than just one thing in life. Being so narrow minded creates tunnel vision, which can make you polarized. Also, if something else is created that is truly better, you'll get left behind for being stubborn and intentionally blind. Diversity is not a bad thing. \[as I currently stand at 100% XRP - lol\] - but I have a plan and not because I think it's something special to keep forever. We all have a different plan and we all walk a different path. Nothing wrong to stay in your lane of comfort. Different coins for different uses. Sure BTC can be that Store-of-Value you desire but it's not going to buy me a cup of $1 USD coffee/pop efficiently. There are other coins/tokens that can do that low price spending more efficiently and, in some cases, cost free. BUT to buy a house or car, sure. HODL for retirement? Sure. Also, if decentralization is important, why only have one form of 'money/currency'? I would think that many different monies/currencies, on many different platforms, would be best. If BTC is the only one and it gets hacked/wacked and/or just internet down solar storm kind of world - we need a back-up. Generators only last so long. Basically, the whole point of this post is to show that, "diversity is not a bad thing", like some would like you to believe. Walk a walk.
Same - i vividly recall sitting in my bed at like midnight when it hit an ATH about to sell and make around $100k - me and all my boys said HODL bc it'll hit $100. Slammed my computer shut and went to bed. Biggest regret of my life.
I don’t buy this argument because I think we’re underestimating the millions of people under authoritarian regimes around the world who still find ways to HODL their Bitcoin and exchange their satoshis on mesh networks. Governments aren’t as savvy or powerful as we think. Cypherpunks created Bitcoin in the first place and coders can and will keep it alive and stay one step ahead.
For those not 'in the know': OP confirms that the past tense of HODL is HEDL. OP HEDL well.
The comparison to gold's massive market cap highlights the immense potential for Bitcoin's growth as a store of value. well done. HODL and forget the noise.
This is a rational perspective on a predictable market cycle that new investors often overreact to. Your advice to focus on the long-term strategy of buying and holding Bitcoin is the correct approach. HODL and ignore the noise.
Which is good for those who HODL through and will buy at 70k and DCA onwards. I'm holding out for a real bear next year
Buy $TROLL on solana and HODL before Binance lists it and you lose the chance
just HODL, thats all you need to know! Patience is everything. How can people lose everything??? Zoom out and relax…..
Just DCA. This way you buy the blow-off top, the flash crash, the pump, the dump, the sideways, basically everything over time. And if you HODL that over a reasonable duration - maybe 2-3 years, depending on your risk profile and other investments/financial situation - you probably come out well ahead. Keep doing that over the long haul, combined with taking profits on older investments at some slow-but-regular pace, and one gets comfortable ignoring the short-duration movements (up or down).
It's the only way to HODL *forever* LOL /s
This isn't the first time, and it won't be the last. HODL the line! https://youtu.be/oCE8jHLJe3g?si=Zq76uLiOzav36qf0
How much of your wealth is allocated to BTC? If you say 100%, take some off the table. And yes, set aside some fort the .Gov. From where I started, BTC has grown to an oversize portion of my portfolio. However, I view BTC a hedge against the USD and inflation. And I do not need to sell any. Maybe in 5 years. I am with you. HODL until you are ready to sell.
I was talking about Roy Keene, CTO, but I’m sure people will recognize the brilliance of nano any day now. HODL!
I bought my first Bitcoin at $15k. Then a few weeks later it hit $19k and then crashed for a few years. You need to have the stomach to HODL.
HODL is always best strategy for crypto but only for certain crypto: like for example HODL in meme coins would be exceptionally stupid 🤣🤣🤣 imo bitcoin and eth should be HODL, and I also HODL 3 altcoins but only because I believe in their long term use (Sol, Chainlink and XRP)
I’m someone who’s played with bitcoin since 2016 but was too scared to actually hodl any significant investment. I look back at transactions where I sold off 1-2 bitcoins back then. Would have been life changing money for me now. Today I’m taking advantage of the discount and HODL forever
2 hours ago your loss would've been 2% less and you could've bought more bitcoin for the same money. but you shouldn't think like that. just HODL and it will go either up or down. that's really the only certainty we have. you have to think long term and capture a lot of inflation first to be profitable.
\> Majority of projects are either held by institutions or whales that move the price however tf they like. ah so there is movement..just not on our watch. \>No amount of TA, chart reading etc etc etc can predict some dumbass tweet that will nuke everything. If it hasn’t been clear yet we’re just here to profit them. Precisely. nobody knows shit about fuck. speculation and hype. that's why you buy hodl and yawn when its in the deep red. next month it might be the exact opposite. do not cower to fear. even if it is manipulated as fuck notice the tokens are dipping but they arent zero. as long as it aint zero you can profit and it has to rise eventually. a cycle of buy and sell orders must be made in order for profit to be made, even the most vile crypto criminal knows this whether it be Trump,CZ,Scamdeep,Arthur Hayes or others. The point is they cant stop you from profiting. keep DCAing and never futures trade. \*\*Their main way of fucking you up is futures trading. This is what people don' get. Futures is a trap. they are counting on you to make losing leveraged positions. that is when you become exit liquidity. you never get liquidated if you simply spot and HODL\*\*. That's the point. those same whales and scammers will boost it when they see fit. you want to make sure that as the poor retail guy you get yourself in a good deep trench to get raptured by the eventual bullrun but for now you invest only when it dips and only invest in coins that have good market structure,good historical price performance,high liquidity. volatilty hardly matters any more. its momentum,not magnitude over a period. magnitude only matters for buying at the lowest possible.
Utter nonsense. If you bought bitcoin 5+ yrs ago, there's a good chance you have an insanely lost cost basis. Having a low cost basis on bitcoin, or any other asset for that matter makes HODLing a lot easier. When you add in the fact that the asset you're HODLing, in this case bitcoin, has given you such great % returns, it becomes even easier to HODL.
since 2013... Lessons: like you - just HODL (as per the "original" meaning: don't day trade) Bitcoin is the only one that matters
BEEET CONNECT! 😂 I'm hoping the next correction I'll be able to jump back aboard. I saw BTC under 3k once but I was facing down a sentence & obviously didn't have funds. It's now over 100k, which during my time HODL'ing was the golden plateau. It'll dip. It always does, & when it does, i hope I'm in a secure financial situation to be able to get my slice.
But but but... he made it sound like there was zero risk with LEFT's. SRSLY: Do people really believe there is no risk when something offers to double their returns. I've lost count of how many times I've heard of peep's losing after trying to "amplify" their returns. Be that trading, leverage, yield, new sh\*tcoin BTC killer or (insert next scam here). Please, for the love of BTC, just stop! Stop trying to beat the market. Buy, HODL and go make yourself a sandwich.
Fucking HODL and ignore the noise
\- Early gaming coins and communities were fun: ENJ, AXIE, Kitties & others. It felt like a huge leap for gaming but ended up nowehere unfortunately. \- Fun how over 10x investments feels. When coin pass ceratin threshhold every 10% is your another X multiplier, Feels good especially if you're into solid projects. HODL is good but if it is based on your own thoughts and conviction. If you're being shilled into something you don't understand HODL is very painful.
Ah, the endless cycle of fear and greed. its just DCA, HODL. So easy, this is until you run out of things to sell to buy the dip. Stay warm and diversified this winter. Pay those bills now! Stock pile. The smart money will have set aside piles of worthless fiat before this upcoming crash and you can bet they will be buying as much as they can and sinking the markets the deepest they can before they deploy it. Will you sell under the pressure? When grocery prices skyrocket, petrol and medical bills start to drown you. Tarrifs? ohhh yeahhh. Good luck fam. DCA, HODL, never invest more than you can afford to lose, and if you are like most of the smoothbrains here. DONT USE LEVERAGE!
gov is shut down, banks are failing, gold is at ATH. i suggest you buy more bitcoins and HODL.
Trump and blackrock are loaded with BTC and ETH. It’s going to the moon guaranteed. Ignore the noise, don’t use leverage and HODL. Simple.
We just Biggest Crypto selloff in history, how long before it comes back? That's a solid week of red days, how many are still HODL?
I doubt we will be seeing it below $100,000 again. Try DCA strategy, works well. And make sure to HODL.
Stop checking the charts. Just let it marinate. It will go back up. It will also go down. Eventually it will really go up. Just HODL and chill.
That is true, but it still drive miner capitulation at some point each cycle. The first cycles were 80+ percent drops and last cycle ”only” 76%, so you’re right that this time its probably less this time, but I would not dare to estimate a percentage number. Im not saying it isnt worth to HODL for multiple cycles, just that I think this cycle might be starting to be over.
Just HODL, it's gonna suck for a bit, but as long as you don't sell you don't actually take any losses. Just close the charts for a few months and you'll see
not wrong, but no one went rich without HODL
I'm not gonna adopt the buy low sell high mindset anymore. I can't look at graphs 24/7, my sanity is gonna go out the window. HODL and forget is the answer for me. Better use that time to upskill instead. A salary is still the most stable and reliable revenue.
BUY‼️ Then HODL🤙💪only the strong make it out alive and above water.
Doesn't matter. I am long. In ten years...I will reassess. Good luck. HODL.
You really do get used to it. I first bought at 18k and around 38k before the ETFs were approved and launched. I used to watch the price movement on the regular but it doesn’t even register to me anymore. Just HODL and rise above the noise.
This is the way Bitcoin used to be before the institutional investors got in! Just keep buying while it's cheap an HODL. The only number that matters is coin count every dollar you lose now will bring it's family home in a few months.
Wall Street is now involved. They can manipulate the price and will try and shake all small retail investors out of their coins. HODL on.
Then you are confused about the meaning of "long". The function of long is to be impervious to short term fluctuating economic or political effects. I am beginning to think that no one commenting on Reddit understands the subject being discussed. Unfortunately or fortunately, depending on your point of view, most people and businesses have no idea about crypto or Bitcoin in particular. There is a huge benefit in being in this position. Remember that most Bitcoins have been mined already. While major financial changes are coming because of SEC rule changes. New products and services are being offered everyday that require Bitcoin and market makers like Ethereum, Solana, ADA.... As the world realizes these products, the institutions, banks, credit card companies and yes the consumers will simply begin using them. HODL. You are the top of the spear in a brave new world of finance being formed in plain sight, yet invisible to the unitiated. HODL!
The second best time to get on board is now, the first best time to get on board was yesterday :) Just stack sats via DCA and you'll never lose. Sure, there will be times when you will be red, but as long as you HODL you'll be quite in the green in a few years.
I'm a simple man, I stack and HODL. I do appreciate the levered longs getting me some cheaper sats tho.
I think it’s always a good time to buy Bitcoin if you can HODL. You might also want to think about going with DCA strategy.
It has been some intense ups and downs during the year, haha. Nice that you enjoyed it. Take care and keep HODLíng
Because you seem like a solid guy, I'll give you a piece of advice I wish someone gave me when I started in crypto 5 years ago: This entire market is a dog eat dog pyramid schemez nothing more, nothing less. All the "technology", "decentralization" and other use cases are empty narratives to get more suckers to buy so big players can sell at a higher price. Forget "doing your own research", "DCA", "HODL", "WAGMI"...these are all hooks so that you don't sell before the whales do. The only thing that matters in crypto is your entry point and exit point, that's it. Don't be too greedy, take gains early if you have any, otherwise you'll be stuck holding worthless bags of unrealized losses. Don't get to sentimental and attached
Just buy and HODL in cold storage for years so you don’t get tempted to sell to fast :) Or use DCA strategy on Kraken.
Congratulations on becoming a satoshi millionaire. Your foresight has truly paid off. HODL and watch the value keep increasing.
The cycle technical ends on or about 19-OCT-2025 to sell everything and then the rebuy is DEC-2026 - HODL for 3 years and repeat.
Well HODL is the baseline strat, never wrong on 5+yr timeline, then you have DCA in/ DCA out. Never spend all cash on one dip. Keep savings/investment/trading(margin) accounts separate. Don’t maximize memecoins in the portfolio unless you •really• know what you’re doing. Buy heaviest during bear year end cycle. Bear year can last 10-14 months and there is one every 4yrs, historically. Just to name a few rules. DM any questions I don’t ask for payment nor do I offer *financial advices* Education/entertainment only.
Save all the headache. Just DCA buy Bitcoin and HODL. Simple.
