HOLD

Jason_Bourne6023

“HOLD” patient is what the Rockefeller’s, Gettys, Vanderbilts, Fords, Rothschilds & wealthy did for years; Patients is what will pay off…..Remember those that can afford always ask how much when purchasing an item the not so wealthy always ask how much a month….Give it time; I own 1.5 BTC & not looking for any immediate payoff; I’m on this horse for duration…..👍

Hold it!? WTF. HOLD IT??? I'm selling my house. I'm gonna pimp the wife. If my kids weren't grown I'd sell'em. Whatever it takes to get more money so I can buy more.

TheresNoSecondBest

You're doing Bitcoin completely wrong, mate. Run from the shitcoins before you get REKT. DCA into bitcoin instead and HOLD. Five years later, you'll thank yourself.

Buy the dip and HOLD

EntitateDigitala

Please, no offense, but this is how I feel about `\`investors\`` who only HOLD, without education in investments, without a plan, and act based on emotions.

This has to be trolling, cause nobody could be that obtuse or stupid. ***"Industrialisation, imperialism, and colonialism were manifestations of capitalism".*** Colonialism and imperialism existed before capitalism. It's been throughout human history. Romans, Islam, The Moguls. Pretty much every strong rule has invaded places, taken resources and subjected the native population way before capitalism. Industrialisation happened in the West, but if that had happened in a different system, it would have happened. Didn't the Soviet Union go through their own industrialisation? ***I just pointed out that the Transatlantic Slave Trade was motivated by PROFIT and it furthered my claim that capitalism has NO CONSCIENCE.*** Well it is isn't it? If it's happened throughout all human civilisations, then it been connected to capitalism means it's the outlier. To suggest otherwise is just avoiding all history and cherry picking it to point it out. There was also at the same time a far more brutal Trans Arab slave trade, but you want to to suggest that capitalism fosters slavery. It's simply not the case. ***They had a world wide empire that subjugated people under the boot of British law. Who cares if they abolished slavery.*** Yes, it was brutal just as any power in the world, but the difference is they were the first to stop it. I didn't see any other super power at the time which did this. Course it was horrible, but you have to give credit to a nation that is the most powerful saying no more as well. You only focus on the bad, which should be looked into, but also you have to look at the changes, positives and course corrections. In regards to your Soviet Union claim, sure they were not around in slavery times, but they made a good go of slave labour in Gulags or just killed you if you didn't agree. Not exactly a great regime. ***Yea communism is terrible 150 million people dying is horrible. Capitalism kills that much in 15 years AND YOU DONT CARE. This is projection on your part.***  Not at all, my point is that capitalism combined with science has done more to save lives than any other regime. Without that system, you wouldn't have the breakthroughs in science. ***The biggest driver of improvements of the standards of living for people ON EARTH over the past 50 years IS drum roll please..............................CHINA!*** I am curious why you think China is the biggest contributor to science and saving lives though, while bashing the West and suggesting it's the cause of all things bad. ***read this to yourself to see how funny you sound...it is a communists fault...for not FEEDING and TREATING the DISEASE....IN A POOR CAPITALIST COUNTRY...THAT WITHHOLDS FOOD AND MEDICINE.*** Again, you blame capitalist and ignore any of the good it's done and then suggest the poor commies couldn't do anything. Look at any developing nation with any metrics and the ones that adopt capitalism are doing the best. The communist ones, not so great. ***I would respect that if you were intellectually consistent and THEN HOLD CAPITALISM accountable for the deaths of 10 million people a year for withholding food and medicine.*** Yet, they have saved more lives with medicine and food. Sure, it's far from perfect, but I'm willing to bet that under communist rule, those numbers would vastly increase. Just look at the history of Ukraine and the starvations. Or Venezuela. ***Socialism IS LITERALLY based on morals. "Equality" "No exploitation of the worker.", "Everyone should have food." "No one should be subjugated to a landlord, employer, or bank.*** Yet mass starvations, political killings and millions dead of their own people, never mind if they were a power that impacted other nations. Whatever they preach usually goes the opposite. I'm from a country that has socialistic parts to it and I think some things should be socialised, but as a whole, capitalism is a better system. Not perfect, but as I stated earlier, the best system of the worst. I also currently live in a former communist country and let me tell you, the people I talk to about it would far from agree with you. Only a stupid, privileged person who has never been under the boot of communism would come out with such dribble.

Vancecookcobain

You didn't refute anything. You just made broad statements that aren't backed by anything but your own ignorance. "Capitalism isn't tied to Industrialisation, imperialism, colonialism hence why they are different terms for different things." \>>> You are categorically false. Industrialization, imperialism, and colonialism were manifestations of capitalism. No amount of stomping your feet and saying words without any argument will change the truth. Industrialization was WHAT? The utilization of labor to produce goods EN MASS FOR WHAT???? PROFIT! Imperialism and colonialism was WHAT? The invasion and subjugation of other peoples and lands and resources FOR WHAT???? PROFIT! It is such a dumb thing to dismiss the manifestations of capitalism that were brought about by capitalism to not be tied to capitalism because you deem it to be another term than capitalism LMFAO. That is like saying GULAGS, or CENTRAL PLANNING aren't tied to communism hence why they are different terms for different things. Stupid logic. "Capitalism is also not the creator of slavery, sadly that practice goes back through everyone's history." \>>> Nobody made that claim lmao. I just pointed out that the Transatlantic Slave Trade was motivated by PROFIT and it furthered my claim that capitalism has NO CONSCIENCE. "What is an interesting fact is that The Brits are the first nation to abolish slavery and try to stop the slave trade globally. I didn't see a non Western, socialist country do that. Because at the time, everyone was taking part in it and slavery was a stain on all of human existence, not just the west." \>>> They had a world wide empire that subjugated people under the boot of British law. Who cares if they abolished slavery. They were slaughtering and plundering the ENTIRE world when they abolished slavery. Are you MAD? Socialism wasn't even a thing on the world stage until the 1919 When Lenin overthrew the Russian monarchs....WHO HAD SERFS and abolished Serfdom. Slavery was pretty much abolished everywhere before the first socialist country emerged. What are you talking about? "I would expect that illness is the biggest killer of humans yearly that's always been the case, that's nothing new. it's estimated that 80-150 million people died from communism by the way, since you refuse to deal with that number. I would also add by any metric in the last 20 years, hunger and preventable illnesses are going downward, regardless of the uptrend of populations. I guess capitalism is blamed for the bad, it has to be blamed for the good right?" \>>> Yea communism is terrible 150 million people dying is horrible. Capitalism kills that much in 15 years AND YOU DONT CARE. This is projection on your part. You are displaying the same lack of conscience as Stalin did lmao...you share the logic of a tyrant by dismissing the deaths of those who die to needless hunger and preventable diseases...YOU ARE REFUSING to own up to this. You just keep pretending that science getting better is somehow capitalism when that is not the case lol. "It's estimated in the last twenty years, infant mortality rate for under 5's globally halved and The percentage of undernourished people globally by half as well to around 9%. Which is still too high, but it's an improvement. I wonder if communism had anything to do with that?" \>>> THAT IS SCIENCE NOT CAPITALISM. And even if you take the statistics at face value and want to attribute scientific advancements to economics KNOW THIS....The biggest driver of improvements of the standards of living for people ON EARTH over the past 50 years IS drum roll please..............................CHINA! "Was communism giving out food and vaccines to the underdeveloped nations? I must have missed that one, oh that's right it wasn't happening. So you have one system that has issues and does some good and one that does only evil. I know which one is winning. You can't look at one side of the stats without looking at the improvement." \>>> So lets break this down....read this to yourself to see how funny you sound...it is a communists fault...for not FEEDING and TREATING the DISEASE....IN A POOR CAPITALIST COUNTRY...THAT WITHHOLDS FOOD AND MEDICINE...FROM ITS OWN PEOPLE...........It's not the fault of that countries capitalist policies for letting companies withhold food and life saving medice................ITS THE FAULT OF A COMMUNIST COUNTRY FOR not SAVING THE WORLD FROM CAPITALISM...........you are unserious. "I hold socialism accountable for those deaths because those deaths were attributed to a specific ideology of socialism. Any one can look back and see that as soon as a communist gets into power, death and societal collapse follows." \>>> I would respect that if you were intellectually consistent and THEN HOLD CAPITALISM accountable for the deaths of 10 million people a year for withholding food and medicine from starving and sick people because they want to make a profit. You don't because you have an unserious intellectual position which is dishonest and rife with cognitive dissonance. 5) You argued that socialism has morals, which has single handedly lead to deaths of millions with nothing to show for it. \>>> Socialism IS LITERALLY based on morals. "Equality" "No exploitation of the worker.", "Everyone should have food." "No one should be subjugated to a landlord, employer, or bank." You can argue the IMPLEMENTATION of the system has been flawed and produced immoral results (as you can capitalism) but you cant say that it isn't based on morals "By your writing, I'm guessing you are a young, stupid American who has never visited a former Communist country or talked to anyone who went through it. Hence why you are so blinded by ideology." \>>> I hate communism. Come back when you have an actual intellectual position that can stand up to the scrutiny of someone that actually understands economic and political theory. You are unserious bro.

Vancecookcobain

And so you fall smh: "Why not go there? Maybe it's because socialist countries butcher their own people and take away their freedoms and have the opposite of morality?" \>> Capitalism literally was fuel by the Wests slaughter, raping and pillaging of 6 continents to make way for industrialization. Imperialism, colonialism and trans continental slavery all across the world for resources and profit. There were literally genocides on all six continents in the name of profits and 'freedoms' (FREEDOMS FOR WHO???). You SERIOUSLY can't be saying this with a straight face. "How many died in Russia? China? Cambodia actively from socialism?" \>> Less than those who died from preventable and hunger over the past 20 years in capitalist countries. "Capitalism doesn't kill people from hunger and diseases, instead they have done more to drag out people from hunger and disease as they bring industry, development and new medicines." \>> It literally does. You pretending that the distribution of vaccines and food being withheld because there is no profit incentives to feed or cure people from diseases IS PERCISELY the lack of moral disregard as a Communist dictator for his people you TRIED TO HOLD SOCIALISM ACCOUNTABLE FOR. Terrible argument. That and science and technological innovations is what develops new medicines not capitalism. "It wasn't socialism that came up with medicine that we use to help and to blame capitalism for hunger and disease which has always been sadly in human existence is a very silly claim. If someone dies from hunger in Laos, is it capitalism to blame? Or is it the disease and mismanagement of a state, local areas?" \>> If someone dies because Stalin was constipated does that mean it was socialisms fault? "I never argued that capitalism is perfect, it's you who came up with the claim that it's the root of all evil. I'm just willing to suggest that capitalism is the best of a worst system we have." \>> I never said it was the root of all evil. I said it has no conscience, and that is true. You're just mad because you are indoctrinated and brainwashed (Judging by your Fox News takes about what capitalism and lack of understanding what socialism is). You aren't well versed enough on this subject for me to take your opinion seriously.

You mistyped HOLD

Alex45223

Yeah. it's called HOLD ONFOR DEAR LIFE HODL Because more than likely it's gonna touch the 50ish k region and could even go to the high 40k due to diminishing return and it breaking its rule of never going below its last all time high and we're about to have some major economic issues soon

But low, sell high. Stop worrying about HOLD and max profit. If you see BTC as an investment asset, treat it as one.

HOLD & buy the dip, then don't look at the price until 100k again. This is the strategy.

Kwhip

Or HOLD?

Pristine-Grade8379

Because it was never meant to go up in the first place.. the creator of bitcoin unleashed a thought experiment so massive it’s gonna skip this generation before we all understand it. My theory truly is this: Bitcoin is a metaphor for how the human species imagines value out of thin air. Simply put; you can’t HOLD IT, you can’t EAT IT, you can’t PUT IT IN THE GROUND AND GROW IT, It plays no real role in the laws of nature.. it’s a pointless skeptical symbol of greed. You want it when you can’t have it and you don’t want it when it’s easily attainable. You don’t need bitcoin, you need a skill that allows you to change your immediate environment around you and adds true value to people’s lives.. not just your own. That’s not how nature intended it to be.

Additional_Thought_5

You fucking hold. And keep earning income. It’s like being an entrepreneur. The real income starts around year two or three for businesses that take off and make you a millionaire. HOLD

Decentralization-God

The problem is that you believed all those telling you HODL/HOLD is the best, when obviously it IS NOT. So why do they say it and pretend it wherever they appear? Try to think … and yes, its not nice! Bottom line: You did wrong when bought on TOP. But then you did extremely well, as you simply hold with patience, then you did terribly wrong when you did not realize any profit despite playing casino, losing 130k of unrealized proft. Now you are back on start position, eaten by inflation a bit. 😄👍 Whats next?

AttemptKitchen

Funny that people are looking for a reason of Bitcoin crashing almost 50% in 4 months, there is no reason, it has always been a ponzi scheme that repeats itself every four years, the elites of the moment jump in when it's at rock bottom (in this case, BlackRock with ETFs, Trump and his sons) drive it up then everyone jumps out of the ship while they scream HOLD!! to the naives. That's basically the four-year cycle, last time it was Elon Musk with his companies. I doubt they'll repeat the same game for next time, they've already done the same thing three times, now everyone's waiting for it to bottom hoping it will happen again.

Zealousideal-Guava69

Remember that you only lose if you sell!! Im also on that boat, just keep DCA, even if it's small amounts or just HOLD.

MudLoud97

Diamond hands don't come cheap. learn, don't bet over your head, and in 4 years sit back and grin! OH YOU HAVE TO HOLD TO HOLD BTW!

TraditionalCar2368

It's the latecomers who panic at the slightest red candle. DCA and HOLD have returned to normal. Don't get hung up on the charts like that.

Kind_Cheetah_1289

Just be calm and HOLD your position.

Firm_Fold8044

hodl = keep holding, even though it is dropping, because if you sell now it will probabaly at a loss. The market always goes down and up and downg again and up again. Or not, maybe it keeps going down. No one knows, but HODL means HOLD ON to your investments.

IlIll1Il1Illl1I1lII

It's because it's losing it's real-world usefulness value as all the energy that used to go into the goals of making it easy to purchase, promoting anonymity and getting as many merchants as possible to accept it has been redirected to _BUY, SELL, HOLD, BUY SELL, HOLD_ blather. To onlookers it's increasingly looking like an analog of some kind of stockmarket scam. Being finite isn't enough to _keep_ Bitcoin valuable. The energy needs to be shifted back to maintaining and improving its real world usefulness for the 'consumer'.

Escapement_Watch

because fiat gets printed every year. they tell you inflation is 3% but really your dollar loses about 7% purchasing power every year. So yes dollars are great for a medium of exchange....but if you HOLD dollars you become poor. only hold HARD ASSETS. btc/gold and spend fiat. take loans on fiat. you always want to spend fiat as it has no bottom.

ZannyNanny23

it comming back i think we are very close to the botom i have 10 charts that are showing major resistance levels and there top coins in the top 40 alts im deep im down about 30% or 40% on most alts but i still have money and im buying the dip. we have alot of catalsys comming new fed chai,r new laws, new news and regulation this always happens when there is doubt and after the oct 10th event it got worst its the BEST time for smart money to step in. CRYPTO IS VERY NEW GUYS WE ARE INVESTING IN WEB3 OF MONEY!! this has been talked about forever!!! HOW CAN U DOUBT IT!!! DO NOT SELL !! HOLD UR BAGS I CANT TALK FOR ANY CRYPTO THAT IS BELOW THE TOP 60 OR 70 COINS. IN MARKET CAP.

Vimes76

Problem is, this board is heavily weighted in favour of those who believe it is going to 40K and it's a bear market. So that's the top answers you're going to get. I agree with you, it's like when a meme stock gets flooded with 'HOLD THE LINE', 'Going to 5x from here, trust me bro' just before it crashes. Same thing, just in reverse. Too kuch bearish sentiment likely means the bottom is in or near (for me anyway).

DrSpeckles

Yes. The only ones who don’t pretend they have any utility. At least they are honest. The maxis seem to think people HOLD memes. By and large they don’t, they trade them, generally very, very quickly.

THE TETHER TRAP: TRUMP’S DIGITAL PRISON FOR YOUR GOLD The plan is clear: THE GOVERNMENT WANTS THE GOLD, BUT THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO HOLD IT PHYSICALLY. Through the GENIUS ACT, the Trump administration is using Tether and tokens like aUSDT or SOVGLD as "digital warehouses." THE TRAP: You buy the token thinking you "own gold," but the physical bullion sits in a vault under the jurisdiction of the U.S. or its allies. As the saying goes: "GOLD YOU OWN, BUT THEY CONTROL." By pushing this into 401(k) plans, they are turning the retirement savings of millions into a digital hostage. THE PUPPET MASTERS: Tether is now the largest buyer of U.S. Treasury debt in the crypto world. Tether is, in practice, AN ANNEX OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE. This is why the Trump/Bessent administration won’t destroy them; THEY WILL ABSORB THEM. They simply HIJACK TETHER. The government ensures Tether keeps operating, and Tether delivers the control. THE PANIC BUTTON: Tether has officially confirmed its collaboration with the FBI and the SECRET SERVICE. They have already frozen billions of dollars in private wallets under government orders. YOU THINK YOU FLED THE DOLLAR AND BOUGHT GOLD, BUT YOU ARE IN A DIGITAL NETWORK CONTROLLED BY A PLASTIC SURGEON FROM MILAN WHO ANSWERS DIRECTLY TO TRUMP’S TREASURY. The connection is undeniable: Tether’s reserves are managed by CANTOR FITZGERALD, whose CEO, HOWARD LUTNICK,   Trump's Secretary of Commerce. They are using FRONTMAN and offshore tax havens to build the ultimate weapon of financial surveillance. In the old system, a bank could fail, but physical cash still circulated. In the Tether/Bessent Gold Tokenization system, if you are labeled a "financial terrorist," YOUR DIGITAL GOLD IS ERASED WITH A SINGLE CLICK. There is no black market that can save you when the infrastructure is 100% digital and centralized in the hands of these billionaire "doctors" and their government handlers. PREPARE FOR THE GREAT DECEPTION: YOUR "STRATEGIC RESERVE" IS YOUR DIGITAL GAG.

NashDaypring1987

This morning someone actually made the argument that 2025 had no market rally. Hence, we are still waiting on a rally to begin this year... and maybe crash this year????? I hope they are right. I am still convinced this is a bear market rally and I am waiting to be proven wrong. If it crashes hard, I buy more. If it rallies to new ATH, I sell a little while holding onto my core position. Otherwise, I do nothing. Remember there are 3 moves: BUY, SELL, and HOLD.

If you believe in BTC yes. accumulate steadily and HOLD. If you don’t believe that’s fine. It’s ALWAYS YOUR CHOICE It’s my personal opinion not a recommendation. Inform yourself and make a decision either way. At the end you will blame yourself or celebrate - but again it’s YOUR DECISION AND YOUR RESPONSIBILITY what u gonna do with your Fiatelos 😉

Glass_Number_1707

Institutions and big banks etc have been boxing in the price for 6 months now. I miss the wild wild West earlier days. That being said retail needs to be careful. A lot of viotile swings created. Answer: Stack sats, DCA, and HOLD. It's that simple.

thomerow

Welcome to Bitcoin! "Sat" is the short form of "Satoshi", the smallest unit of Bitcoin, named after its (pseudonymous) creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. It's equivalent to one hundred-millionth of a Bitcoin (0.00000001 BTC). "HODL" originates from a typo of "HOLD" in a forum many years ago. It just means to hold onto your investments rather than selling them.

Severe-Masterpiece61

What the fuck is wrong with people? Is that really that hard to just HOLD your position ? I watched too the price go from 90 to 86 back to 90 several times. But unlike you, I knew that all I had to do was just to hold. Guess I'm more intelligent than you are

gatot3u

I don't have predictions. Just a plan: Buy (DCA) > HOLD > Forget Price > Living.

Ok-Blood7845

shortone87

The HODLRS would say: HOLD IT! There’s a reason that BTC is referred to as a long-term investment. Wait until 2030: bet it will be WAY over $1 Mil USD. So says the Rulers(BlackRock/StateStreet/Vanguard via their other High-hand accounts).

SteveW928

Hehe, it's so cliche, but 'Stay humble, stack Sats!' For me, it is understanding Austrian / macro-economics to some extent, and what Bitcoin really is in that context. I'm a HOLD'r, not a trader. So, while I kind of pay attention to all that stuff because I'm in Bitcoiner community, it doesn't have much impact in regard to my stack. I try to catch a 'sale event' when I have some spare fiat, but aside from that, little actual impact.

Shot_Spinach_1576

Not like he Advertised? I think I’ll have a word with the CEO. He said he’d do the research for me and then he didn’t expressly state it wasn’t financial advice. Heck, he didn’t even spell the word HOLD right!!! Obviously.

RiddleMe123

All this chart provides is that the concentration of large BTC holders is increasing relative to the overall amount of people holding BTC i.e. BTC getting more concentrated in large holders. Conversely BTC is less diverse. Can be interpreted in different ways, doesn’t mean anything “big” coming. After BOJ rises 0.25% on Friday - already priced in - and they say they will INCREASE again in the future, market will tank. If BOJ says it will HOLD steady thereafter, market won’t be so volatile. No one knows anything until then…

Expensive_Cellist927

There is nothing wrong with HODL. Holding on for longterm is absolutely fine, but what isn't is when your coin has 5x/10x/20x/50x/100x etc and you don't take any profits. IF it weren't for HODL then you wouldn't see your coin hit any of the potential gains possible said above. The real problem is YOU or the INVESTOR. HODL doesn't literally mean buy a coin, hold, then never sell. What would the point of that be???! It's more like HOLD ON FOR DEAR LIFE until it hits significant gains, but take some when you get there and/or on the way up too. HODL worked for me like a charm.

FromtheBigO

This. I wanted toward it in a different way, but it was long, this is straightened to the point. Wow there’s a lot of certainty with BTC itself, there’s no direct certainty on where it will go. That certain is that it will not go “100% away”. Up or down, it’s still gunna go sideways a lil. We can all do our best and continue to DCA / buy what you can AFFORD, and HODL. Five years from now a measly .001 of BTC could be $10k. If you believe, go with your gut and what you can afford. HOLD. Oh, and as of me recent learnings, make sure you get and know how to store and keep on a good cold storage wallet for whatever happens.

MemeyOreos

true but projects with good tech like SEI who just announced their preinstalled wallet on all xiaomi phones still wins eventually. just gotta focus on projects actually building stuff, and HOLD them.

All those people who bought stock before, now have less btc/share because of stock dilution. They didn’t DIRECTLY sell their btc. They sold more shares, lowering the amount each any holder owns. This is the exact same effect as selling. STOCK HOLDERS NOW HOLD LESS BTC.

Traders regardless of leveraged or not is a different cohort of people. My question is more for those who plan to HOLD and pass Bitcoin to their kids or grand kids as a potential prosperity.

U want inside info like “that 1%” ? It Bitcoin - Hold long - don’t trade - don’t leverage - don’t … anything - just HOLD it long term ! that’s the inside info (everybody knows only 1% follows ; )

Lethal_Autism

He told you to HOLD so Bitcoin wouldn't fall another coupe thousand before he could sell

Volgrand

Okay, I was in the same situation some years ago. SO first question is: DO YOU NEED THIS MONEY RIGHT NOW?If the answer is "Yes": Sell now, and stop losing. It sucks, but if you need the money, accept your loses and carry on. Let's say you DON'T need the money right now. What to do? **HOLD.** I'm not a guy of "hodl" no matter what. Let me explain: Back in 2021 BTC reached 65k give or take. I sold, made profits. OH YEAH!. Then it dipped to roughly 60K, I bought again thinking (among other coins) thinking prices would keep rising... And well, they crashed. My wallets were at -80% benefit. So I decided to let it be. At the end of 2024 I started seeing some greens in my profits. And just a few months ago I sold to stablecoins, recovering my whole investment and getting profits. **SO WHAT'S MY ADVISE?** Well, I moved away from ALTs long ago. They are like chasing a golden goose. Main cryptos (BTC, ETH, XRP, ADA, etc) will certainly recover from this bear market, but it may take time. You need the money? Sell now and don't lose more. You don't need the money right now? Wait. It may recover. Or not. **Never invest money you can't afford to lose!**

Or as other posters have said, buy more as it is crashing. If you sell or are getting scared by less than a 90% drop, ya should have never bought in the first place.

Post is by: Ubique008 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1p2gr23/playbook_from_a_crypto_veteran_nfa_dyor/ Been here since 2017. I lost everything in the FTX and Luna crash. Became a BTC maxi and it made me wonders this time. I bet the house in 15k BTC 2022 and sold it all at 107k. Never made back my 2021 paper gains, but still. What I am, me, me personally, have written down to do: BTC can go 75 80 85% down. It happens. The 4y cycle has not disproven itself yet. I am sitting all in safe treasure bonds until 13-14 months after all time high. By november decemver 2026 the bottom should be in. My guess is around 40-55k for BTC. When will I sell? 13-14 months after halving. I 100% got the bottom in 2022 and missed the top by not much tbh. It was the same time playbook that worked in 2017, and worked 2021, and worked again 2025. 2021 I lost 100% what I invested in the LUNA FTX crap. Never again. I myself will only buy BTC. Again, around nov 2026 and sell around 13-14 months after halvint whenever that is. This is not financial advice, this is just what a crypro veteran who got 100% wrecked did this time and will do again. Hold right now if you want. But Hold BTC. HOLD ONLY BTC. I would sell everything, even BTC, and way for nov 2026, but if you hold BTC i wouldnt blame you. I hold now what would be over 8 figures of alts at ATH, that are cents. Even bluechip alts like DOT and AVAX that I hold since 2021 ATH still wrecked me to hell. I would never in a million years hold alts agains, even ETH. Buckle up kids. The bear market memes are always amazing. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

HOLD!!!

To those looking for some explanation as to why Nov has been like this so far, my 2 cents... The October jobs data has been officially cancelled. (What a waste of space the US administration is) The Nov jobs report will drop now on Dec 16th, AFTER the FOMC meeting. This essentially leaves the FED blind to the jobs report, the number one thing that was leading to cuts. (bad labor report = more cuts even if inflation persists). The odds of Dec cuts just plummeted and it will most likely now HOLD. Risk assets are being dumped to cover liquidation cascades in other leveraged markets. The Oct 10th de-risking continues through ETF's etc. Ever wonder why the price kept dropping even though crypto was being deregulated? "Most bullish news for crypto"- is what a lot of you kept yapping about. None of that matters when you remove the barriers to grifting and crime. Business and money markets like stability. Predictability is the bedrock of economic policy, not whatever this is. P.s - Scott Bessent said the price of beef is up because IMMIGRANTS ARE BRINGING IN TOO MANY COWS WITH THEM. This is where you are in your economic policy with this redneck trash admin.

HOLD!!! I can't understand why people are selling! This entire process is a change of hands from OGs to institutions. They don't wanna buy BTC at 125K and make people rich when they can force it down and buy what everyone sells.. Exactly what they are doing! People need to understand that EVERY sold BTC is a bought BTC. They're running out of time to keep dropping the prices, and they'll buy all in before the stimulus checks are released. Then BTC to 200K

Just buy bitcoin every week. Dont put all your money at once. DCA is the way to go. Then HOLD.

Understand, and sympathize brother, hope you can find a way to HOLD, but rent needs to be paid, and kids fed. Me I’m going to sell everything I own till I get down to my Sea bag, and tent, before I sell 1 Satoshi. I’ll walk the earth looking for adventures like Kung Fu
