Title: What would you want to have and hodl for 1 year?
Post by: philipma1957 on April 01, 2024, 10:48:54 PM
I thought about this a long time. Having to hodl the btc or the 100k for a year makes this a tough call. 

I think I would take the cash.

well i'm not sure if i could hold $100k in my account without thinking of buying something while its as good as cash already.
if its still BTC, i wouldn't be thinking of it as a real money yet. and i would be hoping its value will still be more than $100k by the end of the year so i would choose 1BTC for me.

yes it would be a tough call especially in this economy where everyone needs money. but for some of us who can put all their hopes in 1 BTC, i think one will hold it til it gets $1M.

Easily 1 bitcoin. One year would be april of 2025, and I am pretty sure that it will reach 100k by that point. Plus, what happens after 1 year? I mean if I still get to keep it, then I will keep it, if I do not and given the money then I would just use that money to buy btc back. If I only get to keep it if I am right, then I am still sticking with 1 btc over 100k for sure. I am not saying I am right, there is no way of knowing what it will be, maybe it will be 200k maybe 50k, who knows? We are all making speculations here and I think this is mine, I like to see it go over 100k in less than 1 year hopefully.

For me I chose the option “I would want 50k and 0.5 btc”.

Of course, 100K$ is a very good price for me to get Bitcoin profits after a long hold, but I am greedy for more, perhaps 125-150K$.

Before this time, I was thinking of selling Bitcoin at the price of 100K$, but given the current market situation and the amount of optimism among everyone, especially after Halving, I think my thinking has begun to change and perhaps we will get a price higher than that.

But since I don't like risk either, it would be a suitable option for me to sell the half and hold the half.

yeah when I look forward to april 2025 I see more than 100k but you never know so the split the baby idea makes sense.

I voted for 1 BTC

To be honest, I wasn't not able to hold that kind of BTC, almost though if I have sold my altcoins that time and turn it into BTC. Another reason is that we are in the bull run so we all know that BTC can go very high during this cycle and every one is seeing like 1 BTC = $150,000. So that is big difference, you just have the patience and continue to HODL for at least 1 year from now. But that is easy if you look long term.

A year from now, of course Bitcoin... then for 1 year from 2025... I choose cash (because the only two options you gave)... the Bitcoin cycle is currently bullish and will remain bullish until the end of 2024 ( This is my prediction, make your own predictions with the risk you can handle)....

So, the choice between cash or Bitcoin with a certain time limit is really based on the moment.

A technical question your asked here. If I take 1btc,and in one year time the price is not up to 100k, I lose. If I take 100k,and keep it in the bank for 1 year for interest, I think I would have more than 100k. But if I will just keep the 100k in my possession with interest, by next year the value would depreciate. I am just confused.

I think this depends on your financial condition mate. As long as you have a stable income from the real world, then I recommend holding Bitcoin as long as you can. The $100k price might be best to stay on until it is reached.

But if your financial condition is unstable and you need money in the near future then you can sell some of the Bitcoin assets you own, so that when the price rises you still have Bitcoin left.

well you're right is kinda confusing , but I think I will go with 1 BTC , and hold for a year I believe Bitcoin is going to surge to the price range of 100k and even more than . And that time I can choose to sell 0.5 BTC from my holding which is $50k , while I continue my holding with the remaining 0.5 BTC for longer-term. Because Bitcoin is coin with the potential of growth.

here lets make this simple.

100k in 100 dollar bills in a box that you can not open for 1 year. it is frozen
1 btc in a trezor wallet in a box that you can not open for 1 year. it is frozen

after 1 year passes you can access what ever you picked.


it is a simple idea 💡, but hard to decide which one to get.


it is why I gave the hedge choice. of .5 btc and 50k


once the year passes if you go btc maybe you have 65 k coin maybe you have 115k coin.

if you go cash you will certainly have exactly 100k cash. more certain but could be a bad pick if btc is 150k.

Personally, I would think about whether to play safe, taking the mixed option, but the most profitable for sure is 1BTC. At the point where we are, the most likely is that the price of bitcoin will be at $150,000 or so in a year, although I suppose that the option instead of imaginary would be real, I would end up opting for the mixed option because you never know for sure what is going to happen. This way if things go wrong you wouldn't do as badly as if you had chosen the 1BTC option but if the price goes to the moon you wouldn't get as profitable either.

I mean, it still doesn't change the fact that I rather hold btc because if I am wrong then I can still keep holding btc and be 100k+ eventually. Sure if I am wrong, I could buy more than 1 btc with the 100k so that would be still bad, but its not like end of the world, I could still hold long term and get into 100k+ range eventually. But if I am right, I will have more than 100k without a doubt, and that's the reason why I would prefer BTC, because in one of them there is a long term solution to making a mistake, but in the other there is none.

I would say a better calculation is still "you are given a choice, if you pick the right one you get the keep the money, if you are wrong then the money is taken from you", if that was the question then I would seriously consider my answer, because then there is something to lose.

It actually depends on the time to have 1 BTC or 100k. If it is in the early of bullrun season, I will prefer to hold 1 BTC because it will be easily to multiply the value in few months. But if it is in bearish season, I prefer to hold 100k because it will be very helpful to help me to fulfill any daily needs. It also can be used to be the capital for investment.

Re: What would you want to have and hodl for 1 year?
It will depend on the time somebody lets me decide which I will be holding for a year.

For instance, somebody let me decide whether I will be holding 1 BTC or 100k in Cash NOW, for sure I will prefer to hold 1 BTC because of the fact that we might see the crypto market on a bull run, and potential profit would be much higher compared to just holding 100K in cash that is slowly going down in value because of inflation.

However, if somebody will let me decide whether I will be holding 1 BTC or 100k Cash after the bull run, I would obviously hold the cash. Yes, the cash goes down in value because of inflation, but Bitcoin's price goes down significantly during the bear market, and for me it's better to hold cash during that time.

I picked 1 BTC as well, but TBH, it will depend on the time. The half-half option is a safer choice, but I would want to maximize the profit at least if that's possible. :)

If I hold bitcoin for one year, it will definitely touch 159k dollars if it is possible to hold it from now until 2025. The sooner you engage in long-term holdings, the sooner you can reap the benefits. Because the Bitcoin price is poised to set record highs in this four-year halving cycle. From past halving history you can certainly learn about new bitcoin breath. Every halving bitcoin has set a new record for its price.

that is a completely different idea 💡 and it is flat out gambling.

But I have to say it is an interesting thought.

The correct choice would always be take the btc since the payout is
 0 or a btc worth more than 100k.

picking the cash the payout is
0 or exactly 100k

May as well pick the one that give more value if you win.

Usually one year after halving time bitcoin has chance for growing up with last halving edition, surely I hold for one year and getting chance to sell bitcoin above $130k and seems optimistic for one year later bitcoin hit this price. Halving is good moment for bitcoin get back to higher price but all halving edition always give positive side with bitcoin price pump drastically one year later after halving time.
I hold for one year and take benefit bitcoin raise up above $130k and its not difficult with bitcoin have reach $73k last several weeks and up to 50% above seems easy one year later.

Knowing fully well what will happen in a year time, which is the crypto bull run taking much effect, I would prefer to hodl 1 Bitcoin for a year than go for $100k cash.

My reason is that, by this time next year, it is anticipated that Bitcoin would go much higher in price than $65k it is fluctuating at. And there speculation that Bitcoin will skyrocket to a price above $150k.

I assume it would be for this year so I take the Bitcoin because of the halving, there's a big probability that the price will go up to $100k further, and if I HODL before the start of this year I already made a profit, the $100k will not gain profit but its a safe HODL if the price of Bitcoin plummet.

I'll go with 1 BTC. Having 100k and hold it for a year  it remains the same. Unlike having BTC, the price is volatile which is the reason why investing is good because we can make money by it. If we hold it for 1 year for sure we can profit or we lose some value. But one thing for sure, Bitcoin is different, the price will go further as times go by especially this year the halving is approaching.

Everyone with the way the see's the money be it bitcoin or fiat (cash)
Presenting 100k or bitcoin is like telling you to go make a replication of this money for a whole year. Meaning if you were being give money you should look for what to do to double the money some people may chose to hold bitcoin while some might chose to hold fiat just as you did now. Let us look out for some factor over here, when you are being given bitcoin to hold this means that we might be in the bull season or in the bear season since is not 4 years probably to meet up halving, or it could be that the fund was given to you within the period of halving meaning if you hold bitcoin there is every possibility to make profits. Why I will chose a physical business is that, you can do real business and multiply the money with the period of one year without you losing them instead there will be increase. but if you invest in bitcoin there is every tendency that you are going to incur lost where you can't account for the investment due to it's volatility. So I choose cash to do physical business.

Not all coins that you hold for years can provide a lot of profit, even Bitcoin cannot provide a guarantee of profit, because when you buy Bitcoin when the price is ATH and the next movement is the price collapses then you have to wait at least 4 years for the price to increase again.

Yeah, there is no guarantee that we can get a lot of profit if we hold Bitcoin for years. The only guarantee here is that your assets is 100% secured if you keep it in a right place. Since you are the owner of the key, you have the full responsibility of it or else it will risk your assets. However, if the time has come that the price of Bitcoin will go below your buying price, just don't sell it and wait until the price went higher at profit no matter how long is it because I believe in every halving phase Bitcoin will go higher.

BTC is the purest and doesn't have to be too technical, the important thing is to start and according to my assumption, despite the correction that occurs in the market, most holders are still comfortable, but if investing other than BTC may not be as comfortable as BTC.

Yes. I totally agree and BTC will run faster past the 100K price for this year. I see the proof after the ETF is approved and at least this is a strong signal that in the future BTC is a highly calculated asset with significant returns.

Why you are so confident that the price of Bitcoin will touch $159k in 2025? You can see the current drop in Bitcoin price, it is just about $61k - $65k. Bitcoin price just moved in these prices, it looked a bit difficult to increase to $70k again. Many people even doubt that the price of Bitcoin can reach $100k with this condition. It is a bit surprising that you are confident the price of Bitcoin will be $159k in the next year.

If someone have some spare to spend their daily needs and wants probably, they can hold even more than a year for any amount. Because if someone just get their investments from their salary where they usually get it later to buy things, 6 months is long enough to hold lmao. Well these are the average earners. But those who have more ways of earning, can probably hold for longer time then keep on stacking.

I believe BTC can reach $150K-$170K in this cycle, and this price zone could be reached by 2025. So, if given the choice to choose and hold, I would definitely take 1 BTC as it would generate a 50% return after 1 year, while USDT can only generate an APR of around 20% per year.

It would be better if we had the option to take $100K and invest it to buy around 1.5 BTC right now ^^

That's a logical statement, that it's time to take profit btc sir. ;D Cash is constant and can buy what you want, if some of it can be kept in fiat and not spend it of course you can buy bitkoin when the dump is maybe 1/3 of the current. it's still a long way to Q4 enjoy your day for the 2024 bitcoin journey. I think for this high price for some people is not short time, like me ;D

For me, the answer is quite simple, I would always choose BTC because I think it is superior to any other currency - and this is especially true for those currencies that are drastically losing their value. For those who have strong national currencies such as US dollars or euros, things may be a little different, but even with the insurance provided by banks in the EU, I would feel safer keeping 1 BTC in my "bank" than $100k in a traditional bank.

😂, I don't think there is anything tough here, and beside, while answering the pool, I made the wrong choice, I choose 1 BTC, I was actually going to choose $50k cash, and 0.5 BTC.

Why choose to hold $50k cash and 0.5 BTC? You may want to ask..

Well, the answer is simple, we all know that Bitcoin is a very volitile asset, which means, the price may go up, and may go down in different period inside the 1 year I am to hold, and as well, holding cash brings little to no benefit to me, in fact, I stand a chance of the cash getting devalued due to high inflation and so on, so, this makes holding bitcoin a top priority for me.
Now, why I need to hold $50k in cash, and 0.5 bitcoin is because, I need to cash to buy more bitcoin if and when the price drops, if I dca with the $50k cash, there is the possibility that by the end of the one year, I might have over 1 bitcoin, and still have some change left in cash to spend on other things while I continue to hold my over 1 bitcoin as a future investment.
