Title: Bitcoin Hold Or Spend ?
Post by: bosshyip on July 04, 2018, 06:29:31 PM
A currency derived its value mainly in its acceptability and ability to transfer. It acting as a store of value works exactly contradictory to this. Sure it can hold value but that value ultimately exists because someone will accept it for goods some day aka transfer it, not for any other “useful reason.”

If no one spends a currency, it’s acceptability goes down. Currency is meant to be spent, spend it. Plain and simple.

Yes, you are right, storage is only part of what creates a shortage of coins in the market and a rise in the price of Bitcoin, but the true value is given by the community that stores it, uses it as money, when purchases are made and exchanged with friends. Like any money, Bitcoin must be in constant turnover in order to be called money and it is natural that it should be spent and earned.

Well, bitcoin needs to be spent and one can hold part of it for future profit taking. What is the essence of having money and not be used?

Bitcoin is a unique phenomenon, that has made an incredible way full of ups and downs, proving that it is an amazing invention that can totally change our ideas about possibilities of financial world. And ever since Bitcoin started to gain trust of millions of people and become more and more widespread, two contradicting groups exist in cryptoworld — those who think that Bitcoin’s mission is to dislodge fiat money and bring people financial freedom, and those who declare that digital coins are a form of an asset and they must not be used as a currency.

Selling bitcoin is always depend on the price status and maybe the needs of the holder. I believe that selling btc in a verry low price is just a loss so we need to hold it until the time comes that it's price rise so that we can earn a huge amount of profit.

I think we need to hold. Because the price is really cheap, this is now the very best thing to do. If we are going to sell and the price will rise we can maybe have a big loss. But i think we cannot blame our self because we are all have needs and we need to provide our needs for good.

That depends on the situation for me. I will never spend my bitcoin knowing that it can still rise or grow. I will just spend my bitcoin if I already receive a profit from it and when the price is high.

If we look forward of bitcoin as the main source of crypto, I think we should hold than sell.  we can also try to sell and buy it back again in due time for the future preparation.

I will hold it if the price of bitcoin is still below. but after moving well, I will sell it. but my advice, don't wait for the price of bitcoin to peak like the previous year. because it is feared the price will go back down and you have to wait for more time to wait for it to rise.

Although it is always good to buy and hodl when the value is low, however it’s always a decision to take by an individual based on his own analysis. For instance if you’ve already made some profit out of it then you can decide to spend and even reinvest again if it drop lower.

Actually, bitcoin is made not for the purpose of investment only but as a digital currency that can be used as replacement of money or fiat, which is use to buy commodities and pay services. If everyone HODL, I think there'll be no price movement in the market. For me if its better to spend some of my holdings to keep the market going. If all bitcoin users would spend a part of their holdings, I think market price will continuously grow and everyone can enjoy its benefits and the good profits of their investments.

Bitcoin would eventually be use as a currency as what you describe or else it would just dwindle down and lose its value. For now, it is more use as an asset because of the likelihood for it to rise in value in the coming years but if it continue like this wherein its mere use is for trading only then it would just be replaceable by other coins. Bitcoin needs mass adoption for it to continue being the king of cryptocurrency and be use for its actual use case.

I think we will hold it back by waiting for higher prices, so we will also get more profits, because now is the right time for us to buy more bitcoin, because now we see the market prices also drop, so we will hold bitcoin in long-term.

If I have some bitcoins in hand. I would spend 30-40 percent of it to buy the needs of my family or invest on other coins. Its better to use or spend it to normalize the market situation. If everyone spend some of their coins and some people are also buying coins then, prices will drastically go high.

Depending on where you are, where you buy Bitcoin at 5000 USD.
Then the Bitcoin drops to 4000 USD so you HODL, if the Bitcoin goes up to 7000 USD then you sell to get profit.

Are there other options besides holding the current coin? I don't think so, we have no choice but to hold the coin. Well, throwing coins at this time is too risky because we will be harmed. So, be patient to wait for the market to return to the bull run and prices return high.
