Title: BUY and HODL?
Post by: Zed0X on February 01, 2019, 10:28:02 AM
People have different opinions whether the "Buy and Hodl" is really the best strategy.

Some say it is while others say it is not or it depends on the situation.

Some say it is less risky compared to short term trading while others say it more risky especially if the investors mentality is "Buy and Hope".


If you are holding right now, are you holding because you believe in the technology or are you holding because you have no choice and simply hoping the price would go up?

I have several options at once, I believe in the technology of the coins that I hold, but still I can only hope that the market will finally begin to turn and make a profit!

I've read a quiet interesting article about it last time. The problem with holding bitcoin is committing to crypto. People often forget about that btc is mostly a way of earning money, but they getting attached to them an star blindly believe in crypto. So, "Buy and Hope" is a great description of bad approach to trading.
By the way, here you have this article on Buy Coin Now (https://buycoinnow.com/blog/buy-bitcoin-when-the-price-is-low), if you want to check it

Everyone has a plan and strategy. For now, of course holding, hoping that the price will rise. If you buy at this time, you will not necessarily get a profit for the short term. But now it is indeed difficult to speculate.

I am holding, because I believe in the technology. There are new properties and functionality added, like atomic swaps, that will help to decentralize exchange. With atomic swaps you can use the blockchain only to exchange cryptocurrency, and no account creation to any exchange.

To be honest, holding for the two reasons.  ;D
It is not a wise choice to sell assets on decline cycle, it is the same like to plan getting losses. Even if there is a risk by holding, I assume it is better than selling it with inappropriate prices.

This is the way we can do today. At a low price is the opportunity to buy and hold for a year's time period. Perform long-term investments when Market is underlays and this bearish condition.

The reason I believe in the future of crypto and coin or token that I use as an investment. I am confident and ready for the risks that I will get if the coins I hold do not benefit. that's why crypto is said to be a risky investment. A strong holder is a holder who is not afraid of losses and always believes in the future.

that this concerns me, I keep my coins, because I made a purchase of many alt-coins, when the market was at the top, so there is no point in selling today, I will lose part of the money, I will have to wait)

I am holding because I trust in the future of crypto and market. If you don't trust in crypto, you won't hold assets. Most people do panicking selling yet they don't really believe in crypto market and crypto currencies.

I think both are also good things like now, for us to buy and survive in the long run is also a good thing to get a lot of profits. , because now the price of krypto is still cheap, so you will also get a lot of profits by waiting for a better price increase.

There are lots of coins that I hold. Because I believe in my instincts that the coins that I hold today are a good and profitable investment. Patience and holding are the keys to success.

There different kinds of people with different kinds of mentality and points of view on different kinds of situations, I guess
the majority of the people holding right now is the fact that there is no choice but to hold unless they want to lose a lot of
money if they sell it right now.

I personally hold some coins and tokens that I believe in its technology and also holds some coins and tokens too that I have
no choice but to hold it because of the current market situation. :)

Crypto technology which is currently widely adopted by several gaming companies makes me hold back the coins that I have, I still believe this technological progress makes everyone happy because it can easily make payment transactions

buying and hodl is not the best strategy. for now. many of us sell coins today. because they know, right now, it's not a good time for hodl tokens or coins.

I've heard about atomic swaps way back and the technology is indeed interesting and I am also looking forward to how this tech will change crypto trading and payment.

buying and hodl is a good strategy for now. because the price is down, it's good to buy it. You can get altcoins at low prices. and you hold it until the price goes up.

It is a combination of both. There are tokens that I hold even if the value is currently down because I know it will take a longer time before it gains traction. There are also tokens that I just leave because I don't want to bother selling because it's not worth the time. I would rather wait and hope that someone will just pump them.

Many are stuck with bag holding because of this long bear market. There are coins that I wanted to sell but cannot because it's just too low. I won't mind holding it for another year and hope something good happens with it.

This is the best situation to buy more best altcoins or bitcoin  therefore buy and hold is good strategy for the good returns I believe the technology and I believe the better future so definitely cryptomarket will recover again so just buy and hold it .
