Bitcoin and cryptos are here to stay. Where the prices will go - we'll have to wait and see. But the way I see it in the longterm - it will only go up.
You HODLer. 😀"Everything" goes up - it's called INFLATION. 😝

Can you blame him?
I'd HODL some too.
Just enough that it doesn't hurt much if/when it crashes.
And at the same to a good enough number so that it can bring in a handsome profit if it ever blows up like it did last December.
Accept the loss as experience

1. "I [would] HODL some too." Do you HODL or not? You either DO or you DON'T.
2. Fine if you HODL, but don't be an investor that "diversifies":
“Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.”
- Warren Buffet
"The most successful investors don't diversify. Rather, they FOCUS and specialize. They get to know the investment category they invest in and how the business works better than anyone else."
- Robert Kiyosaki

I don't see any issue with trading crypto currencies that have a fixed supply. It's better long term(store of value) than holding fiat that slowly inflates.
Be humble

I think, investing on crypto with a long term view (like couple of years) would be much profitable than trading!
keeping patience.......

I theory that makes sense but crypto is not a mature market. It is stull developing. It could be banned or regulated or there could be some huge theft of funds that drives away investors. These things could all mean that crypto like Bitcoin could go from $6000 to $0

"Fixed" supply you say? I do not agree: supply can be manipulated as easily as IP addresses were increased from IPV4 to IPV6 (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address).
Anything in a computer can be manipulated. Only physical assets (eg. gold, silver) cannot be.

I would have forgotten about cryptocurrencies. They have already reached their peak. It is time to return to trading with conventional currencies. 😄

Actually, trading with the major FX currency is the best practice! But, I like invest my money on Crypto instead of trading.

When the BTC price was stable around 6,500 there was not much to trade.
Nowadays market are crazy, just check XRP - new favourite for investors.
may overcome BTC one day.

I see, now the price is only 4.5K! Really horrible! Don’t know where is the bottom-line.

I never bought into the crypto hype. As they say, "if it sounds too good to be true, it ptobably is."
As with any ponzi scheme (BitCoin, ICO, or HYIP) the gains are only good in the beginning - but take your money and run before you get "left holding the bag".
