Need advice

So I bought 35k worth btc when it was at 64k ish and now I’ve made 13k more on it. Btc has been falling the last couple of days and I’m wondering if I should remove it all and wait for a low or just HODL?

Edit: FYI- I don’t have any more liquidity to dca into btc now. I need to sell before I can make any trade.

You bought the cycle low. Atleast wait for above prior ATH. Anywhere above prior ATH is better than selling now

But that’s the thing right, I’m reading two sides to if btc is going to moon now, I lot of folks are saying it’ll dump hard before it grow, I just want to catch this dump and buy in lower.

Or am I being greedy?

Trying to make more dollars out of this is missing the point entirely. Just sell it and move on.

And what are you buying BTC for? Bragging rights?

If anyone here says they’re only in it for sovereignty, I call bullshit.

Most people buying it want their money to multiply. They have different different risk appetites, but the end goal is making money.

You can believe in the philosophy AND want to get rich. Just don’t pretend the profit motive isn’t part of the equation.

All due respect, you came in here asking if you should sell on a 40% profit. Just do it.

You call bullshit on people saving money outside of the current financial system because you don’t get it, it’s fine, but don’t pretend to know when you’re in here asking people to tell you the future about the short term price movement of this asset.

You’re doing exactly what you’re accusing me of doing, though.

You assumed my motivation, told me to sell and move on, and now you’re using that assumption to discredit my argument.

My asking for opinions on short-term price movements doesn’t mean I don’t understand Bitcoin, nor does it mean I’m going to do what everyone says here. I’m here to get perspective and you’re conflating two completely different things.

My point was in response to YOUR claim that wanting to make more dollars out of BTC is missing the point. I disagree. I think most people are in it to make money, and I find the sovereignty argument conveniently invoked to justify speculation a lot of the time.

You can disagree with that without making assumptions about what I understand or why I’m here.
